ELECTRIC MOTOR HAVING STRUCTURE FOR REDUCING COGGING TORQUE

摘要

A synchronous electric motor having a structure for reducing cogging torque generated by the positioning error of a permanent magnet. Protrusions are alternately arranged in regions A and B in the circumferential direction of an iron core. Therefore, with respect to neighboring magnets positioned on both sides of the first protrusion, in region B, where the protrusion does not exit, ends of the neighboring magnets are attracted to each other by magnetic force. On the other hand, with respect to the neighboring magnets positioned on both sides of the second protrusion, in region A, where the protrusion does not exit, ends of the neighboring magnets are attracted to each other by magnetic force resulting in being inclined in opposing directions, and thus the generated cogging torque is significantly reduced.

主权项

1. A synchronous electric motor having s slots and 2p poles, wherein a lowest common multiple of s and p is an odd multiple of p, the synchronous electric motor having a rotor comprising:
an iron core having a plurality of protrusions for positioning permanent magnets; and a plurality of permanent magnets positioned on the iron core, wherein the protrusions are arranged on the iron core so that one end of each permanent magnet is inclined towards one of neighboring permanent magnets so as to be attracted to the one of the neighboring permanent magnets, and so that the other end of each permanent magnet is inclined towards the other of neighboring permanent magnets so as to be attracted to the other of the neighboring permanent magnets.
