Abstract
A spherical brushless direct current (BLDC) machine includes a first stator, a second stator, and a spherical rotor. The first stator is symmetrically disposed about a first axis and includes a first multi-pole stator core having a first multi-phase winding wound thereon. The second stator is symmetrically disposed about a second axis and includes a second multi-pole stator core having a second multi-phase winding wound thereon. The second stator core is coupled to the first stator core, and the second axis intersects the first axis. The spherical rotor is disposed adjacent to, and is moveable relative to, the first and second stators. The spherical rotor includes a plurality of magnets that emanate a magnetic field, and each magnet has at least one of its magnetic poles facing the first and second stators.
