An electric-motor radiator fan of a motor vehicle has a fan shroud with a motor holder. An electric motor is inserted in the motor holder. A heat shield plate is arranged on the end side of the electric motor. The heat shield plate is placed onto a projection of the motor holder by way of a cut-out, and the heat shield plate is pivoted around the projection, which forms an axis of rotation, in such a way that the heat shield plate is forced at least in sections into at least one holding contour of the motor holder in a positive locking and/or friction-locking manner.

It is intended to provide a motor having a sufficient heat dissipation function even when a non-magnetic material having low thermal conductivity is used for a shaft of a motor using a consequent pole rotor. A motor 1 includes: a stator; a consequent pole rotor including a rotor core and a magnet; a casing housing the stator and the rotor; a shaft 8 including a non-magnetic material and fixed to the rotor; and heat dissipation blades 24 that are a first heat dissipation promoting means that rotates with the shaft 8. This promotes heat dissipation through a heat dissipation path from an inside of the motor 1 through the shaft 8, preventing problems due to overheat in the motor 1.

A turbomachinery stator apparatus includes: a compressor casing including a casing wall defining an arcuate flowpath surface and an opposed backside surface, the flowpath surface defining at least two spaced-apart rotor lands; and a stator vane row of stator vanes disposed inside the compressor casing; wherein the casing wall includes at least one hollow structure; and wherein the casing wall is a single monolithic whole, wherein the stator vanes are integrally formed as part of the monolithic whole.

A rotary assembly is provided that may be operably connected to an engine. The rotary assembly may include a rotary device comprising a turbine wheel, a shaft connected to the turbine wheel, and a case that houses the shaft and the turbine wheel. The turbine wheel may receive exhaust gas from the engine which causes rotation of the turbine wheel and the shaft. The case may include an interior surface that defines a hollow volume in which the turbine wheel and the shaft are located. The case has a radial thickness extending from the interior surface to an exterior surface of the case. The case may include a lattice structure integrated within the radial thickness of the case. The lattice structure may include a repeating three-dimensional array of frame segments connected to one another at junctions and defining interstitial spaces between the frame segments.

A vacuum pump comprises: a rotor cylindrical portion; a motor configured to rotate the rotor cylindrical portion; a stator cylindrical portion, the rotor cylindrical portion and the stator cylindrical portion together forming a screw groove pump; a base housing the rotor cylindrical portion and the stator cylindrical portion; a heater configured to heat the base or the stator cylindrical portion; a cooling device attached to the base; and a cover member arranged at an outer peripheral side of the stator cylindrical portion and an outer peripheral side of the base, covering the base through an air insulating layer, and contacting the cooling device.

A rotor blade retention system for a gas turbine engine includes a rotor blade connection component defining a slot, with the rotor blade connection component including a first set of electric leads. Furthermore, the rotor blade retention system includes a rotor blade having a root section received within the slot, with the rotor blade further including a second set of electric leads. In this respect, the first and second sets of electric leads are electrically coupled together to permit electric current to be supplied to the rotor blade.

Provided is a combustible gas compressor for compressing combustible gas. The combustible gas compressor comprising: a compressor housing having an impeller rotatably disposed therein; a motor housing having a motor for driving the impeller therein; and a bearing rotatably supporting a rotational shaft transmitting rotation driving force of the motor to the impeller, wherein the compressor housing is integrally formed with the motor housing, the bearing is a self-lubricating type bearing not using lubricant oil, the self-lubricating type bearing being configured to lift the rotational shaft using gas.

A compressor wheel includes a compressor wheel body, and a thermal insulating coating layer disposed so as to cover at least a part of a back surface of the compressor wheel body.

An electric compressor includes a casing which accommodates an inverter and includes a bottom plate on which a power board of the inverter is mounted and a cooling water passage which is provided in a housing and opens to a bottom plate of the casing. The bottom plate of the casing includes a first surface on which a power board is mounted and a second surface opposite to the first surface.
