A permanent magnet motor, including: a stator assembly and a rotor assembly. The stator assembly includes: a stator core and a coil winding. The stator core includes: a yoke portion, a plurality of tooth portions, and a plurality of winding slots. The rotor assembly includes: a rotor core, a plurality of permanent magnets, and a rotor sheath. The tooth portions are extended out of the yoke portion. Each winding slot is formed between adjacent tooth portions. The permanent magnets are disposed at intervals on a surface of the rotor core and magnetic poles of two facing sides of adjacent permanent magnets are the same. The rotor sheath is disposed outside the rotor assembly and is divided into at least two segments axially. A magnetic conductivity of a first segment of the rotor sheath is different from a magnetic conductivity of a second segment of the rotor sheath.

An electric motor has a first carrier having an array of electromagnetic elements and a second carrier having electromagnetic elements defining magnetic poles. The first and second carriers each define an axis. An airgap is formed between the first and second carriers when in an operational position. An inner thrust bearing connects the first and second carriers and is arranged to allow relative rotary motion of the carriers. An outer thrust bearing connects the first and second carriers and is arranged to allow relative rotary motion of the carriers. The electromagnetic elements of each of the first and second carriers are arranged radially inward of the outer thrust bearing and radially outward of the inner thrust bearing. The inner thrust bearing and the outer thrust bearing are arranged to maintain the airgap against a magnetic attraction of the electromagnetic elements of the first and second carriers.

An electric motor is disclosed having a detachable stator tooth. In some implementations, coil windings of the electric motor may be coupled to one or more drivers independently of other coil windings. A method of repairing and manufacturing an electric motor having a detachable stator tooth is also disclosed.
