  2. Magnet motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet_motor

    Example of a magnet motor design. The predominantly attracting orientation of the magnets apparently leads to a perpetual rotary motion. A hypothetical magnet motor works with permanent magnets in stator and rotor. By a special arrangement of the attracting and repelling poles, a rotational movement of the rotor is supposedly permanently ...

  3. Permanent magnet motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permanent_magnet_motor

    Schematic of a permanent magnet motor using brushes and magnets in the stator. A permanent magnet motor is a type of electric motor that uses permanent magnets for the field excitation and a wound armature. The permanent magnets can either be stationary or rotating; interior or exterior to the armature for a radial flux machine or layered with ...

  4. Brushless DC electric motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brushless_DC_electric_motor

    The motor from a 3.5 in floppy disk drive. The coils, arranged radially, are made from copper wire coated with blue insulation. The rotor (upper right) has been removed and turned upside-down. The gray ring inside its cup is a permanent magnet. This particular motor is an outrunner, with the stator inside the rotor. DC brushless ducted fan. The ...

  5. Homopolar motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homopolar_motor

    The screw and magnet spin, with the screw tip acting as a bearing. A homopolar motor is a direct current electric motor with two magnetic poles, the conductors of which always cut unidirectional lines of magnetic flux by rotating a conductor around a fixed axis so that the conductor is at right angles to a static magnetic field.

  6. Synchronous motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synchronous_motor

    The rotor is made of permanent magnet. Small synchronous motor with integral stepdown gear from a microwave oven. A synchronous electric motor is an AC electric motor in which, at steady state, [1] the rotation of the shaft is synchronized with the frequency of the supply current; the rotation period is exactly equal to an integer number of AC ...

  7. Halbach array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halbach_array

    This helps with field confinement, usually a problem in the design of magnetic structures. Thus they have a surprising number of applications, ranging from flat refrigerator magnets through industrial applications such as the brushless DC motor , voice coils , [ 7 ] magnetic drug targeting [ 8 ] to high-tech applications such as wiggler magnets ...

  8. Linear motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motor

    The low-acceleration, high speed and high power motors are usually of the linear synchronous motor (LSM) design, with an active winding on one side of the air-gap and an array of alternate-pole magnets on the other side. These magnets can be permanent magnets or electromagnets. The motor for the Shanghai maglev train, for instance, is an LSM.

  9. Axial flux motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_flux_motor

    An axial flux motor (axial gap motor, or pancake motor) is a geometry of electric motor construction where the gap between the rotor and stator, and therefore the direction of magnetic flux between the two, is aligned parallel with the axis of rotation, rather than radially as with the concentric cylindrical geometry of the more common radial ...
