A actuator and a pump using the actuator are provided. The actuator is used to drive a pump body. The actuator includes a base, a transmission assembly and a motor received in the base. The motor includes a stator, a rotor, and a driving shaft. The driving shaft is connected to the transmission assembly. The base includes a mounting bracket. The mounting bracket is partly embedded in the motor. The actuator has good integrality and a compact structure.

A fuse component configured to provide overcurrent protection for an electric motor comprises a spiral fuse portion and a magnetic core. The spiral fuse portion encloses at least a part of the magnetic core, so that the fuse component is also configured to function as a choke of the electric motor.

Fuse component and electric motor incorporating the same

An electric motor includes a stator having multiple magnetic poles and a rotor rotatably mounted to the stator. The rotor includes a shaft, a commutator and a rotor core fixed to the shaft; and windings wound on the rotor core and electrically connected to the commutator. The rotor core is formed by stacking a plurality of laminations. Each lamination includes an inner ring having a hole for fixing the shaft; an outer ring radially spaced from the inner ring; multiple teeth extending outwardly from the outer ring, and multiple ribs connecting the inner ring to the outer ring. Each rib has a width w measured in a circumferential direction of the lamination. The number of ribs is n. The width w and the number n satisfy the formula: 0.75&#x2264;n&#xd7;w&#x2264;64, where the width w is measured in millimeters.

Electric motor

A single phase brushless motor includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator core and stator windings wound on the stator core. The stator core includes a yoke portion, and first and second pole portions extending inwardly from the yoke portion. An end surface of the first pole portion includes a first arc surface having a first groove. An end surface of the second pole portion includes a second arc surface having a second groove. The first and second arc surfaces are opposed to each other and define a receiving space therebetween. The rotor includes a rotary shaft and permanent magnetic poles fixed to the rotary shaft. The permanent magnetic poles are received in the receiving space. A substantially uniform gap is formed between the first arc surface and the second arc surface and the permanent magnetic poles.

Single phase brushless motor

An electric motor includes a rotor and a wound stator structure. The stator structure includes a housing, a laminated stator core and windings wound around the stator core. The laminations of the stator core have an annular body and a plurality of teeth extending radially inwardly from the annular body. Projections and recesses are formed at the outer edge of the annular body. When assembled, the recesses of one lamination are aligned with the projections of an adjacent lamination such that when fitting the stator into the housing the projections may be deformed into an axially adjacent recess by contact with the housing. Thus the stator core contacts the housing at discrete locations.

A sound attenuation panel is configured with a substantially acoustically transparent planar, rigid frame divided into a plurality of individual, substantially two-dimensional cells. A sheet of a flexible material is fixed to the rigid frame, and a plurality of platelets fixed to the sheet of flexible material such that each individual cell of the plurality of cells is provided with a respective platelet to establish a resonant frequency, the resonant frequency defined by the planar geometry of the individual cells, the flexibility of the flexible material and the platelets. The cells are divided into at least two different types of the individual cells, configured so that sound waves emitted by a first type of said different types of individual cells establishes a sound cancellation pattern with sound waves emitted by a second type of said different individual cells or an aggregation of different types of the individual cells.

Sound attenuating structures

A fuel pump, for an internal combustion engine, has a housing accommodating a pump and a motor. The motor is arranged to drive the pump so as to pump fuel through the housing. The motor has a wound stator having a plurality of inwardly directed teeth about which a stator winding is wound, and a radially outer surface in contact with an inner surface of the housing. One or more pathways are formed between the inner surface of the housing and the outer surface of the stator, for the flow of fuel there through. Each pathway is formed by an axially extending recess formed in the outer surface of the stator and aligned with a selected tooth of the stator.

A brushless motor comprises a stator and a rotor rotatably mounted to the stator. The rotor comprises a shaft, a rotor core fixed onto the shaft and magnets fixed to the rotor core. Two covers are fitted to respective ends of the rotor core, with one of the covers covering one end of the rotor core and at least a part of the radially outer peripheral surface of the rotor core, while the other cover at least covering the other end of the rotor core. Preferably, the entire peripheral surface of the rotor core is substantially covered by the two covers and the gap between the two covers is sealed by adhesive.

Brushless motor

A brushless direct current (BLDC) motor has a 3-phase windingand six stator teethwith alternate stator teethbeing wound and the remaining stator teethbeing left unwound. The windinghas three legs, one for each phase and each leg has one coilwound about one of the stator teeth. Each leg has a first end A,B,C, arranged to receive electrical power and a second end X,Y,Z, which is connected to the second end of the other legs to form a star connection. Selected stator teeth have grooves in a face thereof dividing those teeth into a plurality of stator poles. The motor may be used to drive a fuel pump for an internal combustion engine, typically for a vehicle.

A throttle control module for controlling a throttle, comprises: a BLDC motor; a gear train connecting the motor to the throttle; and a throttle position sensor. A PWM module is connected to the throttle position sensor and generates a pulse-width modulation sequence according to the signal from the throttle position sensor and a desired throttle position signal. A decoder module generates commutation logic for the motor based on the signal from the throttle position sensor. A motor controller controls commutation of the motor according to the pulse-width modulation sequence and the commutation logic.
