Abstract

Abstract Disclosed is a coreless motor comprising a rotor having a plurality of flat-type loop coils arranged on a rotor substrate, a motor housing having a journal bearing for rotatably supporting said rotor, and a stator which includes a pair of permanent magnets disposed facing said rotor in said motor housing, characterized in that the angle θ of said flat-type loop coil flared toward itself from the rotor axis is so set as to satisfy the inequality: ##EQU1## WHERE N IS THE NUMBER OF POLE MEMBERS OF A COMMUTATOR AND 2P IS THE NUMBER OF MAGNETIC POLE MEMBERS OF A STATOR.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 173 words
A coreless motor comprising: a rotary shaft, a rotor mounted on said rotary shaft and having a rotor substrate and a plurality of flat type loop coils disposed on the rotor substrate, a motor housing including a magnetic yoke made of a magnetic material and having at least two spaced journal bearings for rotatably supporting said rotary shaft, a stator including a pair of permanent magnetic poles opposed to said rotor within said housing so as to provide a closed magnetic flux path in which a magnetic flux emanated from one pole of said pair of permanent magnetic poles passes through said rotor and yoke and enters into the other pole, and a generally cylindrical thrusting magnetic member attached to said rotor and being located in a space between said rotary shaft and said permanent magnetic poles, said magnetic member being displaceable axially of said rotor by a magnetic flux produced by said permanent magnetic poles of said stator so as to be thrusted toward either of said at least two journal bearings.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 173 words
A coreless motor comprising: a rotary shaft, a rotor mounted on said rotary shaft and having a rotor substrate and a plurality of flat type loop coils disposed on the rotor substrate, a motor housing including a magnetic yoke made of a magnetic material and having at least two spaced journal bearings for rotatably supporting said rotary shaft, a stator including a pair of permanent magnetic poles opposed to said rotor within said housing so as to provide a closed magnetic flux path in which a magnetic flux emanated from one pole of said pair of permanent magnetic poles passes through said rotor and yoke and enters into the other pole, and a generally cylindrical thrusting magnetic member attached to said rotor and being located in a space between said rotary shaft and said permanent magnetic poles, said magnetic member being displaceable axially of said rotor by a magnetic flux produced by said permanent magnetic poles of said stator so as to be thrusted toward either of said at least two journal bearings.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 23 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said at least two journal bearings are respectively disposed on opposite sides of said rotor.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 45 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said generally cylindrical thrusting magnetic member is downwardly displaced relative to said permanent magnetic poles of said stator so that the lower extremity thereof lies below the lower extremity of said permanent magnetic poles of said stator.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said permanent magnetic poles of said stator are bonded by means of a bonding agent to the inner surface of the motor housing used as a yoke.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 45 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said motor housing is formed of a magnetic material which is also used as said yoke and has a stepped portion to which a side face portion of each permanent magnetic pole of said stator is engaged.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 45 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 further comprising an annular spacer disposed on the inner surface of said motor housing, said annular spacer having an outer peripheral surface with which the inner side surface of each permanent magnetic pole of said stator is contacted.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 28 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 further comprising a pair of spacers located between and contacting the side-end faces of said permanent magnetic poles of said stator.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 26 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said motor housing has two recesses into which said permanent magnetic poles of said stator are respectively received.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 77 words
A coreless motor according to claim 1 wherein said motor housing has a side wall section and a stepped portion to which a side face portion of each permanent magnetic pole of said stator is engaged, and further comprising a spacer interposed between the side wall section of said motor housing and the outer side face of said permanent magnetic poles of said stator, to thereby prevent the movement of said permanent magnetic poles of said stator.
