A combined power system includes a rotary electric machine housing in which a rotating shaft of a rotary electric machine is rotatably supported. For the rotary electric machine housing, a cooling jacket and compressed air flow passages are formed on an outer circumferential side of the cooling jacket. On an outer side wall of the rotary electric machine housing, a terminal casing is formed and electric terminal portions are accommodated in the terminal casing. Compressed air is supplied to the terminal casing. An electrical current converter formed on the outer side wall of the rotary electric machine housing is cooled by the cooling jacket.

The invention is a motor/generator that includes a motor/generator housing that encloses a rotor assembly, which rotates a shaft, and a stator assembly that remains stationary, and where the motor/generator is inside a vacuum chamber, which, during normal operation, is evacuated of gas and operates at a lower air pressure than atomospheric air pressure, and a cylindrical vacuum barrier between the rotor assembly and the stator assembly that together with the motor generator housing partitions the motor/generator into an interior rotor volume and an exterior stator volume, enabling the rotor volume and stator volume to operate at different atmospheric pressures.

An electric assembly includes. a box assembly, a motor, and a transmission. An mounting plate is disposed in the box assembly, and the mounting plate divides a space within the box assembly into a motor holding cavity and a transmission holding cavity. The motor is disposed in the motor holding cavity. The transmission is disposed in the transmission holding cavity, and the motor is power-coupled to the transmission such that the motor and the transmission are directly integrated through the box assembly without external connection of the motor and the transmission. The mounting plate is a monolithically integral part of the box assembly.

An electric machine for a vehicle, in particular for a utility vehicle, includes a rotor mounted rotatably on a shaft and a stator surrounding the rotor, at least one device of the electric machine located in at least one pressure chamber which is subjected at least intermittently to an overpressure which is elevated with respect to the ambient pressure. The over pressure in at least one pressure chamber protects against ingress of water.

A stator for a motor of a compressor includes a stator core, insulator, coil, slot insulator, and inter-coil insulator. The stator core has a plurality of tooth portions arrayed circumferentially. The insulator is fitted to axial end faces of the stator core. The coil is wound on the tooth portions. The slot insulator is placed within slot portions that are spaces between circumferentially neighboring ones of the tooth portions, and which are interposed between the stator core and the coil. The inter-coil insulator is placed between circumferentially mutually neighboring windings of the coil. The inter-coil insulator is sheet shaped and folded over a width equal to double a sheet thickness at a folding-bottom portion extending along an axial direction. The folding-bottom portion is positioned on a distal end side of the tooth portions. Movement of the folding-bottom portion in a radial direction toward the rotor is restricted.
