A no-thrust disc permanent magnet biased axial magnetic levitation bearing
By using a permanent magnet biased axial magnetic levitation bearing with no thrust disk design, the problem of structural damage caused by centrifugal force of the thrust disk is solved by superimposing the magnetic field generated by the stator annular iron core permanent magnet and the control winding, and a stable levitation effect with higher speed and lower power consumption is achieved.

AI Technical Summary
The thrust disc of the existing permanent magnet biased axial magnetic levitation bearing is susceptible to centrifugal force under high-speed rotation, which leads to structural damage, vibration and reduced dynamic balance accuracy, limiting the speed increase and increasing equipment maintenance costs.
The design adopts a thrust-free design, using permanent magnets on both sides of the stator toroidal core to establish a bias magnetic field, and generating a control magnetic field through the control winding. The combination of these two technologies in the axial air gap achieves stable levitation of the rotor, avoiding the presence of a large-diameter thrust disk.
It reduces the centrifugal force on the rotor, improves dynamic stability, increases the upper limit of rotational speed, reduces the risk of structural damage, and lowers power consumption and control difficulty.
