Abstract: To separate an interference signal regardless of a power and an arrival direction of the interference signal. A delay adjustment unit acquires a plurality of interference signals comprising identical signal components and synchronizes the predetermined single signal component of each interference signal. A waveform shaping unit adjusts phases of the predetermined single signal components included in the plurality of interference signals the delays of which are adjusted by the delay adjustment unit. An addition unit adds the plurality of interference signals in which the phases of the predetermined single signal components are adjusted by the waveform shaping unit.

Abstract: In an electric motor, permanent magnets are disposed on flat sections of a peripheral wall of the yoke, which is formed to be polygonal seen in plan view in the axial direction, a first bearing section which rotatably supports one end of the rotary shaft is integrally formed on a bottom part of the yoke, and a brush holder accommodating section capable of accommodating a brush holder unit that holds the brushes is integrally formed at an opening of the yoke.

Abstract: A brushless motor has rotor cores dividedly formed as plural sections in an axial direction, segment magnets secured to outer circumferential surfaces of the rotor cores, and magnet holders secured to the rotor cores, respectively, for holding the segment magnet. Each of the rotor cores has holder-positioning grooves to which holder arms are fitted, and bridge parts formed corresponding to the holder positioning grooves. Each of the magnet holders has joint grooves fitted in the bridge parts and displaced from the holder arms by a step angle, the bridge parts being fitted in the joint grooves, thereby assembling a rotor.

Abstract: Holder anchoring grooves are arranged on the outer periphery of a rotor core so as to extend axially. A holder arm having a substantially T-shaped cross section is fitted to each of the holder anchoring grooves. The holder arm has a main body section, an engaging projection and magnet holding pieces. The engaging projection is engaged with the corresponding one of the holder anchoring grooves. Each of the magnet holding pieces includes a first contact section, a second contact section and a non-contact area. A magnet containing section is defined by the magnet holding pieces that are located vis-à-vis relative to each other of any two adjacently located holder arms and the outer peripheral surface of the rotor core. In the magnet containing sections, a rotor magnet is press fitted and anchored from the shaft direction. Thus, there is provided a magnet fixing structure that can accurately anchor magnets to a rotor core or the like at low cost.

Abstract: Yoke plates (3a, 3b) of magnetic material adapted for rotation in synchronism with a rotary shaft (2) are installed. An axially magnetized magnet (5) is disposed through the yoke plates (3a, 3b) and an air gap (G1). The outer diameter (R1) of the yoke plates (3a, 3b) is larger than the outer diameter (R2) of the magnet (5). The magnet (5) is fixed to a fixing plate (6) of magnetic material. Hall ICs (9a, 9b) are attached to the front ends of the pole pieces (8a, 8b) of the fixing plate (6). The Hall ICs (9a, 9b) are disposed in a magnetic circuit (M) formed by the magnet (5). When the rotary shaft (2) rotates, the opposed areas (S1, S2) between the magnet (5) and the yoke plates (3a, 3b) vary, so that the density of magnetic flux passing through the Hall ICs (9a, 9b) in the magnetic circuit (M) linearly varies in proportion to the rotation angle. The Hall ICs (9a, 9b) catch this variation and detect the rotation angle of the rotary shaft (2).
