Patent number: 7152301Abstract: A method for winding a stator of a multi-phase motor includes successively winding each of a plurality of teeth on the stator with a continuous winding wire to connect each of the phases in the motor together. The wound wire is disconnected between any two phases where respective ends of the two phases connected by the winding wire are not neutral ends. A jumper wire is connected between a neutral end of any one of the phases to a neutral end of at least one other phase if the neutral end of any one of the phases is not connected to the neutral end of at least one other phase by the winding wire.Type: GrantFiled: June 30, 2005Date of Patent: December 26, 2006Assignee: Pacsci Motion Control, Inc.Inventor: Gregory Rittmeyer

Patent number: 6705581Abstract: Apparatus for mounting an electric motor, which is adapted to drive an endless belt at a predetermined tension, to a stationary frame, includes a housing that is adapted to receive the motor. A drive shaft extends from the front end of the housing and is adapted to drive the belt. An elongated base mount is integrally formed on the outside surface of the housing and extends from the front of the housing for pivotally coupling the housing to the stationary frame. The base mount has a first end and a second end, and a bore which extends longitudinally at least partially through the base mount from the first end and the second end of the base mount. A substantially rigid tab is fixedly attached to the cylindrical housing at a substantially opposite side from the base mount. The tension on the belt is set by applying a biasing force on the tab to pivot the motor about the axis of the base mount.Type: GrantFiled: May 26, 2001Date of Patent: March 16, 2004Assignee: PacSci Motion Control, Inc.Inventors: Bradley A.

Patent number: 6433536Abstract: The present invention is an apparatus for indicating the instantaneous position of a movable member along a range of motion with respect to a reference position. The apparatus includes a magnetic body that is fixedly attached to the movable member. The body has a contoured surface to control the shape of a magnetic field relative to position, and further includes at least two magnetic field sensors. Each of the sensors is disposed adjacent to the contoured surface of the magnetic body and fixed with respect to the reference position, and is positioned apart from the other sensors, so as to form a non-uniform gap between the contoured surface and each of the magnetic field sensors. Each of the sensors produces a position dependent signal corresponding to a value of the magnetic field. The apparatus further includes a decoding circuit electrically coupled to each of the magnetic field sensors so as to receive each of the position dependent signals.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 1998Date of Patent: August 13, 2002Assignee: Pacsci Motion Control, Inc.Inventors: George B. Yundt, Bradley A. Trago, Robert E. Lordo, Harry B. Behm

Publication number: 20010048264Abstract: A stator lamination (20) for forming a stator assembly (82) of a permanent magnet motor (80) includes a yoke region (23) and a plurality of stator poles (22) spaced along and extending inwardly from the yoke region. The stator poles (22) are configured and arranged to define a slot (28) having a predetermined span (30) between the lateral end surfaces of adjacent stator poles. A plurality of teeth (24) are formed on the distal ends of each of the stator poles (22), and are separated from each other by a notch (26). The teeth (24) are equi-spaced and the number of notches (26) is an even number.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 1, 2001Publication date: December 6, 2001Applicant: PacSci Motion Control, Inc.Inventors: Bradley A.
