Abstract

Abstract An apparatus with a synchronous motor which is provided with a diametrically magnetized permanent-magnet rotor. The apparatus comprises a starting device for the motor which consists of a cam disc which is mounted on the shaft of the rotor of the motor and one or more spring-loaded pressure members which co-operate therewith during starting and which are movable transverse to the centre line of the rotor shaft.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 119 words
An apparatus which comprises a synchronous motor which is provided with a permanent-magnet diametrically magentized rotor which is disposed between the free ends of the legs of a U-shaped stator core, which is provided with coils disposed around the legs, characterized in that the apparatus comprises a starting device, which is provided with: a cam disc which is mounted on the shaft of the rotor, one or more pressure members which during starting co-operate with the cam disc, which are movable transverse to the centre line of the rotor shaft and which are movably connected to stationary parts which are connected to the stator, and resilient means for loading said pressure members in the direction towards the cam disc.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 119 words
An apparatus which comprises a synchronous motor which is provided with a permanent-magnet diametrically magentized rotor which is disposed between the free ends of the legs of a U-shaped stator core, which is provided with coils disposed around the legs, characterized in that the apparatus comprises a starting device, which is provided with: a cam disc which is mounted on the shaft of the rotor, one or more pressure members which during starting co-operate with the cam disc, which are movable transverse to the centre line of the rotor shaft and which are movably connected to stationary parts which are connected to the stator, and resilient means for loading said pressure members in the direction towards the cam disc.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 81 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that during operation of the synchronous motor the pressure members co-operate with the cam disc and that the mechanical vibration system, which comprise each of said pressure member and the movable parts connected thereto, as well as the resilient means have a resonant frequency which is substantially higher than the frequency with which each of said pressure members during operation of the motor is excited by said cam disposed in cam disc.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 75 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the cam disc is provided with two cams which are diametrically opposed to each other, two pressure members which are disposed opposite each other are provided, the pressure members consist of pressure rollers, the pressure rollers are each rotatably disposed in a movable slide, and each slide is loaded in the direction of the rotor shaft with the aid of a helically wound pressure spring.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 64 words
An apparatus as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the apparatus further comprises: a manually movable actuating member for switching on and off the motor, and movable means which are mechanically connected to the actuating member for lifting the pressure members off the cam disc against the pressure of said resilient means at the end of the switching-on movement of the actuating member.
