Abstract: A housing assembly has a housing having an open end. A plurality of magnets are fixed to an inner surface of the housing. A magnet holder supports the magnets against movement in the axial and circumferential directions. A cover is mounted in the magnet holder for fixing the magnets in the radial direction. The cover is resiliently deformed when assembled to the magnet holder and magnets, and abuts and resiliently urges the magnets towards the inner surface of the housing.

Abstract: An electric motor has a stator, a rotor rotatable with respect to the stator, motor windings, a connection plate electrically connected to the motor windings, and a power lead for connecting the motor to a power source. The power lead is connected to the connection plate by an electrical connection and by a separate mechanical connection. The mechanical connection protects the electrical connection from vibration or movement which may otherwise break the electrical connection.

Abstract: An electric power steering assembly includes a motor which includes a brush assembly. The brush assembly includes a brush base, a plurality of brush units and a plurality of fixing units for fixing the brush units to the brush base. The brush unit includes a brush, a guide rail and a spring. The rail includes two guiding arms, a closed end interconnecting the guiding arms and wings extending from free ends of the guiding arms. Grooves in the brush receive the guiding arms. The fixing unit includes a first fixture and a second fixture. The closed end of the guide rail engages the first fixture. The second fixture includes two columns spaced from each other. Each column defines a slot in a top end. Protrusions extend from a side of each slot to lock the wings in the slots.

Abstract: The invention relates to a preparation method of a polymeric phase-change material, comprising: using 1, 2 or 3 of (meth)acrylate poly(ethylene glycol) n-alkyl ether ester as a raw material, wherein the (meth)acrylate poly(ethylene glycol) n-alkyl ether ester has a structural general formula of CH2?C(CH3)—COO(CH2CH2O)mCnH2n+1 or CH2?CH—COO(CH2CH2O)mCnH2n+1, m=1 to 100, and n=10 to 50; washing the raw material with a solution of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate having a mass percentage of 1% to 10% to remove a polymerization inhibitor, and subjecting reduced-pressure distillation, and then to a polymerization reaction by adopting one of the following process; 1. polymerization reaction initiated by irradiation; 2. polymerization reaction initiated by an initiator; 3.

Abstract: The present invention provides a thermo-regulated fiber and a preparation method thereof by using a new polymeric phase-change material and adopting a new fiber preparation method, and the resulting thermo-regulated fiber has good thermo-regulating properties and a good thermal stability. The thermo-regulated fiber has a composite structure, and the cross-sectional structure is an sea-island type or a concentric sheath/core type, characterised in that the polymeric phase-change material is a polyethylene glycol n-alkyl ether (structural formula: H(OCH2CH2)mOCnH2n+1), where the repeating unit number m of the ethylene glycol is 1 to 100, the number n of carbon atoms in the n-alkyl is 11 to 30. The present invention further relates to a preparation method of a thermo-regulated fiber which includes one of the following processes: (1) A melt composite spinning process; (2) Solution composite spinning process; (3) Electrostatic solution composite spinning process.
