Appeal No. 1999-0893 Application No. 08/683,236 stator yoke teeth are mounted side by side in the direction of the fixed shaft with each of the first and second inner and outer stator yokes having a magnet set between them. A barrel shaped rotor is rotatably supported on the bearing and a plurality of rotor teeth of the same shape and pitch are provided on the outer and inner circumference of the rotor. Claim 1 is reproduced as follows: 1. A hybrid-type stepping motor comprising a bearing mounted on a fixed shaft, a barrel rotor rotatably supported by the bearing, a plurality of rotor teeth provided on the outer circumference and inner circumference of the barrel rotor, first and second inner stator yokes arranged side by side in the direction of the fixed shaft with a magnet set therebetween and first and second outer stator yokes arranged side by side in the direction of the fixed shaft with the magnet set therebetween, a plurality of stator yoke teeth, first through fourth axially centered circular coils slots facing the barrel rotor and formed around the outer circumference of the first and second inner stator yokes and the inner circumference of the first and second outer stator yokes, and first through fourth coils wound in a solenoid fashion and seated in the respective coil slots, whereby the stator yokes alternate in polarity and the barrel rotor is interposed between the coils; wherein said magnet set comprises a first magnet interposed between the fixed shaft and the inner stator yokes and a second magnet interposed between the outer stator yokes and the outer wall of the fixed shaft, whereby the magnets face towards each other via the barrel rotor; and wherein the plurality of rotor teeth provided on the outer and inner circumference of the barrel rotor are of the 2Page: Previous 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 NextLast modified: November 3, 2007
