A cooling arrangement for electric machines where cooling plates are maintained against the inner surface of the stator and are interconnected by a cooling tube that carries the stator generated heat outside of the machine.

Modular cooling arrangement for electric machine

A cooling assembly for the stator of an electric machine provided with coils including heads is described herein. The cooling assembly includes a generally cylindrical cooling body provided with opposite longitudinal ends and at least one head-cooling element mounted to one of the longitudinal end of the body; the head-cooling element being so configured as to enclose heads of the coils and to receive heat conducting material therein.

Cooling assembly for electric machines

A multi-path liquid cooling arrangement for electric machines includes a heat storing element provided with channels having a generally C-shaped cross-section and cooling tubes so configured and sized as to be insertable in the channels is described herein. The cooling tubes, once inserted in the channels, are deformed to conform thereto, whereby heat stored in the heat storing element is extracted by circulating cooling fluid inside the cooling tubes.

Multi-path liquid cooling arrangement for electric machines

The insertion of electrically insulating paper from a continuous roll into slots of a stator created by outwardly projecting teeth is described herein. The insertion of the insulating paper is done by the insertion of prewound coils in the stator slots. The electrically insulating paper is not cut prior to its insertion in the slots, thereby completely covering the outer surface of the stator. The insertion systems and methods described herein are also optionally concerned with the insertion of interphase insulation paper between the different coils inserted in the stator slots and with the insertion of slot closing wedges.

Insertion system and method to insert insulators and coils in the slots of the stator of an electric machine

A liquid cooling arrangement for electric machines uses a continuous cooling tube associated with a heat storing element. The cooling tube has a serpentine configuration and the heat storing element includes longitudinal slots starting from both longitudinal ends of the heat storing element. Accordingly, it is possible to slightly deform the heat storing element to properly position it into the internal stator of an electric machine. An internal biasing assembly may be used to force the external surface of the heat storing element to the internal surface of the stator.

Liquid cooling arrangement for electric machines

A cooling assembly to be positioned inside an internal stator of an electric machine is described herein. The cooling assembly includes a plurality of cooling segments that may be so mounted to a support structure as to be biased towards an inner surface of the stator.
