[Also in Division H2] In a reciprocating electric motor having two cores 12a, 12b Fig. 1 energized alternately by physically separated windings 15a, 15b connected via opposed rectifiers 17a, 17b e.g. of the metal, diode, or thyratron types to an A. C. supply, the lines of force within the air-gaps 11a, 11b are directed transversely to the direction of movement of the armature 1. The motor is shown driving a compressor or pump 21 the cushion chamber 25 of which may be used to increase the natural frequency of the moving parts. The armature laminations are insulated and are secured by a non-magnetic frame (10, Fig. 3, not shown). The piston chamber 21 may be provided with two inlet and two outlet valves so as to render both strokes of the piston operative. In a double acting motor compressor or pump Fig. 4 the armature laminations 52 are insulated and compressed between the pistons 54a, 54b which screw together. The space between sealing rings 55a, 55b, 47c e.g. of polytetrafluoroethylene provides cushion chambers 47a, 47b. In a modified double acting motor Fig. 7 the armature consists of groups of laminations 66a, 66b secured on tubes 69 which slide on pins 71 and allow the armature to reciprocate and drive pistons 79a, 79b. The motor can be started by switching on and so energizing one of the windings, or by injecting compressed air into one of the cushion chambers 25 or 47 or 86. A frequency multiplier or divider may be inserted between the A, C, supply and the magnetizing windings so as to vary the reciprocation rate also the power supplied by the motor may be varied by an autotransformer 20.</p> |
