Abstract
Abstract A collectorless direct current outer rotor motor with a substantially cylindrical air gap (14), particularly for driving magnetic plate accumulators. The rotor (16) of the motor (10) supports a permanently-magnetized exciter magnet (13, 13") having at least two pairs of poles and a permanently-magnetized control magnet (18, 18', 18"). At least one detector (20, 34, 26) of rotary position cooperates with the control magnet, and is responsive to the magnetic field to sense the position of the rotor. There is also provided commutating means (32) responsive to the detector of the rotary position, and a stator winding means (12) connected to the commutating means. A control pulse generator stage (21,29; 35,36; 47,55) adapted to generate one pulse only per each revolution of the rotor (16) is coordinated with the control magnet (18, 18', 18").

Claim 1
Independent Claim
191 words
A collectorless direct current outer rotor motor with a substantially cylindrical air gap, particularly for driving magnetic plate accumulators, comprising a rotor, said rotor supporting a permanently magnetized exciter magnet having at least two pairs of poles and a permanently magnetized control magnet, at least one detector of rotary position, said detector cooperating with the control magnet and being responsive to the magnetic field to sense the position of the rotor, commutating means responsive to the detector of the rotary position, and a stator winding means connected to the commutating means, characterized by a control pulse generator stage (21,29; 35,36; 47,55) adapted to generate one pulse only per each revolution of the rotor (16) and coordinated with the control magnet (18, 18', 18"), the exciter magnet (13) and the control magnet (18') comprising each the same number of pairs of poles with the same pole width, the field course (37) having a discontinuity (38) within the range of a pole of the control magnet (18'), and in addition to the detector of the rotary position (34), the provision of another detector of the rotary position (35) responsive only to field discontinuity.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
191 words
A collectorless direct current outer rotor motor with a substantially cylindrical air gap, particularly for driving magnetic plate accumulators, comprising a rotor, said rotor supporting a permanently magnetized exciter magnet having at least two pairs of poles and a permanently magnetized control magnet, at least one detector of rotary position, said detector cooperating with the control magnet and being responsive to the magnetic field to sense the position of the rotor, commutating means responsive to the detector of the rotary position, and a stator winding means connected to the commutating means, characterized by a control pulse generator stage (21,29; 35,36; 47,55) adapted to generate one pulse only per each revolution of the rotor (16) and coordinated with the control magnet (18, 18', 18"), the exciter magnet (13) and the control magnet (18') comprising each the same number of pairs of poles with the same pole width, the field course (37) having a discontinuity (38) within the range of a pole of the control magnet (18'), and in addition to the detector of the rotary position (34), the provision of another detector of the rotary position (35) responsive only to field discontinuity.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
112 words
The collectorless direct current outer rotor motor according to claim 1, characterized by the fact that the control magnet (18) is so radially asymmetrically magnetized in circumferential direction that it has only one pole in the said direction of magnetization, the pole width of said one pole of the control magnet coinciding with the pole width of the exciter magnet (13), and further characterized in that another detector of rotary position (21) is located diametrically opposite to the said detector of rotary position (20), and that a circuit stage (30) adapted to add up the output signals of both detectors of rotary position is connected in series with the commutating means (32).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
28 words
The collectorless direct current outer rotor motor according to claim 1, characterized by an additional magnet (36) coordinated with the control magnet (18') to form the field discontinuity.
