A motor includes: a stator that includes a teeth iron core and a yoke iron core; a rotor housed in the stator; an output-side flange; a projection disposed at the yoke iron core, the projection projecting on an output side of the motor with respect to an end surface of the teeth iron core; and a concave portion disposed at the output-side flange, the concave portion at which the projection is disposed, the concave portion contacting an inner peripheral surface of the projection.

The present disclosure relates to an axial flux motor for a reaction wheel, and method of using and making the same. The motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator comprises a printed circuit board (PCB) including a first motor coil. The rotor is coupled to a first ring-shaped magnet having an alternating pole arrangement. In a further embodiment, the rotor includes permanent magnets, and the stator PCB includes a first motor coil, and a first high thermal conductivity element.

A motor drive control device for electric power steering includes: a switching element for supplying current to a motor; a smoothing capacitor for reducing ripple current due to the switching element; a control board on which a drive circuit for controlling the switching element and a control circuit capacitor are mounted; a control signal line for supplying a control signal from the control board to the switching element; an electric connection member electrically connecting the switching element and the smoothing capacitor; and a heatsink portion in which the switching element is arranged in an embedded manner, wherein the electric connection member is arranged between the switching element and the control board, and the control circuit capacitor and the smoothing capacitor are arranged in a space between the electric connection member and the control board.

A rotor includes: a rotor core in a shape of a shaft; a permanent magnet; and a connecting member interposed between the rotor core and the permanent magnet and connecting the permanent magnet to the rotor core. The connecting member contains a thermally conductive filler made of a non-magnetic material. Only ends of the filler have magnetism, and the ends are in contact with either or both of the rotor core and the permanent magnet.

A substrate transport apparatus including a drive section and a first movable arm assembly. The drive section includes a first motor. The first motor includes a stator and a passive rotor. The first movable arm assembly is connected to the first motor. The substrate transport apparatus is configured for the first movable arm assembly to be positionable in a vacuum chamber with the passive rotor being in communication with an environment inside the vacuum chamber.

An actuator for moving a first component relative to a second component includes a first actuating mechanism secured to the first component and having a first motor, a first nut, and a first shaft secured to the first motor and the first nut such that the first nut is rotatable with the first motor. A second actuating mechanism is secured to the second component and has a second motor, a second nut, and a second shaft secured to the second motor and the second nut such that the second nut is rotatable with the second motor. A screw is threadably engaged with the first nut and the second nut such that rotation of at least one of the first motor and the second motor causes movement between the first and second nuts to move the second component relative to the first component.

A strain wave gearing with a built-in motor is provided with a motor, a wave gear mechanism enclosing the motor coaxially, and a heat-insulation spacing formed therebetween. The wave gear mechanism has a wave generator attached to the motor rotor so as to rotate integrally with the motor rotor. A wave generator plug of the wave generator is fixed to a rotor magnet back yoke of the motor rotor so as to enclose the rotor magnet back yoke. The spacing is formed in a contact surface portion between the rotor magnet back yoke and the wave generator back yoke, whereby heat transfer from the motor to the wave gear mechanism is suppressed.

An electric device includes a case, an electric component that is provided in the case and has a main body section and a lead terminal extending from the main body section, the main body section being supported on the case, a circuit board that is provided in the case and has a connecting hole through which the lead terminal is inserted, and a guide member that has a guide hole positioned relative to the connecting hole, the lead terminal being disposed to penetrate through the guide hole.

Pump motor, with a crankcase, a pump head, and a containment shell, whereby the pump head with the containment shell defines a wet chamber and the containment shell with the crankcase defines a dry chamber, a permanent magnet rotor is rotatably mounted in the wet chamber around an axis, a wound stator and a printed circuit board are arranged in the dry chamber and the printed circuit board is located opposite to the containment shell bottom. The pump motor economically provides for a reliable heat dissipation with an increased heat dissipation capacity, from the printed circuit board into the medium which has to be transported, in the case of a pump motor of an appropriate kind.

A rotor includes a shaft having knurled portions and a rotor core having a fitting-recess that is fitted and fixed to the knurled portions. The shaft has a small diameter portion on one end of the knurled portions and a flange portion on another end. The rotor core has a small diameter hole on one end of the fitting-recess. When the fitting-recess is fitted into the knurled portions, an end face in the other end of the rotor core abuts the flange portion, while a stepped surface between the fitting-recess and the small diameter hole contacts with an end face in the one end of the knurled portions. Thus, a filler is sealed in gaps formed between the knurled portions and an internal wall of the fitting-recess.
