Abstract
Abstract A flat coreless motor and tachogenerator assembly comprises a rotary motor comprised of a disk-shaped rotor having a plurality of coreless coils, a shaft connected to the rotor, a stator magnet magnetically coupled to the rotor, and a housing containing therein the rotor and stator magnet. The shaft is rotatably supported at one end by a bearing holder which has a closed end portion and a tubular portion extending from the closed end portion into the housing. A bearing disposed within the closed end portion of the bearing holder rotatably mounts the end of the shaft. A tachogenerator is disposed between the motor and the bearing and comprises a tachogenerator rotor connected to the shaft and positioned within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion, and a tachogenerator stator disposed within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion in spaced-apart magnetically coupled relationship with respect to the tachogenerator rotor.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
164 words
A flat coreless motor and tachogenerator assembly comprising: a rotary motor comprised of a disk-shaped rotor having a plurality of coreless coils, a shaft connected to the rotor, a stator magnet magnetically coupled to the rotor, a housing having disposed therein the rotor and stator magnet, and supporting means rotatably supporting the shaft, said supporting means including a bearing holder connected to the housing and having a closed end portion and a tubular portion extending from the closed end portion into the housing, and bearing means disposed within the closed end portion of the bearing holder for rotatably mounting one end of the shaft; and a tachogenerator disposed between the motor and bearing means and comprised of a tachogenerator rotor connected to said shaft for rotation therewith and being positioned within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion, and a tachogenerator stator disposed within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion in spaced-apart magnetically coupled relationship with respect to the tachogenerator rotor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
164 words
A flat coreless motor and tachogenerator assembly comprising: a rotary motor comprised of a disk-shaped rotor having a plurality of coreless coils, a shaft connected to the rotor, a stator magnet magnetically coupled to the rotor, a housing having disposed therein the rotor and stator magnet, and supporting means rotatably supporting the shaft, said supporting means including a bearing holder connected to the housing and having a closed end portion and a tubular portion extending from the closed end portion into the housing, and bearing means disposed within the closed end portion of the bearing holder for rotatably mounting one end of the shaft; and a tachogenerator disposed between the motor and bearing means and comprised of a tachogenerator rotor connected to said shaft for rotation therewith and being positioned within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion, and a tachogenerator stator disposed within the interior of the bearing holder tubular portion in spaced-apart magnetically coupled relationship with respect to the tachogenerator rotor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
24 words
An assembly according to claim 1; wherein the tachogenerator rotor and stator are completely disposed within the length of the bearing holder tubular portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
14 words
An assembly according to claim 1 wherein the tachogenerator is disposed within said housing.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
69 words
An assembly according to claim 1 wherein the tachogenerator stator comprises a coil frame, a ring-shaped coil wound on the coil frame, and upper and lower yokes sandwiching therebetween the ring-shaped coil and each having a plurality of comb-like poles disposed such that the poles of the upper yokes are alternately disposed with respect to the poles of the lower yoke around the inner side of the ring-shaped coil.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
51 words
An assembly according to claim 4; wherein the tachogenerator stator includes a plurality of projections projecting from the coil frame with each projection extending between an adjoining pair of upper and lower yoke poles to effectively position the upper and lower yokes in a predetermined position with respect to one another.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
68 words
