Abstract

A magnetic levitation reaction sphere includes a spherical-housing-shaped rotor and three groups of stators. Each group includes two stators using the sphere center of the rotor as a symcenter. Axes of the three groups are mutually orthogonal. Each stator comprises a stator core and a coil array. An air gap is reserved between an inner surface of each stator core and the outer surface of the rotor. Through grooves are radially formed in the stator cores. The coil arrays are disc-type motor stator windings. Two effective sides of each coil in each coil array are respectively placed in two through grooves of the corresponding stator core. The magnetic levitation reaction sphere has low cost; levitation and rotation driving are integrated; the magnetic levitation reaction sphere has a simple and compact structure, a small size and a low mass, and relates to inherent stable levitation; and the levitation control is simple.
