  • Patent number: 10348143
    Abstract: A multi-pole component for an electric machine includes an upper side, a lower side, a first magnetic pole having a surface on the upper side, a second magnetic pole having a surface in a tangential direction adjacent to the first magnetic pole on the upper side and a soft-magnetic device. The soft-magnetic device has a recess between the first magnetic pole and the second magnetic pole. A vertical direction is directed from the upper side to the lower side at right angle to a tangential direction. The first magnetic pole has a permanent magnet with a magnetization in one direction, and the second magnetic pole does not have a permanent magnet.

  • Patent number: 10236734
    Abstract: A rotor for an electric machine, comprising a modular design consisting of a plurality of modular elements is disclosed. These modules are arranged adjacent to each other in a direction of movement of the rotor. Each modular element has at least one magnet and at least one ferromagnetic pole shoe, and the poles of the magnet are aligned in the direction of movement of the rotor. An electric machine comprising a stator and a rotor according to the invention is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 9479016
    Abstract: An electric machine includes a primary section, a secondary section interacting with the primary section via an air gap during operation of the electric machine, and a first base element fastened to the secondary section. The base element includes a first pole shoe having a first end and a second end, with the second end of the first pole shoe facing the air gap, a second pole shoe having a first end and a second end, with the second end of the second pole shoe facing the air gap, and a permanent magnet disposed between the first pole shoe and the second pole shoe. The permanent magnet has a magnetization from the first pole shoe to the second pole shoe, and is formed by a matrix with a magnetically active material embedded therein.
