The present invention refers to a shaded-pole single-phase motor convertible into a permanent magnet motor of the type that comprises a front casing, a stator element, a rotor element, a plurality of windings placed over the protruding poles of the stator element, and a rear casing, wherein the stator element presents a square-shape configuration with the four protruding poles rotated 45? relative to the horizontal and vertical symmetry axes in order to be aligned with the four corners of the stator element. The stator new configuration enables optimizing the use of lamination material during manufacturing and assembling the sheet packages of the stator element and rotor element; furthermore, the protruding poles, by being rotated 45? in the stator element, enable a reduction of electric losses in its windings and a decrease in the operative temperature of both the stator element and the rotor element, which enables an increase of the motor operation efficiency. Similarly, the reduction of the operative temperature of the stator element allows the use of plastic materials for its components.

A lamination pack for a motor and method of forming the lamination pack is provided. The method includes inserting a plurality of conductor bars into a plurality of rotor slots defined by a lamination stack such that opposing bar ends of the conductor bars extend from opposing end faces of the lamination stack, skewing the lamination stack and the conductor bars to a skew angle relative to a rotation axis of the lamination stack, and subsequently bending the bar ends of the conductor bars in opposing radial directions to a locking angle greater than the skew angle, to lock each of the conductor bars in its respective rotor slot. The bent bar ends exert a compressive axial locking force on the lamination stack to prevent axial and radial movement of the laminations in the lamination stack and to prevent axial movement of the conductor bars relative to the lamination stack.

A method for producing a short circuit rotor, by providing a laminated rotor core with through openings for shorting bars of a squirrel cage as well as providing the shorting bars; inserting of the shorting bars into the through openings such that an axial overhang remains on both sides; placing a main disk with through openings on both sides for the shorting bars, whose axial length corresponds to the overhang, as well as an edge disk immediately adjacent to the main disk and the ends of the shorting bars. The main disk and the edge disk form a shorting ring of the squirrel cage, and the main disk and the edge disk are welded by radially encircling electron beam welding.
