Patent number: 10727705Abstract: A shim pack to reduce vibration of a stator core is disclosed. The stator core may include a plurality of laminates coupled to a dovetail of a keybar and separated by a space block. The shim pack may include an elongated body extending from a first end including a dovetail slot configured to couple to the dovetail of the keybar to a second end extending radially at least substantially an entire length of an adjacent space block. A stator and related generator including the shim pack may also be provided.Type: GrantFiled: May 12, 2017Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Lakshminarayana Kanakamedala, Richard Nils Dawson, Jayan Kaadaapuram George

Patent number: 10468931Abstract: A generator connection ring support device includes a base, a first protruding member extending from the base, a second protruding member extending from the base substantially parallel to the first protruding member, a fastener hole extending through the base and the first protruding member, and a clamping hole extending through the base into the first slot. The clamping hole is configured to at least partly house a clamping element. The first and second protruding members define a first slot therebetween to receive a connection ring, each protruding member having a first end proximate the base and a second end distal the base, the first protruding member configured to be fastened to an end winding axial support at the distal end of the first protruding member, the first protruding member having a longitudinal axis, the fastener hole aligned with the longitudinal axis of the first protruding member.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2016Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: GENERAL ELECTRIC COMPANYInventors: Karina Elizabeth Padilla, Anthony Salvatore Arrao, Jayan Kaadaapuram George, Jason Rueda

Patent number: 10415741Abstract: A system for laterally moving an industrial machine is provided. The system includes a pair of rail elements configured to be positioned laterally below and support the industrial machine, the rail elements allowing the industrial machine to be moved laterally from a first operative position to a second, maintenance position; and a pair of linear actuators configured to laterally move the industrial machine as from the first, operative position to the second, maintenance position. The rail elements may include a first skid configured to couple laterally to an underside of the industrial machine at a first axial position; and a second skid configured to couple laterally to an underside of the industrial machine at a second axial position. First and second segmented support rails are positioned in sliding, aligned contact with the first and second skid, respectively, and are configured to be supported on a respective machine foundation.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2018Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: General Electric CompanyInventors: Michael Alan Davi, Max Dryden, Jayan Kaadaapuram George, Jonathan Peter Mallory, Matthew Robert Martin, Sean Cornelius O'Meara, Cornelis Antonius Fransiscus Segeren, John Russell Yagielski
