The circuit board substrate is then mounted within the housing for the integrated motor drive and, preferably, in a generally central orientation within the housing. A potting material is provided within the housing of the integrated motor drive and around the circuit board. The potting material substantially encloses the circuit board and fills the volume within the integrated motor drive. The potting material is selected to provide good thermal conductivity between the circuit board and the housing of the integrated motor drive. The potting material is also selected to provide flexibility such that expansion and contraction of the potting material due to heating and cooling of the material does not damage the circuit board or the electronic components mounted to the circuit board.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2021Date of Patent: July 15, 2025Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Zoran Vrankovic, Kristin N.

Patent number: 12355317Abstract: The present disclosure describes slot insulation systems for electrical rotating machines. For example, a system may include: a main insulation for a coil of the rotating machine or for an individual bar for the coil; a resin formulation serving as a slot adhesive forming a solid film. At room temperature and under standard conditions, the solid film is in an A-state. Heating the electrical rotating machine to a curing temperature for the resin formulation, the solid film firstly melts and flows within an occupied slot, then cures and solidifies to form a thermoset material.Type: GrantFiled: February 15, 2022Date of Patent: July 8, 2025Assignee: SIEMENS MOBILITY GMBHInventors: Florian Schemmel, Steffen Lang, Marek Maleika, Niels Müller
