DG Innovate (DGI) is pleased to announce that the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) has issued DGI’s first-ever Chinese patent, covering its proprietary Pareta® electric drive system. This grants DGI intellectual property rights for this technology in China, allowing the Company to expand its footprint in the world’s largest market for electric vehicles (EVs).
Commenting, Peter Bardenfleth-Hansen, DGI CEO, said: “The grant of a patent from the CNIPA is a significant milestone for DGI. The market for EVs in China is growing at an unprecedented rate and Pareta® is a unique and transformative solution: it is safe, scalable, and flexible in its applications, with the potential to transform the future of transport in its path towards decarbonisation. Along with our R&D team, I look forward to driving our growth in the region, leveraging the best of British innovation internationally.”
The Pareta® electric drive system features a parallel and efficient coil system with independent integrated power electronics for each section. The patent specifically relates to a version of the axial flux motor which features a novel winding and magnetic circuit arrangement that keeps costs to a minimum whilst maximising efficiency. DGI has several other motor-related international patents in process, each with unique winding and magnetic geometries.
