Abstract: A clutch mechanism moving together with an actuator allows coupling or decoupling an inner rotor to or from a power shaft, thereby controlling a rotation angle. This structure allows a polarity of a magnetic pole of the inner rotor to be the same as that of an opposing magnetic pole of an outer rotor when the motor is driven at a low rpm, so that magnetic fluxes inter-linking with windings can be increased, which results in greater torque. When the motor is driven at a high rpm, the structure allows the polarity of the magnetic pole of the inner rotor to be different from that of the opposing magnetic pole of the outer rotor, so that an amount of leakage flux is increased, and the magnetic fluxes inter-linking with the winding are decreased. As a result, an induction voltage is lowered and a high rpm range is widened.

Abstract: A rotational difference is generated between a first and a second rotor and a third rotor, which causes an induced current to flow in a first rotor winding. This causes a torque to act between the first rotor and the third rotor. The rotary magnetic field generated by the induced current flowing through a second rotor winding interacts with a second stator, which in turn generates an induced electromotive force in a second stator winding. The induced electromotive force is applied via a phase adjustment circuit to a first stator winding, which generates a rotary magnetic field and causes a torque to act between the first stator and the third rotor. The rotary magnetic field generated by the second rotor winding and the induced current flowing in the second stator winding causes a torque to act between the second stator and the second rotor.
