Abstract

A stator wherein the lead wire portion includes a root portion connected to the slot housed portion, disposed in a same-phase region which overlaps the coil end portion of the coil of a same phase as seen in the center axis direction, and disposed on an axially inner side with respect to the coil end portion, and a draw-out portion that projects in the center axis direction from a power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward an axially outer side with respect to the coil end portion in the same-phase region.

Claims (37)

1. A stator comprising:

a stator core; and

a plurality of coils that each include a coil end portion that projects from an end surface of the stator core in a center axis direction, a slot housed portion disposed in a plurality of slots of the stator core, and a lead wire portion that connects between the slot housed portion and a power source portion, wherein

the lead wire portion includes a root portion connected to the slot housed portion, disposed in a same-phase region which overlaps the coil end portion of the coil of a same phase as seen in the center axis direction, and disposed on an axially inner side of the coil end portion, and a draw-out portion that projects in the center axis direction from a power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward an axially outer side of the coil end portion in the same-phase region.

2. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein:

the root portion is disposed on an inner peripheral side of an outermost conductor of the coil end portion of the coil of the same phase which is wound to have the slot housed portion and the coil end portion; and

the draw-out portion is disposed so as to project in the center axis direction from the power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward the axially outer side of the coil end portion in the same-phase region, so as to intersect the coil end portion of the coil of the same phase.

3. The stator according to claim 2 , wherein:

the root portion is disposed on an inner peripheral side of an outermost conductor of the coil end portion of the coil of the root portion itself which is wound to have the slot housed portion and the coil end portion; and

the draw-out portion is disposed so as to project in the center axis direction from the power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward the axially outer side of the coil end portion in the same-phase region, so as to intersect the coil end portion of the coil of the draw-out portion itself.

4. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein:

the coils are each disposed adjacent to a different coil of the same phase; and

the draw-out portion is disposed so as to project in the center axis direction from the power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward the axially outer side of the coil end portion at a position overlapping the coil end portion of the coil of the draw-out portion itself or the coil end portion of the adjacent coil in the same-phase region as seen in the center axis direction.

5. The stator according to claim 4 , wherein

the draw-out portion is disposed so as to project in the center axis direction from the power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward the axially outer side of the coil end portion via a boundary portion, in a circumferential direction, between the coil end portion of the coil of the draw-out portion itself and the coil end portion of the adjacent coil of the same phase in the same-phase region.

6. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein:

the lead wire portion includes a routed portion connected to a power source portion-side end portion of the draw-out portion and routed on the axially outer side of the coil end portion; and

the draw-out portion is disposed in the same-phase region from the power source portion-side end portion of the root portion to the power source portion-side end portion of the draw-out portion, which is connected to the routed portion, as seen in the center axis direction.

7. The stator according to claim 6 , further comprising a lead wire portion holding member provided on the axially outer side of the coil end portion and including a holding portion that holds the routed portion, wherein:

the lead wire portion holding member includes a guide portion that guides the power source portion-side end portion of the draw-out portion to the holding portion; and

the guide portion is disposed at a position overlapping the coil end portion of the same phase as that of the draw-out portion to be guided as seen in the center axis direction.

8. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein:

the coils are coaxially wound coils each formed by winding a conductor a plurality of times around a first slot, of the plurality of slots, and a second slot disposed away from the first slot in a circumferential direction of the stator core;

the root portion of the lead wire portion, which is a portion of the conductor of the coaxially wound coil on one end side, is wound on an inner peripheral side of an outermost periphery of the coil end portion of the coaxially wound coil of the root portion itself; and

a neutral point-side wire portion, which is a portion of the conductor of the coaxially wound coil on the other end side, is drawn out from one side in a radial direction of the stator core in the coaxially wound coil.

9. The stator according to claim 8 , wherein:

the coaxially wound coils include first coaxially wound coils and second coaxially wound coils wound in a direction opposite to a direction in which the first coaxially wound coils are wound; and

the neutral point-side wire portion of each of the first coaxially wound coils and the second coaxially wound coils is drawn out from the one side in the radial direction.

10. The stator according to claim 8 , wherein

the neutral point-side wire portion is drawn out from a radially outer side of the stator core.

11. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein

the coils are two-layer distributed wound coils each disposed over a plurality of teeth that constitute the slots, disposed together with a different coil in the same slot, and disposed adjacent to the different coil in a radial direction.

12. A stator coil comprising:

a coil end portion that projects from an end surface of a stator core in a center axis direction;

a slot housed portion disposed in a plurality of slots of the stator core; and

a lead wire portion that connects between the slot housed portion and a power source portion, wherein

the lead wire portion includes a root portion connected to the slot housed portion, disposed in a same-phase region which overlaps the coil end portion of the coil of a same phase as seen in the center axis direction, and disposed on an axially inner side of the coil end portion, and a draw-out portion that projects in the center axis direction from a power source portion-side end portion of the root portion toward an axially outer side of the coil end portion of the coil of the same phase in the same-phase region.
