An electric motor assembly suitable for use in a laundry washing machine or dryer or washer-dryer, is of the axial flux permanent magnet synchronous motor direct-drive type, with the stator coils carried by a rotor bearing housing component to provide a primary heat conduction pathway from the stator coils to the bearing housing 5 component, and to a drum of the machine. The motor may be positioned between axially spaced bearings mounting the rotor.

An electric motor with positional sensing is disclosed. A group of permanent magnets are physically attached to a group of piezoelectric actuators which push them toward or pull them away from a second group of permanent magnets when the piezoelectric actuators are electrically activated and/or when the load on the motor is moved by an external force. Alternate configurations using electromagnets are also disclosed. The current induced in the piezoelectric actuators is used to detect the position of the motor and/or elements affixed to the motor.

A novel configuration for the groups of electromagnets which maximizes efficiency in a piezoelectrically actuated motor is also disclosed.

A method is for calibrating a multiturn sensor for determining the position of a spindle of a clutch actuator, in which the multiturn sensor (5) is operatively connected to a magnetic field of a permanent magnet (12) in that the multiturn sensor (5) is combined with an actuator transmission (3) which comprises a spindle (9) bearing the permanent magnet (12). In a calibration method which can be carried out particularly quickly and cost-effectively, during the assembly of the multiturn sensor (5), arranged on a carrier element (4), with the actuator transmission (3) bearing the spindle (9), the multiturn sensor (5) is operated outside its specified rotational range (0, n), wherein a position, set by actuating the actuator transmission (3), of the spindle (9) bearing the permanent magnet (12) provided for an operating case of the clutch actuator (1), is assigned to a specified end position of the rotational range (0, n) of the multiturn sensor (5), as a result of which a magnetic field of the permanent magnet (12) is aligned with the multiturn sensor (5).

An axle assembly and a method of manufacture. The axle assembly may include a differential carrier and a bearing support wall. The differential carrier may be made of a first material. The bearing support wall may be mounted to the differential carrier and may be made of a second material. The second material may have a greater stiffness than the first material.

A motor includes a stator, a rotor, and a bearing. The stator includes a shaft that extends in a vertical direction. The rotor is rotatable around the shaft. The bearing supports the rotor in a rotatable manner. The rotor includes a magnet, a case, and a tooth groove. The magnet is radially outward of the stator and opposes the stator in a radial direction. The case covers a radially outer end of the magnet. The tooth groove is provided in a radially outer surface of the case.
