Brief Description of the Drawings
Fig. 1 presents magnetic core test data showing how the volt-amp reactance power required to set up a constant magnetic flux action in an air gap, as assured by constant a. c. voltage excitation of a magnetizing winding, falls short of the associated power of the potential implicit in the force action across that air gap.
Fig. 2 depicts the test structure to which Fig. I data applies.
Fig. 3 depicts the magnetization action at work in causing magnetic 5 flux to traverse an airgap and turn a corner in a circuit through a magnetic core.
Fig. 4 shows the configuration of a test device used to prove the operating principles of the invention described.
Fig. 5 in its several illustrations depicts the progressive rotor pole to stator pole relationship as a rotor turns through a range of angular positions in a preferred embodiment of a machine according to the invention.
Fig. 6 shows the form of a disc member which provides location for four permanent magnets in the machine described.
Fig. 7 shows a cross-section of the magnetic circuit structure of a machine embodying the invention.
Fig. 8 shows a six stator pole configuration with a seven pole rotor and depicts a schematic series connected linking of the magnetizing windings of diametrically opposite stator poles.
