A generator device for generating electrical current on the basis of a magnetic interaction between a rotating permanent magnet and rotatable further permanent magnets.

A generator device for generating electrical current on the basis of a magnetic interaction between a rotating permanent magnet and rotatable further permanent magnets.

A rotary electrical machine comprises: a mechanical motor/generator assembly, and optional electronics. The mechanical motor/generator assembly comprises: a core assembly, and an armature assembly. The core assembly comprises two magnet assemblies, which are positioned to define an air gap therebetween and produce time invariant magnetic fields in the air gap. The armature assembly comprises: an armature, and one or more conductors that are mounted to the armature and positioned in the air gap. Either the core assembly or the armature assembly may be mounted to a rotating element, while the other is mounted to a stationary element. During operation as a motor, electrical current flows in alternating directions in the one or more conductors, to produce torque on the armature and rotating element. During operation as a generator, electrical current is produced in the one or more conductors when torque is applied to the rotating element and the armature.

An electric motor includes a stator and a rotor rotatable relative to the stator. The stator includes: a stator core including a yoke portion having a cylindrical shape and twelve teeth each protruding radially inward from the yoke portion; and coils of three phases, a winding being concentratedly wound around each of the teeth to form each of the coils. The number of poles of the rotor is two. The teeth include two teeth located adjacent to each other in a circumferential direction and forming a teeth portion, and windings of a same phase are respectively wound in a same direction around the two teeth forming the teeth portion and are connected in series. The teeth are arranged such that the teeth portions adjacent to each other are different in phase and the three phases are arranged sequentially side by side in the circumferential direction.
