Class of electrical machines for converting between electrical energy and mechanical energy and vice versa. Each machine has an integral number of repeatable sections and is comprised of a magnetic stator (1), a magnetic armature (28), multiple open-circuit armature windings (46-45, 48-47, 50-49, 52-51, 54-53) overlapping within each repeatable section, a commutator (30), multiple brushes (16, 25) bearing on the entire commutator, a stator magnetic field of various configurations, and appropriate connections and couplings to electrical and mechanical energy sources and loads. Also disclosed are means for disposing of armature winding energy as a part of the armature windings commutation by dissipating the energy in various locations and dissipators or by recovering the energy for reuse. |
