Abstract: A stator comprises multiple, stacked laminations, which collectively define a core having a number of posts arranged circumferentially about the core. Each post extends into two prongs defining a first slot between the prongs. The spacing between each posts and its two prongs defines a second slot having a radially inner and outer slot. The outer slot geometry has an increasing width extending radially outward from the radially inner end, and transitioning to a decreasing width extending to the radially outer end.

Abstract: A power tool has a motor having a stator made by separately forming pole pieces and field coils. The field coils are placed over necks of the pole path pieces. An armature has an outside diameter of at least 0.625 the outside diameter of the stator is placed in the stator. The housing has a girth of 200 mm or less with the motor wound to provide a maximum watts out to housing girth ratio of at least 5 maximum watts outs to 1 mm of housing girth. The field coils may be formed so that they extend beyond pole tips of the pole pieces.

Abstract: In a method of detecting input for a portable electronic device, when a virtual keyboard is displayed on a display of a touch panel, an accelerometer detects orientation of the portable electronic device to adjust a contact area of each key of the virtual keyboard. The adjusted display of each key provides a suitable contact area on the virtual keyboard according to the detected orientation of the portable electronic device.

Abstract: An armature for a brush commutated electric motor having a distributed coil winding arrangement for reducing brush arcing and electromagnetic interference (EMI). The winding pattern involves winding a first coil into a first pair of slots of the armature. A second coil having a first subcoil portion is then wound into the same slots as the first coil, while a second subcoil portion of the second coil is wound into a pair of slots that is offset by one slot position from the first pair of slots. The two subcoil portions have the same number of turns, and the total turns of the two subcoil portions equals the number of turns of the first coil. A third coil is then wound in the same slots as the second subcoil portion of the second coil. The third coil has the same number of turns as the first coil. This pattern is repeated around the armature.

Abstract: An armature for a brush commutated electric motor having a distributed coil winding arrangement for reducing brush arcing and electromagnetic interference (EMI). The winding pattern involves segmenting each coil into first and second subcoil portions with differing pluralities of turns. Each subcoil portion is wound around separate pairs of spaced apart slots of a lamination stack. Adjacent coils are wound such that one subcoil portion of each is wound in a common slot to therefore form an overlapping arrangement of each pair of adjacently coils. The winding pattern serves to “shift” the resultant magnetic axes of each coil in such a manner so as to significantly reduce brush arcing and the EMI resulting therefrom. The reduction in EMI is sufficient to eliminate the need for EMI reducing components, such as chokes, which have typically been required to maintain EMI to acceptably low levels.
