  • Patent number: 9287747
    Abstract: A wind power generator with a closed internal cooling circuit has a stator that is implemented as sheet metal and includes a winding system which forms winding heads at the end faces of the stator. The stator is enclosed by a cooling jacket at least in the region of the laminated core, wherein permanent magnets of a rotor are disposed on a magnet wheel jacket embodied as a hollow shaft. The magnet wheel jacket is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to a shaft or shaft stubs by way of support elements at its end faces, wherein in its interior the hollow shaft has at least one tube whose lateral surface area runs at an equidistant clearance from the magnet wheel jacket. Blowers are mounted at the end faces of the rotor.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 25, 2010
    Date of Patent: March 15, 2016
    Assignee: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT

  • Patent number: 8188631
    Abstract: A rotor for an electrical machine includes a first shaft part and a second shaft part, which is arranged separately from the first shaft part. A first supporting element is connected in a manner fixed against rotation to the first shaft part, and a second supporting element is connected in a manner fixed against rotation to the second shaft part. The rotor has a yoke which connects the first supporting element to the second supporting element and includes a plurality of laminates arranged one behind the other, and which has cutouts extending in the direction of the axis of rotation in the interior of the yoke, and permanent magnets arranged in the cutouts. The yoke has holes extending in the direction of the axis of rotation, with tensioning pins extending through the holes in the yoke to brace the laminates.
