Abstract: An electric motor includes a stator having multiple magnetic poles and a rotor rotatably mounted to the stator. The rotor includes a shaft, a commutator and a rotor core fixed to the shaft; and windings wound on the rotor core and electrically connected to the commutator. The rotor core is formed by stacking a plurality of laminations. Each lamination includes an inner ring having a hole for fixing the shaft; an outer ring radially spaced from the inner ring; multiple teeth extending outwardly from the outer ring, and multiple ribs connecting the inner ring to the outer ring. Each rib has a width w measured in a circumferential direction of the lamination. The number of ribs is n. The width w and the number n satisfy the formula: 0.75?n×w2?64, where the width w is measured in millimeters.

Abstract: Described herein are fragments of fibronectin and variants thereof that bind growth factors. Compositions containing such a fragment of fibronectin are therefore useful in sequestering growth factors, and complexes containing both a FN fragment and a bound, active growth factor can be used to deliver growth factors to a patient (e.g., to a wound on the patient's skin).
