Abstract

A concatenated motor assembly for providing rotational power that includes a continuous rotatable shaft cooperating with a first motor module assembly. The first motor module assembly communicates with a motor coupling unit, which in turn communicates with a second motor module. The second motor module and the motor coupling unit each cooperate with the rotatable shaft. The first and second motor modules are wound rotor electric motor. The first motor module assembly generates and provides an induced current to the motor coupling unit, which in turn provides power input to the second motor module assembly.
