ABSTRACT:
A small rotor assembly for an alternating current motor and method of assembly are disclosed. The rotor assembly includes a squirrel cage winding which is die-cast onto a rotor subassembly of a shaft, a hollow, elongated hub, and a stack of rotor laminations. This squirrel cage winding does double duty of providing a short-circuited winding for the rotor and a unifying and rigidifying portion along a considerable length of the shaft for the rotor assembly in a unit-bearing motor. The single bearing of the unit-bearing motor extends inside the elongated hub, and the considerable length of die-cast sleeve along the shaft assures a rigid rotor assembly structure which permits the journal portion of the shaft to be very nearly perfectly concentric with the outside diameter of the rotor lamination. The result is considerably less eccentricity than in the prior art, resulting in a smaller air gap and a more efficient motor.
