Abstract: The device comprises a single circular row of permanent magnetic poles and a circular row of electromagnets, magnetic-force-conducting elements of which have central polar part and two lateral polar parts connected to the central polar part and spaced from opposing (in the direction which is essentially perpendicular to the rotation axis) sides of the central polar part. Winding is situated upon central polar part. The part of winding positioned between the polar parts of the magnetic-force-conducting element is more than half the length of the whole winding. Central polar part may have at least one groove. The distance between the centers of adjacent polar surfaces of the magnetic-force-conducting element is set depending on the angle between the magnetic poles in the circular row. The angular dimension of the polar surface of the lateral polar part depends on the angular dimension of the polar surface of the central polar part.
