Abstract
The dynamoelectric machine has endwindings including a plurality of superposed conductor bars 22 and adjacent end turns 20. Rabbets 32 are formed along the undersides of the adjoining conductor bars and end turns to receive portions 34 of gussets 30, remaining portions 35 of the gussets projecting to one side of the joint. The conductor bars and end turns have grooves 38, 36 forming cooling passages with ports 42, 40 opening to one side of the joint short of the joint. The gusset 30 has a barrier 44 spaced from the joint and forms with the ports a cooling channel 46 between the ports for transporting cooling gas between the cooling gas channels of the conductor bars and end turns.
