Patent ID: 7999427

Claim:
A directed flux motor, comprising: a permanent magnet; a first ferrous member non-rotatably fixed to the permanent disc magnet; a second ferrous member non-rotatably fixed to the permanent disc magnet; a non-ferromagnetic filler interposed between the first ferrous metal member and the second ferrous metal member and electrically isolating of the first ferrous metal member from the second ferrous metal member; wherein said permanent magnet generates at least two magnetic flux paths through said first and second ferrous metal members; first and second planetary gear assemblies respectively including first and second stationary members including stator teeth wound with wire to define an electromagnet and first and second rotating bodies including rotor teeth; whereby flux traveling through said magnetic flux paths causes rotation of said rotor teeth to thereby drive said planetary gear assemblies, and wherein said planetary gear assemblies drive output shafts to rotate.
