Disclosed is a motor unit that includes: a rotary electrical machine that has a cylindrical stator, a rotor disposed coaxially with the stator, a shaft disposed coaxially with the rotor, and a cylindrical case that houses the stator and the rotor; and a drive unit that has a swell swelling toward the case and is fixed to a circumferential surface that is located in a radial direction of the rotor and is the case. The case has a recess that corresponds to the swell.

In a method for operating an electric machine with at least two coils and a magnetizable, movable core such as an armature or a rotor, a current of a constant average value is applied from a direct current source at the coils in such a way that the device is operated in the magnetic saturation range of the core. More particularly, one linear and one rotational actuator is proposed for such an operating mode.

A propulsion system for an aircraft, which has a chassis, a propeller able to move in rotation about an axis of rotation, a main gear as one with the propeller, an electric generator, at least one linear electric motor having a fixed element and a slider able to move in translation, for each linear electric motor, a secondary gear meshing with the main gear and mounted to be able to move in rotation about an axis of rotation perpendicular to the axis of rotation, and a rod of which one end is articulated on the corresponding slider and of which the other end is articulated on the corresponding secondary gear at an articulation that is offset with respect to the axis of rotation of the secondary gear.

An electric fan for producing thrust to propel an aircraft is disclosed. The electric fan comprises a stator, a fan rotor rotatably mounted relative to the stator and an electric motor mounted to the stator and drivingly engaged with the fan rotor to cause rotation of the fan rotor relative to the stator. The fan rotor comprises an annular body defining a flow passage therethrough and a plurality of fan blades disposed in the flow passage and mounted for common rotation with the annular body about a fan rotation axis. The electric motor has a motor rotation axis that differs from the fan rotation axis.

The present invention discloses a power supply semi-trailer for electric drive fracturing equipment, including a combination of a gas turbine engine, a generator and a rectifying unit, the generator outputs a winding configuration and a voltage required for the rectifying units directly to obviate conventional rectifier transformer equipment. The rectifying unit is connected to the inversion unit through a common DC bus, so that the common DC bus can separately drive multiple inversion units, thus decreasing the wirings of power supply lines. A high voltage inversion unit is disposed on a gooseneck of the electric drive semi-trailer to optimize the spatial arrangement of equipment. The entire power supply equipment has a compact structure, occupies a small area, and is simple in wiring.

A transport device in the form of a planar motor having at least one transport segment which forms a transport plane and having at least one transport unit, which can be moved at least two-dimensionally in the transport plane, to allow more versatile process management, is provided in the transport device. At least one coupling apparatus for releasably coupling the transport unit to the coupling unit is arranged on the transport unit and, on the coupling unit in each case, the transport unit and the coupling unit can be coupled, at least temporarily, by the coupling apparatuses to form an assembly by way of a relative movement in the transport plane. The coupling apparatuses interact in the coupled assembly in order to limit a relative movement between the transport unit and the coupling unit in at least one degree of freedom of movement.

The stator includes a stator core, a support electric wire formed by one or more conductive wires, and a drive electric wire formed by one or more conductive wires. The stator core includes an annular shaped back yoke and a plurality of teeth on an inner periphery of the back yoke. The support electric wire is disposed so as to pass through a plurality of slots respectively formed between the teeth, and forms a winding portion that generates an electromagnetic force for supporting the rotor in a non-contact manner by being energized. The drive electric wire is disposed so as to pass through the plurality of slots, and forms a winding portion that generates an electromagnetic force for rotating the rotor by being energized. A cross-sectional area per conductive wire of the support electric wire differs from a cross-sectional area per conductive wire of the drive electric wire.

In a rotor, magnetic poles having a pair of first magnets and second magnets are provided along a circumferential direction. The magnetic pole includes a pair of first flux barrier portions radially outside the first magnets, and a pair of second flux barrier portions between the pair of first flux barrier portions in the circumferential direction. The first flux barrier portion has a first end close to the adjacent second flux barrier portion. The second flux barrier portion has a second end close to the adjacent first flux barrier portion. A relative position of the first end in the circumferential direction with respect to a circumferential center of the magnetic pole is different between the adjacent magnetic poles. A relative position of the second end in the circumferential direction with respect to the circumferential center of the magnetic pole is different between the adjacent magnetic poles.

An electric device has a driveshaft with at least one stator cylinder positioned between opposing, curvilinear shaped cams mounted on the driveshaft, where the center axis of the stator cylinder is parallel with but spaced apart from the driveshaft axis. A magnet assembly is disposed in each end of the stator cylinder, with one magnet assembly engaging one cam and the other magnet assembly engaging the other cam. Each magnet assembly includes a cam follower that can move along a curvilinear shaped cam. A magnet slide arm attached to the cam reciprocates magnets carried on the magnet slide arm through electromagnetic windings disposed around the stator cylinder. An electrical input delivered to the windings can reciprocate the arm, driving the cams to rotate the driveshaft. Alternatively, rotation of the driveshaft can be used to reciprocate the arm to induce electric current in the windings.

A vertical magnetic power generator has a base, a driving shaft vertically mounted in the base, at least one electricity generation module mounted in the base and connected with the driving shaft, and multiple magnetic levitation modules mounted in the base and connected with the driving shaft. Each magnetic levitation module includes a magnetic ring and a conical magnetic block disposed in the magnetic ring. The conical magnetic block and a conical hole of the magnetic ring both taper off from top to bottom. The magnetic levitation modules provide upward axial magnetic levitation forces and radial damping forces exerting toward the driving shaft to allow the driving shaft to balance a total weight applied on the driving shaft. Thus, the driving shaft is able to be vertically levitated in the base magnetically and stably rotates at high speed almost without friction loss and without shifting or vibrating.
