Abstract

A permanently excited synchronous machine includes a stator; a winding system arranged in grooves of a laminated core of the stator and forming winding overhangs on end faces of the laminated core, and a rotor connected in fixed rotative engagement to the shaft and having ferrite magnets which extend axially beyond the end faces of the laminated core. The rotor electromagnetically interacts with the stator across an air gap there between during operation of the permanently excited synchronous machine to cause a rotation about an axis of rotation. A flux concentration element is provided radially across each of the ferrite magnets of a magnetic pole and bundles magnetic field lines of the ferrite magnet onto an axial length of the laminated core of the stator. The flux concentration elements and held by a fixing element on the ferrite magnets of a magnetic pole.

First claim

What is claimed as new and desired to be protected by Letters Patent is set forth in the appended claims and includes equivalents of the elements recited therein:

1. A permanently excited synchronous machine, comprising:
a shaft;
a stator having a laminated core;
a winding system arranged in grooves of the laminated core and forming winding overhangs on end faces of the laminated core;
a rotor connected in fixed rotative engagement to the shaft and having ferrite magnets which extend axially beyond the end faces of the laminated core, said rotor electromagnetically interacting with the stator across an air gap between the stator and the rotor during operation of the permanently excited synchronous machine to cause a rotation about an axis of rotation;
a flux concentration element provided radially across each of the ferrite magnets of a magnetic pole and bundling magnetic field lines of the ferrite magnet onto an axial length of the laminated core of the stator; and
a fixing element holding and positioning the flux concentration elements on the ferrite magnets of a magnetic pole.

2. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the flux concentration element has a contour, viewed in a direction of rotation, is configured in a region of the air gap to generate a sinusoidal air gap field in which the air gap has a radial extension which is smaller in a middle of the magnetic pole than at an edge of the magnetic pole.

3. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the flux concentration element is laminated in a region of the air gap.

4. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the fixing element is configured as an amagnetic sheet-metal bush.

5. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the fixing element is configured as a fiberglass bandage, and further comprising devices provided in sections of the flux concentration element to allow the bandage to be fixed at its start as well as at its end.

6. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 5 , wherein the sections have a conical configuration.

7. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the magnetic pole is formed by one or more ferrite magnets and has an axial length, which corresponds to about 1.8 times an axial length of the laminated core of the stator.

8. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the ferrite magnets are shaped in the form of a dish defined by an internal radius which corresponds to an external radius of the shaft.

9. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the ferrite magnets have a substantially radial magnetization.

10. The permanently excited synchronous machine of claim 1 , wherein the ferrite magnets are fixed to the shaft.
