MAGNET ARRANGEMENT METHOD AND ROTOR MANUFACTURING METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240120788 titled 'MAGNET ARRANGEMENT METHOD AND ROTOR MANUFACTURING METHOD

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for arranging magnets in a Halbach array by forming first and second magnet groups with opposite magnetic force directions.

  • Simplified Explanation:

The method involves arranging magnetized magnets in a Halbach array by forming two groups with opposite magnetic force directions and assembling them together.

  • Explanation:

- Form first magnet group with magnets oriented in one direction of magnetic force. - Form second magnet group with magnets oriented in the opposite direction of magnetic force. - Assemble multiple first and second magnet groups together.

Potential Applications

This technology could be applied in: - Magnetic levitation systems - Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines - Magnetic bearings

Problems Solved

This technology helps in: - Efficiently arranging magnets in a specific array - Controlling magnetic forces in a desired direction

Benefits

The benefits of this technology include: - Enhanced magnetic field control - Improved efficiency in magnet arrangements - Potential for increased performance in magnetic applications

Potential Commercial Applications

"Optimizing Magnet Arrangement for Improved Performance"

Possible Prior Art

There are existing methods for arranging magnets in specific configurations, but this particular method of forming first and second magnet groups with opposite magnetic force directions may be novel.

Unanswered Questions

1. How does this method compare to traditional methods of magnet arrangement? 2. What specific industries or applications would benefit most from this technology?


Original Abstract Submitted

a magnet arrangement method capable of easily assembling magnets is provided. a magnet arrangement method according to one aspect of the present invention is a magnet arrangement method for arranging a plurality of magnetized magnets in a halbach array, the method comprising: a process of forming a first magnet group by combining magnets in such a way that a direction of a magnetic force that acts on the magnets is oriented in a first direction; a process of forming a second magnet group by combining magnets in such a way that the direction of a magnetic force that acts on the magnets is oriented in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction; and a process of assembling a plurality of the first magnet groups and a plurality of the second magnet groups.
