  • Patent number: 12166399
    Abstract: A high-efficiency, high specific power electric motor/generator for aircraft use provides a cantilevered external rotor removed from load thrust and vibration by an isolator and hearing set between the rotor and stator reducing material demands and weight otherwise required for stiffness to preserve close rotor/stator proximity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 14, 2022
    Date of Patent: December 10, 2024
    Assignee: Hinetics LLC
    Inventors: Jianqiao Xiao, Kiruba S. Haran
  • Publication number: 20240014709
    Abstract: A lightweight superconducting machine provides a coil support shell having a polygonal outer surface facilitating the use of flat electrical coils better adapted to superconducting temperatures. An improved mounting of spokes between the rotor and shell provides for a straight spoke extent reducing stress concentration facilitated by a ball joint termination of the spoke and in-line orientation of a tightening mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20220302816
    Abstract: A lightweight superconducting machine suitable for aerospace applications provides a wound-field rotor suspended from a driveshaft by insulating tensile spokes. The resultant reduction in heat transmission allows a cryocooler positioned centrally within the rotor to cool the machine coils through radially conducting straps.
