1Ease of operation

If a curved stator module is used to enable direction change, then the mover can change direction through the curved stator module, but the mover is prone to motion interference and collisions with the curved armature winding, leading to damage

Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of operationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a straight portion as an intermediary section between the arc-shaped curved portion and the linear armature winding. This straight portion acts as a transition zone that mediates the connection between curved and linear sections, allowing the mover to smoothly transition from curved to linear motion without direct collision with the armature winding, thus preventing damage while maintaining direction changing capability

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The armature winding is segmented into distinct portions: an arc-shaped curved portion for direction change, a straight portion for transition, and a linear portion for normal operation. This segmentation allows each portion to be optimized for its specific function, with the straight portion specifically designed to prevent collision between the mover and the armature winding during transition

AI summary

A curved stator module and a magnetic drive conveying system are disclosed. The curved stator module includes a curved stator, which has a curved stator body and a curved armature winding arranged on the body. The curved armature winding includes an avoidance portion and an arc-shaped curved portion. The avoidance portion has a first end, a second end, a first inner side surface, and a first outer side surface. The arc-shaped curved portion includes a second inner side surface and a second outer side surface. The first end splices with a linear armature winding of a linear stator module. The first inner side surface connects to the second inner side surface. The second end splices with the arc-shaped curved portion. The first inner side surface extends obliquely from the first end toward the second end and the first outer side surface.
