Abstract
A hybrid magnetic suspension of a rotor () having compressor wheels () having permanent magnets () integral to shrunk fit rings () arranged on the rotor () in the vicinity of the compressor wheels (), permanent magnets () integral to stationary rings () coaxially arranged with the rotor () and associated with a resilient material () to define a passive radial magnetic bearing, coils () associated with magnetic armatures () and facing rotor parts () being located perpendicularly to the rotor (), and axial sensors () configured for sensing the axial position of the rotor () and control means () configured for feeding the coils () as a function of the outputs of the axial sensors () for generating both axial bearing forces and a motor torque and thereby being adapted for defining an axial bearingless motor.
