Flux-concentrating stator assembly
A stator assembly for an electric motor includes an annular core centered about an axis of rotation of an inner rotor which the stator assembly surrounds. The stator assembly has a plurality of electrical windings, each wound in a respective spiral around the outer surface of the core and arranged for current to flow in the windings. In some embodiments, the respective spirals are spaced from and parallel with one another. The stator assembly may have pole pieces that substantially enclose the core and windings. The pole pieces may be configured to taper both radially outward and axially inward to thereby concentrate flux from the core to an inner surface of the pole pieces facing the rotor.
