11296580 · 2022-04-05 · ·

The present invention relates to an arrangement for cooling of an electrical machine. The electrical machine comprises a rotor rotatably arranged around a rotation axis, a stator including a stator winding arranged radially outside of the rotor, a housing enclosing the rotor and the stator, at least one drain hole configured to drain a cooling fluid from the housing, at least one spraying device configured to spray cooling fluid on the stator winding and a pump configured to pump cooling fluid to the spraying device. The arrangement comprises a control unit, which is configured, when the electrical machine is in operation, to receive information of the temperature in at least one position of the stator winding and to control the pump such that it pumps a flow rate of the cooling fluid to the spraying device, which is related to the estimated temperature of the stator winding.

Sensor magnet of motor having a fixing portion to press-fit to a shaft without a sensor magnet holder

An annular sensor magnet to be fixed to a motor shaft by a press-fit includes an annular portion having magnetic poles alternately formed in an outer peripheral portion. The annular sensor magnet also includes a fixing portion extending from an inner peripheral portion of the annular portion toward a center to support and fix the motor shaft having been press-fit, and a stress reducing portion for reducing stress caused in a contact portion of the fixing portion that contacts the motor shaft when the motor shaft is press-fit onto the fixing portion. The sensor magnet includes a bonded magnet in which a magnetic material is dispersed in a plastic material.

Enclosed Torque Controlled Electric Actuator and Method

The present disclosure provides an actuator and related method of use that can change and control positions of chokes, valves, and other rotational equipment in response to changes in either pressure, torque, or a combination thereof. The actuator with associated integrated components including a servo motor, motor controller, torque sensor assembly, encoder, holding brake, and onboard controls can be encased in a sealed explosion proof rated enclosure for deployment on a drilling rig or other explosive environments with a small footprint suitable for space limited locations. Pressure applied over a known area, such as a choke plug, is converted to torque and can be repeated regardless of flow rate, temperature, fluid type, or density. The torque sensing ability advantageously can quickly respond to fluid changes and make large steps to different set points with accuracy. The onboard controls can control the actuator autonomously without constant communication with a remote controller.
