Abstract: The present invention relates to a reciprocating switched reluctance motor-driven engine in which a crank shaft is rotated by the switched reluctance motor and which is configured to reciprocate according to the reluctance torque generation principle of the switched reluctance motor. More specifically, an SRM module (1) is composed of: a cylindrical stator (11) obtained by coupling two stator cores (111) which have, on the inner surfaces, stator salient poles (1111) that are excited by winding coils (112); and a mover (12) which has mover salient poles (1211) formed on the outer surface and can reciprocate inside the stator (11). The mover (12) is coupled to a crank mechanism (2) for converting the reciprocating motion of the mover (12) into rotational motion, and rotational force is output from the crank mechanism (2) by the mover (12) which is reciprocated by alternatingly exciting the two stator cores (111).

Abstract: A DC motor is provided. The DC motor prevents rush or overload of current in the DC motor during and/or after power input irregularities to the DC motor. A control circuit of the DC motor is configured to control current provided to the DC motor. When power irregularities in the power input to the DC motor are detected by the control circuit, the control circuit stops generating PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signals and stops the current provided to the DC motor. After the stoppage of PWM signals, the control circuit can perform a soft-start of the PWM signals when the power irregularities are no longer detected. The soft starting of the PWM signals generates gradual increase in current to the DC motor, thus, preventing sudden rush of current that cause malfunction of the DC motor.

Abstract: A permanent magnet rotor of a brushless direct current (BLDC) motor, in which cogging torque ripple and electromagnetic vibration noise transferred to the permanent magnet rotor can be blocked and a motor's power-to-weight ratio can be improved. A conventional BLDC motor has to use an electric steel sheet core so as to maintain the maximum magnetic flux density of the permanent magnet rotor and to minimize a rotating electric field loss. As a result, cogging torque vibration is unavoidably transferred to a load side through the motor rotary shaft. However, the rotor can enable stable driving of the BLDC motor by innovatively blocking the cogging torque vibration and the electromagnetic vibration noise and can greatly reduce the motor's weight by using a plastic or non-magnetic material instead of an electric steel sheet core.

Abstract: A DC motor is provided. The DC motor prevents rush or overload of current in the DC motor during and/or after power input irregularities to the DC motor. A control circuit of the DC motor is configured to control current provided to the DC motor. When power irregularities in the power input to the DC motor are detected by the control circuit, the control circuit stops generating PWM (Pulse Width Modulated) signals and stops the current provided to the DC motor. After the stoppage of PWM signals, the control circuit can perform a soft-start of the PWM signals when the power irregularities are no longer detected. The soft starting of the PWM signals generates gradual increase in current to the DC motor, thus, preventing sudden rush of current that cause malfunction of the DC motor.

Abstract: A method of constant airflow control includes various controls to accomplish a substantially constant airflow rate over a significant change of the static pressure in a ventilation duct. One control is a constant I·RPM control, which is primarily used in a low static pressure range. Another control is a constant RPM control, which is primarily used in a high static pressure range. These controls requires neither a static pressure sensor nor an airflow rate sensor to accomplish substantially constant airflow rate while static pressure changes. Also, the method improves the accuracy of the control by correcting certain deviations that are caused by the motor's current—RPM characteristics. To compensate the deviation, the method adopts a test operation in a minimum static pressure condition. Also disclosed is an apparatus for conducting these control methods.
