  • Publication number: 20230291264
    Abstract: A dynamo electric machine stator which is easy to assemble, includes a stator body with stator grooves and a winding mat with groove sections arranged in the stator grooves and lie one over the other in different radial positions, and with head sections which connect the groove sections. A wave winding conductor changes position by precisely one radial position in the stator grooves in the center of the extension of the wave winding conductor in the winding direction. The winding mat includes a first sub-winding mat with one first set of wave winding conductors for each section, the first sets being joined together in an X-shaped manner in the region of the position change such that the conductors are aligned in a specific manner at the intersections between the wave winding conductors.

  • Publication number: 20230231454
    Abstract: An electric machine designed as a permanently excited synchronous machine, including a rotor with a rotor body arranged on a rotor shaft, a stator, and a displacement device that generates a relative axial movement between the rotor body and the stator based on a torque produced between the rotor shaft and the rotor body. The displacement device has first and second displacement elements and at least one rolling body arranged between the first and second displacement elements. The first displacement element is axially movable and rotatable to a limited degree on the rotor shaft, and the second displacement element is connected to the rotor shaft rotationally fixed. The displacement elements provide that upon rotation of the first displacement element relative to the second or vice versa, the rotor body is pushed on the rotor shaft axially against the spring force.

  • Publication number: 20230216388
    Abstract: An electric radial flow machine having a stator, a rotor body connected to a rotor shaft, and a spring element which applies a spring force to the rotor body in the axial direction such that in a first operating position, the rotor body is held in an axial position in which the overlap between opposing surfaces of the rotor body and the stator is less than 100%. A displacement device with first and second displacement elements generates an axial movement between the rotor body and the stator against the spring force using a torque produced between the rotor shaft and the rotor body so that in the event of a rotation of the first displacement element relative to the second displacement element or vice versa, the rotor body is pushed on the rotor shaft axially against the spring force.

  • Publication number: 20220239181
    Abstract: An electric machine includes a stator, a rotor, a housing and a shaft. The stator is connected to the housing via an electrically insulating torque support. An electrically insulating flange is disposed on the shaft. The shaft is connected to a flange of a bearing shaft via said flange, the bearing shaft housed in a bearing which is arranged in the housing.
