Abstract

Abstract The invention generally concerns a DC motor with an armature, several poles and with field coils surrounding said poles. According to the instant invention, each pole includes two pole halves which are displaced from each other in the peripheral sense by a given distance. Pole halves belonging to a given pair are connected to each other by a common pole shoe so that each pole is approximately U-shaped in its radial cross-section with the legs of the U (the pole halves) pointing outwardly. Each pole half is individually surrounded by its own field coil. In general, the principle of the invention is that the pole of a classic DC motor is split in two and that the thus obtained pole halves are displaced symmetrically relative ends of the pole shoe. In this manner, a shorter yoke length Lj 8 , together with lower magnetomotive force in ampere-windings than in a classic DC motor are made possible. Furthermore, a lower coil resistance is obtained, i.e. for identical current consumption there is a lower production of loss heat. The lower number of ampere-windings results in further reduction of the number of windings for an identical current. Hence, the range of applications for a DC motor according to the invention of a given size is broader than for a classic DC motor.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 150 words
A DC motor having a common cylindrical armature for responding to symmetrical magnetic fields for rotation of same, said motor further comprising a predetermined number of poles with pole shoes on the armature side thereof, said pole shoes being integrally connected to said poles, and each pole including two pole halves separated from each other in the peripheral sense by a predetermined space, with each such pole half being surrounded by its own individual field coil and said pole halves of a given pair being integral with a common pole shoe so that each pole is approximately U-shaped in its radial cross-section, whereby the legs of such U point radially outward from said armature; whereby the overall size of said motor is reduced for a given application thereof by reducing the ohmic resistance of the individual field coils while increasing the surface area thereof to reduce heating of said motor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 150 words
A DC motor having a common cylindrical armature for responding to symmetrical magnetic fields for rotation of same, said motor further comprising a predetermined number of poles with pole shoes on the armature side thereof, said pole shoes being integrally connected to said poles, and each pole including two pole halves separated from each other in the peripheral sense by a predetermined space, with each such pole half being surrounded by its own individual field coil and said pole halves of a given pair being integral with a common pole shoe so that each pole is approximately U-shaped in its radial cross-section, whereby the legs of such U point radially outward from said armature; whereby the overall size of said motor is reduced for a given application thereof by reducing the ohmic resistance of the individual field coils while increasing the surface area thereof to reduce heating of said motor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
A DC motor as in claim 1, wherein said predetermined space between said two pole halves of a given pair thereof is equal to the distance between adjacent of said pole halves not of a given pair.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 54 words
A DC motor as in claim 1, wherein the total number of winding in field coils on two pole halves of a given pair of same are approximately equal to the number of windings that would otherwise normally be used for one single pole made up from a given pair of said pole halves.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 48 words
A DC motor as in claim 1, wherein said predetermined number of poles is four, and a resulting motor incorporating said given pairs of pole halves with said predetermined space therebetween, respectively, has a shorter yoke length therefor than a motor which does not incorporate said pole halves.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 25 words
A DC motor as in claim 3 wherein the number of windings on respective pole halves in a given pair of same are approximately equal.
