Title: Yuichiro Kanada - Innovator in Electric Motor Technology
Introduction
Yuichiro Kanada is an inventor based in Toyota-shi, Japan. He is known for his innovative contributions to electric motor technology. Although he currently holds no granted patents, his work in the field is noteworthy.
Latest Patent Applications
Yuichiro Kanada's latest patent applications include a stator and electric motor design. The stator features a back iron with a cylindrical shape that extends along an axial direction. It includes a plurality of teeth on the inner circumferential surface and a stator coil positioned on these teeth. Additionally, the design incorporates multiple coolant passages arranged in a circumferential direction, extending along the axial direction to the first end face of the back iron. Notably, the arrangement of these coolant passages exhibits two-fold symmetry rather than four-fold symmetry.
The motor design includes a rotor, a stator comprising a stator core and a coil, and a housing that encases both the rotor and stator. A first annular member provides a seal between the first end face of the stator core and the inner wall surface of the housing. This member features at least one first hole and one second hole for refrigerant injection, strategically located on different planes perpendicular to the axis of the stator core.
Conclusion
Yuichiro Kanada's innovative designs in electric motor technology reflect his commitment to advancing the field. His latest patent applications demonstrate a focus on efficiency and functionality in motor design.
