Resistance module for increasing runup torque for a rotor of an electric machine comprising a rotor winding
A resistance module for increasing a runup torque for a rotor of an electric machine with a rotor winding includes first and second connection points, a plurality of electrically-conductive layers electrically connected to the first and second connection points. Each of the layers surrounds an axis of the resistance module at least partially in a circumferential direction and has a layer start point and a layer end point. At least one of the layers is configured in an undulating shape in the circumferential direction, with undulations projecting radially outwards. A first insulating layer is disposed between neighboring ones of the layers. The layer end point of one of the layers is electrically connected at a tie point to the layer start point of a neighboring one of the layers. At least one fastening element is disposed between two neighboring undulations in the circumferential direction and radially outside of the layers.

The present disclosure relates to systems, apparatuses, and methods for assembling cartridges for aerosol delivery devices. The cartridges may be assembled by transporting carriages between various substations at which parts are added to a base. In another assembly method, the base may be moved between a plurality of robots which direct the base downwardly into contact with components to couple the components therewith. An inspection system may inspect the cartridges at various stages of completion.
