Magnetic levitation bearing structure includes a cylinder body, a rotating shaft, a motor stator, a motor rotor, an axial bearing, a radial bearing and a displacement sensing device; the displacement sensing device, the axial bearing stator, and the radial bearing stator are directly fixed on an inner wall of the cylinder body.

A fluid compressor device includes an integrated controller of an e-machine. The integrated controller has an arcuate support structure that extends about the axis of rotation of a rotating group. The support structure has a seat that is disposed at a radial area of the arcuate support structure. The integrated controller has an electronics component supported on the seat. The integrated controller includes a retainer clip that is resiliently flexible between a neutral position and a flexed position. The retainer clip is fixed to the support structure and in the flexed position to retain the electronics component on the seat.

A centrifugal compressor assembly is provided. The centrifugal compressor assembly includes a scroll assembly having a suction plate defining an inlet fluid passage, a suction plate housing, a diffuser plate, and a collector. The suction plate is detachably coupled to the suction plate housing, the suction plate housing is detachably coupled to the collector, and the diffuser plate is detachably coupled to the collector. The centrifugal compressor assembly further includes an impeller rotatably mounted in the scroll assembly for compressing fluid introduced through the inlet fluid passage, and a variable geometry diffuser system.

A method of positioning exits of diffuser pipes of a centrifugal compressor in an aircraft engine includes aligning an alignment tool with a structure supporting the diffuser pipes, and rotating each diffuser pipe about an inlet axis thereof to close a gap between a surface of the diffuser pipe and part of the alignment tool until the diffuser pipe abuts the part of the alignment tool. The alignment tool includes for example a body defining a center axis and having at least one tool datum configured for abutting against the casing, and a plurality of alignment members that are fixed to the body and extend radially from the body relative to the center axis.

A fan motor for a vacuum cleaner includes a motor mount defining a cooling flow path inlet, an impeller, an impeller cover defining an air inlet, an air discharge opening defined at the motor mount and configured to discharge air to an outer space of the motor mount, and a cooling flow path outlet defined vertically above the motor mount. The cooling flow path inlet is configured to introduce air from the outer space of the motor mount into an inner space of the motor mount to cool the motor part, and the cooling flow path outlet is configured to discharge air from the inner space of the motor mount toward a space that is defined between the impeller and the air discharge opening based on the space between the impeller and the air discharge opening having a lower pressure than the inner space of the motor mount.

A rotary machine includes a rotating shaft, a compressor impeller, a compressor housing, a diffuser plate and an impeller installation portion. The diffuser plate is fixed to the compressor housing and forms a diffuser flow path. The impeller installation portion faces the compressor impeller and is located between the rotating shaft and the diffuser plate. The diffuser plate is located around an outer circumference of the impeller installing portion and is attached to the impeller installation portion.

A blower includes: a fan; a lower body having an inner space to receive the fan, and a suction hole; a first upper body communicating with the inner space and having a surface with a first discharge hole; a first damper movably coupled to the first upper body and penetrating the surface; the first damper having a first end facing an outside of the first upper body and a second end opposite to the first end; and a first bar extending along and coupled to the second end of the first damper.

A method for servicing a blower motor installed in a heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) assembly for a motor vehicle may include rotating a scroll housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly from an installed position to an extraction position. The method may include detaching a first securing element, the first securing element being distributed on the scroll housing subassembly and an evaporator housing subassembly of the HVAC assembly. The method may include removing the scroll housing subassembly from the HVAC assembly in a direction of extraction. The method may include that the scroll housing subassembly reaches the extraction position by axial rotation in a direction orthogonal to the direction of extraction. The method may include that the extraction position is a position at which the scroll housing subassembly is cleared for moving in the direction of extraction.

A compressor for a turbocharger includes an inlet-adjustment mechanism in an air inlet for the compressor, operable to move between an open position and a closed position in the air inlet. The compressor housing upstream of the inlet-adjustment mechanism defines a series of acoustic cavities, and openings are defined in the compressor housing wall leading into the acoustic cavities. The openings and cavities are aimed at mitigating noise and flow pulsation in the air inlet caused when the inlet-adjustment mechanism is adjusted to the closed position to effectively reduce the inlet diameter approaching the compressor wheel.

A centrifugal compressor includes a tubular shape casing extending in an axial direction, a motor stator fixed to an inside of the casing in a radial direction, a shaft disposed inside of the motor stator in the radial direction and extending in the axial direction, a motor rotor fixed to the shaft and facing the motor stator with a gap in the radial direction, a compression unit fixed to an end portion of the shaft on one side in the axial direction, a first thrust magnetic bearing disposed between the motor rotor and the impeller in the axial direction, and a second thrust magnetic bearing disposed on an other side in the axial direction relative to the motor rotor. A magnetic attraction force of the second thrust magnetic bearing toward the other side is larger than a magnetic attraction force of the first thrust magnetic bearing toward the one side.
