Abstract:
An inner rotor motor includes a rotor which has a plurality of circumferentially arranged magnetic poles and a stator which is positioned outside a circumference of the rotor and has a stator core which includes a plurality of magnetic pole teeth which face the rotor in an opposed manner and arranges coils for respective magnetic pole teeth. In such a constitution, the stator is arranged within a center angle of 180null with respect to a center of rotation of the rotor. Further, pitches of the magnetic pole teeth in the rotor circumferential direction along which respective rotor facing surfaces of the magnetic pole teeth are arranged are set smaller than pitches of the rotor in the rotor circumferential direction along which the magnetic poles of the rotor are arranged.
Abstract:
A rotary electric motor has a stator core (1) with salient poles (4, 3), some of them ferromagnetic and some of them permanent-magnetic, which are spaced-apart and which are all simultaneously magnetizable by means of a magnetizing winding (5A, 5B). The rotor core has either reluctance poles (7) with intervening pole gaps and constant pole pitch, or permanent-magnetic poles (10) with constant pole pitch and without intervening pole gaps, alternating poles being of opposite polarities. Each reluctance pole (7) or permanent-magnetic pole (10) has a width which over a portion of the pole corresponds to respectively one-half of or the full pole pitch and is smaller over the remaining portion so that each pole (7 or 10) has a part (7B or 10A) which projects in a direction common to all poles. The ferromagnetic and permanent-magnetic poles (3, 4) of the stator (1) have a width corresponding to the width of the narrower portion of the poles (7 or 10) of the rotor (2). The number of permanent-magnetic poles (3) and, optionally, also the number of ferromagnetic poles (4) of the stator (1) is smaller than the number of reluctance poles (7) or permanent-magnetic poles (10) of the rotor (2), the positioning of the poles being such that when the motor is running, all ferromagnetic stator poles (4) will be simultaneously positioned opposite respective rotor poles (7 or 10) and all permanent-magnetic stator poles (30 likewise are simultaneously positioned opposite respective rotor poles (7 or 10).

Abstract:
A small motor for use in an information-communication appratus, an audio-visual apparatus or the like, and a motor for use in a portable pager and a portable telephone or the like for generating vibrations to be transmitted to a human body, the motors being efficient, small and thin in size, and having a high degree of freedom when mounted on an apparatus. To realize the motor as described above, K pieces of (K indicating any integer greater than one) magnetic units (4a, 4b, 4c) having N and S poles magnetized alternately are mounted on a rotor in a circumferential direction, and K magnetic units are axially stacked in K stages and integrally retained on a shaft (6), and this rotor is rotatably supported on a pair of bearings (9a, 9b). Cores (1a, 1b, 1c) each have a salient pole (7a, 7b, 7c) wound around with coils (3a, 3b, 3c) in K stages so as to correspond to each of the magnetic units. The magnetized position of the N and S poles of the magnetic unit at each stage deviates relative to one another in a circumferential direction so as to set the phase of induced voltage generated on the salient pole wound around with the coil in each stage to a phase suitable for rotating a magnet unit corresponding to a coil in that stage.
Abstract:
A motor has a stator and a rotor, the stator having cores and drive coils which generate magnetic fields for rotating the rotor. The stator also has a yoke surrounding the rotor and the rotor is positioned such that it is closer to one part of the outer periphery of the yoke than another part of the outer periphery of the yoke. Such a motor is particularly suitable for use in a disk drive unit as a spindle motor for rotating the disk. Then an actuator for moving a head may be located adjacent the part of the outer periphery of the yoke which is closest to the rotor. This permits the head to approach closely the axis of rotation of the disk without the spindle motor interferring with the movement of the head. The continuous yoke prevents magnetic flux leakage from the spindle motor interferring with the actuator. The actuator may itself have a yoke integral with the yoke of the spindle motor, and/or other components in common.
Abstract:
A motor rotor structure includes a rotor irone core composed of a rotor section. The circumference of the rotor section is uniformly distributed with magnetic tile grooves. The magnetic tile grooves are located near the axis of the rotor section, and there are two limit edges that contract towards the axis of the rotor section. The two limit edges are connected to two convex edges extending towards the periphery of the rotor section. Between the two convex edges, there are limit protrusions that protrude towards the periphery of the rotor section. A limiting protrusion enables the permanent magnet to be stably placed in the magnetic tile groove, limiting its displacement during rotation and maintains the stability of the motor.
