Switched reluctance motor having a vertical moving commutator

Abstract

Disclosed herein is a switched reluctance motor including: a shaft rotatably supporting the switched reluctance motor in an axial direction; a cylindrical part provided at a central portion of the shaft and movable vertically; an elastic member formed to enclose the shaft, formed from an upper portion of the shaft to an upper portion of the cylindrical part to thereby support a rise of the cylindrical part, and having elasticity; commutator segments attached to an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical part and having a cylindrical shape; brushes contacting or not contacting the commutator segments according to vertical movement of the cylindrical part; and a propeller provided on a lower portion of the cylindrical part and pushing air at the time of rotation to thereby move the cylindrical part upwardly.
