Rotating electrical machine
View Patent ↗A rotating electrical machine includes: a stator that includes a stator core and a stator coil; a rotor that rotates with respect to the stator; a refrigerant supply port through which a cooling medium is supplied to a coil end protruding from the stator core; and a guide member, disposed along at least a part of the coil end, for causing the cooling medium supplied through the refrigerant supply port to flow along the coil end.
1. A rotating electrical machine, comprising:
a stator that includes a stator core and a stator coil;
a rotor that rotates with respect to the stator;
a refrigerant supply port through which a cooling medium is supplied to a coil end protruding from the stator core; and
a guide member, disposed along at least a part of the coil end, for causing the cooling medium supplied through the refrigerant supply port to flow along the coil end, wherein:
the guide member has a substantially semi-circular first guide member opening downward and a substantially semi-circular second guide member opening upward,
the first guide member is disposed along an inner circumference of the upper half portion of the coil end,
the second guide member is disposed along an outer circumference of the lower half portion of the coil end, and
the width of the first guide member that is substantially equal to the inner circumference diameter of the stator coil is less than the width of the second guide member that is substantially equal to the outer circumference diameter of the stator coil.
2. A rotating electrical machine according to claim 1 , wherein:
a rotating shaft of the rotor is placed horizontally; and
above a horizontal plane including the rotating shaft, the guide member is disposed on at least a part of an inner circumference side of the coil end, and below the horizontal plane including the rotating shaft, the guide member is disposed on at least a part of an outer circumference side of the coil end.
3. A rotating electrical machine according to claim 1 ,
wherein:
the guide member is formed of an insulation paper that insulates between the stator core and the stator coil.
4. A rotating electrical machine according to claim 1 ,
wherein:
a guide groove for guiding a flow of the cooling medium in a circumferential direction is formed on a surface of the guide member.
5. A rotating electrical machine according to claim 1 , wherein:
the stator coil is wound on a tooth of the stator core through a bobbin;
a flange extending in a rotation axis direction of the rotor is formed at an axial end of the bobbin; and
an end portion of the flange is bent in a radial direction of the rotor so as to form the guide member.
6. A rotating electrical machine according to claim 5 , wherein:
a rotating shaft of the rotor is placed horizontally;
above a horizontal plane including the rotating shaft, the guide member is formed by bending radially outward the flange that is arranged radially inward of the coil end; and
below the horizontal plane including the rotating shaft, the guide member is formed by bending radially inward the flange that is arranged radially outward of the coil end.
7. A rotating electrical machine, comprising:
a stator that includes a stator core and a stator coil;
a rotor that rotates with respect to the stator; and
a refrigerant supply port through which an oil based cooling medium is supplied to a coil end protruding from the stator core, wherein:
at least one of an inner circumference surface and an outer circumference surface of the coil end is applied with a coating material having a higher lipophilicity than that of a coating material applied to a top end face of the coil end.
