The electric motor assembly also includes a housing having an inner surface enclosing at least a portion of the stator, and at least one fluid passage between the outer surface of the stator core and the inner surface of the housing. The fluid passage permits a coolant in the fluid passage to contact one or more portions of the outer surface of the stator core to remove heat from the stator core during operation of the electric motor assembly. Additional motor assemblies including stator and/or rotor cooling features are disclosed. | 12-22-2011 |

20150229187 | INTERNAL ROTOR SENSOR HAVING ADJUSTABLE SENSOR CARRIER - An electric motor is provided. A rotor sensor mechanism is operable to sense a condition of the rotor. The rotor sensor mechanism includes a target component, a radial sensor, and a sensor carrier. The target component comprises a shutter wheel fixed relative to the rotor for rotational movement therewith. The shutter wheel includes a plurality of circumferentially spaced, radially projecting radial target teeth. The radial sensor is configured to sense the target teeth. The radial sensor is at least generally axially aligned with the radial target teeth and faces radially toward the radial target teeth. The sensor carrier adjustably supports the radial sensor on the motor frame assembly so as to permit the radial sensor to be selectively positioned relative to the radial target teeth. | 08-13-2015 |

20140239862 | CONTROL OF A BRUSHLESS ELECTRICAL MACHINE - A brushless electrical machine has at least one phase winding which produces torque to drive a load. The control system for the machine is able to vary the flux and current supplied to a phase so as to vary the torque output as a function of the rotor position. The energisation is reduced at particular angles to produce a dip in the torque profile, thus ensuring that, if the drive stalls, it does so at a predetermined position, for example where the losses in the drive are minimised. | 08-28-2014 |
20150035390 | ROTOR FOR AN ELECTRICAL MACHINE - A rotating electrical machine has a rotor composed of laminations which are mounted on a shaft in an embodiment. The portion of the laminations adjacent the shaft has one or more slots, so designed as to increase the contact force between the lamination and the shaft as the speed of the rotor rises. This allows the laminations to be assembled to the shaft with a smaller interference fit yet retain a contact force at high speeds. The laminations may be assembled to the shaft with a suitable adhesive. | 02-05-2015 |

20080197793 | Control of an electrical machine - A switched reluctance machine has salient poles on the stator and rotor. The windings of the machine are supplied from a converter which provides energisation at a chosen rate. The windings of the machine may be energised at the rate at which the rotor poles pass the stator poles, or it may be operated at a fraction of that rate by energising the windings to cooperate with every second, third or fourth rotor pole. This can extend the output of the machine. | 08-21-2008 |

20150264982 | Bra with Two Layers of Support - A front-close bra comprises a fabric back panel. A left inner bra cup and a right inner bra cup are coupled to the back panel. A left outer front panel is coupled to the left side of the back panel and is configured to cover the left inner bra cup. A right outer front panel is coupled to the right side of the back panel and is configured to cover the right inner bra cup. An inner closure couples a right side of the left inner bra cup to a left side of the right inner bra cup. An outer closure couples one of a right side of the left outer front panel and a left side of the right outer front panel to another area of the bra so as to hold the respective outer front panel in place over the respective inner bra cup that it covers. | 09-24-2015 |

20140195240 | VISUAL CONTENT FEED PRESENTATION - A method, system, and computer program product for a visual content feed presentation. The method includes receiving different streams of content from different sources of the streams, characterizing the content in each of the different streams, and determining based upon the characterization of the content of each of the streams, a visual arrangement of the content for presentation in a graphical user interface (GUI). The method further includes presenting the content in the determined visual arrangement in the GUI and text to speech (TTS) converting content in one of the streams and playing back the TTS converted content in synchronization with a display of an avatar in the GUI. | 07-10-2014 |
