Abstract

Abstract A dynamoelectric machine capable of operating in a motor mode or in a generator mode and having coaxial inner and outer stators and a pair of end stators with each stator being provided preferably with magnetic flux producing permanent magnets. The rotor is disposed in the magnetic gap between the inner and outer stators and the end stators and comprises a plurality of radially disposed coils, wound magnetic cores and intermediary coilless magnetic cores disposed between consecutive coil wound cores.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 224 words
In a dynamoelectric machine having a rotatably mounted shaft and a rotor for rotation in unison with said shaft, the combination comprising: support means mounted on said shaft for rotation therewith; a plurality of magnetically permeable cores mounted on said support means; a plurality of electrical coil windings each wound around every other magnetically permeable core and electrically connected such that an electric current circulating therethrough causes magnetic fields all directed in the same direction in said every other core and a magnetic field directed in an opposite direction in every one of the remaining cores; a frame having end plates, said shaft being journaled in said end plates; a plurality of permanent magnets forming an outer stator mounted on said frame and forming radially directed magnetic fields, the direction of each magnetic field being radially opposite to the direction of the magnetic field contiguous therewith; at least one inner stator support member affixed to one of said end plates coaxially to said rotor; and a plurality of permanent magnets mounted on said inner stator support member and forming radially directed magnetic fields, the direction of each magnetic field contiguous therewith, each magnetic field formed by the inner stator magnets being radially aligned and radially opposite in direction to a magnetic field formed by the outer stator magnets and forming therebetween a magnetic gap.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 224 words
In a dynamoelectric machine having a rotatably mounted shaft and a rotor for rotation in unison with said shaft, the combination comprising: support means mounted on said shaft for rotation therewith; a plurality of magnetically permeable cores mounted on said support means; a plurality of electrical coil windings each wound around every other magnetically permeable core and electrically connected such that an electric current circulating therethrough causes magnetic fields all directed in the same direction in said every other core and a magnetic field directed in an opposite direction in every one of the remaining cores; a frame having end plates, said shaft being journaled in said end plates; a plurality of permanent magnets forming an outer stator mounted on said frame and forming radially directed magnetic fields, the direction of each magnetic field being radially opposite to the direction of the magnetic field contiguous therewith; at least one inner stator support member affixed to one of said end plates coaxially to said rotor; and a plurality of permanent magnets mounted on said inner stator support member and forming radially directed magnetic fields, the direction of each magnetic field contiguous therewith, each magnetic field formed by the inner stator magnets being radially aligned and radially opposite in direction to a magnetic field formed by the outer stator magnets and forming therebetween a magnetic gap.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 28 words
The combination of claim 1, wherein each of said cores is an elongated flat member having its axis of elongation substantially parallel to the axis of said shaft.
