Axial flux motor and generator assemblies

摘要: An axial flux motor assembly (10) comprises a stack of first and second discs (20a, 20b) arranged alternately such that there is gap allowing rotation between each disc 20b). The (20a) mounted on rotatable shaft (40), whilst the (20b) fixed in position. comprise sectors (200) magnetic material face 20b), which radially-extending conductor (202) conductive path (201) for conducting electric current. are at constant angular pitch, but pitch may or not be same as those disc. When current flows conductors (202), runs perpendicular to faces axially-extending paths (220), that, considering disc(s) independently disc(s), one (220) an opposite direction immediately-adjacent side it, returned by return portions (30) provided end (10). total super-position disc(s). further switching circuitry (50) reversing flowing correspondence thereof relative other way effect continuous
