Motor Drive Assembly

Quick description: An electronic control unit (ECU)

for a motor is mounted to a drum housing or the

like in a plane parallel to the plane defined by

the surface of the drum housing on which the motor

is mounted. The housing for the motor includes an

aperture window. Power contacts from the ECU mate

with contacts from the motor through the window.

Hall-effect sensors attached to the ECU can extend

through the aperture to be proximate a ring magnet

attached to the armature shaft of the motor.

Alternatively, flux guides attached to the drum

housing to transmit magnetic flux information from

the motor to the Hall-effect sensors.

Alternatively, optical sensors attached to the ECU

can detect rotations of a reflector ring attached

to the armature shaft through the window.
