ELECTRIC MACHINE WITH HORIZONTAL SHAFT Russian patent published in 1998 - IPC

FIELD: electrical engineering. SUBSTANCE: electric machine with horizontal shaft includes steel-sheet stator body 1 arranged in horizontally divided casing (2,3) and clamped by means of fastening wedges placed along its perimeter in mutually spaced support rings 32 arranged normally relative to lengthwise axis of electric machine. Along perimeter support rings are joined by means of fastening members 39,40 with lower portion 2 of machine casing. Fastening members 40 are in the form of fastening plates arranged symmetrically relative to vertical symmetry axis of machine. In order to isolate stator body 1 from lower portion 2 of casing, fastening plates are secured to support rings 32 with possibility of spring-loading in HORIZONTAL and radial directions. Fastening plate itself is in the form of leaf spring or it operates as such spring. EFFECT: simple and effective isolation of electric machine from oscillations, sound-insulated suspension of steel stator body in machine casing without use of expensive spring and/or support members. 6 cl, 5 dwg
