A motorized hand tool such as a cordless ratchet wrench that has a motor, and a housing that encloses or houses the motor. The motor includes one or more exhaust ports that expel exhaust air out of the motor. The housing includes one or more exhaust ports and inwardly projecting protrusions or deflectors that extend around the exhaust ports. The inwardly projecting protrusions/deflectors extend in a direction towards the motor exhaust ports, and/or are at least partially disposed in the motor exhaust ports to direct exhaust air out of the housing and prevent exhaust air from recirculating near the motor and electronic components of the tool.

Electric machine, in particular an electric motor for driving at least one compressor or circulator, comprising a stator and a rotor that are disposed in a casing, the machine comprising a cooling device disposed around the stator and comprising a circulation circuit for a cooling fluid, characterized in that the cooling device comprises a circulation pipe for the cooling fluid, comprising a portion embedded in a mass of material with high thermal conductivity such as metal or a metal alloy.

A work device including a cover provided on a base to form a work space between the cover and the base; a linear motor disposed in the work space having an extended stator and a movable element moving along the stator in a transfer direction; and a work executing section provided on the movable element to execute a predetermined work; wherein the movable element includes: a heat-dissipating section to dissipate heat generated from a constituent member to air, the constituent member constituting at least one of the movable element and the work executing section; a duct, covering the heat-dissipating section, having an intake port and an exhaust port; and a blower to blow the air from the intake port of to the exhaust port.

A thrust assembly motor is described, which can be used in a distributed electric propulsion system. The thrust assembly motor may include a revolved-wedge shaped ring on a leading edge of a motor stator, with a row of axial stator blades extending therefrom. The revolved-wedge shaped ring provides a mounting surface for the axial stator blade row while also controlling the ratio of airflow mass entering the outer gap versus the inner gap. The axial stator blade row, mounted to the revolved-wedge shaped ring, is configured to convert tangential kinetic energy (i.e., associated with a velocity component of the airflow) in the cooling airflow aft of the cooling fan rotors into static pressure rise after interaction with the axial stator blade row, during flight of the hybrid-propulsion aircraft.
