Abstract: A stepping motor includes a stator, a rotor which is rotatable to the stator, a rotor-side position regulation part which is fixed to the rotor and is rotated together with the rotor, and a stator-side position regulation part which is fixed to the stator. The rotor includes a rotary shaft, and a rotor magnet which is mounted on an outer periphery of the rotary shaft. The rotary shaft is integrally formed with the rotor magnet by resin. The stator-side position regulation part includes a first stator-side position regulation part which contacts the rotor-side position regulation part at a first position to regulate a rotation of the rotor in one direction, and a second stator-side position regulation part which contacts the rotor-side position regulation part at a second position different from the first position to regulate a rotation of the rotor in an opposite direction to the one direction.

Abstract: A stepping motor uses a low-cost ferrite magnet instead of an expensive rare-earth magnet. The stepping motor has characteristics equivalent or superior to those of a conventional stepping motor. The stepping motor is provided with a rotor 300, a stator yoke 200, and bearings 501 and 502 which rotatably hold the rotor 300 with respect to the stator yoke 200. The rotor 300 has a columnar shape and has plural magnetic poles arranged in the circumferential direction of the outer circumferential surface. The stator yoke 200 has an outer cylindrical portion and an inner circumferential portion which surrounds the rotor 300 and which has plural first pole teeth and plural second pole teeth. The outer diameter “d” of the rotor 300 and the outer diameter “D” of the stator yoke 200 are set so that the ratio of “d/D” is greater than 0.6.

Abstract: A two-phase permanent magnet step motor comprises a permanent magnet rotor having an equal number Nr of magnetic north and south poles defining a fundamental step angle ?=90°/Nr, such that a number of steps per revolution of the rotor is 360°/?, and a toothless hybrid stator with windings defining a number Ns of stator poles, with Ns being divisible by four and a ratio Nr/Ns=n/4, n being an odd integer. The permanent magnet rotor may comprise a set of rare-earth magnets. Preferably, Nr is at most 10 (i.e., not more than 20 rotor poles). A method of driving the step motor continuously applies successive current phases to the windings with the motor speed being controllable simply by the step pulse rate. The motor can be micro-stepped at low speeds for smooth operation.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a stepping motor with a magnet pole pattern having a predetermined pattern around the circumference of the stepping motor. In one embodiment, the pattern relates to a code having a unique single maximum autocorrelation peak over the period of the code. Example codes include Barker codes, PN codes, Kasami codes, Golomb ruler codes, and other codes. In one embodiment, the rotor and stator have a matching pole pattern. In one embodiment, the drive is arranged to align the poles in an inline configuration, alternatively, the drive may be arranged to align the poles in a diagonal configuration. In a further embodiment, one or more sets of poles are provided on the stator, each set being offset rotationally by a partial pole spacing. In one embodiment, the rotor is initially synchronized with the stator by capturing the rotor using a single unambiguous lock-in position based on the code autocorrelation.

Abstract: An electric motor and conversion system includes a direct current power source, a rotor with two sides and two series of permanent magnets alternating in polarity, two stators on opposing sides of the rotor where each stator has a series of winding coils, magnet position identifiers, and a control system comprising a sensor that cooperates with the magnet position identifiers and a microcontroller to individually controls winding drivers. Preferably, the number of magnets on the rotor does not equal the number of winding coils on the stators. Also preferably, the magnet position identifiers are a series of apertures on the rotor through which signals pass. The conversion system can also include connectors for connecting to an axle, a removable throttle, and electric cables for electrically connecting the components.
