Motor for compressor pumps and related compressor assembly
View Patent ↗An electric motor is provided, including a stator having two electromagnetic poles diametrically opposite each other, a rotor including a rotor core configured for being rotatably mounted with a shaft for rotation relative to the stator. The rotor core is formed by stacking a plurality of laminations each of which has a central hole and a plurality of generally radially extending teeth. The stator and the rotor have geometric attributes such that: R 1 =G*0.9968, wherein G is defined as thickness of a field yoke, and R 1 is defined as a distance from an outside edge of a central hole to bases of the teeth. A compressor assembly is also provided that employs the present motor.
1. An electric motor, comprising:
a stator having two electromagnetic poles diametrically opposite each other;
a rotor including a rotor core configured for being rotatably mounted with a shaft for rotation relative to said stator, said rotor core being formed by stacking a plurality of laminations each of which has a central hole and a plurality of generally radially extending teeth; and
said stator and said rotor have geometric attributes such that: R 1 =G*0.9968, wherein G is defined as thickness of a field yoke, and R 1 is defined as a distance from an outside edge of said central hole to bases of said teeth.
2. An electric motor, comprising:
a stator having two electromagnetic poles diametrically opposite each other;
a rotor including a rotor core configured for being rotatably mounted with a shaft for rotation relative to said stator, said rotor core being formed by stacking a plurality of laminations each of which has a central hole and a plurality of generally T-shaped teeth;
said plurality of generally T-shaped, radially extending teeth form salient poles of said rotor core; and
said stator and said rotor have geometric attributes such that: R 1 =G*0.9968, wherein G is defined as thickness of a field yoke, and R 1 is defined as a distance from an outside edge of said central hole to bases of said teeth.
3. A compressor system, comprising:
a motor as defined in claim 1 ;
a drive pulley connected to said motor;
a pump assembly including a piston reciprocating relative to a cylinder, said piston connected to a flywheel; and
a drive belt connecting said drive pulley directly to said flywheel.
4. The compressor system of claim 3 wherein said drive belt is a poly v belt.
5. The compressor system of claim 3 being configured for producing at least 6.8 SCFM at 40 psi.
