Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0220293A2] Disclosed is an electric motor system with reduced torque ripple comprising a sinusoidally magnetized permanent magnet, a sinusoidal inverter, a higher resolution position sensor, a composite iron stator yoke, a composite reinforced plastic rotor core and shaft; and a high gear ratio gear reduction box. The novel combination of magnet, inverter, sensor plastic rotor core and shaft and high gear ratio gear box substantially reduces the torque ripple on the shaft of said motor system.
