Abstract
A variable reluctance-type resolver which does not deteriorate detecting accuracy, and which can fix the rotor to the rotate shaft cheaply is comprised of a stator 5 on which coils 6 are wound, a rotor provided with protrude poles 4a and an annular stopper 10 made of magnetic material. An outer diameter DS of the stopper 10 is selected to be smaller than a valley diameter DR of the rotor 4. Leakage of the magnetic flux from the stator to the stopper is prevented, and the stopper made of the magnetic material can fix the rotor in cheaper way.
Claims6
A variable reluctance-type resolver, comprising;
- a rotor made of magnetic material, having protruding poles on an outer peripheral surface thereof, and being mounted onto a rotatable shaft;
- a stator fixed coaxial with the rotor with leaving a radial gap, and including an excite coil into which an excite signal may be inputted, a detect coil outputting a signal induced by magnetic flux generated by the excite coil, and plural magnetic poles made of magnetic material and on which the excite coil and the detect coil are wound;
- and
- an annular stopper made of magnetic material and mounted onto the rotatable shaft adjacent to the rotor in the axial direction to fix the rotor on the rotatable shaft, wherein a gap formed between the stator and the stopper is larger than a gap formed between the stator and the rotor.
