Patent ID: 8264107

Claim:
An AFPM coreless multi-generator and motor with enhanced stator heat dissipation comprising: an enclosed generally cylindrical metallic housing, said housing having a plurality of peripheral channels fashioned within a lateral interior surface of and axially spaced along said closed generally cylindrical housing; a rotary shaft axially mounted within said enclosed generally cylindrical metallic housing and being journaled within bearings mounted at axial ends of said enclosed generally cylindrical metallic housing; a plurality of axially spaced rotor discs mounted upon said rotary shaft and being operable for rotation with said rotary shaft and having permanent magnets arranged on said rotor discs in a generally circular arc shape and a yoke element formed integrally with each rotor disc near but radially spaced from a central portion thereof and said rotary shaft to axially extend by a predetermined length wherein yoke elements of rotors engage with a yoke element of an adjacent rotor so as to allow the engaged elements to serve as a passageway for a magnetic field; and a plurality of stators mounted within and upon said enclosed generally cylindrical housing and being alternatively spaced with respect to said plurality of rotors, said stators having spaced metallic, non-magnetic, arcuate jig plates and arcuate, non-magnetic radially inner and outer lateral side plates, said spaced metallic jig plates and said radially inner and outer side plates forming hermetically sealed stator enclosures and coreless coils being arranged therein with the stator coils being arranged between said spaced jig plates and an oil filling said hermetically sealed stator enclosures and said radially outer lateral side plates being fitted with direct abutting, heat conducting, contact within said peripheral channels of said metallic housing said oil being operable for dissipating heat from said stator coils to said radially outer lateral side plates of said hermetically sealed stator enclosures and said plurality of interior peripheral channels axially spaced along said generally cylindrical metallic housing receiving said radially outer lateral side plates of said plurality of stators in direct heat exchange contact conducting heat from said hermetically sealed stator enclosures into said generally cylindrical metallic housing to dissipate heat away from said hermetically sealed stator enclosures and providing cooling for the AFPM coreless multi-generator and motor.
