motor will appear as the description proceeds.
The features of my invention which I believe to be novel and patentable will be pointed out. in the claims appended hereto. The construction and theory of operation of a motor built in accordance with my invention will now be described .in connection with the accompanying drawings in which Fig. 1 shows a section through the motor and Fig. 2 a top view of the same.
Figure 3 shows a section through a further modification. I
Referring now to the drawings and more in particular to Fig 1, my improved motor comprises an alternating current electro-magnet adapted to be excited with single phase current, an armature adapted to be vibrated in synchronism with said altemating' current and a spring connected to the armature adjusted to have the same period of vibration as the armature. In the illustration the magnetic circuit of the electro-magnet is in the form of a nearly closed E-shaped structure I, preferably laminated. The armature 2 is mounted in the open side of the E and arranged to reciprocateback and forth in the opening toward and away from the middle leg I in response to flux impulses produced by single phase current in the coil I wound about the middle'leg I. The armature 2 is rigidly secured to a rod I preferably of non-magnetic material, such as brass, which in the present instance passes through an opening I- in the middle leg I. The rod I is secured in any suitable manner to the free end of a spring reed I. The other end of the reed is clamped to the stationary portion of the motor,
for example, by means of the frame I, strap I and bolt II. The frame I preferably forms a casing integral with the base II, between the sides of which the laminations I are clamped by means of bolts I2. The ends and top of the casing thus formed are left open and a central I in Fig. 1. Where the amplitude ofvibration is short and the reed I fairly long, the reed may be rigidly secured to rod I, in which casethej rod I will be made slightly flexible and the clearance around armature 2 and rod I sufiicient to permit the slight lateral movement of the'free end of reed I. This movement may also be taken care of by providing a small clearance between rod I and the opening in-reed I and adjusting the lock nuts II with respect to collar It so that reed I may slide relative thereto. Rod I might also be provided with a hinged joint just below collar I3 for this purpose. The length of reed I may be made adjustable if desired in order to permit the use of the motor on different fre-. quency sources. The armature 2 is secured to rod I in any convenient manner such as by collars II and pin II. I
When the winding 4 is excited from a source of single phase alternating current, the armature 2 will tend to oscillate back and forth in synchronis'm therewith and preferably with a period of vibration equal in value to the magnetic alternations'; that is, twice the frequency of the alternating current source. Unless the spring I is selected to have a period of vibration equal to that of the armature, the amplitude will be very small, due to the inertia of the moving parts. In order to produce a useful vibration of the armature 2, spring I is selected to have anatural period of vibration equal to, or substantially equal to, the frequency of the single phase source or some multiple thereof. In other words, I make use of the phenomena of mechanical resonance. The most practical arrangement for commercial frequencieswill be where the period of vibration of the spring is equal to twice the frequency of the single phase source. The resonant spring 1 serves to keep the armature in vibration with a small amount of assistance from the electrical winding 4, leaving the major part of the energy developed by the winding for application to the worlr at hand which, in the present illustration, comprises a direct connected compressor or pump.
As illustrated in Fig. 2 the only switching de-.
vicenecessary for this motor is the line switch II. The motor is self-starting due to theposition of the armature when at rest. The first flux impulse through the armature will raise the latter slightly. As this flux impulse dies down, spring I will return the armature to a position somewhat below its first position and the armature will start to move upward again at the same time the second flux impulse, which is now in the reverse direction, becomes effective. The armature will soon attain its full amplitude of vibration and a.
certain amount of excess energy will be available for doing work. The power factor of the motor may be improved if desired by providing a static condenser in parallel therewith.
v In the illustration the base casting i i also forms a compressionchamber i8 provided with an inlet valve 19 and an outlet valve 20. The rod is extended below the armature 2 and attached to a The rod 5 is attached to the piston 2 I in any convenient manner. As thus illustrated, fluid is drawn in through valve i9 on'the upward stroke of the piston and is expelled through valve 20 on the downward stroke. 'The section of the compression chamber 18 occupied by the piston 2| is preferably cylindrical in shape although not necessarily so.
The motor of the present invention is not intended to do heavy work but in applications requiring small amounts of power the motor will compare favorably in efllciency and will be considerably less costly as compared to the small rotary type electric motors. I do not wish to be limited to the precise construction and use shown and described but seek to cover in the appended claims all modifications and usage coming fairly within the true scope of my invention. For instance, the spring I might be placed on the same end of the motor as the armature and the opening 6 in the middle leg 3 omitted. Likewise, in some cases, it may be preferable to use a-spring rigidly secured at both ends to the stationary partof the motor and have'the middle of the spring constitute the vibrating portion and secured to the armature.
Referring to'Figure 3, wherein like'reference characters denote like parts, the motor has a frame 22 secured thereto opposite the frame 8, and a spring 23 has its both ends rigidly securedto the straps 9 and 24 respectively by bolts i0 and 25 respectively, the frame 22 beingintegral with the base II. The middle of the spring 23 constitutes the vibrating portion and is secured to the armature 2 by the rod 5. a
What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is:
1.'An' electric motor of the alternating reciprocating type comprising an electromagnet adapted to be excited with single phase alternating current, an armature therefore adapted to be vibrated in synchronism with said current, a spring reed having one portion rigidly supported on a. fixed abutment and another portion connectedto said armature and adjusted to have the same period of vibration as said armature.
