Abstract: The unique magnetic focusing effect of spoke type permanent magnet vernier motors gives them the advantage of high torque density. However, when the ratio of rotor pole pairs to stator winding pole pairs is higher than 5, the flux barrier effect in such motors at high pole ratios seriously limits the magnetic field modulation effect, which affects the promotion and application of spoke type motors. Therefore, a consequent pole integrated rotor structure with an inverted T-type permanent magnet is proposed. This structure can weaken the flux barrier problem mentioned above, enhance the magnetic field modulation effect of the motor, thereby increasing the amplitude of low order modulation harmonics and enhancing the back electromotive force and torque density of the motor. Firstly, the causes of flux barrier effect and its adverse effects on motor performance are analyzed. Secondly, the structure and working principle of the inverted T-type rotor are introduced, and explain that its connecting bridge is a low order modulated harmonic to construct a new magnetic circuit and weaken the flux barrier effect. Finally, the electromagnetic performance of traditional spoke structure and inverted T-type is compared through finite element simulation. The results indicate that under the same conditions, the inverted T-type has higher torque density and lower magnetic steel consumption.
