ABSTRACT:
A rotor (12) is mounted in a stator (14) with radial magnetic bearings (16, 19) and with an axial magnetic bearing (40) in a contactless manner. The axial magnetic bearing (40) produces an axial magnetic field with a magnet coil (40) and a yoke iron (44) mounted on the stator (14). An axially magnetized permanent magnet (50) is provided on the rotor (12), located approxaimately axially opposite the yoke iron (44). A permanently axially magnetized compensating magnet (54) is provided on the stator (14) and arranged axially opposite the permanent magnet of the rotor (50) and polarized in the opposite direction, such that the permanent magnet (50) of the rotor and the compensating magnet (54) repel each other. In a center position, the rotor is bias-free by compensating the forces of attraction between the permanent magnet of the rotor and the yoke iron. As a result, the center position of the rotor can be adjusted with relatively small magnet coil flows. This results in small magnet coils, produces less heat and reduces the required power of the axial bearing.
