Abstract
A method of assembling a resolver rotor to a hub of a transmission assembly is provided. The method includes: forming a generally axially extending groove in an outer surface of the hub, the groove extending at an assembly angle greater than 0 degrees relative to an axial direction from a hub end toward a hub base, the assembly angle being positive in a direction that is opposite to a rotation direction of the hub in use; forming a projection on an inner surface of the resolver rotor, the projection being configured to have an interference fit with the groove upon assembly; and assembling the resolver rotor onto the hub with the at least one projection traveling along and interfering with a portion of the at least one groove as the resolver rotor moves to a seated position toward the hub base. A transmission assembly is also provided.
