Thin stator, eccentric motor and axial air-gap brushless vibration motor equipped with the same
A stator includes a bracket having a shaft bearing portion at a center, a stator base including a flexible printed wiring board outwardly attached to the shaft bearing portion, single-phase air-armature coils disposed on the stator base, and a drive circuit member disposed on the stator base so as not to overlap with the single-phase air-core armature coils. The bracket has a through hole at the section corresponding to the bottom of the drive circuit member. The stator base is embedded at least partly in the thickness direction in the through hole and fixed using a resin, and a detent torque generation member is contained in, and is no thicker than, the stator base.
1. A stator, comprising:
a bracket including a shaft bearing portion at a center thereof;
a stator base including a flexible printed wiring board attached to the bracket outward of the shaft bearing portion, the stator base having a central through hole in which the shaft bearing portion is containable, the stator base further including at least one long hole provided radially outward of the central through hole;
at least one magnetic detent torque part accommodated in the long hole so as not to protrude from the stator base upper surface;
air-armature coils disposed on the stator base, the air-core armature coils being of a single-phase type; and
a drive circuit member disposed on the stator base so as not to overlap with the air-core armature coils, said bracket having a recess at a section corresponding to a bottom of the drive circuit member, and the stator base being at least partly embedded in the recess in a thickness direction thereof.
2. A stator according to claim 1 , further comprising a detent torque generation member disposed in the central through hole.
3. A stator according to claim 2 , wherein:
the bracket has nonmagnetic or weak magnetic properties; and
the central through hole and the long hole in the stator base are formed so as to be connected to each other, and said at least one detent torque part accommodated in the long hole is formed integral with the detent torque generation member disposed in the central through hole.
4. A stator according to claim 1 , wherein:
the bracket is formed of a magnetic metal sheet; and
the detent torque part is integral with, and protrudes from, the bracket.
5. A stator according to claim 4 , further comprising magnetic attraction force buffer structure formed adjacent to the detent torque part of the bracket.
