Stator and rotating electric machine equipped with same
A stator in which the height of a coil end of a stator winding can be lowered is provided, and an electric rotating machine including such a stator is provided. In a stator of an electric rotating machine including a stator winding including neutral lines and output lines, the neutral lines are configured to include crawling portion extending circumferentially in the upper portion of a coil at the coil end, and the crawling portion includes an axial stepped portion. The output lines are configured to pass under the axial stepped portion in at least one location of three phases.
1. A stator of an electric rotating machine, comprising:
a stator core having a slot; and
a stator winding including a first neutral line and an output line, which consists of 3 phases of U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase, wherein
the stator winding is inserted in the slot and wound around the stator core,
the first neutral line has a crawling portion that extends in a circumferential direction at an upper portion of a coil at a coil end,
the crawling portion has an axial stepped portion,
the first neutral line has an acute-angle axially-folded and bent portion and an axially-bent stepped portion, and
the output line which is led out from an innermost row of the slot passes under the first neutral line through a space formed: i) under the axially-bent stepped portion, and ii) by the first neutral line at a location thereof that is between the acute-angle axially-folded and bent portion and the axially-bent stepped portion.
2. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 1 , wherein
the output line passes under the first neutral line in the axial direction, whereby the output line is tacked without being fixed with thread or the like.
3. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 1 , further comprising:
first and second slots into which the first neutral line is inserted and a third slot into which a second neutral line is inserted are arranged circumferentially in the first slot, the third slot, and the second slot in this order.
4. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 3 , wherein
the first, second, and third slots are arranged at equal slot pitches.
5. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 4 , wherein
a connection portion of the first neutral line and a connection portion of the second neutral line are arranged side by side in the axial direction of a stator iron core.
6. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 3 , wherein
an insulating coating film is removed from connection portions of the first and second neutral lines.
7. The stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 6 , wherein
the connection portions of the first and second neutral lines connected with each other are covered by an insulating material.
8. An electric rotating machine comprising:
the stator of the electric rotating machine according to claim 1 ; and
a rotor.
