Abstract
Abstract In an electric motor with a stationary and a movable active motor part, one of the two active motor parts comprising a motor winding and the other a motor magnet, an air gap being formed between said active motor parts. The motor winding (9) is built up on a synthetic resin carrier foil and is formed through local removal of copper material with which the synthetic resin foil (23) had previously been fully coated. The synthetic resin carrier foil (23) and the planar coils (28) adhering thereto are provided with an adhesive filler material (30) such that the adhesive filler material (30) fills up the gaps (26) formed between the individual conductor tracks through the removal of the copper material. The assembly thus stabilized is wound into an evenly rounded cylinder.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
109 words
A multiphase electric motor comprising a stationary part and movable active motor parts, the active motor parts including a motor winding for each phase and a motor magnet, an air gap being formed between said active motor parts, each motor winding built on a synthetic resin foil and formed through local removal of copper material with which the synthetic resin foil had previously been fully coated to form planar coils having individual conductor tracks mutually spaced from each other by gaps created by the local removal of the copper material with adhesive filler material filling all gaps so as to interconnect and thereby improve the stability of the tracks.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
109 words
A multiphase electric motor comprising a stationary part and movable active motor parts, the active motor parts including a motor winding for each phase and a motor magnet, an air gap being formed between said active motor parts, each motor winding built on a synthetic resin foil and formed through local removal of copper material with which the synthetic resin foil had previously been fully coated to form planar coils having individual conductor tracks mutually spaced from each other by gaps created by the local removal of the copper material with adhesive filler material filling all gaps so as to interconnect and thereby improve the stability of the tracks.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
The multiphase electric motor as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that the adhesive filler material filling the gaps has a stability such that the individual conductor tracks of the coils are interconnected thereby again with a dimensional stability as if said gaps were still filled with the removed copper.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
31 words
The multiphase electric motor as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that the adhesive filler material also covers upper surfaces of the planar coils with a layer of adhesive filler material.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
22 words
The multiphase electric motor as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that a polymerizing glue is used as the adhesive filler material.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
25 words
The multiphase electric motor as claimed in claim 2, characterized in that the adhesive filler material has been provided by silk-screen printing or roller coating.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
13 words
Hard disk drive provided with the multiphase electric motor according to claim 1.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
28 words
The multiphase electric motor as claimed in claim 1, wherein each motor winding is wound into an evenly rounded cylinder and is concentric with all other motor windings.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
28 words
The hard disk drive as claimed in claim 6, wherein each motor winding is wound into an evenly rounded cylinder and is concentric with all other motor windings.
