  • Double-rotor flux-switching machine
    Patent number: 10700561
    Abstract: Advantageous machines, such as flux-switching machines (FSMs) are provided. An FSM can be yokeless and can have two rotors, which can be displaced from one another (e.g., by half a pole pitch). An FSM can be a flux-switching permanent magnet machine (FSPMM), and all magnets can be magnetized in the same circumferential direction. FSMs of the subject invention are cost-effective, have high torque density, and can operate well even under fault conditions.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 14, 2019
    Date of Patent: June 30, 2020
    Assignee: Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
    Inventors: Arun Gandhi, Leila Parsa

  • Flux-switching linear permanent magnet machine with yokeless translator
    Patent number: 9281735
    Abstract: Advantageous motors, such as flux-switching linear synchronous motors (FSLSMs) are provided. In an FSLSM, all magnets can be magnetized in the same direction. In addition, an FSLSM can be yokeless and can have two stators displaced from one another by half a pole pitch. FSLSMs of the subject invention are cost-effective and provide high thrust, and can operate well even under fault conditions.
