    Abstract: A starter includes a three-phase switched reluctance electric motor including a rotor and a stator, a pinion gear, a power inverter that is connected to the stator, and a rotational position sensor. The rotor includes a quantity of rotor poles that is between 6 and 16, and the stator includes a quantity of stator poles that is between 8 and 24. An outer diameter of the electric motor is less than 85 mm. An active length of the motor is less than 50 mm. An airgap distance between the rotor and the stator is between 0.1 mm and 0.5 mm. A ratio between a rotor pole arc and a stator pole arc is at least 1.0:1. A ratio between a stator diameter and a rotor diameter is at least 2.0:1, and a ratio between a stator pole height and a rotor pole height is at least 2.5:1.

    Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator core defining a number of stator slots (S) extending along a longitudinal axis and angularly spaced about the longitudinal axis. The machine includes a rotor assembly rotatable relative to the stator core and defining first and second ends. The rotor assembly includes a plurality of laminations stacked between the first and second ends. Each respective one of the plurality of laminations defines a number of rotor slots (R) positioned along an outer periphery. A stator slot pitch is defined as 360 divided by the number of stator slots (S). A rotor slot pitch is defined as 360 divided by the number of rotor slots (R) in each respective one of the plurality of laminations. The laminations are skewed relative to each other. An optimal rotor skew angle is determined by the greater of the stator slot pitch and rotor slot pitch.

    Abstract: An electric motor includes a rotor having a stack of laminations positioned axially relative to one another. The stack of laminations includes a first rotor lamination that is divided into a first portion and a second portion. The first rotor lamination is configured to have an asymmetric mass distribution such that the first portion has a first mass and the second portion has a second mass, with the first mass being different from the second mass. The electric motor is configured to selectively generate an unbalanced force during operation (i.e., when the rotor is spinning). The electric motor may include a stator configured to have an asymmetric magnetic field distribution. The electric motor may be employed in a haptic assembly and eliminates the need for a separate eccentric mass to generate a haptic signal.

    Abstract: An electric machine assembly includes a stator core, a rotor assembly and a controller. The stator core defines a number of stator slots extending along a longitudinal axis and angularly spaced about the longitudinal axis. The rotor assembly is rotatable relative to the stator core and includes a plurality of laminations stacked between first and second ends of the rotor assembly. The laminations are skewed relative to each other. Each respective one of the plurality of laminations defines a number of rotor slots positioned along an outer periphery. The controller includes a processor and tangible, non-transitory memory on which is recorded instructions for executing a method of obtaining an optimal rotor skew angle. The optimum rotor skew angle is selected from a set (SK) of skew angles between first and second skew angles (SK1≦SK≦SK2).

    Abstract: A method for providing consistent actuator events for each of a plurality of consecutive actuator events of an electromagnetic actuator, includes applying a first bi-directional current waveform for a first actuator event and applying a second bi-directional current waveform for a second actuator event immediately subsequent to the first actuator event. The first bi-directional current waveform includes applying current in a first direction when the actuator is commanded to an actuated position and applying current in a reversed second direction when the actuator is commanded to a rest position. The second bi-directional current waveform includes applying current in the reversed second direction when the actuator is commanded to an actuated position and applying current in the first direction when the actuator is commanded to a rest position.
