1. A drive motor comprising:
- a motor shaft;
a main rotor mounted on said motor shaft;
an auxiliary rotor mounted on said motor shaft, said auxiliary rotor having a ring segment;
a single common stator surrounding said main rotor and said auxiliary rotor, said single common stator having a plurality of phase windings; and
control means connected to said plurality of phase windings for controlling rotational direction by energizing individual phase windings of said plurality of phase windings in a specific sequence, said control means controlling rotational speed by controlling frequency of said energizing of said individual phase windings, and said control means controlling stopping position of said main rotor shaft by energizing one of said plurality of phase windings interacting with said ring segment causing said main rotor to stop in a specific position.

Abstract
A driving motor, for continuous and positioning type operation, includes two different types of rotors, a main rotor and an auxiliary rotor, corresponding to the type of operation required. Both rotors are arranged within the field of a common stator and are controlled by this common stator. The common stator is controlled by a control device in accordance with the function of the rotor to be driven. The driving motor can particularly be used to drive sewing machines.
