  • Permanent magnet motor
    Patent number: 4358693
    Abstract: A magnetic motor has K stators (K=any integer) and preferably K+1 rotors with each stator having 4n electromagnetic coils (n=any integer), and each coacting rotor has p=3/2n permanent magnets with their poles alternating in polarity. The coils on each stator are arranged in two sets, and a distributor cycles current to the sets so that each set reverses polarity each successive time it is charged.
