  • Publication number: 20170063179
    Abstract: A single phase brushless motor and a power tool are provided. The single phase brushless motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator core and windings wound around the stator core. The stator core includes a yoke and at least two teeth. The tooth includes a tooth body and a tooth tip. The tooth tip includes first and second pole shoes. The two pole shoes of each tooth are symmetrical about a center line of the tooth body. Each tooth defines a positioning groove facing the rotor between the two pole shoes. Pole shoes of adjacent two of the at least two teeth are spaced apart by a slot opening. A width of the positioning groove is greater than a width of the slot opening. The peak value of the cogging torque of the motor is increased, and the motor has a large startup torque.

  • Publication number: 20170063180
    Abstract: A single phase permanent magnet motor includes a stator. The stator includes a stator core and windings. The stator core includes a ring portion, tooth bodies extending radially from the ring portion, and a pole shoe extending from a distal end to two circumferential sides of each tooth body. Each pole shoe defines a positioning slot. A center of each positioning slot is offset from a center of symmetry of one adjacent tooth body so that a torque fluctuation of an output torque of the single phase permanent magnet motor during operation is less than 50%. As a result, the motor vibration and noise are small.

  • Publication number: 20170063184
    Abstract: A single phase permanent magnet motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator core and a stator winding. The stator core includes an outer yoke, teeth extending inwardly from the outer yoke, and pole shoes extending from inner ends of the teeth. The rotor is received in a space cooperatively defined by the pole shoes. The rotor includes circumferentially arranged permanent magnetic poles. An outer circumferential surface of the permanent magnetic poles is concentric with an inner circumferential surface of the pole shoes, such that a uniform air gap is formed between the pole shoes and magnetic poles. The single phase permanent magnet motor forms the uniform air gap, which reduces the vibration and noise. The pole shoes form invisible positioning slots, which avoids the negative effect of the positioning slots to the thickness of the air gap and reduces the startup dead point.

  • Patent number: 9584031
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein describe a power supply configured to provide power to an output load via a power supply transformer. The power supply includes a controller configured to operate in a configuration state and an operating state. During the configuration state, the controller receives a configuration signal from a sense circuit coupled to the controller and selects one of a plurality of operating modes from the configuration signal. During the operating state, the controller controls a switch coupled to the transformer based on the selected operating mode and a sense signal received from the sense circuit representative of the power provided to the output load by the power supply. When the switch is closed, current flows from a power source through the transformer, and when the switch is open, current is prevented from flowing from the power source through the transformer.

  • Patent number: 9552381
    Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for limiting the rendering of instances of recursive elements in view output. A schema provides a definition of elements, wherein at least one of the elements comprises a recursive element of a recursive data type, wherein the recursive data type allows for instances of the recursive element to include instances of that same recursive data type at different levels in a hierarchy. A condition is received for terminating recursion for the recursive element. A view is generated for the schema including information on the condition for terminating the recursion, wherein the processing of the view causes a parser to chunk instances of the recursive element in schema data in response to the condition indicating to terminate recursion at the level of the instance of the recursive element being processed.
