Abstract: A coil bobbin for a brushless alternator includes an integrally formed one piece bobbin body that has a first end, a second end and a central passage that extends from the first end to the second end. A coil support portion of the body is positioned at the first end and has a first cylinder of a first diameter bordered by flanges which extend past the first cylinder. A base portion of the body is positioned at the second end. A bobbin extension portion is positioned between the coil support portion and the base portion. The bobbin extension portion includes a second cylinder of a second diameter which is smaller than the first diameter.

Abstract: A brushless alternator has a housing with a front portion and a rear portion. A stator assembly, rotor assembly, and coil support are positioned within the housing. The coil support has a shank portion of a first outer diameter and a base portion of a second outer diameter greater than first outer diameter. The base portion includes a plurality of air flow openings that extend through a second sidewall. A rectifier and regulator assembly is positioned on the outside of the rear portion of the housing. A front fan circulates air across the stator assembly at the front portion of the housing. A rear fan creates a cooling flow of air through flow openings of the coil support to circulate air across the regulator and rectifier assembly and the stator assembly.
