Abstract: A brushless permanent-magnet motor includes a rotor, a magnet set mounted at the rotor, a stator coaxially surrounding the magnet set in a coaxial manner relative to the rotor, and a bushing set between the magnet set and the stator in a coaxial manner relative to the rotor and the stator. The stator has a plurality of teeth spaced around the inner perimeter thereof and a retaining crevice defined between the distal front end portions of each two adjacent teeth remote from the inner perimeter. The bushing has a plurality of locating ribs respectively engaged into the retaining crevices of the stator. Thus, the brushless permanent-magnet motor has a high level of structural stability, and can effectively reduce the air-gap flux density variation and instant cogging torque and torque ripples and solve vibration and noise problems.
Abstract: A stator includes: a stator core having an almost annular outer core and an inner core arranged inside the outer core; and a bobbin having a cylindrical body part around which a winding wire is wound and a flange part that is formed so as to rise up from the cylindrical body part, with a plurality of bent parts and an edge part.
Abstract: An electric machine and stator assembly are provided that include a continuous stator portion having stator teeth, and a tooth tip portion including tooth tips corresponding to the stator teeth of the continuous stator portion, respectively. The tooth tip portion is mounted onto the continuous stator portion.

Abstract: A magnetic-pole portion can be formed by thread cutting, whereby a motor can be provided at lower cost as compared to a case where the magnetic-pole portion is formed by press-working.
Abstract: A stator for an electric machine, having compacted and bonded windings and a ferromagnetic core including an active element and a cooling element. The compacted and bonded windings are inserted in slots between teeth in the active element, and the cooling element mates with the active element at the tips of the teeth to close the slots over the windings.
