Abstract: A bearing assembly (10) is presented having a novel lubricant sealing design that, in one embodiment, combines the sealing advantages of both a labyrinth-like seal in combination with a contact seal. The improved seal includes a non-rotating seal case (52) working in closely spaced cooperation with a rotor (82) to form a channel (97). The rotor (82) is attached and turns with the shaft (14), inducing flow in the channel (97). Lubricant leakage is impeded by the tortuous fluid path formed by the convoluted channel (97) of the labyrinth-like seal and the fluid shear forces developed by the turning shaft (14). Any lubricant leakage is further impeded by a resilient seal (72) contacting the surface of the rotor (82) and constricting the channel (97).

Abstract: Improved stiffening and minimized distortion of a housing (36) for an eVCP (10,10',10") achieved by forming a plurality of radial stiffeners (66,66') into the housing (36) around the motor mount end and into the eVCP's hub (20). A back plate (55,55',55") is press fit into a bore (68) in the rear of the housing (36), and a straight axial knurl (70) is applied to the surface of the back plate (55,55',55") or housing (36), which knurl permits a larger tolerance-higher press fit class to be used without resulting in significant deformation of the housing (36). The knurled back plate is harder than the housing, causing the high points of the knurl to plastically deform or plow the housing material during assembly, resulting in less radial deformation of the bore (68) and the journal bearing interface (35) to improve axial stability between the hub (20) and housing (36).
