Electric terminal portions electrically connected to the rotating electric machine are disposed at one end part of the rotating electric machine housing. When viewed from a side along an axial direction of the rotating electric machine system, the electric terminal portions and the rotational parameter detector are arranged in parallel.

An electric-motor drive, more particularly a fan drive, is provided for a motor vehicle. The drive contains an electric motor which has a rotatably mounted rotor and a stator having a laminated core. The laminated core forms a stator yoke and stator teeth of the stator, the stator teeth are directed radially from the stator yoke, and a stator winding is supported on the stator teeth. An electrically conductive covering part is provided for influencing and/or screening electromagnetic interference fields produced during the electric-motor operation. The covering part has a sleeve-type lateral wall and a circular-ring-shaped cover surface, which protrudes radially inward from an end of the lateral wall. The lateral wall is placed onto an outer periphery of the stator yoke. The cover surface axially covers the stator winding at least partly, and the lateral wall has a number of venting openings.

The present invention relates to rotary devices, such as an electric motors and power generators, having dual and multiple air gaps. Disclosed is a rotary device characterized by comprising a rotor part, a stator part, an inner support part, and a housing part. The inner support part is coupled and fixed to the housing part. The stator part includes: an inner stator part which includes an inner iron core coupled and fixed to the inner support part, and an inner wire wound on the inner iron core; and an outer stator part which includes an outer iron core coupled and fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the housing part, and an outer wire wound on the outer iron core. The rotor part includes: a rotor-side magnetic force application part which has, on the inner circumferential side, the inner stator part and an inner air gap, and has, on the outer circumferential side, the outer stator part and an outer air gap; and a pair of end support parts installed at respective ends of the rotor-side magnetic force application part. At least one among the pair of end support parts is coupled and fixed to a rotary shaft which is rotatably installed in the housing part.

A standby generator includes an internal combustion engine, an alternator driven by the internal combustion engine to produce electrical power for distribution from the standby generator, and an adaptor component comprising a first end coupled to the engine and a second end spaced apart from the first end and coupled to the alternator. The adaptor component may be positioned such that the internal combustion engine is on a first side thereof and the alternator is on a second side thereof. An air-cooled oil cooler may be integrated with or affixed to the adapter component and include cooling fins formed on an outer surface thereof, the air-cooled oil cooler fluidly connected to the internal combustion engine to receive heated oil therefrom and return cooled oil thereto.

A non-output-side end shield (100) for a brushless electric motor (500) is provided, including a centrally arranged bearing seat (110) for accommodating a non-output-side rotor bearing (510) for a rotor shaft (560) of the brushless electric motor (500), the non-output-side end shield (100) including a sensor receptacle (150), which is used as a carrier for a sensor circuit board (550) for detecting the rotational position of the rotor shaft (560), the non-output-side end shield (100) and the sensor receptacle (150) being formed together as a one-part component.

An electric machine includes a housing having an air intake, an air outlet, and defining an air passage therein. The air passage includes a first channel extending from the air intake in a radial direction and a second channel extending in the radial direction to the outlet. The electric machine further includes a motor assembly positioned within the housing that includes a shaft that rotates about a rotational axis that is generally perpendicular to the radial direction. The electric machine further includes an electronics assembly within the housing interior and a heat sink positioned at least partially within the air passage and thermally connected to the electronics assembly. Operation of the motor assembly draws an ambient airflow into the air passage in the radial direction through the air intake, directs the airflow along the heat sink, and exhausts the airflow through the air outlet in the radial direction.

A power tool is provided including a gear case having a spindle, a motor case connected to a rear end of the gear case along a longitudinal axis; a handle portion extending from a rear end of the motor case along the longitudinal axis; a motor housed inside the motor case; a fan in rotational connection with the motor; at least one air intake arranged at least one of the motor case or the handle portion near the rear end of the motor case; and a power module including power switches for driving the motor and a heat sink. The power module is housed in at least one of the motor case or the handle portion near the rear end of the motor case such that rotation of the fan causes air flow to enter through the air intake and flow near the heat sink and through the motor.
