In an electric motor, such as a DC brushless motor or the like, having a permanent magnet in a rotor, each magnetic pole is formed of three permanent magnets, and the permanent magnets are made of at least two kinds of magnetic materials represented by ferrite magnet and rare-earth magnet. Thus, in a permanent magnet rotor type electric motor, a reluctance torque and a magnetic flux density can be selectively established, and cost is reasonable, corresponding to the quality.

An electric motor has an internal ferromagnetic rotor ring and an external stator. Circumferentially distributed cutouts in the rotor receive rectangular permanent magnets each having a width b and height h and the rotor ring is divided into rotor poles. The height h forms the longer side of each magnet and is radial to the motor axis. The magnets are magnetized in the width b direction with like poles oriented toward one another. A magnetic clearance is located between adjacent magnets for each inner portion of a rotor pole. The clearance does not contain magnetic material and in a center region of the rotor poles one support web connects an inner support ring with the particular rotor pole to provide mechanical support.

An axial field motor/generator having a rotor that includes at least three annular discs magnetized to provide multiple sector-shaped poles. Each sector has a polarity opposite that of an adjacent sector, and each sector is polarized through the thickness of the disc. The poles of each magnet are aligned with opposite poles of each adjacent magnet. Metal members adjacent the outermost two magnets contain the flux. The motor/generator also has a stator that includes a stator assembly between each two adjacent magnets. Each stator assembly includes one or more conductors or windings. Although the conductors may be formed of wire having a round, uniform cross-section, they may alternatively be formed of conductors having a tapered cross-section that corresponds to the taper of the sectors in order to maximize the density of the conductor in the gap between axially adjacent poles. The conductors may also alternatively be formed of traces in a printed circuit, which may have one or more layers. Each stator assembly may be removably connectable to another stator assembly to provide modularity in manufacturing and to facilitate selection of the voltage at which the motor/generator is to operate. Electrical contacts, such as pins extending from the casing, may removably connect the conductors of adjacent stator assemblies. A magnet may be dynamically balanced on the shaft by hardening a thin ring of cross-linked resin between the magnet and the shaft while the shaft is spun, using ultraviolet light to polymerize the resin.

An alternator includes a stator having an annular stator core provided with a number of slots extending axially disposed in lines circumferentially so as to open on an inner circumferential side and a stator coil wound into the stator core so as to be installed in the slots, a rotor having a number of claw-shaped magnetic poles for alternately forming north-seeking (N) and south-seeking (S) poles about a rotational circumference, the rotor being rotatably disposed on the inner circumferential side of the stator core, a bracket supporting the rotor and the stator, and a rectifier disposed at a first axial end of the stator and connected to end portions of the stator coil, the rectifier converting alternating current from the stator coil into direct current, wherein a number of slots is two per phase per pole, and the stator coil comprises a number of winding sub-portions in each of which a long strand of wire is wound so as to alternately occupy an inner layer and an outer layer in a slot depth direction within the slots at intervals of a predetermined number of slots by folding back the strand of wire outside the slots at axial end surfaces of the stator core.

A manufacturing method for a rotary electric machine according to the present invention comprises steps of: (1) preforming a coil including a plurality of element coils of an insulated conductor; (2) inserting a first side of a first element coil of the element coils into a first slot of a stator core through an opening of the first slot; (3) inserting a second side of the first element coil into a second slot in which a first side of a second element coil of the element coil has been already inserted; (4) electrically connecting coil ends of a plurality of the coils to each other; and (5) rotatably mounting a rotor inside the stator core.

Coil members are obtained by forming width-reduced portions in a wire material over a predetermined longitudinal range generally centered on cutting positions, then removing an insulation coating from the width-reduced portions, and thereafter cutting the wire material at the width-reduced portions. Coil segments are prepared by bending the coil members into a general U shape. Then the coil segments are inserted into the slots in a stator core, and a stator is obtained by welding together the free end portions of the projecting coil segments.

A powdered magnetic material stator core with embedded stator windings and a method for its manufacture. Embedding the windings within a radially compacted powdered magnetic material stator core enables equivalent or better electromagnetic performance in a significantly reduced size. Radial compaction of the powdered magnetic material minimizes the distortion of the stator windings during compaction.

An armature for an electric motor is constructed from a pair of precision machined copper plates cut in a pattern to produce a series of axially extending surface conductive bands with each band separated from the other by an insulated cutout. The precision machined plates are rolled to form two telescoping, hollow cylinders with each cylinder having a pattern of conductive bands representing a half-electric circuit. The outer surface of the inner cylinder is wrapped with several layers of fiberglass strands for structural stability and insulation. The fiberglass wrapped inner cylinder is telescoped inside the outer cylinder. The outer surface of the telescoped structure is also wrapped with several layers of fiberglass strands for structural stability. The conductive bands from the outer cylinder being the near mirror image of the conductive bands of the inner cylinder are helically coupled to form a complete electrical circuit. The resulting tubular structure is encapsulated in a potting material for further structural stability and insulation. The result is a freestanding ironless core inductive armature coil for a DC motor with brushes. The armature also has a commutator, which is mounted at one end of the coil and is in electrical contact with the helically coupled conductive bands. An insulated flywheel and shaft assembly is mounted inside the coil with the flywheel behind the commutator for motor mounting and operation.

The present invention provides a structure of a rotor for a generator in which a rotor capable of being ground very easily with a high accuracy is incorporated. This structure of a rotor comprises a rotor mounted fixedly on a rotary shaft supported rotatably on housings. The rotor comprises cylindrically arranged members in which segmental members of permanent magnets are assembled together cylindrically, and an outer cylinder provided on an outer circumference of the cylindrically arranged members and comprising windings or woven cloths of fibers. A resin material capable of being ground is packed in clearances between the cylindrically arranged members and outer cylinder and in the clearances in the outer cylinder.

The motor includes a shaft, a rotor fixed to the shaft, and a stator including a stator core that faces the rotor with a certain space therebetween and coils that are attached to the stator core. The stator includes a back yoke, and the stator core having a plurality of teeth that are circumferentially placed in an axial end face of the back yoke so as to stand upright axially of the back yoke, and that are formed of a dust core made of pressed magnetic powder. The above-mentioned teeth are buried axially to a certain depth in the back yoke.

Advantageous motors, such as flux-switching linear synchronous motors (FSLSMs) are provided. In an FSLSM, all magnets can be magnetized in the same direction. In addition, an FSLSM can be yokeless and can have two stators displaced from one another by half a pole pitch. FSLSMs of the subject invention are cost-effective and provide high thrust, and can operate well even under fault conditions.
