ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN APPARATUS

1. Electric drive comprising a rotor (17) bearing permanent magnets and a stator (6) which carries conductor windings and which surrounds and supports the rotor (17), the conductor windings being alternately excitable by way of a control unit and the permanent magnets which are arranged on the rotor (17) generating a grid-shaped magnetic field in such a manner that tangentially adjacent magnetic poles (9, 10) have like magnetization, but magnetic poles (9, 10) diagonally adjacent thereto have unlike magnetization, and the conductor windings comprising two conductor assemblies (2 or 3, 4 or 5), the conductors of which form a number of parallel rows, characterized in that the conductor windings comprise two conductor arrangements (2, 3 or 4, 5) running perpendicular to one another, that the rows of each conductor arrangement (2, 3 or 4, 5) are arranged with an equal spacing b, that the polarity directions are opposite in the n th or (n+2) row and in the (n+1) or (n+3) row, and that the permanent magnets on the rotor (17) are distributed in such a manner that axially adjacent rows each have the same spacing b.
