Abstract

A segmented annular stator for a dynamo-electric machine is disclosed which simplifies transport and assembly of the machine. The segment has a cross section essentially shaped as a circular arc and includes a first and a second segment boundary configured for attachment to an additional segment, a corresponding coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system, a first conductor, and a second conductor. The first conductor is connected to the second conductor via an end connection in an area of end windings, such that a first coil associated with a first phase surrounds second and third coils associated with second and third phases of the three-phase system.

Claims (27)

1. A segment for an annular stator of a dynamo-electric machine having a cross-section essentially in form of a circular arc, the segment comprising:

a first and a second segment boundary configured for attachment to an additional segment,

at least one coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system, wherein first and a second coils of a first and a second phase of the three-phase system are continuously concentrically wound and a third coil of a third phase of the three-phase system is constructed from two half-coils which are wound and are each arranged at a respective one of the first and a second segment boundaries, with a first half-coil having

at least one first conductor, and a second half-coil having

at least one second conductor,

wherein an end winding of the at least one first conductor of a first half-coil is connected to an end winding of the at least one second conductor of a second half-coil via an end connection within the segment, such that current flow through the coils of a segment is independent of current flow through coils of an additional segment.

2. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the coils of a segment produce a first pole of a pole pair of a rotating field.

3. The segment of claim 2 , wherein the segment comprises at least one second coil for each phase of the three-phase system, which is closed within the segment and produces a second pole of a pole pair of a rotating field.

4. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the first, second and third coils are arranged as a tier winding, such that the conductors of the first, second and third coils of a pole of a pole pair are superpositioned in the area of the end windings.

5. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the first, second and third coils are in form of a single-layer winding.

6. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the first, second and third coils are in form of a two-layer winding.

7. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the adjacent segments of the annular stator are separable from one another.

8. A dynamo-electric machine having an annular stator comprised of at least two segments having a cross-section essentially in form of a circular arc, each of the at least two segments comprising:

a first and a second segment boundary configured for attachment to another of the at least two segments,

at least one coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system,

at least one coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system, wherein first and a second coils of a first and a second phase of the three-phase system are continuously concentrically wound and a third coil of a third phase of the three-phase system is constructed from two half-coils which are wound and are each arranged at a respective one of the first and a second segment boundaries, with a first half-coil having

at least one first conductor, and a second half-coil having

at least one second conductor,

wherein an end winding of the at least one first conductor of a first half-coil is connected to an end winding of the at least one second conductor of a second half-coil via an end connection within the segment, such that current flow through the coils of a segment is independent of current flow through coils of an additional segment.

9. The dynamo-electric machine of claim 8 , wherein the dynamo-electric machine is in the form of a directly driven generator for a wind power installation or a tidal power station.

10. A wind power installation having a dynamo-electric machine having an annular stator comprised of at least two segments having a cross-section essentially in form of a circular arc, each of the at least two segments comprising:

a first and a second segment boundary configured for attachment to another of the at least two segments,

at least one coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system,

at least one coil associated with each phase of a three-phase system, wherein first and a second coils of a first and a second phase of the three-phase system are continuously concentrically wound and a third coil of a third phase of the three-phase system is constructed from two half-coils which are wound and are each arranged at a respective one of the first and a second segment boundaries, with a first half-coil having

at least one first conductor, and a second half-coil having

at least one second conductor,

wherein an end winding of the at least one first conductor of a first half-coil is connected to an end winding of the at least one second conductor of a second half-coil via an end connection within the segment, such that current flow through the coils of a segment is independent of current flow through coils of an additional segment.
