Abstract
Abstract To reduce the noise level of operation and particularly cyclically recurring attractive forces between the rotor and the stator, the stator stack package is interrupted centrally by a sheet or strip of material different from electrical lamination sheet steel, for example a soft iron insert, or an insert of non-magnetic material such as a strip of bronze, brass, or insulating material.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
126 words
Claw pole-type dynamo electric machine having a stack of stator laminations (12) formed of dynamo electric machine lamination steel sheet material; armature windings (13) located on the stator stack; and a claw pole-type field structure (15) rotatably supported within the stator stack, comprising, means decreasing the axial stator flux concentration flowing through the stator laminations including an intermediate lamella (14) of a material different from said dynamo electric lamination steel sheet material positioned centrally within said stack forming the laminations thus decreasing the magnetic flux concentration in the stator structure, thereby decreasing the flux concentration at a central zone of the stack to reduce the noise level of the machine in operation by decreasing cyclically recurring attraction forces upon rotation of the claw pole-type field structure.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
126 words
Claw pole-type dynamo electric machine having a stack of stator laminations (12) formed of dynamo electric machine lamination steel sheet material; armature windings (13) located on the stator stack; and a claw pole-type field structure (15) rotatably supported within the stator stack, comprising, means decreasing the axial stator flux concentration flowing through the stator laminations including an intermediate lamella (14) of a material different from said dynamo electric lamination steel sheet material positioned centrally within said stack forming the laminations thus decreasing the magnetic flux concentration in the stator structure, thereby decreasing the flux concentration at a central zone of the stack to reduce the noise level of the machine in operation by decreasing cyclically recurring attraction forces upon rotation of the claw pole-type field structure.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
13 words
Machine according to claim 1, wherein the intermediate lamella (14) comprises non-magnetic material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
21 words
Machine according to claim 2, wherein the intermediate lamella (14) comprises a material selected from the group: brass, bronze, fibre, plastics.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
12 words
Machine according to claim 1, wherein the intermediate lamella comprises soft iron.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
59 words
Machine according to claim 1, wherein the intermediate lamella comprises a magnetically responsive material of a dimension and thickness matched to the claw pole-type field structure to have eddy currents induced therein of sufficient intensity to decrease the magnetic flux concentration in the stator structure to a level which reduces the noise level of the machine, in operation thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
30 words
Machine according to claim 5, wherein the intermediately located lamella comprises soft iron having a thickness of two times the thickness each of the laminations (12) forming the stator stack.
