A laminated core for a rotor and/or a stator of a rotating electric machine includes teeth arranged adjacent to one another in a peripheral direction of the laminated core and delimiting slots for accommodating an electrical conductor that forms a winding. A cover unit is arranged on a side of an air gap between the rotor and the stator and delimits the slots in the radial direction. The cover unit has in a region of a respective one of the slots at least two tapering regions which are spaced apart from one another in the peripheral direction of the laminated core, with a material of the cover unit being thinner in the tapering regions in a radial direction of the laminated core than in a region of the cover unit adjoining the tapering regions.

The invention relates to a squirrel-cage rotor (3) of an asynchronous machine (1) having electrical conductors, which are provided in substantially axially extending grooves of a laminated core (5). On each end face of the laminated core (5), at least one short-circuit ring is provided, which electrically connects at least a predetermined number of the electrical conductors, wherein the short-circuit ring has a reinforcement (24) made of comparatively high-strength material.

A rotor includes a rotor core having slots on an outer periphery to receive rotor bars, short-circuit rings bonded to ends of the rotor bars to electrically connect the rotor bars together, core retainers located across the rotor core in a direction along a rotating shaft, and a deformation prevention portion located between each short-circuit ring and the rotor core. The deformation prevention portion is fixed to the short-circuit ring and to at least a portion of at least one rotor bar to reduce bending deformation of the portion of the rotor bar in a direction tangent to an outer peripheral surface of a portion of the rotor core of the rotor bar.

A rotating electrical machine includes a rotor and a magnet unit. The rotating electrical machine also includes a cylindrical stator and a housing. The stator is equipped with a stator winding made up of a plurality of phase windings. The stator is arranged coaxially with the rotor and faces the rotor. The housing has the rotor and the stator disposed therein. The rotor includes a cylindrical magnet retainer to which the magnet unit is secured and an intermediate portion which connects between a rotating shaft of the rotor and the magnet retainer and extends in a radial direction of the rotating shaft. A first region located radially inside an inner peripheral surface of a magnetic circuit component made up of the stator and the rotor is greater in volume than a second region between the inner peripheral surface of the magnetic circuit component and the housing in the radial direction.

A rotor for an electric machine includes a laminated core and a groove which extend in axial direction from a first axial end to a second axial end along a rotation axis. The groove has a groove filling having a first material with a metal element of the periodic table. The groove filling has a cast metal region, which extends with an end region at the first axial end at least partially over the laminated core. The cast metal region extends through the groove from the first axial end to the second axial end, and fills up a first part of the groove with a first material. An insert fills up a second part of the groove with a second material which has the metal element of the periodic table. The insert part and the cast metal region are connected in a bonded manner by a connection zone.

A short-circuit ring for a squirrel cage of a dynamoelectric rotary machine includes at least one indentation and is connectable by means of the indentation to at least one cage bar which projects from a rotor lamination of the dynamoelectric rotary machine.

An electric motor and a compressor having an electric motor are disclosed herein. The electric motor may include a stator having a stator core and a stator coil, and a rotor provided with a rotational shaft and rotatably disposed with respect to the stator. The stator coil may include a main winding and an auxiliary winding connected to each other with a phase difference. The main winding may be divided into a plurality of main windings so as to be connected to each other and disconnected from each other, and the stator coil may further include a winding changeover switch configured to provide connection and disconnection between the plurality of main windings. Such a configuration may allow operating efficiency at a low load to be increased.

Provided is a rotor for an asynchronous electrical machine having an end shaft that includes two half-shafts pressing against a cylindrical magnetic block and two short-circuit discs each placed between one different half-shaft and one of the ends of the cylindrical magnetic block. Each half-shaft includes at least one first means of retention, and each short-circuit disc includes on each of its faces at least one second means of retention and each end of the magnetic block includes at least one third means of retention, the first, second, and third means of retention mating with one another in such a way as to prevent the short-circuit discs from moving relative to the half-shafts and relative to the magnetic block.

The rotor with a non-through shaft for a rotary electric machine comprises a cylindrical magnetic body clamped between two half-shafts, each comprising an attachment flange connected to the magnetic body, axial housings being uniformly provided in the magnetic body on at least one diameter of the magnetic body in order to house conductive bars. At least one attachment flange comprises insertion holes, each arranged facing a housing for inserting the conductive bars into the housings and the exterior diameter of the attachment flange is substantially equal to the exterior diameter of the magnetic body, the attachment flange comprising as many insertion holes as housings.
