Abstract

An electric motor (100) includes an excitation stator (10), a salient-pole rotor (20) and an excitation rotor (30), any two of the excitation stator (10), the salient-pole rotor (20) and the excitation rotor (30) being rotatable relative to each other; and a switching actuator (50) configured to select at least one of the salient-pole rotor (20) and the excitation rotor (30) to serve as a rotor rotatable relative to the excitation stator (10) by selectively fixing relative positions of two of the excitation stator (10), the salient-pole rotor (20) and the excitation rotor (30).
