Abstract: An armature for an electromotive device having a unitary coil and armature is disclosed. The armature may include a coil having inner and outer wave winding portions separated by an insulator, each of the wave winding portions comprising a plurality of sheet metal conductors, and a commutator having a plurality of sheet metal commutator segments each being integrally formed with one of the conductors. The armature may be fabricated from a pair of conductive sheets by forming in each of the conductive sheets a plurality of conductive bands each having first and second conductor portions, shaping the conductive sheets into inner and outer cylinders, positioning the inner cylindrical conductive sheet inside the outer cylindrical conductive sheet, forming a coil from the first conductor portions of the inner and outer cylindrical conductive sheets, and forming a commutator from the second conductor portions of the inner and outer cylindrical conductive sheets.

Abstract: System for controlling an electric assisted turbocharger comprise an electric motor disposed within turbocharger, and an electric motor controller electrically coupled thereto for purposes of controlling the same. A memory is electrically coupled to the electric motor controller and is configured with a condition map that correlates electric motor instructions with engine and turbocharger conditions. The system includes sensors that are electrically coupled to the electric motor controller, and that are configured to sense conditions of at least one of the turbocharger and the internal combustion engine that is coupled thereto. The electric motor controller is configured to control the electric motor based upon the input received from the plurality of sensors as compared to the data contained multi-dimensional condition map.

Abstract: A system for controlling the temperature of an electric motor in an electric assisted turbocharger that is coupled to an internal combustion engine has a turbocharger with an electric motor disposed within a motor housing. The motor housing has a motor housing inlet and a motor housing outlet. The turbocharger has a compressor with a compressor inlet and a compressor outlet. The turbocharger also has a turbine. A first cooling hose is coupled to the compressor outlet and coupled to the motor housing inlet. A second cooling hose is coupled to the motor housing outlet and coupled to the compressor inlet.
