Patent attributes
An electric coolant pump system is presented including a housing having a main body and an end cap. The main body having a hollow interior and an open end. The end cap is operably connected to the main body and closes the open end of the main body. The system includes a rotor shaft operably connected to the housing. The system includes a rotor operably connected to the rotor shaft and positioned within the hollow interior. The system includes an impeller operably connected to the rotor. The system includes a stator configured to generate a rotating electromagnetic field during operation. The rotor is configured to rotate the impeller in response to the rotating electromagnetic field. The impeller is configured to pump a coolant when rotated. One or more components of the electric coolant pump system thermally expand and contract as the coolant is heated and cooled.
