Abstract: A totally enclosed fan cooled (TEFC) induction motor or other type of induction motor auxiliary cooling system has a buffet thermal shroud that is oriented in opposed spaced relationship over existing motor housing cooling fins. An airflow channel is defined between the motor cooling fins and the shroud, for direction and passage of a cooling airflow. Tabs are oriented in the airflow channel between opposed cooling fins where they are in thermal and fluid communication with the cooling air flow. In some embodiments the tabs are shroud fingers that project inwardly from the shroud. The tabs or shroud fingers create turbulence in the cooling air flow that increases convective heat transfer efficiency and contact time between the cooling air and motor cooling fins. Tabs or shroud fingers also absorb heat from the cooling air flow. Shroud fingers also transfer that absorbed heat conductively to the shroud.

Abstract: A stator is provided for a bicycle generator hub. The stator comprises a coil bobbin and a plurality of first and second yokes. The first and second yokes are radially arranged on opposite axial ends of the bobbin. Each of the first and second yokes includes a magnetic pole section extending along an axial direction of the coil bobbin and facing the external circumferential surface of the coil bobbin, an insertion section t extending along the axial direction of the coil bobbin and facing the internal circumferential surface of the coil bobbin, and a connecting section extending radial direction of the coil bobbin and connecting the first magnetic pole section and the first insertion section together. The insertion sections of the first yokes have first end portions that abut two corresponding ones of second end portion of the insertion sections of the second yokes.
