  • Patent number: 10903717
    Abstract: A repaired rotor of a multi-phase electric motor includes a plurality of annular laminations stacked to form a cylindrical core about a central axis, each of the laminations having notches aligned to form axially extending slots about a periphery of the core; a plurality of electrical conductors extending through the slots; a pair of conductive end rings, each attached to a different end of the cylindrical core and electrically connected to the plurality of electrical conductors; and an outer end ring abutting and electrically connected to one of the pair of conductive end rings and electrically connected to adjacent ends of the plurality of electrical conductors, the outer end ring providing an uninterrupted electrically conductive path connecting the plurality of electrical conductors.
