Abstract: The invention concerns a piston compressor cylinder arrangement (1), particularly for a hermetically enclosed refrigerant compressor, with a cylinder body (2) and a cylinder head arrangement (7), the cylinder body (2) having a first front side (6) in the area of the cylinder head arrangement (7) and a second front side (8) at the other end. It is endeavoured to manufacture such a cylinder arrangement in a cost-effective manner without having to fear for a deformation during mounting. For this purpose, a cup-shaped mounting sleeve (9) surrounds the cylinder body (2) over its full axial working length with a radial distance on all sides.

Abstract: The invention provides a rotor for an electrical motor, a tool for making a rotor core and a method of making the rotor. The rotor could be incorporated e.g. in a line-start motor and comprises a squirrel cage and magnet located in a rotor core. The magnets are, in one end of the rotor, secured by an end plate with apertures which are larger than the magnet openings, and the end plate is indexed relative to the magnet slots such that a first portion of openings into the magnet slots is in communication with the aperture and such that a remaining, second, portion of the magnet slots is covered by the end plate. In one aspect, the end plate forms an integrated part of the rotor core and comprises openings cooperating with conductor slots to form through-going passages for conductors of the squirrel cage. In that way, the end plate is held in a completely fixed position by the squirrel cage which is moulded directly onto the core and into the conductor slots.

Abstract: The invention provides a rotor for an electrical motor. The rotor comprises both a squirrel cage and a number of magnets and can be inserted e.g. in a line-start motor. To secure the magnets in cavities in a core of the rotor, an end plate is attached to one axial end face by rivet means, and to simplify manufacturing of the rotor, the rivet means forms part of at least one of the short circuit rings of the squirrel cage.

Abstract: The invention relates to a rotor for an electric motor, particularly an electric line-start motor, comprising axially accommodating spaces (4 to 6) for conductor rods, and axially extending receiving spaces (10, 11) for permanent magnets (14, 15), which are-designed and located in such a way that they generate a permanent magnet field with a magnet axis (22) and a neutral axis (23). The aim of the invention is to ensure that the rotor runs as regularly as possible during the operation of the electric motor. To this end, the diameter of the rotor along the magnet axis is larger than that along the neutral axis (23).
