    摘要: The present invention relates to a slotless motor including a thin-walled hollow rotor body 100, and methods of manufacture of such rotors, the methods including hot forming and machining steps. The rotor body has a rotational axis 102 and comprises a first cylindrical portion 104 having a first diameter, a second cylindrical portion 106 having a second diameter, larger than the first diameter and a third cylindrical portion 108 having a third diameter, smaller than the second diameter, the third cylindrical portion located at a second end of the rotor body 100. A first end cap 110 joins the first and second cylindrical portions together, and a second end cap 112 joins the first and second cylindrical portions together. The first, second and third cylindrical portions are all arranged coaxially with the rotational axis 102 of the rotor 100 such that the second cylindrical portion 108 and the first and second end caps collectively define a hollow cavity 114 in the rotor body 100. The rotor body 100 may be provided with a Halbach array.

    摘要: A rotor for an electric machine is disclosed herein. The rotor comprises: a central shaft; a rotor drum arranged radially outward of the central shaft, wherein the rotor drum comprises a hollow cylinder for carrying permanent magnets on an inner and/or outer surface of the hollow cylinder, and wherein the rotor drum is coaxial with both the central shaft and a rotational axis of the rotor; and a cap arranged to couple the central shaft to the rotor drum to enable the rotor drum and central shaft to rotate together about the rotational axis. An inner portion of the cap is coupled to the central shaft at a first position along the length of the rotational axis, and an outer portion of the cap is coupled to the rotor drum at a second position along the length of the rotational axis. The first position is at a different length along the rotational axis to the second position.

    摘要: A motor includes a rotor magnet, a stator, and a magnetic sensor. The rotor magnet includes magnetized portions in a Halbach array, and having radially magnetized portions whose magnetization direction is a radial direction and non-radially magnetized portions. In first and second radially magnetized portions, magnetic poles on both sides in the radial direction are arranged opposite to magnetic poles on both sides in the radial direction of the first radially magnetized portion. The first and second radially magnetized portions are alternately arranged along a circumferential direction with at least one non-radially magnetized portion therebetween. The magnetic sensor is located on the other side in the radial direction with respect to the rotor magnet. A non-magnetized portion is in an axial portion of the rotor magnet where a magnetic field is detected by the magnetic sensor, and located between the first and second radially magnetized portions in the circumferential direction.

    摘要: The invention relates to a non-cogging electric generator having at least one stator and at least one dual rotor, wherein the dual rotor comprises a plurality of primary magnet devices arranged in circular Halbach array. Non-cogging is achieved by having inner and outer rotor rotating synchronously. Concentration of magnetic flux is achieved by magnetic devices tapering into pyramidal shape, such that magnetic devices arranged on the inner rotor are facing magnetic devices on the outer rotor, whereas said magnetic devices are facing each other with the opposite polarity. Stator comprises electrical wire windings and is positioned between inner and outer rotor.

    摘要: The invention relates to a synchronous machine which is excited by permanent magnets and has a stator (2) and a rotor (1) which rotates adjacent to the stator (2) about a longitudinal axis (3). The rotor (1) comprises a number of surface magnets which are disposed along the circumference of the rotor (1). The surface magnets are designed as Halbach arrays (4), each of which comprises tangential segments (PM1, PM4, PM5, PM8), in which the magnetisation direction (M) is oriented predominantly in the circumferential direction, and normal segments (PM2, PM3, PM6, PM7), in which the magnetisation direction (M) is oriented predominantly in the radial direction or counter to the radial direction, and in the field of the stator (2) the tangential segments (PM1, PM14, PM5, PM8) are subjected to a radially inwardly directed force (−Fn) and the normal segments (PM2, PM3, PM6, PM7) are subjected to a radially outwardly directed force (+Fn). According to the invention, the tangential segments (PM1, PM4, PM5, PM8) and the normal segments (PM2, PM3, PM6, PM7) are shaped in such a way that, by form fitting, the tangential segments (PM1, PM4, PM5, PM8) partially compensate for the forces directed radially outwards onto the normal segments (PM2, PM3, PM6, PM7) by means of the forces directed radially inwards onto the tangential segments (PM1, PM4, PM5, PM8).
