Electric motor oil pump with integrated bearing support

A rotating assembly comprising:

• a bearing carrier comprising:
• a rim;
• a hub, wherein the hub is disposed radially inwards of and axially extends from the rim, wherein an inner radius of the hub defines a bearing surface, wherein the bearing surface is coincident to a central axis of the bearing carrier;
• a flange, wherein the flange extends from the hub, wherein the hub is axially disposed between the rim and the flange, wherein the flange defines a centered through hole, wherein the centered through hole is coincident with the central axis;
• an external annular lip, wherein the external annular lip axially extends from the rim away from the hub and the flange, wherein the external annular lip is disposed radially outwards of the hub and the flange, wherein the external annular lip is coincident with the central axis;
• and
• an internal annular lip, wherein the internal annular lip axially extends from the flange towards the rim, wherein the internal annular lip is disposed radially inwards of the hub, wherein the internal annular lip is disposed radially outwards of the centered through hole, wherein the internal annular lip is coincident with the central axis;
• a bearing, wherein the bearing is disposed radially inwards of and coupled to the bearing surface;
• a resolver rotor, wherein the resolver rotor is disposed radially outwards of and coupled to the external annular lip;
• a pump coupler, wherein the pump coupler is disposed radially inwards of and coupled to the internal annular lip;
• a shaft;
• an electromagnetic rotor;
• and
• a rotor carrier, wherein the rim and the shaft are coupled to opposing axial ends of the rotor carrier, wherein the electromagnetic rotor is disposed radially outwards of and coupled to the rotor carrier between the rim and the shaft.
