Electromagnetic gyroscopic stabilizing propulsion system method and apparatus is an electric gyroscope that creates magnetic fields used to rotate its flywheel. The rotation of its flywheel creates both a gyroscopic effect and thrust with airfoil shaped spokes. The invention attaches to an airframe through an articulating joint that causes the axle of the gyroscope to precess in a vertical orientation regardless of the movements/angle of the airframe. The gyroscope's thrust aligns itself with the axle of the gyroscope. The net effect is that the invention has tremendous efficiency, no external drive because it is also a motor, tremendous power from magnetic leverage of the flywheel, and stability because of the gyroscopic effect.

A direct drive drive actuator includes a base structure and a driven structure that is journally supported and translatable relative to the base structure. The driven structure is disposed in a fixed spacial relationship to the base structure. A plurality of first pole arrays is disposed on the driven structure. A plurality of second pole arrays, corresponding in number to the plurality of first pole arrays is disposed on the base structure. An electrical power source is provided. A controller is coupled to the power source and the first plurality of pole arrays and the second plurality of pole arrays, wherein the controller is configured to selectively electrically energized windings of the first plurality of pole arrays and the second plurality of pole arrays such that an electro-magnetic force is formed between poles of the first plurality of pole arrays and poles of the second plurality of pole arrays. The driven structure is translatable relative to the base structure responsive to the electro-magnetic force.

Disclosed is an electronic motor with two bearings. The motor is structured so that, when loaded, the majority of the load (e.g., a radial load) is borne by one of the bearings. The bearing that bears a greater load may be larger and, thus, better suited for a heavy load. In some embodiments, the larger bearing may include rolling elements that have respective radii larger than respective radii of rolling elements of the other bearing by a ratio of at least 1.5 (150%). In some embodiments, the larger bearing may have an outer race with a radius that is greater than a radius of the outer race of the smaller bearing by a ratio of at least 1.5. In some embodiments, the motors may include a third bearing between the two bearings. The third bearing may reduce vibration in the motor.

Disclosed is a brushless DC vibration motor. An eccentric weight of a rotor is securely sandwiched between a back yoke and a permanent magnet, being heavier to provide an increased vibrational force. A bearing coupling portion with upper and lower stopping protrusions prevents detachment of a bearing. A bracket is formed with grooves, instead of through holes, to strongly support a cogging plate of which pieces are connected with each other to form a single body for easy-placement on the bracket. An optimized area of the cogging plate can suppress the rotor not to rise during starting of the motor, resulting in no frictional noise, and a high stopping speed and uniform horizontal level of the rotating rotor.

A compressor arrangement for operating a compressed air supply installation includes a pneumatic compressor and an electric motor arranged inside a drive housing, the electric motor having an internal stator and an external outer rotor. The external outer rotor is arranged in a rotatable manner about the internal stator. The external outer rotor is supported in a rotatable manner about a center axis with respect to the drive housing via a bearing arrangement. The bearing arrangement has at least one bearing. The external outer rotor is supported by the bearing arrangement on an outer circumference of the outer rotor.

A motor includes a motor housing, a rotating shaft assembly including a rotating shaft, a rotor, and a bearing in which the rotor and the bearing are mounted to the rotating shaft. The motor further includes a stator installed in the motor housing, the stator surrounding the rotor, a bracket mounted to the motor housing, and an elastic mesh that defines a plurality of pores, that is disposed between the bracket and the bearing, and that contacts at least one of the bracket or the bearing.

The spherical body has a first axis of symmetry, a second axis of symmetry, and a third axis of symmetry, and the first, second, and third axes of symmetry are disposed perpendicular to each other. The circuit is coupled to the first primary coil and is operable to supply a first alternating current (AC) reference signal (V.sub.r1) to the first primary coil, whereby a first sensor signal (V.sub.x) is selectively induced in the first sensor coil, second sensor signal (V.sub.y) is selectively induced in the second sensor coil, and a third sensor signal (V.sub.z) is selectively induced in the third sensor coil, and supplies one or more signals representative of the sensor position.

It is disclosed a device (1) for generating electric energy from a pressurized fluid (4) comprising a stator (2), which includes a tubular body on which a solenoid (21) is wound, and a rotor (3) mobile housed inside the tubular body of the stator (2). The rotor (3) comprises a ring-shaped support element (6) and a plurality of hydraulic blades (57) each provided with a respective magnet (5) and mounted on the supporting element (6), integral with it. The rotor (3) is rotated within the tubular body of the stator (2) by the pressurized fluid (4) entering the device (1), so that the magnets (5) of the hydraulic blades (57) generate a magnetic field (22) which induces electric energy in the solenoid (21) of the stator (2).

An actuator for high rotational speed applications using a stator which utilizes laminated features to reduce Eddy current losses in the stator. This construction allows high pole counts while providing the efficiency and high-speed benefits of a laminated construction. Laminated construction is very challenging for a high pole count lightweight motor, but embodiments of the device provide structural strength, and rigidity, as well as other benefits such as low manufacturing cost, high heat dissipation, integrated cooling channels, and light weight construction. Many of these benefits result from the use of a laminate sandwich of non-magnetic, heat conductive material, such as anodized aluminum, as a structural member of the stator.
