  • Patent number: 11970669
    Abstract: [Technical Problem] An object is to provide a lubricant capable of forming a stable adsorption film on a sliding surface and stabilizing the sliding characteristics (for example, ensuring the wear resistance, etc.). [Solution to Problem] The present invention provides a lubricant represented by the following chemical structural formula. (R: a hydrocarbon group whose carbon number is 8 to 24, m and n: integers of 2 to 8) [Selected Figure] FIG.

  • Patent number: 9887656
    Abstract: A current command value calculating unit (174) calculates current command values for a rotor winding (30) and current command values for a stator winding (20) with respect to a torque command value between a first rotor (28) and a second rotor (18) and a torque command value between a stator (16) and the second rotor (18) based on an evaluation function representing a total copper loss of the rotor winding (30) and the stator winding (20) and using first and second magnetic interference models. The first magnetic interference model represents a relationship of a linkage magnetic flux ?in of the rotor winding (30) with respect to a current Iin in the rotor winding (30) and a current Iout in the stator winding (20). The second magnetic interference model represents a relationship of a linkage magnetic flux ?out of the stator winding (20) with respect to the current Iin, Iout.

  • Patent number: 9716412
    Abstract: This rotor for a rotating electric motor includes a hollow cylindrical rotor core with a plurality of laminated electromagnetic steel plates. The inner and outer circumferential surfaces of the rotor core each face a magnetic gap. The rotor core is interposed between a first rotating support member and a second rotating support member. A flange is formed on a first end of a tubular pin protruding from a first hole of the first rotating support member. A tubular expansion part of the tubular pin plastically deforms due to fluid pressure so as to come into close contact with a through hole of the rotor core, the first hole of the first rotating support member, and a second hole of the second rotating support member.

  • Patent number: 9673689
    Abstract: Provided is a compound motor (14) comprising a magnet rotor (19) supported by bearings (B3, B4) in a rotatable manner, a winding rotor (20) supported by bearings (B5, B6) in a rotatable manner relative to the magnet rotor (19) at the inner side of the magnet rotor (19) and having rotor winding units (20b), and slip ring mechanisms (25). A space is formed in the inner circumference of the winding rotor (20). At least a part of the slip ring mechanisms (25) is arranged in the space of the inner circumference of the winding rotor (20). The bearings (B3 to B6) include bearings (B3, B6), the internal diameter of each is larger than the size of slip ring mechanisms (25) with respect to the radial direction. The bearings (B3, B6) are arranged outside the slip ring mechanisms (25) with respect to the radial direction.
