Linear motor with three magnets and a coil carrier having multiple winding areas with each area having a section of a coil wound with one continuous wire, or separate coils respectively wound around each area with all coils wound in the same direction

摘要

A linear motor includes an assembly of three magnets in series coaxially affixed inside of a housing, which results in an air gap therebetween, wherein the assembly includes a middle magnet whose direction of magnetization is opposite to that of the rest of the magnets. A first embodiment of the motor includes a coil carrier having a single electrical coil of two sections wound in the same direction and positioned into the corresponding two winding areas. The carrier is movably positioned into the air gap and further surrounds the assembly, thereby moving along an axial direction of the motor. A second embodiment includes two coils that are wound in a same direction with the respective separated wires and positioned into the respective two winding areas of the coil carrier.
