A rotor assembly with a cooling mechanism having first and second channels is provided. The rotor assembly includes a shaft having a hollow portion and a rotor core having at least one rotor stack positioned at least partially around the shaft. The rotor core has a first end and a second end. The rotor stack forms an interior cavity which is only partially filled with a permanent magnet so as to define a gap in the rotor stack. The first channel is configured to direct fluid flow in a generally radial direction from the hollow portion of the shaft. The second channel is at least partially defined by the gap in the interior cavity of the rotor stack and is configured to direct the fluid flow from the first channel to at least one of the first and second ends of the rotor core.

An insulator assembly for a stator assembly of an electric machine includes an annular ring attached to a stator core, and a plurality of coil separators supported by the annular ring and extending from the annular ring axially along a longitudinal axis. One of the coil separators is disposed between each adjacent pair of the coils to prevent contact between adjacent coils having a different electrical phase. The coil separators are slideably inserted between the adjacent pairs of coils, with the annular ring positioning and supporting the coil separators.

A rotor defines an axial direction and a radial direction relative to an axis of rotation and includes an annular hub and a core disposed radially outward of the annular hub. The core defines a first axial side and a second axial side. First radial feed holes are formed in the annular hub, and are located between the first and second axial sides. Axial channels are formed between the core and the annular hub, and are in fluid communication with the first radial feed holes and span substantially between the first and second axial sides. The rotor also includes a first member and a second member, adjacent to the first and second axial sides, respectively. First and second apertures are formed in the first and second members, respectively. Each of the first and second apertures is in fluid communication with one of the axial channels.

A housing surrounding a stator or a rotor includes an annular cooling chamber, which is formed within the housing and defines a circumferential fluid path around the stator or rotor. A fluid inlet and a fluid outlet are communication with the annular cooling chamber. A primary divider separates the fluid inlet from the fluid outlet.

A bar wound stator assembly includes a connection module attached to a stator core at a weld end of the stator assembly. The connection module provides all required electrical connections to connect shaped plurality of hairpin bar connectors of the stator assembly within a first pole pair of a winding set of conductors. All of the hairpin bar conductors include an identical span. The connection module completes each phase of the winding set, to connect each phase of the winding set to define a connection configuration, e.g., a wye or a delta connection configuration, and to connect the stator assembly to all external connections.

A method of manufacturing a stator core is disclosed. The method includes advancing a blank at each of a plurality of press cycles to form a segment at each of the press cycles and shaping the segments. Shaping the segments further includes activating a tooth punch, activating a mounting-ear punch, and activating an joint punch. The method also includes separating the segments from the blank.

An apparatus includes structure defining a first hole that is characterized by an opening. A protuberance surrounds the opening and at least partially defines a concavity. A retention member is disposed within the concavity, and defines a second hole. The second hole has a first portion characterized by a first diameter and a second portion characterized by a second diameter. A threaded fastener has a flange characterized by a third diameter greater than the first diameter and less than the second diameter. The flange is disposed within the second portion of the second hole and between the first portion of the retention member hole and the first surface. Accordingly, the retention member retains the fastener in the concavity while permitting radial movement of the fastener.

Systems and methods are provided for a motor having a concentrated winding construction with reduced torque ripple. A motor comprises a stator including a plurality of tooth segments disposed circumferentially to establish a hollow core and a rotor rotatably disposed inside the hollow core. The plurality of tooth segments define a plurality of slot openings associated with a plurality of slots. Each slot of the plurality of slots has a slot opening and at least one slot opening of the plurality of slot openings is asymmetric with respect to the plurality of slot openings.
