Abstract

Abstract A large number of teeth are formed on the outer circumference of a rotor. A stator is disposed around the rotor. The stator has multiple magnetic poles whose number is n times the number of phases. Each pole has formed on its surface a plurality of teeth at a pitch equal to the rotor tooth pitch. The teeth mounted on the adjacent magnetic poles are selected to deviate in pitch one-half or thereabout from the rotor teeth and the adjacent poles are to be opposite phases from each other.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
A hybrid type low-speed high-torque stepping motor comprising a rotor having a large number of teeth formed on an outer circumference thereof, and a stator disposed around the rotor and facing the teeth of the rotor, whose number is n times a number of phases, each pole having formed a plurality of teeth on a surface thereof at a pitch equal to the rotor tooth pitch, adjacent poles are wound by coils in opposite directions, respectively, and provide opposite phases, wherein each of the adjacent magnetic poles have teeth thereof deviated from the motor teeth by about one-half of the tooth pitch, the teeth on each pole being formed in a substantially identical configuration.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
A hybrid type low-speed high-torque stepping motor comprising a rotor having a large number of teeth formed on an outer circumference thereof, and a stator disposed around the rotor and facing the teeth of the rotor, whose number is n times a number of phases, each pole having formed a plurality of teeth on a surface thereof at a pitch equal to the rotor tooth pitch, adjacent poles are wound by coils in opposite directions, respectively, and provide opposite phases, wherein each of the adjacent magnetic poles have teeth thereof deviated from the motor teeth by about one-half of the tooth pitch, the teeth on each pole being formed in a substantially identical configuration.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 32 words
A low-speed high-torque motor according to claim 1, wherein the adjacent magnetic poles are arranged so that permeance variations between opposite phases are reduced and cogging torque of the motor is reduced.
