  • Patent number: 6936946
    Abstract: Leakage of a magnetic flux from inside diameter face of claw magnetic poles is reduced to improve output, and deformation and vibration of the claw magnetic poles are reduced. A rotor includes: a rotor coil for generating magnetic flux; a pole core comprised of a first pole core body and a second pole core body that are arranged so as to cover the rotor coil, each being provided with protruding claw magnetic poles 21, 22 engaging with each other; a magnet 31 for reducing leakage of magnetic flux leaking from inside diameter side of the claw magnetic poles 21, 22; and a magnet-holding member 32 for supporting the magnet 31 on the claw magnetic poles 21, 22.

  • Patent number: 6930432
    Abstract: A rotor of a dynamo-electric machine according to the present invention including a pole core provided so as to cover a rotor coil generating a magnetic flux and being made up of a first pole core body and a second pole core body having respectively tooth-shaped magnetic poles projecting so as to mesh alternately with each other, includes magnet ASSYs as the magnetic element having magnets disposed on the both side surfaces of the tooth-shaped magnetic poles for reducing magnetic flux leakage from between the side surfaces of the adjacent tooth-shaped magnetic poles, and magnet retaining members for supporting the magnets on the tooth-shaped magnetic poles, and resin members filled between the magnet ASSYs at the position between the opposing surfaces thereof.

  • Publication number: 20050110358
    Abstract: In an electric rotating machine, a rotor can be manufactured relatively easily at reasonable cost without high working accuracy for pole cores, and a permanent magnet can be assembled without impairing cooling efficiency of the rotor. A magnet-holding member 7 is separately fixed to a claw-shaped magnetic pole 21 of at least one of a pair of pole cores 2, 3; each magnet-holding member 7 is provided with a magnet mounting part 72 on which a permanent magnet 5 is mounted on two sides of the claw-shaped magnetic pole 21 in circumferential direction; and each magnet mounting part 72 is formed so as to be located between the claw-shaped magnetic poles 21, 31 engaged with each other.

  • Publication number: 20040100162
    Abstract: Deformation and vibration of claw magnetic poles in rotor are reduced. A rotor includes: a rotor coil 15 for generating a magnetic flux by applying a current; a pole core comprised of a first pole core body 19 and a second pole core body 20 that are disposed so as to cover the rotor coil 15, each being provided with claw-shaped claw magnetic poles 21, 22 engaging with each other; and a magnet assembly 25 composed of a magnet 23 for reducing leakage of magnetic flux and a magnet-holding member 24 for supporting the magnet 23 on the claw magnetic poles 21, 22. Center of gravity 25G of the magnet assembly 25 is located on the base part side nearer than the center of the claw magnetic poles 21, 22.
