Abstract: A device for positioning and affixing magnets on a magnetic yoke member of an electric motor includes: a nonmagnetic support for receiving the magnets; a magnetic element for holding the magnets in position on the nonmagnetic support arranged on the other side of the nonmagnetic support with respect to the magnets, the attraction exerted by this element on the magnets greater than that exerted by the magnetic yoke member during positioning of the device with respect to the yoke; a device for varying the magnetic forces present, whereby the magnetic attraction of the magnetic yoke member and/or the magnetic element on the magnets may be varied such that the magnetic force of attraction exerted by the yoke on the magnets becomes greater than that exerted by the magnetic element on them, thus provoking transfer of the magnets to the yoke.

Abstract: A synchronous motor includes multiple coil segments, each of which has an iron core in the form of a core stack that is wound with a coil. The coil segments are characterized in that the coils press fastening elements having at least two legs against two opposite surfaces of the substantially right parallelepiped iron core. In each case, at least one leg of the fastening element abutting against the iron core is pressed against the iron core, and at least one free leg of the fastening element projects away from the iron core. The free legs are fastened to connecting elements that connect multiple coil segments to one another.

The planar motor also includes substantially cuboidal second magnets whose magnetization is parallel to the plane and which are disposed with alternating polarity in the first direction and second direction between the first magnets, so that each first magnet is surrounded by four second magnets. The first magnets are disposed on protrusions of the base element.

Abstract: 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.

Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods are provided for transporting implants. In one embodiment, the implants are radioactive seeds contained within substantially transparent sleeves that can be sealed at both ends. Multiple sleeves can be placed in a transfer device that, in turn, can be placed in a canister for further protection. The entire assembly can be sterilized prior to shipment to the user. Upon receipt, one can verify the loading pattern and activity of each sleeve, open one of the seals, and transfer the contents into a brachytherapy needle.
