| Number | Title | Issue Date |
| 6998746 | Electric motor sleeve bearing assembly with acoustic/vibration decoupling and endplay adjustment An electric motor includes an armature structure 12 having a shaft 14, a lamination stack 11 coupled with the shaft, a commutator 16 coupled with the shaft, and windings 13 carried by the lamination stack and connected to the commu... | 02/14/2006 |
| 6496002 | Rotation detector having a plurality of magnetism detection elements, a plurality of magnetic resistors which are able to switch the resistance from great to small and vice-versa A rotation detector includes a rotor having a shaft. Projections are located at predetermined intervals on the periphery of the rotor and extend in an axial direction. Magnets are located between the projections and the shaft. The flux of each magnet is d... | 12/17/2002 |
| 4883996 | Motor A motor having a rotary shaft, a coil wound on an iron core fixed to the rotary shaft, a yoke member, a magnetic flux producing member and commutator means has its yoke member constructed with yoke supporting portions serving as a magnetic path of magneti... | 11/28/1989 |
| 4216400 | Permanent magnet electrical machines A permanent magnet electrical machine includes a plurality of groups of permanent magnets which are magnetically coupled by a surrounding generally cylindrical housing of magnetic material. The magnets have flat, parallel, spaced pole faces and are arrang... | 08/05/1980 |
| 4110645 | Electric motor An improved yet relatively inexpensive motor is provided by mounting commercially-available magnets together with pole pieces to the interior surfaces of the housing of a motor. The pole pieces are then shaped in part, in situ, so as to form a cylindrical... | 08/29/1978 |
| 3950662 | Self-commutating motor and printed circuit armature therefor A self-commutating motor including main magnets to provide a magnetic field and a rotatable printed circuit armature positioned therebetween. The armature rotates in a self-commutating fashion with a pair of centrally mounted brushes. The printed circuit ... | 04/13/1976 |
