Patent number: 7839042Abstract: An inductor motor includes a stator block, a substantially cylindrical excitation coil, and a rotor including two substantially columnar magnet rotors coaxially arranged, and the magnet rotors are individually inserted inside two stator blocks coaxially arranged. The stator is formed of a substantially flat plate-shaped preformed member of a magnetic material having a plurality of protruding pieces circumferentially formed and protruding radially outwardly, and has stator teeth formed by bending the protruding pieces to stand up. The rotor has an intermediate circumferential groove with a smaller diameter than a magnet portion between the two magnet rotors coaxially arranged. A holding plate portion of the stator placed on an axially intermediate side in each stator block is placed around the intermediate circumferential groove of the rotor.Type: GrantFiled: October 17, 2006Date of Patent: November 23, 2010Assignee: Shinsei Seiki Co., LtdInventors: Tomihiko Hashimoto, Shigetsugu Ozaki, Shigechika Kobayashi, Takashi Kato

Patent number: 7675205Abstract: A driving apparatus that can be made compact, without increasing the number of component parts and decreasing diameters of a rotating shaft and bearings. When a first unit assembled from a first stator and a first bobbin is coupled to a second unit assembled from a second stator and a second bobbin, engaging portions of the first bobbin are caused by a first switching member to shift from a disengaged state from the first stator to an engaged state with the first stator, and a second switching member, and engaging portions of the second bobbin are caused by a second switching member to shift from a disengaged state from the second stator to an engaged state with the second stator.Type: GrantFiled: January 16, 2007Date of Patent: March 9, 2010Assignee: Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventor: Eriko Namazue
