摘要： An electric motor comprises a rotor hub defining a first slot and a rotor stack defining a second slot. A rotor key has a shape corresponding to the cross-sectional shape of the first slot such that the rotor key is removably retained within the first slot. The rotor key is inserted into the first slot on the rotor hub and the second slot on the rotor stack.

摘要： An input shaft for a hybrid transmission includes a cylindrical hollow shaft portion having internal and external surfaces. The internal surface defines an internal cavity coaxial with the hollow shaft portion and has a splined portion configured to allow power to be transferred to the hollow shaft portion. The input shaft may further include a freeze plug press-fit in the internal cavity, configured to fluidly seal the inner cavity in embodiments with a cavity extending throughout the input shaft. The splined portion may be a broached spline. A method of manufacturing a hybrid powertrain includes forming a hollow transmission input shaft and press-fitting a plug into it, such that the shaft is internally fluid sealed. The shaft is mated to the transmission which may then be filled with fluid and tested for operability. The shaft may be dry-mated to an engine output member for common rotation therewith.

摘要： A transmission having an electric motor/generator includes a transmission housing and a bearing support rigidly connected to the transmission housing and substantially enclosed by the transmission housing. A stator housing is substantially enclosed by the transmission housing, and is rigidly joined to the bearing support by a plurality of rivets, such that torque may be transferred between the stator housing and bearing support. The stator housing may be formed from a first material, and the bearing support may be formed from a second material, different from the first material. The stator housing and bearing support meet at an interface region, which may be characterized by an absence of a welded connection between the stator housing and the bearing support. The interface region may be characterized as a slip fit, such that the stator housing and bearing support are matable by hand.

摘要： A structural arrangement for detecting improper positioning between a hub. The structural arrangements utilize a bore which axially penetrates a stepped-down end portion of the shaft to receive a fastening means by which the hub may be secured to the shaft. A blocking bore extends radially through the stepped-down end portion of the shaft to communicate between the bore and the exterior of the shaft. A blocking member is received within the blocking bore and is movable radially therealong. A cam flange extends radially inwardly from the hub member and presents a blocking surface and a releasing surface on the radially inner extent thereof. The blocking surface is disposed in radial opposition to the blocking bore when the hub member is improperly positioned with respect to the shaft and the releasing surface is disposed in radial opposition to the blocking bore when the hub member is properly disposed with respect to the shaft. The blocking member has a radial dimension such that the blocking member will be forced to extend within the axially oriented bore so long as the hub member is improperly positioned with respect to the shaft in order to preclude the fastening means from being secured within the bore and yet the blocking member will retract to clear the bore when the releasing surface is radially opposed to the blocking bore, as occurs when the hub is properly disposed on the shaft in order to permit the fastening means to enter the bore.
