Abstract: A 10-pole 12-slot permanent magnet synchronous motor comprises a plurality of teeth. From among two adjacent teeth around which coils of the same phase are wound adjacent to each other, the rotational direction width of a winding portion of a first tooth placed in front along a rotational direction of a rotor is set narrower than that of a winding portion of a second tooth placed behind along the rotational direction of the rotor. With this configuration, the circumferential length of the coil wound around the first tooth can be shortened with suppressing increase in iron loss in the winding portion of the first tooth.

Abstract: In a permanent-magnet-embedded electric motor, at the distal ends of base sections of teeth sections of a stator core, increased magnetic-resistance sections, which have magnetic resistance larger than magnetic resistance of the base sections, are provided. Given that a minimum interval in the circumferential direction between the base sections adjacent to each other is represented as La, an interval of a minimum gap between the teeth sections adjacent to each other is represented as Lb, and an interval of a gap between a rotor and a stator is represented as Lg, a relation of La>2Lg>Lb holds. Due to such a configuration, it is possible to provide the electric motor that does not spoil a magnetic characteristic of the rotor and that is excellent in a demagnetization characteristic.

Abstract: A two-phase switched reluctance machine is provided using discontinuous core structures as the stator for low-cost, high-performance drives. This discontinuous stator core structure contains short flux paths and maximum overlap between the rotor poles and stator poles in the stator discontinuous core structures, regardless of the rotor position. Example configurations of such core structure include E-core, L-core and I-core configurations. Using less steel and magnet wire than in conventional SRM designs results in cost savings of stator material and winding material. Efficiency of this novel SRM is improved because of shorter flux paths resulting in reduction of core losses and decreased phase resistance resulting in reduction of copper losses. Two-phase simultaneous excitation of the novel SRM can reduce torque ripple during commutation as compared with existing two-phase SRMs.

Individual cogging torque waveforms in the electrical machine may be evenly distributed across one-sixth of a voltage phase or other suitable spacing, resulting in a reduced magnitude and/or increased sinusoidality of the overall cogging torque waveform for the electrical machine.

Abstract: A specific force capacity thrust bearing and a method for producing such a design for a particular application are disclosed. The magnetic flux density in the stator material is maximized by varying cross-sectional area normal to the flux path. After a set of initial parameters are chosen, the design can be improved upon by changing the design variables and then verifying the force capacity using a finite element program. By linking the finite element program to a model of the geometry and using some basic algorithms, it is possible to automatically iterate until an optimal design is reached. The resulting design has a much higher force capacity than designs typical of the prior art.

Abstract: A servovalve torque motor includes first and second pole pieces and an armature. Each of the first and second pole pieces includes an armature face that opposes the armature. The area of the armature face of the second pole piece is smaller than the area of the armature face of the first pole piece. The unequal areas of the first and second armature faces create a bias in the servovalve torque motor while allowing the first and second pole pieces to be disposed at equal distances from the armature to define substantially equal air gaps. The inclusion of substantially equal air gaps between the pole pieces and the armature reduces the maximum flux in the armature for the same bias and torque output, compared to conventional servovalve torque motors. The reduction in maximum armature flux decreases armature saturation and improves linearity during operation.
