Patent number: 12278527Abstract: A conductor bar of a cage rotor of an asynchronous machine has a longitudinal extension and includes first and second sections in the longitudinal extension. The first section has a hardness which is lower than a hardness of the second section and is realized through soft annealing, brief inductive heating or heating by a flame so as to enable a compression of the first section of the conductor bar by way of axial pressure after axially joining the conductor bar in a slot of a magnetically conductive body of the cage rotor, with the first section abutting an inner wall of the slot of magnetically conductive body of the cage rotor.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2020Date of Patent: April 15, 2025Assignee: Innomotics GmbHInventors: Klaus Büttner, Klaus Kirchner, Matthias Warmuth

Patent number: 12074484Abstract: A component for an electric machine includes a flat region in which an electric line runs when the component is integrated into the electric machine and which includes a sharp-edged structure. A polymer layer adheres to the flat region without further aid such as to mask the sharp-edged structure and thereby protect from damage the electric line on the flat region. The polymer layer is made of cured plastic adhesive and jetted onto the flat region in the form of threads, such that the threads are spin-coated on top of one another in the form of overlapping loops and form a network structure which spans the sharp-edged structure.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2020Date of Patent: August 27, 2024Assignee: Innomotics GmbHInventors: Klaus Büttner, Tobias Katzenberger, Klaus Kirchner, Bastian Plochmann, Matthias Warmuth

Patent number: 11522424Abstract: A stator of an electric machine includes a laminated core having slots for receiving windings of a multiphase winding system. The windings have winding ends, which are encased with an insulator across a partial length. In order to encase the winding ends with the insulator, a strand of a thermoplastic material is extruded onto the winding ends via a nozzle. During extrusion, the nozzle is moved relative to the winding end along the longitudinal extent thereof and an oscillating movement of the nozzle transversely to the longitudinal extent of the winding end overlays the movement along the longitudinal extent. As a result the thermoplastic material lies on the winding end and around the respective winding end in the form of loops.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2020Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFTInventors: Klaus Büttner, Tobias Katzenberger, Klaus Kirchner, Bastian Plochmann, Matthias Warmuth

Patent number: 10819198Abstract: In a method for producing a squirrel-cage rotor for an asynchronous machine, conductor rods made from a first conductive material are inserted in substantially axial grooves of a laminated rotor core in such a manner that the conductor rods protrude from an end face of the laminated rotor core. A short circuit ring disc made from a second conductive material and heated above the recrystallization temperature is axially pressed onto the protruding conductor rods on the end face of the laminated rotor core, taking into account a temperature range, a deformation, and the rate of deformation of the short circuit ring, with a permissible shear stress of the first and second conductive materials being locally exceeded and material transitions being caused by diffusion at an interface between the conductor rods and the short circuit ring, thereby resulting in microwelding. Subsequently or simultaneously the short circuit ring disc is hot shaped.Type: GrantFiled: April 16, 2018Date of Patent: October 27, 2020Assignee: SIEMENS AKTIENGESELLSCHAFTInventors: Klaus Büttner, Klaus Kirchner, Matthias Warmuth
