  • Patent number: 10630119
    Abstract: An electric motor, particularly for fans for combustion air, or for an air/combustion gas mixture, in gas burners, includes a stator assembly, which in turn includes a lamination pack provided with a perimetric frame with at least one pair of pole shoes, each one of which is constituted by a winding body and an expanded head; a frame for supporting the lamination pack; and a spool of conducting wire for each pole shoe, with the interposition of an insulating support. The assembly further includes elements for reducing rotational friction, for the driving shaft of a rotor, and accommodation parts for the elements for reducing rotational friction. The motor also includes a rotor with a driving shaft, wherein the perimetric frame and pole shoes are mutually distinct elements joined with fixing components.

  • Publication number: 20180127055
    Abstract: An electric motorcycle includes an electric motor disposed in a hub assembly of a wheel of the motorcycle; a plurality of internal cables connected to the electric motor, a first connector assembly disposed in the hub assembly and connecting the internal cables to a plurality of external cables, a second connector assembly disposed on the suspension and connecting the external cables to a plurality of upper cables, a plurality of rigid tubes inside which said upper tubes are disposed in such a way that the upper cables come out of the rigid tubes in correspondence of an upper part of the suspension, support and guide means connected to the suspension and suitable for supporting and guiding the rigid tubes, and an electric power system and a control unit disposed in the motorcycle and connected to the upper cables coming out of the rigid tubes.

  • Patent number: 9677761
    Abstract: A mixer device for burner equipment includes flow guide means for guiding an air-gas mixture to the intake of a fan rotatable about a first axis, the guide means including a tubular Venturi effect conduit structure with axially symmetric contiguous converging and diverging portions about a second axis, a section being provided between the portions of conduit into which the gas flow is delivered for mixing with the air flow supplied through the converging portion. The fan's axis of rotation does not coincide with the axis of longitudinal development of the Venturi effect conduit, the offset between the first and second axes allows placement of a valve which supplies the gas flow into the Venturi effect conduit with a configuration in which the projection of the overall dimensions of the Venturi effect conduit and of the valve unit, in the rotational axis direction, lies within the fan's cover plate projection.

  • Patent number: 7396374
    Abstract: A grease filter (1) for domestic extractor hoods comprises at least two walls (2, 3) placed face to face and having first through openings (4) made in them arranged in such a way as to cause sudden changes of direction in the fumes flowing through them. At least one of the walls (2, 3) includes a plurality of second openings (5) whose flow section is considerably narrower than that of the first openings (4). The first openings (4) and the second openings (5) combine to divide the total flow passing through the filter (1) into two component flows which are in turn divided into a first plurality of macroscopic flows (6) following a labyrinth path through the first openings (4) and a second plurality of microscopic flows (7) passing through the second openings (5).
