Abstract: The present invention relates to fluid pump assemblies in general, and in exemplary embodiments to fluid pump assemblies that are magnetically supported in position, and to related kits and methods useful to circulate water in aquariums. The fluid pump assembly comprises an outer mount, an inner mount, and a pump. The outer mount includes at least one outer permanent magnet; the inner mount includes at least one inner permanent magnet; and the pump includes at least one soft magnetic material. The outer permanent magnet, the inner permanent magnet, and the soft magnetic material collectively form a magnetic circuit.

Abstract: Technology for a user equipment (UE) operable to adjust a receiver timing is disclosed. The UE can decode a plurality of channel-state information reference signals (CSI-RSs) received from a plurality of cooperating nodes, wherein the plurality of cooperating nodes are included in a coordination set of a Coordinated MultiPoint (CoMP) system. The UE can generate a plurality of received RS timings from the plurality of CSI-RSs, wherein the received RS timings represent timings from the plurality of cooperating nodes. The UE can determine a composite received RS timing from the plurality of received RS timings. The UE can adjust the receiver timing based on the composite received RS timing.

Abstract: A stator of an electric rotary machine includes: a stator core; and a coil including a plurality of first coil segments and a plurality of second coil segments. An end part of the projection part of the first coil segment is joined with an end part of the projection part of the second coil segment through laser welding in a state of abutting to the end part of the projection part of the second coil segment. And abutting portions abutting to each other between the projection part of the first coil segment and the projection part of the second coil segment include joining surfaces joined with each other and engaging surfaces engaged with each other and orthogonal to the joining surfaces.

Abstract: An automotive alternator includes a shaft supported in a pair of brackets so as to rotate freely, a rotor secured to the shaft, a stator provided with a cylindrical stator core having a plurality of slots whose grooves extend in an axial direction of the stator core disposed circumferentially around the inner circumferential surface thereof and a stator coil wound into the slots, the stator core being secured to the pair of brackets so as to envelop the rotor, and a rectifier disposed within the pair of brackets so as to be positioned at the rear end of the rotor, wherein the stator coil is constructed by inserting a plurality of coil segments into each of the slots so as to align in rows in the radial direction within the slots and connecting the tips of each of the coil segments projecting axially outwards from the stator core to the tips of coil segments inserted into slots a predetermined number of slots away projecting axially outwards from the stator core, and wherein the coil segments are formed into a

Abstract: A rotating electric machinery comprises a stator; a rotor which is fixed to a rotor shaft and is driven by said motor; a fan which is rotatably connected through a bearing to said rotor to feed air in a predetermined direction; and at least one pair of magnets having a predetermined magnetic force which are fixed on either said rotor or said fan and a magnetic substance having a predetermined coercive force which is fixed on said fan or on said rotor to face said magnet with a desired gap.

Abstract: Motor, either synchronous or direct current, including at least one drive coil and including a magnetic rotor having at least two concentric rings of magnetic domains of alternating magnetic poles, with each succeeding rotor ring being of a larger diameter than the previous rotor ring. The drive coil is radially movable so as to be positioned over or adjacent to each of the rotor rings.

Abstract: There is disclosed an electrical drive motor, in particular for the water pumps in the field of aquaria, wherein the housing is universally sealed liquid- and gas-proof and wherein a permanent-magnetic coupling is located on the motor shaft acting through the sealed housing wall. In order to render this drive motor independent so that it may be used for various units, is able to be connected thereto with no problems and in addition thereto is reliable, the side of the motor housing directed toward the water pump is defined as a thin-walled diaphragm with a planar outer surface which is engagable with a likewise planar sealed diaphragm surface of the pump casing, in the area of the diaphragm securing means being provided for connecting the motor housing to the pump casing. Such a motor may be used with no problems in the field of aquaria and may even be used submerged in water.
