  • Patent number: 6118201
    Abstract: A brushless resolver comprising a housing, a rotor rotatably mounted in the housing, a rotary transformer comprising a primary winding carried by the housing and secondary winding on the rotor and operatively associated with the primary winding, a resolver comprising a stator winding carried by the housing and a rotor winding on the rotor and operatively associated with the stator winding, characterized by an electromagnetic flux absorber in the housing between the rotary transformer and the resolver for absorbing leakage electromagnetic flux from the rotary transformer so as to reduce any deviation between the indicated electrical position of the rotor and the actual mechanical position of the rotor during each revolution of the rotor. The flux absorber comprises a copper ring between the rotary transformer primary winding and the resolver stator winding so that the leakage flux creates eddy currents in the ring thereby absorbing or reducing the leakage flux.
