A power storage device includes a drive unit, a generating unit, and a power supply unit. The drive unit has a rotating shaft and is disposed in a housing. The rotating shaft is provided with a plurality of first permanent magnets. The housing is provided with a first auxiliary magnet corresponding to the first permanent magnets. Corresponding surfaces of the first permanent magnets and the first auxiliary magnet have the same magnetic pole. Through the repulsive force between the first permanent magnets and the first auxiliary magnet to generate a magnetic levitation effect, the rotating shaft can generate a corresponding rotation and the rotating shaft can be rotated more smoothly to increase its rotational speed and smoothness to improve generating efficiency and reduce electricity consumption.

The electrical machine according to the invention is a dual machine, and comprises a first machine which can be reversed and a second machine functioning through induction between two windings. The second machine can be used for de-icing a propeller, the induction-receiving winding being mounted on the propeller shaft. The first electrical machine can function as an electrical engine to taxi the aircraft. In certain embodiments, the winding mounted on the stator is common to the two machines and different magnetic flows are utilised to control them. A separate functioning of the two machines and a very good integration into the aircraft engine, with space-saving and low mass, are possible.
