  • Publication number: 20240146141
    Abstract: An electric motor as well as a manufacturing method for the electric motor and a manufacturing tool are provided, the electric motor being for a deep well vertical turbine pump and having a stator assembly that has a stator bore to hold a rotor and slots that are radially open to the inside, respectively separated from each other by a stator tooth, and in which electrical conductors made of round wire of coils of a coil assembly lie, with the distributed windings on one axial end of the coil assembly forming a winding head in which the coils are encapsulated. The winding head only extends between an inner diameter and an outer diameter which is smaller than the diameter of the stator bore in which the coil assembly is inserted axially into the slots of the stator assembly.

  • Publication number: 20240146158
    Abstract: Provided are a method and a tool for manufacturing a coil assembly of an electric motor for a deep well vertical turbine pump with a stator assembly that has a stator bore to receive a rotor and slots radially open to the inside which are respectively separated from each other by a stator tooth and in which electrical conductors of coils of the coil assembly lie, forming distributed windings and, at one axial end of the coil assembly, a winding head. The coil assembly is manufactured by shaping and encapsulating the coils within the tool so that the winding head extends only between an inner diameter and an outer diameter that is smaller than the diameter of the stator bore in order to enable axial insertion of the coil assembly into the stator assembly leading with the winding head in which the coils are respectively wound individually, drawn into the tool as wire bundles and encapsulated within it.

  • Publication number: 20230190221
    Abstract: A universal phantom includes a first phantom and a second phantom. The first phantom comprises a plurality of radiation markers. The second phantom comprises a plurality of optical markers. The second phantom is fixedly attachable to the first phantom in a predetermined position.

  • Patent number: 10646730
    Abstract: Collision free regions are predetermined for one or more class solutions. Each class solution has defined limits for allowed field geometry variations. Collision free regions in planning can be defined as a set of allowed isocenter positions relative to a fixation device. The collision free regions may be visualized by a user to plan for field geometry and isocenter position tradeoffs. Collision free regions in delivery can be defined as a set of allowed couch support coordinates. The treatment fields in a radiation treatment plan can be checked against the collision free regions in delivery to determine whether they will pose any collision risks.

  • Patent number: 10571681
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) and more particularly to membrane structures comprising pixels for use in, e.g., display devices. In embodiments, a membrane structure comprises a monocrystalline silicon membrane above a cavity formed over a silicon substrate. The membrane structure can comprise a light interference structure that, depending upon a variable distance between the membrane and the substrate, transmits or reflects different wavelengths of light. Related devices, systems and methods are also disclosed.
