Abstract
A rotor of an electric machine is disclosed that resists expansion of the rotor components even at high rotational speed. The rotor includes first and second pluralities of laminations having slots to accept rotor bars. A support disk, also having slots, is placed between the laminations. The support disk, into which the rotor bars are slid, restrains the rotor bars from bending outwardly at high rotational speeds of the rotor. The rotor bars are further restrained at the ends by end rings, which have apertures into which ends of the rotor bars are placed. In some embodiments, containment rings are placed over axial extension of the end rings to prevent outward bowing at high speeds. In some embodiments, the rotor includes a stiffener sleeve to provide additional resistance to expansion during high rotational speeds.
