  • Patent number: 7895729
    Abstract: A process for mounting magnets in an electric motor rotor and an electric motor rotor, said rotor comprising: a lamination stack (10) provided with a plurality of axial channels (12) disposed around a central axial bore (11) and housing permanent magnets (20); and a rotor cage (30) formed by a pair of end rings (31), each seated against an adjacent end lamination of the lamination stack (10) and interconnected by a plurality of bars (32), said process comprising the steps of: forming an end, ring (31) with at least one inner radial projection (33) disposed radially external to the projection of the contour of an axial channel (12); mounting in each axial channel (12) at least one permanent magnet (20); and deforming each inner radial projection (33) in order to increase its radial extension the sufficient to radially cover at least part of the projection of the contour of said axial channel (12), defining a stop for axially retaining the respective permanent magnet (20).

  • Publication number: 20060013907
    Abstract: A centrifugation injection mold comprising: a lower mold portion (10) having a basic block (11) inferiorly and rotatively mounted to bearing means (30) that are affixed to a machine structure (E), a plurality of axial columns (13) peripherally and superiorly affixed to the basic block (11), and a moveable block (12) defining a lower mold cavity (12a) and being slidingly mounted to the axial columns (13), in order to be axially displaced between an open mold position and a closed mold position; an impelling means (60) operatively associated with the machine structure (E) and with the moveable block (12) for displacing displace the moveable block (12) to the open mold position against the action of an elastic means (50); a locking means (15) mounted to each axial column (13); and an upper mold portion (20) to be removably seated on the axial columns (13) and affixed thereto by the locking means (15) in a closed mold position.
