  • Patent number: 7241052
    Abstract: The invention relates to a monitored roller bearing device, comprising a non-rotating race (10), a rotating race (12), at least one row of rolling elements (14) arranged between two rolling tracks (11, 13) on the rotating race (12) and non-rotating race (10) and an information detection module, which comprises a non-rotating sensor unit (29) and a rotating (12) encoder (28). Said device comprises a means for fixing the sensor unit (29) relative to a support (3), by generating an axial force between a support surface (34b) on the sensor unit (29) and a support surface (7) on the support (3), while permitting an axial displacement of the sensor unit (29) relative to the support (3).

  • Patent number: 5714824
    Abstract: The conductor section is for a stator frame of a polyphase dynamoelectric machine. The stator frame is provided with a series of elongated parallel slots for receiving respectively conductor sections. The conductor section comprises two parallel conductor sides of substantially rectangular cross section adapted to fit respectively into two corresponding parallel slots of the stator frame, the two sides defining a plane; and at least one conductor head of substantially rectangular cross section, connecting two adjacent ends of the parallel sides. The head shows a substantially U-shaped body when seen from a top view perpendicular to the plane, and a waved-shape body when seen from a front view contained in the plane. The head having top and bottom surfaces facing only one side of the plane from one end of the head to the other end thereof. Methods for mounting conductor sections of stator winding onto a circular shaped stator frame are also described.

  • Patent number: 5619787
    Abstract: A method for mounting conductor sections of a stator winding onto a circular shaped stator frame of a dynamoelectric machine. Each conductor section has two parallel conductor sides and at least one conductor head connecting two adjacent ends of the parallel sides. The stator frame is provided with circumferentially distributed parallel slots. One conductor side of each conductor section is inserted at least partially into a corresponding slot of the parallel slots. The other conductor side of each conductor section is positioned, one beside the other, along the stator frame. The other conductor sides are then circumferentially shifted with respect to the stator frame until the other conductor sides are superimposed respectively above the one conductor side for forming pairs of superimposed conductor sides.
