Electric motor

Abstract

The invention relates to an electric motor comprising: (A) a ring-like rotor which comprises: a plurality of electromagnets that are equi-angularly spaced and equi-radially disposed in a ring-like manner; and, (B) a stator which comprises: a plurality of solenoids that are equi-angularly spaced and equi-radially disposed, each of said solenoids having a solenoid core, which in turn has a rectangular shape in cross-section, and a cavity; and a solenoid coil within each of said solenoids; wherein said electromagnets are arranged such that they can move through said cavities of the solenoid cores in a rotational manner, wherein negative and positive ends, respectively, of the plurality of said electromagnets are connected in parallel to respective negative and positive peripheral strips, and wherein current to the electromagnet coils is supplied from a power supply via two brushes, respectively to the negative and positive strips.
