Abstract: an axial flux electric motor having one or more permanent magnets (91) in a rotor that combines the functions of one or more rotor elements of a second machine or mechanism with the rotor of the axial flux electric motor, such as a gear driver of a gear pump (96), a vane rotor of a vane pump (130), an impeller of a turbine type axial flow pump (160), a vane rotor of a vane compressor (190), a swash plate of an axial piston machine (222), an eccentric (220), a cam (224), or a roller rotor (227) or other rotor elements to create smaller, lighter, more efficient machines and mechanisms that can also be modular in construction, sharing various common components across a wide range of these hybrid machines and mechanisms.
