Electric machine with integrated rotor

An electric machine, comprising:

• a shaft having an axis of rotation;
• an integrated rotor mechanically coupled with the shaft, the integrated rotor comprising an axial rotor component arranged substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation, a radial rotor component arranged substantially parallel to the axis of rotation, and a transition rotor component arranged at a first angle with respect to the axial rotor component and at a second angle with respect to the radial rotor component;
• a stator assembly comprising an axial stator component arranged substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation, a radial stator component arranged substantially parallel to the axis of rotation and a transitional stator component arranged substantially parallel to the transition rotor component;
• wherein the transition rotor component is configured to mechanically integrate the radial rotor component and the axial rotor component into the integrated rotor such that the axial rotor component, the radial rotor component and the transition rotor component have a common angular velocity.
