Mutually facing longitudinal ends of the closure walls of the same pair of covering slides overlap in the assembled state in such a way that the closure walls of the same pair of covering slides overlap only in sections. | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036572 | GENERATOR MAIN FIELD CONNECTION - A main field connection to connect to a main field winding has a semi-cylindrical portion with an axially thicker outer surface, an axially thinner inner surface, with an aperture. An extending portion extends from the semi-cylindrical portion to a remote extending end. The remote extending end extends for a first axial distance. The axially thicker portion of the semi-cylindrical portion extends for a second axial distance. A ratio of the first axial distance to the second axial distance is between 0.65 and 1.4. A rotating assembly, a generator and a method are also disclosed. | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036573 | Electric Compressor - An electric compressor is provided in which the connection strength between lead terminals from a motor and an inverter circuit section is improved. The electric compressor | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036574 | ELECTRIC DRIVE DEVICE AND ELECTRIC POWER STEERING DEVICE - An electric drive device includes a housing with a motor-housing-side annular groove portion formed on an outer peripheral surface of an end surface portion of the housing, on an opposite side to an output portion of a rotation shaft of an electric motor section. The groove portion is formed by an annular groove retreating inward in the radial direction orthogonal to the axial line of the housing. A metal-cover-side distal end portion is formed at the opening end of a metal cover covering an electronic control unit that controls the electric motor section, and faces the groove from the outer side. A space between the groove portion and the distal end portion is filled with a liquid sealant, and an annular inclined surface is inclined so it is widened outward in the radial direction of the metal cover is formed on the inner peripheral surface of the groove portion. | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036575 | SEALING STRUCTURE OF ELECTRIC-MACHINE-SHAFT EXTENSION END - The present disclosure relates to the field of shaft sealing, and particularly relates to a sealing structure of an electric-machine-shaft extension end. The sealing structure of an electric-machine-shaft extension end includes an electric-machine end cap and an electric-machine-shaft extension end, the electric-machine-shaft extension end is mounted to the electric-machine end cap via a bearing, a double-oil-seal structure is provided between the electric-machine end cap and the electric-machine-shaft extension end, the double-oil-seal structure includes an oil-seal seat that is connected to the electric-machine end cap and an outer-side oil seal and an inner-side oil seal that are provided inside the oil-seal seat, the outer-side oil seal and the inner-side oil seal are provided face to face, and are interference-fitted to the oil-seal seat, and an oil storing chamber and an oil-seal spacer ring contained inside the oil storing chamber are provided between the outer-side oil seal and the inner-side oil seal. | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036576 | AN ELECTRIC MACHINE - An electric machine comprises a housing ( | 2021-02-04 |
| 20210036577 | ELECTRIC MOTOR - An electric motor includes a stator and a rotor that is surrounded by the stator and rotates on a shaft. The electric motor includes a detector that detects a rotational position of the shaft and outputs an electrical signal indicative of a detection result, a detector cover housing the detector, a power line that is provided in the electric motor to transmit electric power that drives rotation of the rotor, a signal line that allows in the detector cover propagation of the electrical signal output from the detector, and a connector that is provided to the detector cover and is fitted with an end of the power line and an end of the signal line. | 2021-02-04 |
