| 20100007234 | SQUIRREL-CAGE ROTORS AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING SAME - A method of manufacturing a squirrel-cage rotor includes: providing a laminated stack; attaching a plurality of rotor bars to the laminated stack, wherein the plurality of rotor bars each include opposite longitudinal ends; and die-casting a pair of end rings at the longitudinal ends of the plurality of rotor bars. | 01-14-2010 |
| 20100237736 | PERMANENT MAGNET MACHINES - A permanent magnet machine includes a rotor and a stator including plurality of stator pole sections. Each stator pole section comprises a core section having an inner end piece disposed adjacent to the core section, the inner end piece comprising a first magnetic material that is adapted to saturate during exposure to a first magnetic field strength, and an outer end piece disposed adjacent to the core section radially outwardly relative to the inner end piece, the outer end piece comprising a second magnetic material that is adapted to be unsaturated during exposure to the first magnetic field strength and to saturate during exposure to a second magnetic field strength, wherein the second magnetic field strength is greater than the first magnetic field strength. | 09-23-2010 |
| 20100264768 | PERMANENT MAGNET MACHINE WITH CONICAL STATOR - A permanent magnet machine includes a stator, a rotor configured to coaxially rotate with respect to the stator and having a plurality of permanent magnets coupled thereto, and an air gap between the stator and the rotor having a magnitude that is continuously adjustable. The air gap may be adjusted to optimize torque, minimize back EMF, or optimize any characteristic of the permanent magnet machine during rotation. | 10-21-2010 |

| 20080256783 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A STATOR ASSEMBLY - The present invention provides a method for producing a stator assembly. The method initially includes providing an assembly mandrel having a generally cylindrical hub and a generally annular base circumscribing a terminal end portion of the hub. A first end ring and a stator shell are installed around the mandrel hub and onto the mandrel base. Thereafter, a plurality of poles are disposed on top of the first end ring and in a generally cylindrical pattern between the stator shell and the mandrel hub. A second end ring is disposed around the mandrel hub and on top of the plurality of poles. A plurality of stator shell tabs may then be bent in a radially inward direction to axially retain the first and second end rings. | 10-23-2008 |
| 20090026877 | STIR-WELDED ROTORS AND METHODS OF MAKING - Provided are stir-welded rotors and methods of making these. An exemplary stir-welded rotor may include a stack of laminations that each has spaced-apart slots arrayed on an outer circumference. The slots register with slot bars that each has a first extremity extending above the stack of laminations and a second extremity extending below the stack of laminations. A first weld extends between first extremities of adjacent slot bars, and a second stir weld extending between adjacent second extremities of adjacent slot bars. | 01-29-2009 |
| 20090028532 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR DRIVING A BRUSHLESS DC MOTOR - A delta type inverter is used in conjunction with a closed-loop motor controller to provide a control device for driving a three phase brushless direct current motor. The delta inverter has one-half of the solid state switching devices and diodes required by conventional bridge type inventers, thereby improved reliability, and enabling the motor control device to have reduced size, cost and weight. The closed-loop motor controller may include a torque loop for reducing torque ripple during operation of the motor. | 01-29-2009 |

| 20110050151 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR NON-SINUSOIDAL CURRENT WAVEFORM EXCITATION OF ELECTRICAL MACHINES - A system and method for exciting an electrical machine with instantaneous non-sinusoidal current waveforms is disclosed. The system includes an inverter that controls current flow and terminal voltages in an electrical machine and a controller programmed to input an initial sinusoidal current demand to the inverter, thereby causing the inverter to output an initial sinusoidal input current. The controller is further programmed to receive feedback on an air gap magnetic field in the electrical machine generated by the initial sinusoidal current demand, determine an instantaneous fundamental component and instantaneous harmonic components of the air gap magnetic field, apply a correction to the instantaneous fundamental component of the air gap magnetic field to generate an ideal fundamental component, generate a non-sinusoidal current demand based on the ideal fundamental component, and input the non-sinusoidal current demand to the inverter, thereby causing the inverter to output a non-sinusoidal current. | 03-03-2011 |

| 20110291599 | HIGH-SPEED SELF-CASCADED ELECTRIC MACHINE - An electric machine is disclosed comprising a first energy source, a second energy source, and a stator which comprises a first set of windings and a second set of windings. The electric machine has a rotor and a controller, the controller configured to control the first energy source to supply a first current to the first set of windings and control the second energy source to supply a second current to the second set of windings. The controller also detects an angular position of the rotor, detects the first current, detects the second current, and determines an optimum phase shift angle of the first current based on the angular position of the rotor, the first current, and the second current. The controller controls the first energy source based on the optimum phase shift angle to modify the first current supplied to the first set of windings. | 12-01-2011 |
