An electric machine contains a rotor winding head and a device for monitoring same. The device contains a microwave radar system which has a transceiver unit, a sensor, and a cable. The sensor is lance-shaped, and the longitudinal axis of the sensor is arranged in the radial direction. The sensor extends between the stator winding elements, and the sensor contains a lance-shaped support, an antenna, and electric conductors. The support is made of non-magnetic and non-conductive materials, and the antenna is arranged on the sensitive end of the sensor and is connected to the support. The electric conductors connect the antenna to the cable and are connected to the support, and the sensor contains a voltage insulation which surrounds the support, the antenna, and the conductors.

A motor includes a shaft extending along a center axis, and a first groove that is recessed in a radial direction and extends in an axial direction, on an outer side surface of the shaft. The motor includes a stator core into which the shaft is inserted, and a rotation restrictor that is inserted into at least a portion of the first groove and restricts the stator core and the shaft in a circumferential direction. A carrier vehicle is equipped with the motor further including a lead wire extending from the stator. The shaft includes a shaft portion and a flange portion that overhangs to a radially outer side from one side of the shaft portion in the axial direction. The flange portion includes an opening through which the lead wire passes. The opening includes a notch connected to an outer side surface of the flange portion. The opening of the motor is positioned above the center axis.

A modular smart motor assembly comprising a controller and electric motor. The modular smart motor assembly is part of a smart motor system within a vehicle, and operable to adjust configurable elements of the interior of the vehicle. The controller may be detachably coupled to the electric motor, and may be utilized to retrofit existing electric motor systems.
