Abstract: A rotary electric machine is provided, which includes a rotor core, a plurality of permanent magnets embedded in the rotor core, and a stator core arranged so as to oppose to the rotor core. The plurality of permanent magnets include a pair of first permanent magnets. The pair of first permanent magnets are arranged so that first magnetic poles thereof having the same polarity oppose to each other and are separated from each other on both sides of a magnetic path of d-axis by a predetermined distance. The rotor core includes gaps formed within the magnetic path of the d-axis.

Abstract: An actuator in accordance with an embodiment includes at least one linear motor, a partition member and a fan. The linear motor is configured to linearly move a shaft serving as a movable member. The partition member is provided close to the shaft and configured to partition a space defined between the shaft and a control board for controlling the linear motor. Further, the fan is arranged on the side of the shaft with respect to the partition member and configured to flow an air existing in a partitioned space on the side of the shaft.

Abstract: With a motor with an encoder of the invention, a stopper gap formed between a stopper formed on an outer circumferential surface of a hub of the encoder and a bearing cover of an anti-load side bracket is set smaller than an encoder gap to prevent that a rotating disk is made contact with a fixed slit even when an excessive force is applied to an output shaft of the motor with the encoder.

Abstract: A ferromagnetic member (21) of a movable part (2) is disposed on a side of a stationary part (1) such that the ferromagnetic member (21) faces a high temperature superconductor (11) of the stationary part (1). The high temperature superconductor (11) is brought into a superconductive state by cooling it to a temperature below a critical temperature in a magnetic field. The magnetic flux pinned to the high temperature superconductor (11) is caused to pass through the ferromagnetic member (21) so that an attractive force is generated between the high temperature superconductor (11) and the ferromagnetic member (21) to hold the movable part (2). When the ferromagnetic member (21) has a shape such that when the gap becomes lower than a predetermined value, the attractive force decreases, the movable part (2) can be stably suspended in a non-contacting manner, without the necessity of control, by the combination of the high temperature superconductor (11) and the ferromagnetic member (21).
