Abstract: A casing for an electric machine includes an oil tank disposed on a lower part of the casing opposite an upper part of the casing. An oil pump is disposed between the oil tank and the lower part. The oil tank includes a funnel section oriented such that the smallest section is linked to a suction inlet of the oil pump and the largest section collects the oil running down in the casing.

Abstract: A method for correcting a temperature measurement of a winding of an AC electrical machine of an electric-propulsion or hybrid-propulsion motor vehicle, which comprises constantly retrieving a measured temperature value of the winding measured by a temperature sensor located on the surface of the winding, a measured value of the speed of rotation of the electrical machine measured by a position sensor, and a measured value of the effective current flowing through an inverter controlling the electrical machine measured by a current sensor.

Abstract: A device cools a power train of a vehicle including an electric machine with a wound rotor coupled to a speed reducer. The device includes: an oil cooling circuit for cooling the electric machine, the circuit include a heat exchanger connected to an oil tank and a water circuit that connects members of the power train through the radiator of the vehicle; a temperature adjuster of the oil flow supplied at the outlet of the exchanger to a distribution circuit projecting the oil to elements for heating the electric machine; a circuit for lubricating the reducer, the circuit including a sump, the bottom of the sump forming a reserve of oil for lubricating the reducer; and a bypass channel at the outlet of the exchanger, for conveying a portion of the temperature-adjusted oil in contact with the bottom of the sump in order to cool the oil reserve.

Abstract: A cooling system cools an electric machine including a casing, a rotor rotatably supported by the casing, and a stator fixed to the casing. The cooling system includes a flow circuit that brings a cooling liquid into contact with active parts of the electric machine. A main reservoir is provided in a lower portion of the casing. A pump injects the cooling liquid into the flow circuit. The level of cooling liquid in the casing interfaces with a lower portion of the rotor when the pump stops. A controller controls the pump to stop the pump when a temperature of the cooling liquid is below a given threshold, and start the pump as soon as the temperature of the liquid reaches the threshold such that the liquid is drawn by the main reservoir pump towards a secondary reservoir to lower the level of cooling liquid in the casing.
