Generator — General Information (Kalina 1119)

The vehicle is equipped with a three-phase alternating current generator with electromagnetic excitation, a diode rectifier unit and a built-in voltage regulator.

The generator is driven by a poly-V belt from the crankshaft pulley. The generator is attached to the engine using a bracket. The tensioner mechanism with a roller allows you to adjust the tension of the generator drive belt.

The stator and generator covers are tightened with four bolts. The stator contains a three-phase winding connected in a "star". The winding terminals are secured in plastic holders (with spring-loaded contacts) rectifier block.

The rotor contains an excitation winding, the terminals of which are soldered to two contact rings. The generator rotor shaft is mounted on two ball bearings. The front bearing is rolled into the front cover of the generator, and the rear bearing is pressed onto the rotor shaft and is pressed by the rear cover of the generator.

On the outside of the rear cover of the generator (under the plastic casing) a rectifier unit and a voltage regulator with a brush assembly are installed.

The rectifier block is assembled on six diodes connected by two aluminum horseshoe-shaped plates.

The voltage regulator is contactless, electronic, assembled into a single unit with a brush assembly.
