Abstract: A generator module for a vehicle includes a housing with a first conical surface, a rotor assembly with a second conical surface, aligned with the first conical surface, and a spring arranged to push the second conical surface into contact with the first conical surface. In an example embodiment, the first conical surface or the second conical surface includes a plastic surface or a friction paper surface. In an example embodiment, the rotor assembly is axially displaceable within the housing to compress the spring and move the second conical surface away from the first conical surface.

Abstract: A centering jig for a generator rotor including a housing, a pin, a spring, and a compressing element. The housing has a plate arranged for bolting to a generator housing, the pin extends through the plate and has a head portion, the spring is arranged to apply a force to the head portion, and the compressing element is for compressing the spring. In some example embodiments, the plate has a first pair of apertures radially offset from the pin. In some example embodiments, the housing also includes a pair of tubular portions extending from the plate and aligned with respective ones of the first pair of apertures. In an example embodiment, the plate also includes a second pair of apertures radially offset from the first pair of apertures. In an example embodiment, the pin has a distal end arranged for contacting a shaft of the generator rotor.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed towards systems and methods of implementing multi-player online games using cloud computing. By using cloud computing (also known as a cloud network), hardware and/or software requirements for running the multi-player online game can be minimized as the game itself would be executed and run using resources available in the cloud network rather than based on local resources, such as a laptop or gaming console. Different users situated at different locations can all be provided access to the same game without the need for the specialized hardware, software, and resource levels.
