  • Publication number: 20210107615
    Abstract: A steering gear for a boat includes a steering mechanism that moves a rudder, and a driving source. The steering mechanism has: a housing that is fixed to a hull; an output shaft that is rotatably supported by the housing; a first conversion mechanism that is provided inside the housing and converts power from the driving source into rotation of the output shaft; and a second conversion mechanism that is provided outside the housing and converts rotation of the output shaft into motion of the rudder.

  • Patent number: 10804776
    Abstract: An injection molding device includes: a lower die that supports a rotor core; an intermediate die including a magnetizing mechanism; and an upper die including an injection die having a gate formed therein through which a molten bonded-magnet material supplied from a supply source is injected into a magnet insertion hole in the rotor core. The injection die has a cylindrical protruding portion at an end surface of which the gate is open. In the protruding portion, a magnetic-flux applying member containing ferromagnetic material is embedded with its side surface exposed at an outer peripheral surface of the protruding portion. The magnetizing mechanism is formed in an annular shape that can accommodate, inside its inner periphery, the rotor core and a distal end portion of the protruding portion by disposing yokes and permanent magnets alternately in the circumferential direction. Magnetic-path surfaces of the yokes radially face the side surface.

  • Patent number: 10199911
    Abstract: An orientation magnetization device includes plural orientation magnetization yokes and plural orientation magnetization magnets, and molds field magnets while a rotor core is disposed in a magnetic circuit that is formed by assembling the orientation magnetization yokes and the orientation magnetization magnets into an annular shape. When the rotor core is disposed in the magnetic circuit, protruding portions are disposed at portions of the respective orientation magnetization yokes facing the rotor core. Auxiliary magnets are disposed in gaps between the respective orientation magnetization magnets and the rotor core, on opposite sides of each protruding portion in a circumferential direction of the orientation magnetization device. Each protruding portion and each auxiliary magnet extend in an axial direction of the orientation magnetization device, and are skewed with respect to the axial direction of the orientation magnetization device.

  • Publication number: 20170244293
    Abstract: A rotor includes a core and permanent magnets. Each permanent magnet is embedded in the core. Each permanent magnet forming one of the magnetic poles of the rotor includes a first portion and a second portion. The first and second portions and extend inward in a radial direction Dr and also extend away from a stator-facing surface of the rotor 10 in an axial direction Da. Regions of the first and second portions and away from the stator-facing surface are connected to a bottom. An inner peripheral surface of the first portion, an inner peripheral surface of the second portion, and an inner peripheral surface of the bottom form one of the magnetic poles of the rotor.

  • Patent number: 9731636
    Abstract: In a vehicle seat including a first member and a second member allowed to turn relative to the first member to thereby shift between a first state in which the second member faces the first member and a second state in which the second member is farther from the first member than in the first state, a first electric device is provided in the first member, a second electric device is provided in the second member, a first electric wire is connected to the first electric device, a second electric wire is connected to the second electric device, and a tying part is provided which ties the first electric wire and the second electric wire together into a bundle. The tying part is fixed to the first member.

  • Publication number: 20170187255
    Abstract: An object is to provide an interior permanent magnet rotor unit that allows possible demagnetization to be suppressed regardless of a material for a portion of a permanent magnet, which is positioned on an outward side in a radial direction of a core. A core is a laminate of first thin-plate-like members and second thin-plate-like members. The first thin-plate-like members and the second thin-plate-like members have first insertion slots and second insertion slots each of which is filled with a permanent magnet. In the first thin-plate-like members, a separating portion is formed at an end of each of the first insertion slots or the second insertion slots, which end is located on an outward side of the insertion slot in a radial direction, to form a slit in the corresponding permanent magnet.
