Abstract: An electrical rotary machine wherein a plurality of hollow tubular axial support beams are affixed to a stator of the rotary machine and the top surface of the beams supports the stator in a horizontally aligned operational position. The rotor of the machine is supported by solid transverse support walls that are positioned at opposite ends of the rotor, at right angles to the axial support beams and adjacent to their end surfaces. The support walls are affixed to the ends of the axial beams and adapted to support attached bearing housings. When the support walls are in position, the shaft of the rotor engages the bearings in the bearing housings and the rotor is thereby rotatably supported. Stability is enhanced by ensuring that the vertical distance between the lowest point of the stator and the top support surface of the beams is greater than one-half the vertical distance between the top support surface and the base surface upon which the rotary machine is supported.
