MOTOR, AND DISK DRIVE APPARATUS
A motor includes a shaft, a base, a stator, a rotor, a bearing, and at least one or more temperature adjusters. The shaft extends along a central axis extending in an axial direction. The base extends in a radial direction from an end of the shaft in an axially one direction. The stator has an annular shape surrounding the shaft, and is disposed further in an axially other direction than the base. The rotor is rotatable about the central axis. The bearing rotatably supports the rotor. The temperature adjuster adjusts an ambient temperature of the bearing. The shaft has a shaft hole recessed in the axial direction from an axial end of the shaft. The temperature adjuster is disposed in the shaft hole and overlaps at least a portion of the bearing as viewed in the radial direction.
MODULAR BRUSHLESS DC (BLDC) MOTOR CONSTRUCTION
A modular DC motor includes a stator module having a stator core. The stator core has a ring-shaped base defining an axis and a plurality of stator posts protruding axially outward from the ring shaped based. A plurality of coils are wound around the stator posts. Each stator post extends axially beyond the corresponding coil. A shaft support is radially inward of the stator ring shaped base and is connected to the ring-shaped base. The shaft support is configured to support a rotor shaft relative to the stator core. The stator module is configured to receive one of a plurality of rotor modules. An operation of the modular DC motor is dependent on the physical configuration of the received one of the plurality of rotor modules. Each rotor module in the plurality of rotor modules has a distinct magnetic configuration from each other rotor module in the plurality of rotor modules.
