Abstract: A braking device for an electric motor includes two brake pads, which are connected to brake disks, which cooperate with a brake rail. The two brake pads are rigidly connected by a connecting element, which is able to experience a certain deflection under the influence of a piezoelectric element, which is used to distance the two brake pads from each other. An assembly, which includes the two brake pads and their connecting element, is fastened on a support by a fastening device, which is elastically deformable along the direction at right angles with respect to the brake rail and to the two brake pads. The elastically deformable fastening device is formed of plates, which are connected on one end to the assembly and on the other end to the support.

Abstract: A Z-? table includes a bed capable of undergoing linear displacement along the Z-axis and angular positioning. The table includes two rotary motors arranged in a substantially concentric manner with two fixed stators. The interior rotor includes a device for guiding an intermediary piece along the Z-axis, and the exterior rotor includes a threaded portion that provides a nut associated with a threaded portion of an intermediary part arranged between the two rotors. The exterior rotor and the intermediary piece provide a ball-screw system. Each of the two rotors is associated with an angular displacement sensor for the precise determination of their angular positions.

Abstract: A synchronous motor having a rotor that includes: a body, a plurality of magnets positioned on the body of the rotor. For each of the plurality of magnets, a corresponding clamping element fixes a corresponding one of the plurality of magnets on the body of the rotor, wherein the corresponding clamping element includes a web arranged between the corresponding one of the plurality of magnets and the body of the rotor. The synchronous motor further including a stator including a coil that receives an electric current and generates a magnetic field that generates a torque on the rotor.

Abstract: A linear motor having a fixed inductor and a moving part including windings and a stator. The stator includes a plurality of teeth defining a plurality of slots into which the windings are inserted, the stator being segmented into a first piece and a second piece adjacent to the first piece. A joint is defined between the first piece and the second piece. A fastening fastens the first piece to the second piece, wherein the fastening includes a recess disposed in a first lateral surface of the first piece located at the joint, wherein the recess opens exclusively onto the lateral surface and defines at least one locking surface. A complementary part formed from the second piece and which engages the at least one locking surface so as to hold the first lateral surface and a second lateral surface of the second piece against one another.

Abstract: A foldable sink box consisting of a rigid plasticized hull and a buoyant platform having a large central aperture for engagement by the rigid hull in assembled condition. The hull defines a relatively deep well, for sitting engagement by a hunter. The platform defines two halves, interconnected by an intermediate lengthwisely-extending hinge member. Locking brackets releasably lockingly interconnect the platform to the top edge portion of the rigid hull, concurrently with releasably locking the platform halves in coplanar fashion.
