Abstract

A synchronous reluctance motor includes a rotor and a stator surrounding the rotor. The rotator includes a rotatable shaft and magnetic flux barrier layers arranged radially. One of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the stator is filled with a conductor, and one of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the rotating shaft is a void.

Claims (38)

1. A synchronous reluctance motor, comprising:

a rotor; and

a stator surrounding the rotor; wherein

the rotor includes a rotatable shaft and magnetic flux barrier layers arranged radially;

one of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the stator is filled with a conductor, and one of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the rotating shaft is a void;

a total number of the magnetic flux barrier layers 2N+1, where N>1;

more than N+1 of the magnetic flux barrier layers adjacent to the stator are filled with conductors; and

at least a portion of the (N+2)th to 2Nth of the magnetic flux barrier layers adjacent to the stator are filled with the conductors or voids which do not include any of the conductors.

2. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 1 , wherein

a total number of the magnetic flux barrier layers is 2N, where N>1; and

more than N of the magnetic flux barrier layers which are adjacent to the stator are filled with conductors.

3. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 2 , wherein

at least a portion of the (N+1)th to (2N−1)th of the magnetic flux barrier layers which are adjacent to the stator side are filled with the conductors.

4. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 1 , wherein a total number of the magnetic flux barrier layers is 2N+1, where N=1; and

N+1 of the magnetic flux barrier layers adjacent to the stator are filled with conductors.

5. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 1 , wherein the conductors are made of an aluminum alloy.

6. An electrical product comprising the synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 1 .

7. A synchronous reluctance motor, comprising:

a rotor; and

a stator surrounding the rotor; wherein

the rotor includes a rotatable shaft and magnetic flux barrier layers arranged radially;

one of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the stator is filled with a conductor, and one of the magnetic flux barrier layers closest to the rotating shaft is a void; and

each of the magnetic flux barrier layers is a single continuous magnetic flux barrier.

8. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 7 , wherein

a total number of the magnetic flux barrier layers is 2N, where N>1; and

more than N of the magnetic flux barrier layers which are adjacent to the stator are filled with conductors.

9. The synchronous reluctance motor according to claim 8 , wherein

at least a portion of the (N+1)th to (2N−1)th of the magnetic flux barrier layers which are adjacent to the stator side are filled with the conductors.
