Abstract
Abstract A linear motor is capable of reducing cogging which may be present in the motor. Cogging is an obstruction in realizing constant speed control or high accuracy of position control. The reduction of cogging is accomplished for example by pole location or specific detailed shaping of pole iron plates.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
124 words
A linear motor which comprises: a stator field member having a plurality of permanent magnets and a yoke; a movable member having polyphase windings and a magnetic pole iron plate arranged to confront said stator field member in a plane, in order to relatively displace said movable member with respect to said stator field member by polyphase exciting of said polyphase windings; said magnetic pole iron plate having a geometrical shape obtained by dividing said magnetic pole iron plate into two rectangular regions of equal size and configuration with respect to a geometrical center axis in a displacing direction of said linear motor; and displacing said rectangular regions in a parallel relation in the forward and backward directions of displacement of said linear motor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
124 words

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
49 words
A linear motor as claimed in claim 1, wherein the parallel displacing amount of the rectangular regions in the magnetic pole iron plate having a length of [n+(1/2)]p is represented by p/4, where n is a natural number, and p is a pole pitch of said stator field member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
49 words
A linear motor as claimed in claim 1, wherein the parallel displacing amount of the rectangular regions in the magnetic pole iron plate having a length of np is represented by p/4, where n is a natural number, and p is a pole pitch of said stator field member.
