A method for repairing solder joint leakages on a connection unit designed to feed cooling water into hollow metallic stator bars of a stator winding of an electrical machine. A welding or soldering apparatus is designed for carrying out the method.

A linear generator includes one or more helices, and one or more magnet members movable relative to a first helix to generate electric energy within the first helix. The first helix includes a first coil. The first helix and/or the magnet members have a density less than that of water such that the first helix and/or the magnet members have buoyant properties when the linear generator is at least partially submerged in the water.

A water chamber cover for connecting a water hose to a water chamber bottom plate of a directly water-cooled stator bar, having a peripheral groove, which is open on a side facing away from the water chamber and which is designed to hold the water hose. A method is for assembling a cooling water circuit for a directly water-cooled stator bar.

A core used in an axial-gap rotating electric device includes an annular back yoke and a plurality of teeth protruding in an axial direction that is perpendicular to a first flat surface of the back yoke. The plurality of teeth are provided on the first flat surface at intervals in a circumferential direction. The back yoke and the teeth are constituted of an integrally-molded powder compact. A first curved section that connects a peripheral surface of each tooth and the first flat surface of the back yoke is provided at a corner between the tooth and the back yoke. The first curved section has a curvature radius ranging between 0.2 mm and 1.5 mm inclusive.
