Brushless Dc-Motor
First Claim
1. Method for controlling a brushless DC motor (46) comprising a stator (44) and rotor (54), which has a highly reduced reduction gear of an actuating drive for a flap or valve in order to regulate a gas or liquid volume flow, in particular in the field of heating, ventilation and climatisation (HLK), fire and room protection, characterised in that the electrical current flow in the stator coils (A, B, C) is commutated under programme control without integral position sensors.

Abstract
According to the invention, a DC-motor (46) actuates a highly reduced reduction gear of an actuating drive for a flap or for a valve in order to regulate a gas or liquid volume flow, in particular in the field of heating/ventilation/climatisation, or fire or room protection. The electric flow of current in the stator coils (A, B, C) is commutated in a program-controlled manner without integrated position sensors. The rotations of the rotor (54) of the DC-motor (46) can be counted by means of special algorithms. Problems related to the principle of motor rotation speed of less than approximately 200 rpm are prevented. The DC-motor (46) comprises a stator (44) which comprises three stator coils (A, B, C) which extend over 3n stator poles (52), and an annular-shaped permanent magnet rotor (54) having 2m permanent magnet segments with alternating polarity (N, S), a coaxial cup-shaped external rotor (110) and a coaxial drive shaft (108), whereby n and m are whole multiplication factor numbers (1, 2, 3, 4) and are different from each other. The drive shaft (112) comprises, preferably, a spring (120) for the automatic return in case of an interruption in current.
