An electric motor cooling system, in one example, includes a stator at least partially surrounding a rotor and an inner passage extending axially through the rotor and including an inlet and an outlet. The cooling system further includes an outer passage including an inlet in fluidic communication with the outlet of the inner passage and an outlet in fluidic communication with an inlet of the inner passage and a phase change material in the inner passage and the outer passage.

An electrically powered propellor apparatus comprising an axial flux electric machine. The axial flux electric machine comprises a rotor, at least one stator and a shaft. The shaft mounts the rotor and the shaft is mounted in at least two spaced apart thrust bearings. Each of the thrust bearings is configured to resist thrust in opposing axial directions of the shaft.

A rotor and a motor including the same. The motor includes a stator and a rotor configured to rotate by interacting with the stator. The rotor includes a plurality of permanent magnets disposed in a circumferential direction of the rotor and rotor cores disposed between the plurality of permanent magnets. The rotor core includes a notch cut inward from a circumferential surface thereof, and the notch is formed in an asymmetric shape. The rotor core has a notch formed on one side of the circumferential surface and the rotor core has a shape inverted left and right with the rotor core are alternately stacked, so that a magnitude of a synthetic cogging torque generated in the rotor is reduced.

A feed axis motor includes a front-side housing fixed to an end face of a stator core. The stator core is formed of a material with iron as a main component. The front-side housing is formed of a material with aluminum as a main component. The stator core and the front-side housing are coupled with each other at a welding mark generated by laser welding. The welding mark extends in a circumferential direction so as to cover a line of contact between the stator core and the front-side housing. The welding mark seals the boundary portion between the stator core and the front-side housing.

An axial flux machine, in particular a single-sided axial flux motor, for an electrical machining device, has a machine shaft, in particular a motor shaft, a disc-shaped stator, a disc-shaped rotor which is arranged adjacent to the stator in the axial direction of the machine shaft. The stator is formed as a winding carrier for at least one stator winding and the rotor, which is connected to the machine shaft in a rotationally fixed manner, can be set in a rotational movement relative to the stator, and with a housing for receiving the stator and the rotor.
