20080218012 | Terminal board as well as an electrical machine - A terminal board, which is for a housing-less asynchronous motor, includes an electrically insulating base extending in a longitudinal direction and in a traverse direction. A device fastens the base to an electrical machine and another device enables a plurality of terminals to be inserted into the base. The base has a bearing surface that curves concavely in the transverse direction and that is essentially straight in the longitudinal direction. The terminal board can be attached to an asynchronous motor that has a cylindrical stator extending in the longitudinal direction. The motor also has a movably positioned rotor that is located inside of the stator and that is connected to the rotor. The terminal board is introduced in the longitudinal direction of the stator where a number of terminals are inserted. By using the terminal board, a housing-less electrically powered machine can be constructed as small as possible. | 09-11-2008 |
