Abstract
Abstract A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor and a stator member and a bearing assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft. The bearing support including a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator radially inwardly of the windings and a bearing housing of metallic material connected to the inner edge portion of said flange. The housing including radial portions in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a bearing assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator and a bearing housing of metallic material connected to the inner edge portion of said flange, said housing including radial portions in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing, said housing including a generally cylindrical axial portion terminating in a radially outturned edge adjacent the end thereof connected to said flange, said outturned edge being formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced teeth to improve the torque resistance of the bond between the flange and housing and means defining an annular groove in the housing adjacent said edge tO improve the axial strength of said bond between the non-metallic flange and housing.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
155 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a bearing assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator and a bearing housing of metallic material connected to the inner edge portion of said flange, said housing including radial portions in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing, said housing including a generally cylindrical axial portion terminating in a radially outturned edge adjacent the end thereof connected to said flange, said outturned edge being formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced teeth to improve the torque resistance of the bond between the flange and housing and means defining an annular groove in the housing adjacent said edge tO improve the axial strength of said bond between the non-metallic flange and housing.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
155 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a bearing assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator and a bearing housing of metallic material connected to the inner edge portion of said flange, said housing including radial portions in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing, said housing including a generally cylindrical axial portion terminating in a radially outturned edge adjacent the end thereof connected to said flange, said outturned edge being formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced teeth to improve the torque resistance of the bond between the flange and housing and means defining an annular groove in the housing adjacent said edge tO improve the axial strength of said bond between the non-metallic flange and housing.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
155 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a bearing assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator and a bearing housing of metallic material connected to the inner edge portion of said flange, said housing including radial portions in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing, said housing including a generally cylindrical axial portion terminating in a radially outturned edge adjacent the end thereof connected to said flange, said outturned edge being formed with a plurality of circumferentially spaced teeth to improve the torque resistance of the bond between the flange and housing and means defining an annular groove in the housing adjacent said edge tO improve the axial strength of said bond between the non-metallic flange and housing.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
30 words
A bearing support according to claim 1, wherein the metallic bearing assembly comprises a plurality of parts attached to the non-metallic material of the holder in detachable or non-detachable manner.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
129 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a baring assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a bearing housing made of a metallic material and including a generally cylindrical axially extending wall portion overlying the bearing assembly, a plurality of circumferentially spaced lugs projecting radially outwardly from said axial wall portion and a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator radially inwardly of the windings and bonded at its inner portion to said lugs, said housing including a radial wall portion, said radial wall portion and one face of said lugs being in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
129 words
A bearing support for apparatus having a rotor member and a stator member and a baring assembly for rotatably supporting one of said members on a shaft, said bearing support comprising a bearing housing made of a metallic material and including a generally cylindrical axially extending wall portion overlying the bearing assembly, a plurality of circumferentially spaced lugs projecting radially outwardly from said axial wall portion and a flange made of a non-metallic material connected at its outer edge portion to the stator radially inwardly of the windings and bonded at its inner portion to said lugs, said housing including a radial wall portion, said radial wall portion and one face of said lugs being in direct contact with ambient air to effectively dissipate heat generated by the bearing.
