    Abstract: An electric machine rotor assembly includes a rotor core defining a rotor axis. Windings are seated in the rotor core. A plurality of wedges circumferentially spaced apart around the rotor core relative to the rotor axis. Each rotor core extends axially and separates between two respective portions of the windings. A supply end plate is mounted at a first axial end of the rotor core. A return end plate is mounted at a second axial end of the rotor core opposite the first axial end. A flow path for coolant fluid extends through the supply end plate into the wedges, through the wedges and into the return end plate, and through the return end plate.

    Abstract: A flyweight system includes a base defining a through-bore for connection to a flyweight governor. The base defines a track therein. A magnet is seated in the track of the base. A tab is mounted to the base, sandwiching the magnet between the base and the tab to retain the magnet in the track.

    Abstract: A valve assembly for a variable frequency generator includes an input shaft extending about a longitudinal axis and having a bore defined therein. Also included is a disconnect shaft extending about the longitudinal axis and disposed in abutment with the input shaft. Further included is an oil restrictor disposed with the bore of the input shaft. Yet further included is a vent valve disposed within the bore and in abutment with the oil restrictor, the vent valve comprising an angled wall, the angled wall partially defining an annulus. Also included is a plurality of ball bearings disposed within the annulus, the plurality of ball bearings sliding radially outwardly away from the longitudinal axis during rotational operation of the input shaft to apply a force on the angled wall of the vent valve to bias the vent valve axially into a sealed condition.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein relate to piece-part, sub-assembly, assembly, and component levels of a differential composed of a sun gear configuration and utilized in an integrated drive generator. An integrated drive generator is a hydro-mechanical transmission that drives a synchronous salient pole generator. The integrated drive generator is a constant speed output, variable speed input transmission that includes the differential and a hydraulic unit. In general, the integrated drive generator utilizes the variable speed input from an accessory gear box of an engine to drive or control a hydraulic unit, which in turn drives or controls a churn leg member of the differential. As the differential is driven, speeds of each speed member of the differential are then summed to generate the constant speed output to drive the synchronous salient pole generator.
