Modular electromagnetic device with reversible motor generator operation.

摘要

An electromagnetic device (10) has a stator (16, 20a, 20b, 18, 22a, 22b) and a rotor (12) rotating between facing surfaces of the stator (16, 20a, 20b, 18, 22a, 22b) and bearing a plurality of magnets (14) distributed at regular intervals along its periphery. The magnets are so arranged that they form a sequence of alternately opposite poles on the surfaces of the rotor (12) directed towards the stator (16, 20a, 20b, 18, 22a, 22b), and the stator (16, 20a, 20b, 18, 22a, 22b) comprises two rings of magnetic yokes (16, 18) located at both sides of the rotor (12) in front of the magnets (14). The magnetic yokes (16, 18) have two axially oriented arms, the end surfaces of which, in static conditions of the rotor, at least partly face a pair of successive magnets (14) on a same surface of the rotor (12).
