Abstract

An electric rotary actuator for producing rotation through a limited angle comprises a rotor winding made of a plurality of thin loop coils arranged in a continuous cylindrical framework as part of a rotor shell. The rotor shell lies in an annular flux gap defined by a stator magnet assembly and a flux return means. Each pair of adjacent axially extending limbs of adjacent loop coils lies opposite to and cooperates with a respective stator pole face. This winding arrangement helps to optimize the torsional resonance characteristics of the rotating mass.
