  • Patent number: 11605992
    Abstract: A motor assembly includes a motor and sealing member fixed to a frame. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a coil holding portion and a first portion with an annular shape and extending radially outward from the coil holding portion. The rotor includes a magnet and a magnet holding portion located in a first space. The first portion has a first surface in contact with the first space, and a second surface on a side opposite to the first surface. A through hole penetrates from the first surface to the second surface in the first portion. The sealing member is disposed on a side of the stator opposite to the rotor, and is fixed to the frame so a second space between the sealing member and the stator does not communicate with an external space other than the first space.

  • Patent number: 9923424
    Abstract: A radial gap type rotating electrical machine includes a field and an armature. The field includes a permanent magnet and a magnetic ring which serves as a back yoke of the permanent magnet. The magnetic ring is provided at a position farther from the armature than the permanent magnet, and includes a recess at a magnetic pole center. The magnetic pole center is a center of a magnetic pole in a circumferential direction with respect to a rotation axis. A thickness of the recess in the radial direction around the rotation axis as a center comes to locally thin.

  • Patent number: 7902712
    Abstract: A magnetic member with an annular outer periphery and an inner periphery includes first portions and second portions alternately disposed in its circumferential direction. The first portions and second portions are magnetically separated in the circumferential direction by gaps, which block magnetic fluxes from flowing in the circumferential direction between the first portion and second portion. The first portions respectively have holes extending almost in the circumferential direction. The gaps are provided at both ends of the holes in the circumferential direction between the outer periphery and inner periphery. An interior permanent magnet type rotor can be structured by inserting field magnets into the holes.
