Abstract

Abstract The stator of this flat magnetized-rotor motor comprises sets of pole pieces, arranged substantially radially, the sets being surrounded by corresponding electrical control coils. Separate yoke portions, having surface portions of axially symmetric design, are arranged in contact with the pole pieces of a corresponding set. The flat portions each consist of two sheet elements, forming between them an angle; the portions are inserted radially in the respective slots of a support portion of a stator element. With this arrangement it is possible to produce high-performance motors, at very low cost and whose dimensions in the radial direction are extremely small.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim 189 words
A polyphase synchronous electric motor comprising a rotor part shaped as a plane annular disc, magnetized axially so as to exhibit, on each of its plane surfaces at least one series of magnetic poles disposed regularly along an annular zone, said rotor part being integral with a shaft of the motor mounted rotatably with respect to a stator assembly, this stator assembly comprising at least two groups of polar parts of a substantially plane configuration disposed substantially radially with respect to the motor shaft at least on one side of the rotor part, each of the polar parts forming part of a respective elementary magnetic circuit, having a gap in which is disposed said rotor part, said stator assembly further comprising at least two electric control coils each surrounding at least one of said groups of polar parts, the stator assembly comprising at least two separate yoke parts shaped substantially as portions of the surface of a revolution cylinder, each yoke part being disposed in contact with the polar parts of a group of polar parts, the yoke parts being comprised of magnetically permeable pieces of bent sheet material.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 189 words
A polyphase synchronous electric motor comprising a rotor part shaped as a plane annular disc, magnetized axially so as to exhibit, on each of its plane surfaces at least one series of magnetic poles disposed regularly along an annular zone, said rotor part being integral with a shaft of the motor mounted rotatably with respect to a stator assembly, this stator assembly comprising at least two groups of polar parts of a substantially plane configuration disposed substantially radially with respect to the motor shaft at least on one side of the rotor part, each of the polar parts forming part of a respective elementary magnetic circuit, having a gap in which is disposed said rotor part, said stator assembly further comprising at least two electric control coils each surrounding at least one of said groups of polar parts, the stator assembly comprising at least two separate yoke parts shaped substantially as portions of the surface of a revolution cylinder, each yoke part being disposed in contact with the polar parts of a group of polar parts, the yoke parts being comprised of magnetically permeable pieces of bent sheet material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 31 words
A motor according to claim 1, wherein the stator assembly comprises stator support portions of a non-magnetic material into which are inserted the polar parts and which support the yoke parts.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 51 words
A motor according to claim 1, wherein each elementary magnetic circuit comprises two polar parts disposed opposite each other, substantially in a radial plane of the motor on both sides of the rotor part, as well as a portion of a yoke part with which the polar parts are in contact.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 37 words
A motor according to claim 1, wherein each polar part is formed by two pieces of non-magnetic sheet, forming between them such an angle that they are each disposed substantially radially with respect to the motor shaft.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 38 words
A motor according to claim 4, wherein said pieces of sheet are inserted into a slot of the support portion formed so as to determine the angular position of each of the two pieces forming a polar part.
