Abstract
An axial field rotary energy device can include a housing having an axis with an axial direction. A stator assembly can include a plurality of stator panels that are discrete panels from each other. The stators panels can be mechanically and stationarily coupled to the housing. Each stator panel can include a printed circuit board (PCB) having coils that are electrically conductive, each stator panel consists of a single electrical phase. In addition, rotors can be rotatably mounted within the housing on opposite axial ends of the stator assembly. The rotors can be mechanically coupled together with a rotor spacer. Each rotor can include magnets. In addition, in one version, no rotor is disposed between axially adjacent ones of the stator panels.
