A four-pole stator assembly including a bobbin assembly; and two c-shaped stator cores, each c-shaped stator core comprising a back and first and second pole arms extending from the back. The bobbin assembly includes first and second bobbin portions, each bobbin portion comprising two hollow bobbin arms, each bobbin arm defining a slot for receiving a pole arm, and a winding wound around each bobbin arm.

An electric motor including: a frame; a rotor assembly including a magnet, a bearing assembly, an impeller, and a shaft; and a stator assembly including a stator core and a bobbin. The frame has an inner wall and an outer wall, the outer wall surrounds the inner wall and defines an annular channel between the inner wall and the outer wall, and diffuser vanes extend from the inner wall to the outer wall through the annular channel. The inner wall defines a bore for supporting the rotor assembly, and the outer wall defines a substantially cylindrical outer casing of the motor.

An electric motor comprising: a frame; and a stator assembly; the stator assembly including a bobbin assembly and at least one c-shaped stator core. The frame comprises at least one lug, the bobbin assembly includes at least one recess, and the stator assembly is fixed to the frame by fixing the lug inside the recess of the bobbin assembly.

Provided are multiple switched reluctance motors and excitation control methods for same. Motors with various structures are provided having the same structural characteristics, a stator formed of an even number of salient pole pairs and a rotor formed of an even number of salient pole pairs. The salient poles of the stator salient pole pairs are arranged opposite the salient poles of the rotor salient pole pairs, with minimal air gaps left between said salient pole pairs, thus leaving the shortest magnetic return paths between the stator salient pole pairs and the rotor salient pole pairs arranged opposite one another, thus satisfying the minimum reluctance principle of the switched reluctance motor. In addition, due to the magnetic isolation between each stator salient pole pair, the performance of the magnetic pole of each stator salient pole pair is controlled by an excitation control power source and changed independently.

On an AC permanent magnet switched reluctance motor stator seat, C-shaped or U-shaped excitation salient pole pairs or compound excitation salient pole pairs are set up in a balanced way. Excited by excitation current, the permanent magnet flux of compound excitation salient pole pair is imported into the main loop of excitation flux to form compound excitation magnetic potential. On the rotor support, permanent magnets are fixed at the same interval, and the magnetic polarity of neighboring permanent magnets on a same rotating surface is different. When the rotating shaft rotates, two magnet pole faces of each permanent magnet on rotor support will be dead against the two ports of each excitation salient pole pair on the stator, forming a closed magnetic loop with air gap.

A rotary magnetic motor having a rotor configured to magnetically interact with a stator to obtain rotation of the rotor about its axis. The stator has a magnetic structure of a generally involute shape around the axis of rotation. The stator magnetic structure has a plurality of permanent magnets defining a first magnetic face of a first polarity. The rotor has a magnetic structure of a generally circular shape around the axis and inside the stator magnetic structure. The rotor has a plurality of permanent magnets defining a second magnetic face of a second polarity. The magnetic attraction and repulsing of the aligned magnetic faces with a progressively narrowing radial gap, resulting from the involute shape, rotate the rotor inside the stator. A magnetic pulse mechanism discharges a magnetic pulse of the first polarity to provide an additional pull to continue the rotation of the rotor through its full cycle.
