Patent number: 9647511Abstract: A primary part of an ironless linear motor includes a cooling plate on which flat coils are disposed, each having a central opening. The coils are pressed onto the cooling plate by holding pieces which taper toward the cooling plate and engage in the openings in the coils. In this manner, an especially good contact is produced between the flat coils of the primary part and the cooling plate prior to encapsulating the primary part with a synthetic resin, the cooling effect of the preferably actively cooled cooling plate thereby being increased markedly.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 2013Date of Patent: May 9, 2017Assignee: ETEL S.A.Inventor: Jean-Pierre Morel

Patent number: 7719168Abstract: A braking device for an electric motor includes two brake pads, which are connected to brake disks, which cooperate with a brake rail. The two brake pads are rigidly connected by a connecting element, which is able to experience a certain deflection under the influence of a piezoelectric element, which is used to distance the two brake pads from each other. An assembly, which includes the two brake pads and their connecting element, is fastened on a support by a fastening device, which is elastically deformable along the direction at right angles with respect to the brake rail and to the two brake pads. The elastically deformable fastening device is formed of plates, which are connected on one end to the assembly and on the other end to the support.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2006Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: ETEL S.A.Inventor: Jean-Pierre Morel
