| 20080252170 | DYNAMOELECTRIC MACHINE INSULATOR AND METHOD - A dynamoelectric machine insulator includes, a body having a plurality of holes therethrough at least some of the plurality of holes being receptive of a lead such that a lead extending through each of the plurality of holes is electrically isolated from a lead extending through each of the other of the plurality of holes, and at least one channel in the body extending arcuately along a perimetrical extent of the body. The at least one channel configured and dimensioned to insulate at least one lead routed therein. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090009015 | BRUSHLESS ELECTRIC MACHINE WITH STATIONARY SHAFT AND METHOD OF MAKING SAME - Disclosed herein is an electric machine. The electric machine includes, a housing defining an internal volume, a stationary shaft fixedly attached to the housing, a stationary field coil attached to the shaft, a pole assembly rotatable about the shaft, and a pulley fixedly attached to the pole assembly being positioned externally of the internal volume. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090066182 | STATOR WINDING ASSEMBLY AND METHOD - Disclosed herein is an electric machine stator. The electric machine stator includes a tubular body with a plurality of radial slots formed into a perimetrical surface thereof, each of the plurality of slots having a width that varies over at least a portion of a radial depth of the slot such that the slot width is narrower near the perimetrical surface than the slot width further from the perimetrical surface. The stator further includes at least one winding positioned within each of the plurality of slots and at least one of the at least one winding is deformed within the slot such that at least one dimension of the at least one winding is greater than a narrowest slot width dimension thereby retaining the winding within the slot. | 03-12-2009 |
| 20090179530 | STATOR WINDING HAVING SAME RADIAL POSITIONS - Disclosed is an improved stator for a dynamoelectric machine including a stator core which has a plurality of core slots extending axially from a first end of the stator core to a second end of the stator core. The stator also includes a stator winding having a plurality of phases. Each phase of the stator winding includes at least a first filar. The first filar extends around the stator core and form a plurality of layers and has a plurality of slot segments disposed in the plurality of core slots. The slot segments are alternately connected at the first and second ends of the stator core by a plurality of end loop segments. The slot segments are configured such that at least two consecutive slot segments are disposed in substantially the same radial position relative to additional slot segments of the plurality of slot segments disposed in the respective core slots, and the at least two consecutive slot segments are disposed at differing radial distances from a central axis of the stator core. | 07-16-2009 |
| 20100019607 | SPOOL ASSEMBLY FOR AN ELECTRIC MACHINE - An electric machine includes a housing, a stator mounted within the housing, and a rotor including a spool assembly. The spool assembly includes a spool having a main body portion having a first end portion that extends substantially uninterrupted to a second end portion through an intermediate portion. The spool further includes a first plurality of mounting elements provided on the first end portion and a second plurality mounting elements provided on the first end portion. A star member is secured to the first end portion of the spool. | 01-28-2010 |
| 20100139082 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR LOADING STATOR WINDINGS INTO A STATOR CORE - An apparatus for loading stator windings into a stator core. The apparatus includes an arbor member including a body having an outer diametric portion including a plurality of slots. The apparatus also includes a first guide track having a first end that is positioned adjacent the outer diametric portion. A second guide track includes a first end is positioned adjacent the outer diametric portion and spaced from the first end of the first guide track. The apparatus further includes a third guide track including a first end is positioned adjacent the outer diametric portion and spaced from the first end of the first guide track and the first end of the second guide track. At least one of the first, second, and third guide tracks and the arbor member is positionable to guide slot segment portions of corresponding first, second, and third stator windings into predetermined ones of the slots. | 06-10-2010 |
| 20110031842 | COMPONENT FOR AN ELECTRIC MACHINE - A component for an electric machine includes a spool having a main body portion provided with a first end portion that extends substantially uninterrupted to a second end portion through an intermediate portion. A plurality of mounting elements are provided on the first end portion. A star member is operatively connected to the spool. The star member includes a main body, a plurality of flap members that extend from the main body and collectively define a central opening, and a plurality of mounting members that extend into the central opening. The plurality of mounting members engage with corresponding ones of the plurality of mounting elements to detachably mount the star member to the first end portion of the spool. | 02-10-2011 |
