VARIABLE TORQUE MOTOR/GENERATOR/TRANSMISSION
The present disclosure is directed to an electric generator and motor transmission system that is capable of operating with high energy, wide operating range and extremely variable torque and RPM conditions. In accordance with various embodiments, the disclosed system is operable to: dynamically change the output “size” of the motor/generator by modularly engaging and disengaging rotor/stator sets as power demands increase or decrease; activate one stator or another within the rotor/stator sets as torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements change; and/or change from parallel to series winding configurations or the reverse through sets of 2, 4, 6 or more parallel, three-phase, non-twisted coil windings with switchable separated center tap to efficiently meet torque/RPM or amperage/voltage requirements.

ELECTRIC MACHINE, DISPLACEMENT DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRIC MACHINE, AND POWERTRAIN FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
An electric machine designed as a permanently excited synchronous machine, including a rotor with a rotor body arranged on a rotor shaft, a stator, and a displacement device that generates a relative axial movement between the rotor body and the stator based on a torque produced between the rotor shaft and the rotor body. The displacement device has first and second displacement elements and at least one rolling body arranged between the first and second displacement elements. The first displacement element is axially movable and rotatable to a limited degree on the rotor shaft, and the second displacement element is connected to the rotor shaft rotationally fixed. The displacement elements provide that upon rotation of the first displacement element relative to the second or vice versa, the rotor body is pushed on the rotor shaft axially against the spring force.

The displacement device includes at least one spring device which acts on the first rotor body and the second rotor body against the magnetic attractive force between the rotor body and the stator. The spring device is configured such that a spring force characteristic is formed which runs above the magnetic force characteristic over the entire displacement path.
ELECTRICAL RADIAL FLOW MACHINE AND POWERTRAIN
An electric radial flow machine having a stator, a rotor body connected to a rotor shaft, and a spring element which applies a spring force to the rotor body in the axial direction such that in a first operating position, the rotor body is held in an axial position in which the overlap between opposing surfaces of the rotor body and the stator is less than 100%. A displacement device with first and second displacement elements generates an axial movement between the rotor body and the stator against the spring force using a torque produced between the rotor shaft and the rotor body so that in the event of a rotation of the first displacement element relative to the second displacement element or vice versa, the rotor body is pushed on the rotor shaft axially against the spring force.
