Abstract:
The present invention discloses a reciprocating compressor which can linearly reciprocate a piston (6) inside a cylinder (4) as a linear motor (10) is driven, compress a refrigerant by sucking the refrigerant into a compression space (P) between the cylinder (4) and the piston (6), and then discharge the same. In the reciprocating compressor, the piston is operated at a top dead center position and in a resonance state by symmetrically applying a voltage even if load is varied, the elastic coefficient of the mechanical spring (8a) is set in consideration of the degree of shift of the piston (6) influenced by the gas springs varied by load, and the initial value of the piston (6) for maintaining the stroke (S) of the piston is set so as to correspond to a required cooling capacity condition. Accordingly, electric power consumption caused by applying an asymmetrical voltage can be reduced, a tuning operation for applying an asymmetrical voltage can be omitted, thereby decreasing inconvenience. Further, the piston (6) is operated at the top dead center position and in the resonance state under all load conditions, thereby further increasing operation frequency.

An apparatus (1000) includes an electrical device (1004) and a latching micromagnetic switch (1002) that controls energy flow through the electrical device (1004). The latching micromagnetic switch (1002) includes a cantilever, a permanent magnet, and a coil configured to latch the latching micromagnetic switch (1002) in one of two positions each time energy passes through the coil. The electrical device (1004) and the latching micromagnetic (1002) switch can be integrated on a same substrate. Otherwise, the electrical device (1004) and the latching micromagnetic switch (1002) can be located on separate substrates and coupled together. The electrical device (1004) can be a circuit, a filter, an antenna, a transceiver, or the like.
Abstract:
A high pressure pump including a linear actuator comprising a servo motor adapted to axially rotate a hollow rotor shaft (15) in alternating directions, the servo motor having a stator (19) positioned co-axially around the hollow rotor shaft (15) with an interior of the rotor shaft (15) being co-axially coupled to a drive member (30) to convert axial rotation into reciprocal displacement, the drive member (30) being constrained against linear movement and threadingly supporting a shaft (31) to impart linear displacement of the shaft (31) and an encoder (80) monitoring movement of the drive member. At least one piston (50, 51) is coupled to the shaft (31) and the piston (50, 51) is arranged within a cylinder (55) to define a pumping chamber (59), whereby alternating rotation of the rotor shaft (15) causes reciprocal linear displacement of the piston (50, 51) to pressurise fluid in the pumping chamber (59). A drive mechanism is also disclosed and includes a controller (81) coupled to a servomotor and an encoder (80) to measure movement of the hollow rotor or output shaft and send a feedback signal proportional to the movement to the controller.

Abstract:
An electric motor having a pancake construction stator and rotor poles that are formed by photolithography. The stator (22) and rotor (22) can be formed from an amorphous material, thereby reducing grain boundaries and allowing smaller poles to be etched. The extremely thin rotor comprises a flexible disk spaced from the stator by an air cushion maintained in accordance with forces as dictated by Bernoulli's principle.
Abstract:
A compact miniature motor includes a DC motor (10), a worm gear (32), a pinion transfer gear (34), at least one cluster gear (48), an output gear (56), and an output shaft (52). The gears form a gear train that wraps tightly around the DC motor (10) in the shape of a capital letter J. Inverted trunnions (40, 42) stabilize the pinion transfer gear by extending longitudinally inside thereof. Acoustical chambers (70) packed with grease suppress noise generated by the gear train. A PC board (22) is also provided and has components for rectifying, filtering for constant DC, and modifying AC voltage before passing it to energize the DC motor (10). The output shaft (52) may drive either an ice crusher in a refrigerator or a product mover for beverage cans inside a vending machine or another type of electromechanical unit requiring application of high torque.
