  • Patent number: 11444522
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a brushless and magnet-free synchronous electrical machine, wherein it comprises a stator (20) comprising a ring (22), a winding (28) and a tooth system (24) comprising teeth (26) extending parallel to the axis of rotation from the ring (22), said winding being wound around the tooth system (24), a rotor (10), comprising a first portion (12a) extending in p preferred directions (18a), a second portion (12b) extending in p preferred directions (18b) shifted by p with respect to the preferred directions of the first portion (18a), and an intermediate portion (14) linking the first portion (12a) to the second portion (12b), and a coil (40) for exciting the rotor, fixed with respect to the stator, supplied with a DC electric current, positioned around the intermediate portion (14) of the rotor and configured so as to generate an electric flux in the rotor (10) through magnetic induction.
