The present disclosure is directed to an electric generator and motor transmission system that is capable of operating with high energy, wide operating range and extremely variable torque and RPM conditions. In accordance with various embodiments, the disclosed system is operable to: dynamically change the output “size” of the motor/generator by modularly engaging and disengaging rotor/stator sets as power demands increase or decrease; activate one stator or another within the rotor/stator sets as torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements change; and/or change from parallel to series winding configurations or the reverse through sets of 2, 4, 6 or more parallel, three-phase, non-twisted coil windings with switchable separated center tap to efficiently meet torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements.

An apparatus for uninterruptible power supply (UPS) comprises a rotating electric machine having a generator winding and a plurality of motor windings. The motor windings of the plurality of motor windings are electrically insulated from the generator winding and from one another. The UPS further comprises, for each motor winding, an energy storage for electric energy and an inverter which outputs an alternating current and via which the energy storage is connected to the respective motor winding.

A rotary motor includes a first stator including a plurality of first cores and a first coil, a signal of any one of a first phase, a second phase, and a third phase forming a three-phase alternating current flowing to the first coil, a second stator including a plurality of second cores and a second coil, a signal of any one of the first phase, the second phase, and the third phase forming the three-phase alternating current flowing to the second coil, and a rotor disposed between the first stator and the second stator via a gap and including a plurality of magnets arranged side by side in a circumferential direction around a rotation axis. A center of gravity of the first core around which the first coil to which the signal flows is wound and a center of gravity of the second core around which the second coil to which a signal of the same phase as the phase of the signal flowing to the first coil flows is wound are shifted from each other in the circumferential direction.

An electrical machine with two or more stators is proposed. One stator (1) is stationary and is fixed to the body (4) of the machine, and the second stator (6) is movable and can rotate freely to both the rotor (2) and the stationary stator (1). The movable stator (6) is self-orienting according to the lines of the magnetic field created by the electric windings and/or permanent magnets of the stationary stator (1). The movable stator (6) concentrates and shapes up the magnetic field B so that the magnetic lines are almost perpendicular to the rotor windings. The movable stator (6) does not rotate relative to the magnetic field of the stationary stator (1) and the magnetic field in it does not change, there is no continuous re-magnetization, magnetic hysteresis is avoided and no eddy currents are generated, due to which the losses and heating of the machine are reduced. The movable stator (6) may comprise permanent magnets to increase the magnetic field in the rotor active zones (2).
