| Abstract |
In thermodynamic motor systems, mechanic elements of power transmission are substituted by electro – mechanical respectively purely electrical designs. In the drives sector there is an effort to vary the gearing ratio stepless in dependence of the load to accomplish highest efficiency of the drive assemble. It is possible to comprise the force transmission, the mechanic clutch, the gearing and the function of a mechanical differential into one gearbox. This gearbox includes electrically excited magnetic coils and permanent magnets in yokes. The gearing ratio is adjustable in defined steps. This paper describes an overview of the elements of the Electro – Magnetic Gear (ELMAG), first results of measurements on the new concept of poles arrangement and the calculation of torque. |
