`U.S. Patent No. 7,067,944: Claim 3
`"c) a thermoplastic material secured to the shaft and substantially encapsulating the pole assembly,"
`The Pump comprises a thermoplastic material secured to the shaft and substantially encapsulating the pole assembly.
`
`For example, the motor of the Pump includes a thermoplastic body that is formed from a material identified on the Pump as
`“PPS – GF 30” as shown below:

`U.S. Patent No. 7,067,944: Claim 3
`"c) a thermoplastic material secured to the shaft and substantially encapsulating the pole assembly,"
`The thermoplastic material secured to the shaft also substantially encapsulates the pole assembly. For example, as shown in
`the picture below the thermoplastic material of the Pump encapsulates all of the core and the pole assembly.

`"c) the thermoplastic material joining the pole assembly to the shaft in the space between the pole assembly and the shaft, filling in the space between them
`such that the windings, core and shaft are rigidly fixed together."
`The pump comprises thermoplastic material joining the pole assembly to the shaft in the space between the pole assembly
`and the shaft, filling in the space between them such that the windings, core and shaft are rigidly fixed together.
`
`c) the thermoplastic material
`joining the pole assembly to
`the shaft in the space
`between the pole assembly
`and the shaft, filling in the
`space between them such
`that the windings, core and
`shaft are rigidly fixed
`together.
`
`For example, thermoplastic material encapsulates and rigidly fixes the shaft into the same body of material that encapsulates
`the copper wire, as shown in the picture below:
`
`IMG_2013.JPG
`
`The picture directly below shows the Pump from the reverse side, with the shaft extending outward to receive the rotor:

`"c) the thermoplastic material joining the pole assembly to the shaft in the space between the pole assembly and the shaft, filling in the space between them
`such that the windings, core and shaft are rigidly fixed together."
`
`IMG_2036.JPG
`
`The thermoplastic body substantially encapsulates the pole assembly and also contains a portion that surrounds and secures
`to the shaft. The pole assembly and shaft are separated by a visible distance that is filled with the thermoplastic material, as
`shown above. The thermoplastic material rigidly fixes the core, copper wire and shaft together.
