Abstract:
Methods, systems and apparatuses for mounting a motor rotor to a shaft of a compressor are disclosed. The shaft can include a rib region that is configured to form a press fit or a transition fit with the rotor bore. An end of the shaft can also include a plurality of crenulations that can be expanded outwardly in a radial direction relative to a centerline of the shaft. After the rotor is mounted onto the shaft, the crenulations can be expanded to eliminate the clearance between the shaft and the rotor to form a press fit with the rotor bore.

Claim (Index 13):
A rotor and shaft assembly, comprising:\n a rotor, the rotor including a rotor bore: a shaft, the shaft received by the rotor bore, the shaft includes an elongated body having a first end and a second end, wherein the first end defines a mounted end and the second end defines a loading end; a plug, an axial biasing member, and a connecting device; wherein the shaft includes a rib configured to form a press fit or a transition fit with the rotor bore, and the rib is disposed closer to the first end of the elongated body than the second end of the elongated body; the second end of the elongated body includes an expandable structure, wherein the expandable structure defines a pocket that is configured to receive the plug; the axial biasing member is disposed between the expandable structure and the plug; and the connecting device is configured to push the plug into the pocket which results in expansion of the expandable structure.
