A salt spray resistant structure of fan motor assembly includes a silicon steel sheet assembly, an insulation support assembly and an encapsulation layer. An inner side of the silicon steel sheet assembly defines a connection hole. A winding assembly is wound on the silicon steel sheet assembly and electrically connected with a circuit board. A first extension section protrudes from the silicon steel sheet assembly into the connection hole to cover a part of the inner side. A bearing cup covers the other part of the inner side. The encapsulation layer encapsulates the insulation support assembly, the winding assembly, the silicon steel sheet assembly and the circuit board so as to achieve salt spray resistant effect.

Presented are oleophilic surface treatments for electric machines, methods for making/using such electric machines, and vehicles employing traction motors having stator windings with oleophilic treatments on select surfaces. An electric machine includes an outer housing with a direct-cooling thermal management system fluidly connected to the housing to circulate thereto a coolant fluid. A stator assembly, which is attached to the housing, includes a stator core with one or more electromagnetic windings mounted to the stator core. A rotor assembly is movably mounted to the hosing adjacent the stator assembly. The rotor assembly includes a rotor core with one or more magnets mounted to the rotor core spaced, e.g., across an air gap, from the winding(s). Select components of the stator assembly have a target surface with an oleophilic surface treatment that enlarges the target surface's wetted area and increases a coolant mass of the coolant fluid contacting the target surface.

A waterproof fan includes: a rotor including a rotating blade capable of rotating about a rotation axis; a stator including a plurality of stator cores extending in a radial direction relative to the rotation axis, and a winding wound around each of the stator cores; a frame including a housing space opening toward one side of the rotation axis; a circuit board electrically connected to the winding and housed in the housing space; a waterproofing resin portion covering the stator and the circuit board to block the opening of the housing space; and a positioning member provided in the housing space and configured to position the circuit board at a position away from an inner wall of the housing space.

An apparatus including a frame, an optical sensor connected to the frame, and an environment separation barrier. The frame is configured to be attached to a housing of a motor assembly proximate an aperture which extends through the housing. The optical sensor comprises a camera. The environment separation barrier is configured to be connected to the housing at the aperture, where the environment separation barrier is at least partially transparent and located relative to the camera to allow the camera to view an image inside the housing through the environment separation barrier and the aperture.

A system and method for enhanced magnet wire insulation is described. A method of making an enhanced magnet wire insulation suited for an electric submersible motor application includes drawing copper magnet wire to size, cleaning the copper magnet wire, pulling the copper magnet wire through a polyimide wrap machine to produce wrapped copper magnet wire and placing the wrapped copper magnet wire around a spool, heating the wrapped magnet wire by unspooling the wrapped magnet wire through a tube comprising an induction coil, removing moisture from the heated, wrapped copper magnet wire by creating at least a partial vacuum inside the tube, redrawing the wrapped copper magnet wire through an extrusion mold after moisture is removed, applying molten PEEK to the wrapped copper magnet wire to produce enhanced magnet wire, and winding the enhanced magnet wire into an induction motor to be used to operate an electric submersible pump.
