Abstract:
1. An electro-dynamic machine comprising: a rotor shaft extending along an axis; a first end frame rotatably supporting the rotor shaft at a first axial position; a substantially cylindrical main frame member coaxially disposed about the rotor shaft frame and having a first end and a second end, the first end coupled to the first end frame, the main frame having one of a first diameter and a second diameter; a bearing housing defining an annular bearing cavity for rotatably supporting the rotor shaft at a second axial position; a first support member disposed radially outwardly of the bearing housing, the first support member including a first radial support surface for engaging the second end of the main frame member; a second support member disposed radially outwardly of the first support member and axially displaced from the first support member, the second support member including a cylindrical body with a terminal end, a base end opposite the terminal end, the base end including a second radial support surface for engaging the second end of the main frame member and a radial extension portion extending radially from the cylindrical body; and a mounting member extending axially from the radial extension portion, the mounting member defining an aperture for receiving a BX fitting.
