Abstract

A magnetic resolver includes a stator core made of magnetic material, coils, and a rotor. The stator core has a base plate and protrusions formed integrally with the base plate so as to protrude from a surface of the base plate in the thickness direction. The coils are provided around the respective protrusions. The rotor is disposed so as to face the surface of the base plate with the coils interposed therebetween. The overlapping area between the rotor and each of the protrusions changes with a change in a rotation angle of the rotor relative to the stator core. The stator core has through-holes that pass through the base plate and the respective protrusions in the thickness direction.

Claims (9)

1. A magnetic resolver, comprising:

a stator core that is made of magnetic material and that has a base plate and a plurality of protrusions formed integrally with the base plate so as to protrude from a surface of the base plate in a thickness direction of the base plate;

a plurality of coils provided around the respective protrusions; and

a rotor that is disposed so as to face the surface of the base plate with the coils interposed between the rotor and the surface of the base plate, wherein

an overlapping area between the rotor and each of the protrusions changes with a change in a rotation angle of the rotor relative to the stator core, and

the stator core has a plurality of through-holes that pass through the base plate and the respective protrusions in the thickness direction.

2. The magnetic resolver according to claim 1 , wherein a base portion of each of the protrusions has an extension portion of which an outer peripheral face has a curved shape in a longitudinal cross section of the protrusion.

3. The magnetic resolver according to claim 2 , wherein an outer diameter of the extension portion increases toward the base plate.

4. The magnetic resolver according to claim 1 , wherein a thickness of the protrusions is larger than a skin depth that is a thickness of a layer which is formed in a surface portion of the stator core and in which magnetic flux flows due to a skin effect that occurs when the magnetic resolver is used at an electric frequency within a predetermined range of high electric frequencies.
