Abstract

A resolver has a stator includes a circular yoke, multiple salient poles radially projecting inward from the yoke, and winding wires wound around the salient poles via an insulator; a rotor disposed inside the stator; a wire outgoing portion arranged with plural terminal pins, the terminal pins being connected to end portions of the winding wires; and a terminal pin cover attached to the wire outgoing portion and covering the terminal pins. The terminal pin cover includes multiple spaces that individually contain one of the terminal pins. A filler is filled in each space, whereby the end portion of the winding wire electrically connected to the terminal pin is sealed in the filler.

Claims (13)

1. A resolver comprising:

a stator including a circular yoke, plural salient poles radially projecting inward from the yoke, and winding wires wound around the salient poles via an insulator;

a rotor disposed inside the stator;

a wire outgoing portion arranged with plural terminal pins, the terminal pins being connected to end portions of the winding wires; and

a terminal pin cover attached to the wire outgoing portion and covering the terminal pins;

wherein the terminal pin cover has a rectangular parallelepiped shape with only one side with an opening and includes plural spaces which individually contain the terminal pins respectively, and each space is filled with a filler, and

wherein the only one side of the terminal pin cover is closed with the wire outgoing portion so that the terminal pin cover is entirely closed with no sides that are open and the end portions of the winding wires electrically connected to the terminal pins are sealed in the filler.

2. The resolver according to claim 1 , wherein an engaging portion for engaging with the wire outgoing portion is integrally formed at both sides of the terminal pin cover.

3. The resolver according to claim 1 , wherein the spaces are separated by ribs connecting inner opposite surfaces of the terminal pin cover.

4. The resolver according to claim 2 , wherein the wire outgoing portion is provided with a step portion for engaging with the engaging portion.

5. The resolver according to claim 2 , wherein the engaging portion is a hook portion having arms extending from the terminal pin cover, a column extending from an end of each of the arms along an axial direction of the rotor, and a hook extending from an end of the column along the direction in which the spaces are aligned toward an opposite hook portion.

6. The resolver according to claim 5 , wherein the hook is formed with a sloping surface at a side opposite to the column with a downhill slope toward the opposite hook portion.

7. The resolver according to claim 1 , wherein the terminal pins extend along an axial direction, and each end of the terminal pins faces a side of the terminal pin cover opposite the only one side.
