发明名称 Motor Rotor Cooling System
摘要 A rotor assembly for an electric motor is provided that includes coolant passageways that pass through the rotor's lamination stack, thereby providing means for directly cooling the rotor assembly. In order to promote cooling, the coolant passageways within the lamination stack may be shaped, for example in a helical or spiral pattern.

主权项 1. A motor assembly with an integrated rotor cooling system, comprising: a stator contained within a motor enclosure; a rotor shaft, wherein said rotor shaft passes between a first end cap and a second end cap of said motor enclosure; and a rotor assembly mounted to said rotor shaft, said rotor assembly comprising: a plurality of lamination discs, wherein each of said plurality of lamination discs is comprised of a plurality of slots, wherein each of said plurality of lamination discs is comprised of a plurality of coolant apertures, wherein said plurality of lamination discs is assembled into a rotor stack, wherein said plurality of slots of each of said plurality of lamination discs are co-aligned within said rotor stack, and wherein said plurality of coolant apertures corresponding to each of said plurality of lamination discs are aligned within said rotor stack to form a plurality of coolant passageways that pass through said rotor stack between a first end surface of said rotor stack and a second end surface of said rotor stack; anda plurality of conductive rotor bars passing through said plurality of slots of said plurality of lamination discs comprising said rotor stack.
