Abstract:
A method of installing the terminal block assembly onto a generator includes the step of providing a terminal block with multiple terminal studs. Protrusions that are integral with the terminal block are aligned with corresponding bores in a generator housing. The terminal block is mounted on the generator housing with the protrusions received in the bores. A terminal lead assembly is inserted through the protrusion, and a terminal pad of the terminal lead assembly is arranged over the terminal stud. A terminal lug is fastened to the terminal stud. A terminal cover is secured to the terminal block over the terminal with a boss of the terminal block received in a corresponding recess of the terminal cover.

Abstract:
An electric machine rotor includes a rotor body configured to rotate about a rotation axis. A winding includes a plurality of end winding portions extending circumferentially over an axial end of the pole core. An anchor is woven into the end winding portions to inhibit movement of the end winding portions relative to the pole core. The anchor includes a first portion extending radially outward along a first row of the end winding portions. A second portion of the anchor extends axially from the first row, beyond a second row of the end winding portions to a third row of the end winding portions. A third portion of the anchor extends radially along the third row. A fourth portion extends axially between two of the end windings in the third row. A fifth portion of the anchor extends radially inward between the second row and the third row.
Abstract:
A shaft system includes an outer shaft including an outer surface and an inner surface defining a conduit and an inner shaft extending along at least a portion of the conduit. The inner shaft includes a radially extending passage. The inner shaft has a first end and a second end that is opposite the first end. An input member is arranged at the first end of the inner shaft. A thrust damper is arranged between the input member and the inner shaft. The thrust damper constrains relative rotation between the inner shaft and the outer shaft.
