The invention relates to an electromagnetic device for eliminating a yarn loop during the process of winding yarn on a cross-wound bobbin on a spinning machine at a constant speed of the yarn production, which comprises a cylindrical two pole magnet (1), which is connected to a compensatory arm (5) of a yarn loop and which is mounted rotatably about its longitudinal axis between two pole pieces (20, 21) of a magnetic core (2) of a coil (4), which are situated opposite each other, whereby on the side remote from the cylindrical two-pole magnet (1) and the pole pieces (20, 21), the magnetic core (2) passes through the electrical coil (4) connected to a source of electrical energy and to a control device. The magnetic core (2) is interrupted in the cavity of the coil (4) and a two pole permanent magnet (3) is located at the point of its interruption.

A rotary machine for the treatment of containers is described. This rotary machine comprises a stationary underframe, a rotatable container table for receiving the containers, a motor designed as an internal rotor for direct drive of the container table, a bearing for supporting the container table and/or a non-rotatably connected supporting structure on the underframe radially outside the motor, and a rotary encoder for determining the rotational position of the container table. By positioning the rotary encoder radially outside the motor, the accuracy of the rotary position determination can be improved, especially for rotary machines with comparatively large pitch diameters and the accessibility of the rotary encoder for maintenance measures.

A torque motor has a mechanical reference member, an armature, and a field assembly. The field assembly includes field pole pieces defining a pole opening, and the armature is mounted to the mechanical reference member for rotation about a motor axis and extends into the pole opening with respective gaps to the field pole pieces. The field assembly is secured to the mechanical reference member and spaced therefrom by elastically deformable flexures, deformed sufficiently to locate the armature at a predetermined position within the pole openings with corresponding lengths of the gaps. During manufacture, a load can be applied to move the field assembly relative to the mechanical reference member against the deformation force of the flexures to locate the pole opening relative to the armature pole piece such that the gaps of desired lengths are formed.

A multi-degree-of-freedom electromagnetic machine includes a stator, an armature, and a control. The stator includes a first stator conductor, a second stator conductor, and a third stator conductor. The armature is disposed adjacent to, and is movable relative to, the stator. The armature includes an armature conductor and a plurality of magnets, where each magnet has at least one of its magnetic poles facing the surface. The control is coupled to the first, second, and third stator conductors, and is configured to supply direct current (DC) to the first, second, and third stator conductors, and to selectively amplitude modulate the DC supplied to one or more of the first, second, and third stator conductors, to thereby electromagnetically couple the armature conductor to the one or more first, second, and third stator conductors.

The invention relates to a torque motor comprising a stator and a rotor that extend along a common central axis. The stator includes an integral magnetic body and at least one pair of radial teeth that extend along the central axis and define slots for receiving stator windings, and at least one permanent magnet supported by the integral magnetic body. The torque motor also includes a winding support for the stator windings that has a hollow body that extends along the central axis and that delimits a chamber for receiving the rotor, and cavities for receiving the stator windings. In this way, the stator windings are integrated in the stator by the winding support, fitted with the stator windings, being axially inserted into the integral magnetic body.
