ABSTRACT:
A method for reducing the movement of a rotor cage relative to a rotor core in a rotor assembly, such as found in a squirrel cage AC induction motor. Movement is reduced by forming a depression in a portion of a rotor bar of the rotor cage. Formation of the depression displaces rotor bar material adjacent to the depression. The displacement of rotor bar material deforms an adjacent portion of the rotor core thereby fixing the rotor cage to the rotor core. The reduction in movement between the rotor cage and the rotor core is dependent on various depression geometries, quantities and positions. The invention further includes a rotor assembly with a substantially cylindrical rotor core having longitudinally extending slots on its outer surface. A rotor bar is positioned in at least one of the slots. The rotor assembly has at least one depression formed in a rotor bar which displaces rotor bar material into the rotor core, whereby the rotor bar is substantially fixed into a desired position with respect to the rotor core.
