A drive shaft rotates a load. A drive support rotates the drive shaft and supports a radial load of the drive shaft in a non-contact manner, by an electromagnetic force generated by the flow of a current within a predetermined current range through the drive support. A control section controls an operation of the load based on a magnetic flux margin degree expressed by the difference between a total magnetic flux amount generated at the drive support and a predetermined limit of the total magnetic flux amount for the drive support. The total magnetic flux amount includes driving magnetic flux and the supporting magnetic flux in a predetermined operation region of the load. The driving magnetic flux is generated at the drive support for rotating the drive shaft. The supporting magnetic flux is generated at the drive support for supporting a radial load of the drive shaft.

A textile machine includes a main driven system driven by a plurality of main motors, a plurality of slave driven systems each driven by at least one slave motor, and an energy supply/control arrangement for supplying energy to the main motors and the slave motors and for controlling the flow of energy between a power supply system and the main motors and the slave motors. The energy supply/control arrangement includes a first energy exchange unit, a first main motor unit, a second energy exchange unit, a second main motor unit, and a controller. The slave motors include at least one first slave motor connected to a first DC voltage bus system by an associated first slave motor unit and at least one second slave motor connected to a second DC voltage bus system by an associated second slave motor unit.

A hydraulic pressure supply system includes a mechanical oil pump; an electric oil pump; an electric motor that drives the electric oil pump; a control device that controls the operation of the electric oil pump; and a hydraulic pressure measurement circuit that measures a hydraulic pressure of the outlet-side pipe of the electric oil pump. The control device starts supplying electric power to the electric motor to thereby start drive of the electric oil pump before the mechanical oil pump stops operating, and limits the power-supply current to the electric motor to a first current or less during a time period between the start of the drive of the electric oil pump and the time when the hydraulic pressure measured by the hydraulic pressure measurement circuit exceeds a prescribed outlet hydraulic pressure.

A motor control system includes a motor, and a motor control apparatus including first processing circuitry that, based on a driving state quantity of the motor, controls driving power supplied to the motor, safety request input receiving circuitry through which a safety request signal is input from outside the motor control apparatus, safety cooperation input receiving circuitry through which a safety cooperation signal is input from outside the motor control apparatus, safety cooperation output circuitry through which the motor control apparatus outputs the safety cooperation signal to outside the motor control apparatus, and second processing circuitry that, upon input of at least one signal among the safety request signal and the safety cooperation signal, monitors a relationship between a predetermined motion monitor pattern and the driving state quantity and outputs the safety cooperation signal.

A drive system has a main electric drive and an auxiliary electric drive. A frequency converter controls a torque of the auxiliary drive. A planetary gear has a ring gear, a sun gear, a planet gear and a planet gear carrier. The ring gear is coupled to the main drive, the sun gear is coupled to an output shaft and the planet gear carrier is coupled to the auxiliary drive. A clutch path is disposed between the planet gear carrier and the input shaft. A controller operates the drive system in a first range with the clutch closed and the switching apparatus open, or in a second range with the clutch open and the switching apparatus closed. The controller is adapted to superelevate the torque of the auxiliary drive during a transition between the first and second ranges beyond the torque that the auxiliary drive is able to provide permanently.

A dual axis motor a first epicyclic gear, a second epicyclic gear, a rim gear, an inner rotor, an outer rotor, a brake and a stator assembly. The second epicyclic gear is operative to mesh with the first epicyclic gear and move in around the first epicyclic. The inner rotor is fixedly connected to the first epicyclic gear. The outer rotor fixedly is connected to the second epicyclic gear. The stator assembly spaced from the inner rotor by a first gap and spaced from the outer rotor by a second gap. The motor provides a resultant torque to driven device. The resultant torque is provided by the inner rotor, outer rotor, the brake, or by sudden deceleration of one or more elements within the dual axis motor. The gear ratio provided by the first and second epicyclic gear allow for an enhanced speed range while providing high starting torque.
