Abstract: In a motor driven by a drive circuit such as an inverter, there is a problem that electric current flowing through a bearing causes electric corrosion, which impairs the durability of the bearing. A motor of the invention includes: a stator in which a winding is applied through an insulating part to a stator core formed by laminating a predetermined number of electromagnetic steel plates which have been punched into a predetermined shape; a rotor assembly in which a rotor and bearings and formed by rolling bearings are fitted to a shaft; a printed wiring board which is arranged at an end part of the stator in an axial direction and to which a drive circuit is mounted; a bracket imposed to at least the end part of the stator in the axial direction to which the printed wiring board is arranged; and a conductive sheet provided between the printed wiring board and the bracket.

Abstract: A dual magnetic phase stator lamination for use in stator permanent magnet electric machines is disclosed. The permanent magnet electrical machine includes a rotor mounted for rotation about a central axis and a stator positioned about the rotor and comprising a plurality of stator laminations, wherein each of the stator laminations is composed of a dual magnetic phase material and includes a first stator lamination portion comprising a magnetic material and a second stator lamination portion comprising a non-magnetic material, the second stator lamination portion comprising an area positioned adjacent to each of a plurality of permanent magnets embedded in the stator lamination. The second stator lamination portion comprises a heat treated portion of the stator lamination, with the heat treating of the second stator lamination portion rendering the dual magnetic phase material of the stator lamination non-magnetic at the locations of the second stator lamination portion.

Abstract: An automatic wheel-driven generating device mainly includes a base fixedly mounted on a wheel around an axle thereof and provided with a centered hollow column and one or more radially extended hollow pipes for each receiving a light-emitting element therein; a winding reel enclosed between left and right magnetic poles and fixedly mounted on the hollow column; and a magnet holder having a cap screwed into a center thereof and being fixedly mounted on the axle. The magnet holder carries magnets and is associated with the winding reel and the magnetic poles without contact with them. When the wheel rotates, the winding reel and the magnetic poles on the base rotate along with the wheel relative to the magnet holder that is unmovably fixed on the axle, so that an induced current is produced to drive the light-emitting elements to emit light beams.
