Abstract
The stator core of a dynamoelectric machine is end-supported by a flexible mounting which includes bore rings encircling the stator core near each axial end and at spaced-apart locations intermediate thereto. Outer and inner place springs axially extend independently along each exterior side of the stator core within the horizontal center plane thereof and below the stator core within the vertical center plane thereof to independently interconnect the bore rings with end boxes situated at either axial end of the stator core. The outer springs are each joined to at least one intermediately disposed bore ring and the inner springs are each joined to at least one end-disposed bore ring. The bore rings have notches, indentations, and/or flat surfaces on their outer periphery for attachment to each of the springs.
