  • Publication number: 20130049489
    Abstract: A mover for a linear motor includes an armature having a plurality of teeth arranged along a line and wound with coils. The mover further includes a main-pole magnet array arranged at a side of the armature at which the teeth exist. The main-pole magnet array includes a plurality of main-pole magnets with different polarities alternately arranged along an arranging direction of the teeth. The mover further includes at least one auxiliary-pole magnet arranged adjacent to one end or both ends of the main-pole magnet array.

  • Patent number: 8384251
    Abstract: A linear and curvilinear motor system includes: linear and curvilinear guiding devices movably guiding and respectively supporting right and left of a slider, each having a guide rail configured by linear tracks and a circular arc track and slider blocks; a motor unit having a stator with a stator linear section and a stator circular arc section and a mover with a linear section and provided for the slider and away from the stator with a gap interposed therebetween; and an encoder head and a hole sensor detecting positions of the linear tracks and the circular arc track. When a magnetic pole pitch of the linear section of the stator is a distance ?m and a magnetic pole pitch of the circular arc section of the stator is an angle ?m, a radius r of the circular arc track at the position detection point is defined as r=?m/?m.

  • Patent number: 8174173
    Abstract: A rotating electric machine includes a rotor, a stator and a load side bracket. The rotor has an outer rotor surface around a rotational axis. The stator is provided to surround the outer rotor surface. The stator includes a stator core and a stator coil. The stator core has teeth. Each of the teeth is inserted in the stator coil. The stator coil includes a coil end which is provided on a load side of the stator. The stator coil has an inner coil surface facing the teeth, an outer coil surface which is a reverse side of the inner coil surface. One end and another end of the wire are formed on the outer coil surface. The load side bracket has a groove in which the coil end is provided.

  • Publication number: 20110254385
    Abstract: A direct acting rotation actuator includes a motor unit, an output shaft, a detector unit, and a bearing portion. The motor unit includes a field magnet portion which includes a permanent magnet or a core tooth, a first armature winding which generates a rotation magnetic field in the rotation direction, and a second armature winding which generates a traveling magnetic field in the direct acting direction. The output shaft is attached to the field magnet portion of the motor unit. The detector unit includes a direct acting detector and a rotation detector respectively detecting a position in the direct acting direction and an angle in the rotation direction of the output shaft. The bearing portion includes a direct acting bearing and a rotation bearing respectively supporting the output shaft in the direct acting direction and the rotation direction. The motor unit is disposed on an anti-load side of the output shaft, and the detector unit is disposed on a load side of the output shaft.
