Abstract

Abstract A polyphase electric motor including a body mobile relative to a fixed body, one of these bodies carrying an exciter strip formed by a plurality of alternating coil windings aligned with each other and connected to an energizer device including a switch adapted to excite the pluralities of coils alternately, the other body comprising a row of alternating magnets and, one on each side of this row, two magnetic bars determining along the row an airgap of constant width in which the exciter strip is disposed. The permanently magnetized row is disposed parallel to the magnetization directions of the magnets constituting it between two continuous magnetic plates.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim 162 words
A multiphase electric motor comprising: a fixed body; a body mobile with one degree of freedom along a path relative to the fixed body; an exciter strip carried by one of the bodies formed by a set of pluralities of alternately wound coils aligned with each other and incorporating runs perpendicular to the path, there being one plurality of coils per electrical phase, the exciter strip being connected to an energiser device including a switch adapted to excite the pluralities of coils alternately; at least one row incorporated by the other body and formed by a twofold plurality of magnets magnetised transversely to the path and in alternate magnetisation directions and two magnetic bars provided on either side of this row and defining along the row an airgap of constant width in which the exciter strip is disposed; a permanently magnetised row being disposed, parallel to the magnetisation directions of the magnets and disposed, between two plates of a soft magnetic material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 162 words
A multiphase electric motor comprising: a fixed body; a body mobile with one degree of freedom along a path relative to the fixed body; an exciter strip carried by one of the bodies formed by a set of pluralities of alternately wound coils aligned with each other and incorporating runs perpendicular to the path, there being one plurality of coils per electrical phase, the exciter strip being connected to an energiser device including a switch adapted to excite the pluralities of coils alternately; at least one row incorporated by the other body and formed by a twofold plurality of magnets magnetised transversely to the path and in alternate magnetisation directions and two magnetic bars provided on either side of this row and defining along the row an airgap of constant width in which the exciter strip is disposed; a permanently magnetised row being disposed, parallel to the magnetisation directions of the magnets and disposed, between two plates of a soft magnetic material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
The motor according to claim 1, the exciter strip is carried by the fixed body and the permanently magnetised row, the bars the magnetic plates are carried by the mobile body.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 24 words
The motor according to claim 1, wherein the at least one row comprises two permanently magnetised rows one on each side of the airgap.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
The motor according to claim 1, wherein the plates, between which the at least one permanently magnetised row is disposed, are extended so that an adjacent one of said two magnetic bars is also disposed between them.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 42 words
The motor according to claim 1, wherein the mobile body is a rotor mobile in rotation relative to the fixed body forming a stator, and wherein the permanently magnetised row, the exciter strip, the bars and the plates are annular in shape.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 20 words
The motor according to claim 1, wherein the mobile body moves along a linear path relative to the fixed body.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 34 words
The motor according to claim 1, wherein the ratio of the amplitude of each magnet to that of the angular sector of a useful angle of each phase or is between 3/2 and 2/1.
