PM motor and generator with a vertical stator core assembly formed of pressure shaped processed ferromagnetic particles

An electricity generator drivably operable about a generator axis, comprising:

• a rotor rotatable about said generator axis and extending a first radial distance outwardly therefrom to a first sequence of generally arcuate regions of predetermined magnetization having a first radially outwardly facing confronting magnetic surface of first principal dimension in parallel with said generator axis, and extending a second radial distance greater than said first radial distance to a second sequence of generally arcuate regions of predetermined magnetization having a second radially inwardly facing confronting magnetic surface of second principal dimension in parallel with said generator axis and having a rotor shaft fixed thereto and drivable for rotation;
• a stator core assembly having a select number of spaced isotropic core components formed of pressure shaped processed ferromagnetic particles which are generally mutually insulatively associated, each said core component being generally disposed in parallel relationship with said generator axis, having a flux interaction region in the upper portion and oppositely disposed first and second flux rotor first confronting magnetic surface generally coextensively with said first principal dimension and defining a first functioning air gap therewith, said second flux interaction surface being located adjacent said rotor second confronting magnetic surface generally coextensively with said second principal dimension and defining a second functioning air gap therewith, each said core component having a winding region extending generally in parallel relationship with said generator axis a field winding length from spaced adjacency with said flux interaction region to a back iron region, said back iron region interconnecting said core components in magnetic field exchange relationship;
• and
• a field winding assembly including winding components located around said core components and extending in electromagnetic flux coupling relationship about said winding region, said winding components being electrically coupled with a generator output for providing a generated potential upon driven rotation of said rotor about said generator axis.
