Filed:

Jan 5, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/348318

Inventors:

Eric Stephane Quere - Los Altos CA, US

International Classification:

H02P 7/00

US Classification:

318269, 318 34, 318 42, 318362, 318 68, 318 94, 388835, 388830, 310114, 310113, 310112, 310118

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention include a composite electromechanical machine which can operate as a motor, a generator (including dynamo or alternator), or any combination thereof. In an aspect, the present composite electromechanical machine comprises at least a double-sided magnetic plane (e. g. , rotor or stator) to form two rotor/stator pairs, together with a controller to configure the multiple rotor/stator pair. The controller can configure or convert the multiple rotor/stator pairs into motors, generators, or nonoperation, and also can change the windings characteristics of the magnetic planes. The controller can add new functionality and characteristics to the present composite electromechanical machine. Other embodiments can also be included.

Appl. No.:

12/210171

Inventors:

Eric Stephane Quere - Los Altos CA, US

International Classification:

H02K 16/02

US Classification:

310266, 310112

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention include a composite electromechanical machine which can operate as a motor or a generator (including dynamo or alternator). In an aspect, the present composite electromechanical machine includes at least a double-sided magnetic plane (e. g. , rotor or stator) wherein the double-sided magnetic plane includes a plurality of magnet protruding from both sides and exerting substantially equal magnetic field to both sides of the double-sided magnetic plane. The magnets can be permanent magnets or electromagnets having windings. Other embodiments can also be included.

Appl. No.:

12/210169

Inventors:

Eric Stephane Quere - Los Altos CA, US

International Classification:

H02K 16/02

US Classification:

310114

Abstract:

Embodiments of the present invention include a composite electromechanical machine which can operate as a motor or a generator (including dynamo or alternator). In an aspect, the present composite electromechanical machine comprises at least two rotating elements (rotor) and one stationary element (stator) where the two rotating elements are coupled through a gear mechanism. The gear mechanism can combine the torque of the inner and the outer rotor, preferably using helical gears which have lower noise level and higher contact area. The gear mechanism can also act as a locking mechanism to keep the outer rotor in place. The gear mechanism can comprise a first gear coupled to the inner rotor and a second gear coupled to the outer rotor. In an embodiment, the first and second gears are coupled together to connect the inner and the outer rotors. The gear mechanism can further comprise a third gear coupled to the double-sided stator. In an embodiment, the first and third gears and the second and third gears are coupled to each other, respectively. Other embodiments can also be included.
