Solar trackers that may be advantageously employed on sloped and/or variable terrain to rotate solar panels to track motion of the sun across the sky include bearing assemblies and other mechanical features configured to address mechanical challenges posed by the sloped and/or variable terrain that might otherwise prevent or complicate use of solar trackers on such terrain.

A motor device for a vehicle includes a stator, a rotor, a bearing, an inverter, and a controller. The stator is attached into a housing and includes a concentrated winding coil. The rotor includes a permanent magnet. The bearing supports a rotating shaft of the rotor. The inverter controls an energization state of the concentrated winding coil. If a rotational speed of the rotor is greater than a threshold, the controller outputs a control signal to the inverter to execute field weakening control, and thereby makes a potential difference between the housing and the rotating shaft lower than a withstand voltage of the bearing. The control signal controls the energization state of the concentrated winding coil. The field weakening control generates magnetic flux of the concentrated winding coil in a direction of weakening magnetic flux of the permanent magnet.

A drive device includes a motor and an inverter. A motor axis is parallel to an output axis. The inverter is located in a second direction orthogonal to a first direction with respect to the motor axis and extends in a third direction orthogonal to the first and second directions. When viewed from the first direction, a virtual straight line passing through the axes extends in the third direction. An inverter housing portion overlaps the axes when viewed from the second direction, and has a boundary wall on the virtual straight line side in the second direction. In the second direction, a distance between the boundary wall and the output axis is smaller than a distance between the boundary wall and the motor axis. A motor side connection portion has a portion closer to the side opposite to the output axis than the motor axis in the third direction.

All electric motor unit includes an electric motor and a connection module. The electric motor includes motor coils, a stator and a rotor. The electrical connection module includes a power feed bus bar and a neutral bus bar. The power feed bus bar includes power feed collars for each phase, in which terminal portions for each phase are arranged. The neutral bus bar includes a neutral collar in which neutral terminal portions are arranged. When viewed in a direction intersecting with a second cross section, which intersects with a first cross section containing all the neutral terminal portions, the minimum distance between a second cross-section neutral terminal row on the second cross section and a second cross-section power feed terminal row on the second cross section is greater than zero.

An axial flux machine is described. The machine has a stator comprising a stator housing enclosing a plurality of stator bars disposed circumferentially at intervals around an axis of the machine, and a rotor comprising a set of permanent magnets and mounted for rotation about the axis of the machine. The rotor is spaced apart from the stator along the axis of the machine to define a gap between the stator and rotor and in which magnetic flux in the machine is generally in an axial direction. The machine also comprises a hub assembly comprising a rotating hub and a mount separated by a bearing to permit the hub to rotate relative to the mount, the rotating hub comprising a hub flange and the mount comprising a mount flange, each of the flanges being spaced axially apart from one another. The machine further comprises a bulkhead for mounting the hub assembly and stator, wherein the bulkhead is mounted to the mount flange of the hub assembly and the stator housing is mounted to the bulkhead. The rotor comprises first and second rotors disposed either side of the stator, the first rotor being mounted to the hub flange and the second rotor being mounted only to the first rotor, the first and second rotors together forming a U-shaped rotor extending across and either side of the stator and being rotatable relative to the stator about the axis of the machine.
