  • Patent number: 7750776
    Abstract: A hollow cylindrically shaped anisotropic bonded magnet for use in a 4-pole motor, is formed by molding anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder with resin. The alignment distribution of the anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder in a cross section perpendicular to the axis of the anisotropic bonded magnet is in the normalized direction of the cylindrical side of the hollow cylindrical shape in the main region of a polar period, and in a transition region in which the direction of the magnetic pole changes, steadily points towards a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at points closer to the neutral point of the magnetic pole, and becomes a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at that neutral point, and steadily points toward the normalized direction of the cylindrical side at points farther away from the neutral point.

  • Patent number: 7592889
    Abstract: To realize an anisotropic bonded magnet that reduces cogging torque without lowering output torque. The present invention provides a hollow cylindrically shaped anisotropic bonded magnet for use in a 4-pole motor, formed by molding anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder with resin. The alignment distribution of the anisotropic rare-earth magnet powder in a cross section perpendicular to the axis of the anisotropic bonded magnet is in the normalized direction of the cylindrical side of the hollow cylindrical shape in the main region of a polar period, and in a transition region in which the direction of the magnetic pole changes, steadily points towards a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at points closer to the neutral point of the magnetic pole, and becomes a direction tangential to the periphery of the cylindrical side at that neutral point, and steadily points toward the normalized direction of the cylindrical side at points farther away from the neutral point.

  • Patent number: 7560841
    Abstract: The present invention provides miniaturization of brushless motors and brush motors used in electric devices, a ring magnet which simultaneously achieves both high torque and a reduction in cogging torque, a ring magnet with yoke, and a brushless motor. The thin hybrid magnetized ring magnet of the present invention is structured of, in a ring magnet comprised of a plurality of magnetic poles, a radially magnetized main pole and an interface for which the interface of the adjoining main pole is polar anisotropic. When the thin hybrid magnetized ring magnet structured in this manner is applied to a brushless motor, in the case of radial magnetizing, the abrupt change in magnetic flux of the interface between the magnetic poles becomes smooth and cogging torque is greatly reduced due to polar anisotropic magnetization of the interface.
