A pump assembly can pump fluid with a single moving part. The pump includes a casing with an inlet and an outlet. The pump includes an impeller to rotate inside the casing to create low pressure at the inlet and increase pressure to expel fluid from the output. The impeller is physically connected to a rotor within the pump casing. The rotor includes permanent magnets arranged radially around a surface of the rotor opposite the physical connection to the impeller. A variation replaces the magnets with a switched reluctance path. The pump includes a stator assembly within the casing, magnetically coupled to the rotor, the stator assembly having electrically controllable conductors to drive the rotor with axial flux.

The rotor is configured to drive a plurality of propeller blades that provide force for an aerial vehicle. Additionally or alternatively, a rotor for an electric motor includes a housing that includes a first retaining structure and a second retaining structure that are configured to apply a force that is directed radially outward against a magnet to hold the magnet against the housing. The rotor is configured to drive a plurality of propeller blades that provide force for an aerial vehicle.

A motor-integrated fan having an intake port and a blow-out port comprises a rotary part 12 that is rotatably supported by a shaft, and a motor 14 that rotates the rotary part 12.

An axial flux machine is provided with an integrated clutch assembly, which is housed within the bore of an annulus-shaped stator of the machine. First and second rotors, located either side of the stator are attached to the clutch basket of the clutch assembly, and rotate in unison relative to the stator. A machine housing is provided between the stator and an engagement face of the clutch basket, seated on bearings between the clutch basket and machine housing, to provide a rigid structure.
