Electromagnetic motor |
摘要 |
An electromagnetic motor includes a stator and an armature arranged to move substantially linearly relative to the stator in an intended direction during operation of the motor. A first and second flexure are connected to a first end of the armature. Each flexure has a longest portion which lies substantially in a plane that intersects a plane in which the armature lies at a substantially right angle. The flexures allow motion of the armature in the intended direction while resisting motion of the armature in one or more other degrees of freedom. |

1. An electromagnetic motor, comprising:
a stator; an armature arranged to move substantially linearly relative to the stator in an intended direction during operation of the motor; and a first flexure and a second flexure, each flexure being a unitary piece and connected to a first end of the armature, each flexure having a longest portion which intersects a plane in which the armature lies at a right angle, and wherein the first flexure is positioned having its longest portion orthogonal to the longest portion of the second flexure, the flexures allowing motion of the armature in the intended direction while resisting motion of the armature in one or more other degrees of freedom. |
