MODULAR AXIAL FIELD ROTARY ENERGY DEVICE WITH PCB STATOR AND ENHANCED VARIABLE FREQUENCY DRIVE SYSTEM

Abstract: a system has an axial field rotary energy device with a housing, an axis and a rotor with a shaft, bearings, rotor disks and permanent magnets. a printed circuit board (pcb) stator is between the rotor disks to define an air gap on each side thereof. a variable frequency drive (vfd) assembly has a vfd housing and first pads coupled to inductors to facilitate heat removal from the inductors. a concave cradle is coupled to a ferromagnetic core and has a same contour as an outer surface of the ferromagnetic core. a second pad is coupled to a rectifier module. a third pad is coupled to switching devices and has pins to align the switching devices with the third pad. standoffs are coupled to the vfd housing to support a first printed circuit board assembly (pcba). a second pcba is mounted to a shield plate above the first pcba.
