Patent number: 11949289Abstract: A stator defines multiple stator poles with associated electrical windings. A rotor includes multiple rotor poles. The rotor is movable with respect to the stator and defines, together with the stator, a nominal gap between the stator poles and the rotor poles. The rotor poles includes a magnetically permeable pole material. The rotor also includes a series of frequency programmable flux channels (FPFCs). Each FPFC includes a conductive loop surrounding an associated rotor pole. The stator and the rotor are arranged such that the electrical windings in the stator induce an excitement current within at least one of the FPFCs during start-up.Type: GrantFiled: December 16, 2022Date of Patent: April 2, 2024Assignee: TAU MOTORS, INC.Inventors: Walter Wesley Pennington, III, Matthew J Rubin, Gregory Gordon Stevenson, Michael Parker Owen

Patent number: 11936255Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator and a rotor energizable by magnetic fields produced by the stator when receiving a stator current to produce relative motion between the rotor and the stator. A controller is configured to send the stator current through the stator at a current angle measured from the closest one of a pole of the rotor, determine a desired operational output of the electric machine, and determine a desired rotor motion corresponding to the desired operational output of the electric machine. The controller is further configured to calculate a vector control modulation applied to the stator that elicits the desired rotor motion, and adjust the current angle of the stator current based on the vector control modulation to cause the rotor to perform the desired rotor motion and achieve the desired operational output of the electric machine.Type: GrantFiled: June 9, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Tau Motors, Inc.Inventors: Walter Wesley Pennington, III, Matthew J. Rubin, Gregory Gordon Stevenson, Michael Parker Owen, Ethan Bagget Swint, Matthias Preindl

Patent number: 10508425Abstract: An overflow vent irrigation device is disclosed. An example overflow vent irrigation device includes a reservoir body having an input port and an exit port. The example overflow vent irrigation device also includes a tablet chamber in fluid communication with the reservoir body, and a turbulence dam within the reservoir body. The input port is connected to a faucet of a basin, and the exit port is connected via a hose to an overflow port of an overflow-to-drain journal of the basin during use to clean the overflow journal of the basin.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2018Date of Patent: December 17, 2019Inventor: Wesley Owen

Patent number: 7954424Abstract: A rack for an appliance comprises a support platform including a support frame and a plurality of elongated support wires attached to the support frame to form a support surface extending generally along a plane. An upwardly projecting portion is adapted to engage structure of an appliance to inhibit the rack from being removed therefrom. In one example, at least one leg section is attached to the support platform and extends a distance along a longitudinal axis of the support platform that is less than half of the total length of the support platform. In addition or alternatively, the support frame includes a rear member having a portion that is bent inwardly in a direction towards the front member so as to be spaced a distance from a rear wall of an appliance. In addition or alternatively, an arrangement for supporting items in an appliance includes the rack.Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2006Date of Patent: June 7, 2011Assignee: Electrolux Home Products, Inc.Inventors: Wesley Owens Dunn, Timothy David Scott
