Latest Patents
One of Yeong Soo Kim's latest patents is the double rotor type motor. This invention relates to motors and is specifically designed for use in washing machines. The double rotor type motor features an outer rotor with a first base and a first extension that extends perpendicularly from the circumference of the first base. This extension is equipped with outer magnets mounted on the inside circumferential surface. Additionally, the inner rotor has a second base that is mounted on the upper surface of the first base, concentric to it. The second extension of the inner rotor is positioned opposite the first extension, creating a predetermined gap. This extension also has inner magnets mounted on its outside circumferential surface, along with a bushing at the center of both bases to facilitate the transmission of rotational force to a rotating shaft.
Another notable invention is the dual rotor type motor. This motor includes a stator located between the inner and outer rotors. The stator comprises a core with first and second surfaces that face magnets on the circumferential surfaces of the rotors. The core surfaces are spaced at predetermined distances from the magnets, and an insulating material can be included around the core to enhance performance.
