In addition, a permanent magnet is arranged between each pair of laminated core segments. An intermediate space between the shaft and each fixing contour of the laminated core segments is filled with a curable nonmagnetic material. The curable nonmagnetic material forms a form closure with respect to the radial direction with each fixing contour, and therefore each laminated core segment is retained on the shaft by the form closure. | 03-17-2016 |

A magnetization device is used which has a coil group configured of a plurality of coils that are disposed side by side in a manner that winding directions of adjacent coils are opposite to each other, the coil group is configured of sub coils at both ends and two or more main coils between the sub coils, and all of the coils are connected in series. Further, in the magnetizing process, a partial magnetization of magnetizing the magnet material among the plurality of magnet materials to which magnetic flux interlinking with two adjacent main coils is applied is performed a plurality of times, so as to magnetize all the plurality of magnet materials. | 03-17-2016 |

20160099635 | Motor Core Having Separately Processed Rotor and Stator Laminations - Methods for forming a motor core having separately processed stator and rotor laminations are disclosed. The stator and rotor laminations may be formed from a single electrical steel source, such as a sheet or coil. The methods may include forming and heat treating a first portion of the steel source to form stator laminations having a first microstructure (e.g., mean grain size) and magnetic and mechanical properties (e.g., core loss). They may further include forming and heat treating a second portion of the steel source to form rotor laminations having a second microstructure that is different from the first and magnetic and mechanical properties that are different from the stator laminations. The stator laminations may have improved core loss and permeability performance and the rotor laminations may have improved mechanical properties. By separating the processing, each core may have properties tailored to conditions that they will experience in operation. | 04-07-2016 |
20160105086 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A ROTOR OF AN ELECTRIC ASYNCHRONOUS MACHINE - In a method for producing a rotor of an asynchronous electric machine, a carrier shaft is produced with shaft slots and a squirrel cage rotor is applied to the carrier shaft. The carrier shaft and an electrically conductive bulk material of nickeled copper is placed into a container so that the bulk material fills up the shaft slots. The bulk material is compacted in the container by hot isostatic pressing and thereby bonded to the carrier shaft such that nickel as diffusion material causes permanently bonding of copper to the carrier shaft. The container is then detached from the carrier shaft. | 04-14-2016 |
20160111944 | MAGNET INSERTION METHOD INTO ROTOR CORE - A magnet insertion method into a rotor core is to insert an assembly into a magnet insertion hole provided in the rotor core of an electric motor, the assembly being formed by laminating a plurality of members, including at least a plurality of magnet pieces, in a line. According to this magnet insertion method, the assembly is formed by arranging a front member, having a surface surrounded by a chamfered ridge line, to cause the surface to be a front side end surface upon insertion, by laminating, on its rear side in an insertion direction, other members, without having the chamfered ridge line, in a line along the insertion direction to cause the other members to be hidden inside a projection of the front member when being projected from an insertion hole side, and by temporarily holding the front member and the other members. | 04-21-2016 |
20160111945 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING AN INTERIOR PERMANENT MAGNET ROTOR UNIT AND MAGNETIZING DEVICE - A radial magnetizing part including permanent magnets is disposed so as to face a rotor unit in a radial direction of the rotor unit. Axial magnetizing parts are disposed on both end faces in an axial direction of the rotor unit. The axial magnetizing parts include low magnetic permeability portions and high magnetic permeability portions. The low magnetic permeability portions are disposed so as to face magnet materials. Magnetic flux from the N pole of the permanent magnet of the radial magnetizing part enters a core in the radial direction, crosses the magnet material, and returns to the S pole of the permanent magnet. The magnetic flux from the N pole of the permanent magnet of the radial magnetizing part also enters the core through the high magnetic permeability portions of the axial magnetizing parts, crosses the magnet material, and returns to the S pole of the permanent magnet. | 04-21-2016 |
20160126813 | ROTOR MANUFACTURING METHOD - In a rotor manufacturing method, a magnetic body is moved by being pushed by a pusher along a guide surface of a guide portion, and the magnetic body is in a stated of being biased to the guide surface since the magnetic body is urged by a restriction portion. Therefore, the magnetic body can slide reliably between the guide portion and the restriction portion while restricting an insertion posture of the magnetic body. Thus, even if a wall surface of a magnet insertion hole is provided with a protrusion, when the magnetic body slides with the guide surface as a reference, the magnetic body will not abut against the protrusion, and the magnetic body can be reliably loaded into the magnet insertion hole. | 05-05-2016 |
