Abstract

An electric drive comprising a stator with at least two ring-shaped windings and controllers, and a magnetized rotor with an axis of rotation. Each of said windings comprises at least one coil layer with circumferentially arrayed coils located around said axis, and a layer of electro-insulating material, and each winding is electrically connected to a power source through an individual controller. At least two said windings are electrically connected by their controllers in parallel, with the possibility to function jointly and/or independently. At least two nearest windings are located in such a way that two said coil layers belonging to the different windings are separated by an additional layer of electro-insulating material. The coils of said nearest coil layers of different windings are made the same in transparent view, so that the distances between corresponding parts of said coils of said nearest windings are equal to the thickness of said additional layer of an electro-insulating material. At least two said nearest windings are made as parts of a common multi-layer printed circuit board.
