An electric machine having a stator with windings all having the same length. The stator includes a plurality of slots. A plurality of windings are mounted in the slots of the stator core and define a plurality of poles circumferentially distributed about the stator core. Each winding defines at least a first wrap and a second wrap wherein each of the first and second wraps circumscribes the stator core. Each of the first and second wraps includes a wire segment disposed in a slot in each pole. The first wrap of each winding is primarily disposed in one of the layers and the second wrap of each winding is primarily disposed in a different one of the layers. The first wrap of each winding defines a first linear length and the second wrap of each winding defines a second linear length that differs from the first linear length.

Electric machine with stator having multi-tiered end turns

A multi-phase electric machine having plurality of windings are mounted on the stator core and define a plurality of phases with each phase having at least two parallel windings. A standard pitch is defined between each pole of each phase, the pitch being a common circumferential spacing between corresponding slots of each pole. Each of the windings has a position change end loop at the same location, wherein the position change end loops define a non-standard pitch to thereby change the relative positions of the parallel windings in the slots. At each set of such position change end loops, the windings defining a greater pitch extend over the windings defining a lesser pitch.

Electric machine with stator windings having over-under end loops

An electric machine including a rotor and a stator and having a first winding. The stator slots define a plurality of layer positions wherein each of the layer positions is at a different radial distance from the axis. There is an odd number of select stator slots wherein for two slot segments disposed in different layer positions, a pair of end loops connect each of the slot segments with another slot segment in a different slot that is in the same layer position. In some embodiments, at least 60 percent of the end loops connect slot segments that are disposed in different layer positions. For some embodiments, only a single select stator slot is provided with the end loops being positioned to reduce spatial conflicts.

Electric machine with windings having end loop arrangement

A hand shower including a handle with a first waterway including an inlet portion and an outlet portion, the inlet portion configured to be fluidly coupled to a water supply. A shower head includes a second waterway having an inlet portion and an outlet portion. The inlet portion of the second waterway is fluidly coupled to the outlet portion of the first waterway, and the outlet portion of the second waterway includes a plurality of outlets configured to deliver water. The shower head is supported for rotation about a longitudinal axis of the handle between a first position and a second position angularly spaced from the first position.

Hand shower

A molded waterway assembly for a centerset faucet including a hot water inlet tube, a cold water inlet tube, and a central body of a coupler overmolded within hot and cold water bodies of the coupler.

Centerset faucet body and method of making same

A fluid delivery device includes a waterway assembly, a valve assembly, and a waterway adapter that fluidly couples the waterway assembly to the valve assembly. An illustrative waterway adapter may be constructed of a polymeric material.

Waterway adapter

A multi-function faucet wand configured to be removably supported by the delivery spout of a faucet. The faucet wand includes a mode control movable in response to user input from between a first position for directing water in an aerate mode, and a second position for directing water in a spray mode. A flow control is movable in response to user input from between a first position for providing a low flow rate of water, and a second position for providing a high flow rate of water.
