Stator and rotating electrical machine including the same
A stator reducing a coil end height without interference between conductor segments and without damage to an insulating coating. Each conductor segment includes linear parts inserted in slots formed in a stator core and different in circumferential direction, inclined parts inclined and extending from respective end parts of the linear parts toward a center part so as to project toward the outside in an axis direction from an axis-direction end surface of the core, and a projecting curve part connecting apical ends of the inclined parts to each other and curves and projects toward the outside in the axis direction. Connection parts between the linear parts and the inclined parts and a curved part of the projecting curve part are all bent parts having the same bend radius of minimum R, which has a size equal to or more than a sheet width of a conductor strand.
1. A stator comprising:
a stator core having a plurality of slots in a circumferential direction; and
a plurality of stator windings placed in the plurality of slots, each of the plurality of stator windings is configured by bonding end parts of a plurality of conductor segments each of which is obtained by forming a conductor strand having a substantially rectangular cross section into a substantially U shape, wherein
each of the plurality of conductor segments includes a pair of linear parts to be inserted in a pair of slots formed in the stator core and different in the circumferential direction, a pair of inclined parts that is inclined and extends from end parts on an opposite side of the respective end parts of the pair of linear parts in an axis direction toward a center part so as to project toward the outside in the axis direction from an axis-direction end surface of the stator core, a projecting curve part that connects apical ends of the pair of inclined parts to each other and curves and projects toward the outside in the axis direction, and a crank-shaped part provided in the projecting curve part, and
at least connection parts between the respective pair of linear parts and the respective pair of inclined parts and a curved part of the projecting curve part are all bent parts having the same bend radius of minimum R, which has a size equal to or more than a sheet width of the conductor strand.
2. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein
connection parts between the apical ends of the respective pair of inclined parts and the projecting curve part are bent parts having the bend radius of the minimum R.
3. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein
the projecting curve part includes a pair of line parts that linearly extends toward the outside in the axis direction from the apical ends of the respective pair of inclined parts, and the curved part is a curve part that connects apical ends of the pair of line parts to each other and curves and projects toward the outside in the axis direction.
4. The stator according to claim 3 , wherein
connection parts between the apical ends of the respective pair of inclined parts and the respective pair of line parts are bent parts having the bend radius of the minimum R.
