A motor includes a tubular housing having flat side walls along each side of rectangular joined with each other by joining sections, a magnet, having magnet poles in the jointing section, disposed along the inner peripheral surfaces of the housing, a shaft inserted along the axis of the housing, an armature fixed to the shaft in such a position as to be opposite to the magnet, a commutator mounted on the shaft, a carbon brush in sliding contact with the outer peripheral surface of the commutator, and electrical components provided within the housing. The electrical components in the longer direction are arranged nonparallely with all the sides of the housing.
Abstract:
The motor of an anti-lock braking system comprises a stator having six stator poles and a rotor with a rotor core having nine teeth. The rotor is rotatably mounted to the stator with the rotor core confronting the stator poles. Rotor windings are wound about the teeth and electrically connect to a commutator fixed to a rotor shaft. A bearing is fixed onto one end of the rotor shaft. Pump pistons radially attach to the bearing. The mechanical centreline of the bearing is offset from the rotational axis of the rotor shaft so that the pistons are driven by the bearing when the rotor turns. The windings comprise a plurality of concentrated coils so that the coils do not overlap with each other. The axial length of the motor is thus reduced.
Abstract:
An electric motor with a small diameter can be provided with a stator with a comparatively small radial thickness which has the material volume required to conduct the magnetic flux. To this end, an electric motor (1) with a stator (3), has a laminated core (8) and a number of permanent magnets (6) and a rotor (2), which co-operates with the stator (3) and can rotate about a rotational axis (5). The stator (3) has a number of flux propagation elements (31), which together with the laminated core (8) are designed to conduct the magnetic flux and whose axial length (32) is greater than the axial length (4) of the laminated core (8).

A housing assembly 30 is provided for a permanent magnet motor. The housing assembly includes a ferrous flux ring structure 38 having an exterior 39 and an interior 36. Magnet structure 34 is carried within the interior of the flux ring structure 38. A plastic housing 32 substantially encapsulates the exterior of the flux ring structure 38 and at least portions of the magnet structure 34. A bearing 42 may be provided in a closed end of the housing 32.
Abstract:
In a method of manufacturing a rotor of a rotary electric machine, a rotor core is formed by preparing a material sheet in a form of a belt. The material sheet has teeth extending from a first side of a middle portion of the material sheet and projections projecting from a second side of the middle portion in a direction opposite to the teeth. The projections define recesses therebetween. Each projection and each recess has substantially the same dimension with respect to a centerline between a first line passing through tops of the projections and a second line passing through bottoms of the recesses. The material sheet is helically wound so that the projections are located on an inner diameter side of a rotor core.
Abstract:
Provided is an magnetic field modifying assembly (10) for an electric machine (18) having a stator (24) arranged to generate a primary magnetic field, and a rotor (30) arranged to interact with the primary magnetic field generated by the stator and be movable relative to the stator. The assembly comprising an auxiliary magnetic field generating magnets (14) arranged to be adjustably positionable relative to the stator to generate an auxiliary magnetic field to modify the primary magnetic field to thereby cause the armature member interacting with the modified magnetic field to operate at a targeted output characteristic.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for fixing permanent magnets inside the cylinder head of a field winding of an electric engine. The inventive device comprises spring clips (12) which are disposed between the permanent magnets in order to ensure the angular positioning and the axial and radial support of said magnets against the inner wall of the head. The end of each clip (12) which first penetrates the head when the permanent magnets are being inserted, comprises means for axially sliding on the inner cylindrical wall of the head, while preventing any contact with an end edge of the clip. Moreover, the clip is set apart from the head by means of at least one boss (17) which is provided on the core (16), and said boss is in turn set back from the edge and disposed between two fins (14) for the axial locking of the magnets.
Abstract:
A stator of a direct current motor includes six magnetic poles. An armature of the direct current motor includes an armature core having eight slots, a plurality of windings wound around the armature core as concentrated windings, and a commutator having twenty-four segments connected to the windings. The plurality of windings are connected to one another to form a single closed loop. The direct current motor further includes an anode power supply brush and a cathode power supply brush that slidably contact the segments. The aspect ratio, which is the ratio of the diameter of the armature core with respect to the length in the axial direction of the armature core is set to a range of 3.2 through 5.6. This increases the constraint torque/mass ratio of the direct current motor.
