  • Patent number: 10726991
    Abstract: A coil unit includes a coil formed of a conducting wire arranged on a first plane and laid side by side with itself in an inside-outside direction with a coil axis normal to the first plane as the center, and a plurality of magnetic plates arranged on a second plane which is along and adjacent to the first plane. A gap which is formed by the magnetic plates and traverses the inside-outside direction of the coil is located near an edge portion of the coil in the inside-outside direction.

  • Publication number: 20060273676
    Abstract: An axial gap motor may benefit from a reduction of axial force on the rotor, which may reduce load on the rotor and bearings and reduce the vibration on the surface of the rotor. An air gap is positioned on the stator facing the rotor, and an auxiliary yoke is positioned facing the air gap on the other side of the rotor. Magnetic flux circulates from the rotor and the axial force ? is applied to the rotor when the magnetic flux passes by the air gap surface on the stator side of the rotor. Axial force ? is applied to the rotor when the magnetic flux passes by the air gap surface on the auxiliary yoke side of the rotor. Axial force ? is opposite, or reverse, of axial force ? and reduces axial force ? so axial force ? reduces the load on the rotor and bearings.

  • Patent number: 4637866
    Abstract: The present invention is concerned with a process for recovering tritium from tritiated water wherein a gas stream containing tritiated water steam is conducted into an electrolytic cell within which is disposed an oxygen ion conductive solid electrolytic membrane having a cathode and an anode disposed upon the opposite surfaces thereof. As a result of the electrolysis process, tritium gas is collected from the cathode side of the electrolytic cell, while oxygen gas is collected from the anode side of the electrolytic cell.
