Abstract

Provided is a method of manufacturing a laminated core for stably fixing a thin core piece while suppressing reduction in production efficiency, and an inner core and an outer core with core pieces stably fixed. A method of manufacturing a laminated core for manufacturing an inner core 10 includes: a step A of laminating a plurality of core pieces 11 and temporarily fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece 11 to obtain a core piece group 16 ; a step B of fitting the core piece group 16 to a holder 17 ; a step C of applying an uncured curable resin P to an outer peripheral region of the core piece group 16 ; and a step D of curing the curable resin P applied to the core piece group 16 and fully fixing each of the core pieces 11 to another core piece 11.

Claims (26)

1. A method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core, comprising:

a step A of laminating a plurality of core pieces of an inner rotor core or inner stator core and temporarily fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece to obtain a core piece group;

a step B of fitting, in a state in which an axial center of the core piece group is penetrated by a holding member of a holder, the core piece group to the holder;

a step C of applying, in a state in which a part of an outer peripheral region of the core piece group is immersed in a resin reservoir containing an uncured curable resin, the uncured curable resin to the outer peripheral region at which the curable resin enters from the outer peripheral region to a position at a distance of 10% or more of a radial length of the core piece by rotating the holding member to rotate the core piece group around the axial center; and

a step D of curing the curable resin applied to the core piece group of the inner rotor core or inner stator core and fully fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece.

2. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein rotation of the core piece group in the step C is performed in a state in which the holding member is not immersed in the resin reservoir.

3. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein before the step D, a part of the curable resin applied to the core piece group is removed by rotating the core piece group.

4. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein a region of the core piece group on which the curable resin is to be applied is cleaned in an intervening period between the steps B and C.

5. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein a plurality of the core piece groups is fitted to the holder in a state in which the core piece groups are arranged coaxially with spacers arranged between adjacent core piece groups.

6. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 5 , wherein the holder includes a fixing member that clamps the plurality of core piece groups fitted to the holder from both sides.

7. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein the curable resin the curable resin is a thermosetting resin.

8. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 5 , wherein rotation of the core piece groups in the step C is performed in a state in which the spacers are is not immersed in the resin reservoir.

9. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein the thickness of each core piece is 200 μm or less.

10. The method of manufacturing a laminated inner rotor core or inner stator core according to claim 1 , wherein each core piece has a central annular portion and a plurality of teeth, and wherein the plurality of teeth are arranged radially around the central annular portion.

11. A method of manufacturing an inner rotor core or inner stator core, the method comprising:

laminating a plurality of core pieces of an inner rotor core or inner stator core and temporarily fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece to obtain a core piece group;

fitting, in a state in which an axial center of the core piece group is penetrated by a holding member of a holder, the core piece group to the holder;

applying, in a state in which a part of an outer peripheral region of the core piece group is immersed in a resin reservoir containing a liquid consisting of an uncured curable resin, the uncured curable resin to the outer peripheral region by contacting a plurality of magnetic pole portions in each of the core pieces with the uncured curable resin by rotating the holding member to rotate the core piece group around the axial center; and

curing the curable resin applied to the core piece group of the inner rotor core or inner stator core and fully fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece.

12. A method of manufacturing a laminated inner core, comprising:

a step A of laminating a plurality of core pieces and temporarily fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece to obtain a core piece group;

a step B of fitting, in a state in which an axial center of the core piece group is penetrated by a holding member of a holder, the core piece group to the holder;

a step C of applying, in a state in which a part of an outer peripheral region of the core piece group is immersed in a resin reservoir containing an uncured curable resin, the uncured curable resin to the outer peripheral region by rotating the holding member to rotate the core piece group around the axial center; and

a step D of curing the curable resin applied to the core piece group and fully fixing each of the core pieces to another core piece,

wherein a plurality of the core piece groups is fitted to the holder in a state in which the core piece groups are arranged coaxially with spacers arranged between adjacent core piece groups, and

wherein rotation of the core piece groups in the step C is performed in a state in which the spacers are not immersed in the resin reservoir.
