Title:
TRANSVERSE FLUX LINEAR MOTOR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/013646
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
An Electrical Linear Motor having a number of electrical windings with long linear sections, said sections being arranged parallel to the linear path of the motor. A unique row of equidistant magnets (magnet row), parallel to the linear path and having alternating magnetic field direction perpendicular to the linear path of the motor is provided. A number of magnetic circuits are provided; each magnetic circuit encloses a number of the said long linear winding section, further referred as "set of long linear sections", and at least two of these magnetic circuits enclose a different set of long linear sections. Each magnetic circuit is provided with an opening receiving the magnet row. The magnet row and the magnetic circuits slide along the linear path relatively to each other. Embodiments include variations in the static and movable elements. Working force between static and movable elements is obtained by applying current in the windings; wherein each magnetic circuit produces a force as a function of the position of the magnet row and the current in the enclosed winding linear sections. The working force is the sum of all the forces produced by all magnetic circuit and a required force value is obtained by controlling the current in the windings for each position of the moving row relative to the magnetic circuits.
