Systems, devices, and/or methods for balancing a rotating electric device
View Patent ↗Certain exemplary embodiments provide a rotating machine assembly comprising a rotor machine assembly including a shaft, a plurality of laminations shrink fit around the circumference of the shaft, and weights affixed therebetween the laminations for balancing the rotating machine assembly.
1. A system for balancing of a rotating device comprising:
a rotor;
a shaft provided within the rotor;
a first lamination shrink fit around the shaft;
a second lamination shrink fit around the shaft immediately adjacent the first lamination; and
a weight secured in an air vent of either the first or second lamination by a fastener secured between the first and second lamination, the weight secured for balancing the rotating device.
2. The system of claim 1 , further comprising an aperture in the weight for receiving the fastener for securing the weight in the air vent of either the first or second lamination.
3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the rotating device is a rotor assembly.
4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the rotating device is included with an electric engine.
5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the first lamination includes an air vent having a same shape as the weight and the second lamination includes an aperture having a circular shape.
