Title:
MAGNETIC GEAR SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/044374
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Improvements to aspects of magnet gear systems are disclosed. In various aspects, a support system for rotors includes bearing supports to maintain an air gap between adjacent rotors. In various aspects, a modular system for creating magnetic poles using a single magnet. In various aspects, an eccentric rotor design uses a flux shield to reduce losses to improve performance of the magnetic gear system. In various aspects, a multi-stage magnetic gear systems include combinations of axial and/or radial flux rotor designs. In various aspects, a back iron design includes contoured features designed to retain magnets in a press-fit arrangement.
