Abstract

An annular stator core in which, out of slots arrayed in a circumferential direction and extending in a radial direction, q slots are formed per pole and per phase; and stator windings, for respective phases, attached to the stator core. For each stator winding, q*n unit coils obtained by winding wire conductors at regular intervals into concentric winding forms are used to obtain n coils in each of which the q unit coils wound in a same direction are connected so as to be shifted from each other in the circumferential direction, and the stator winding is composed of two coil groups each obtained by joining the n/2 coils together. The two coil groups are connected in parallel to each other between power feed portions and neutral points, and two coils that are connected to the power feed portions are disposed so as to share the slot.

Claims (20)

1. A rotary electric machine comprising:

an annular stator core in which, out of slots arrayed in a circumferential direction and extending in a radial direction, q (“q” represents a natural number not less than 2) slots are formed per pole and per phase; and

stator windings, for respective phases, attached to the stator core, wherein

for the stator windings,

in each phase, q*n (“n” represents an even number not less than 4) unit coils obtained by winding wire conductors at regular intervals into concentric winding forms are used to obtain n coils in each of which the q unit coils wound in a same direction are connected so as to be shifted from each other in the circumferential direction, and the stator winding is composed of two coil groups each obtained by joining the n/2 coils together,

the coils composing the coil groups are arrayed so as to circle the slots of the annular stator core, and the coils adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction are joined together so as to share the slots, and

the two coil groups are connected in parallel to each other between power feed portions and neutral points, and two coils that are connected to the power feed portions among the coils composing the two coil groups are disposed so as to share the slot.

2. The rotary electric machine according to claim 1 , wherein

the coils adjacent to each other are disposed so as to share the same slots, and

insertion portions formed by the wire conductors which form two of the coils adjacent to each other, are alternately arranged in the slot.

3. A rotary electric machine comprising:

an annular stator core in which, out of slots arrayed in a circumferential direction and extending in a radial direction, q (“q” represents a natural number not less than 2) slots are formed per pole and per phase; and

stator windings, for respective phases, attached to the stator core, wherein

for each stator winding,

2*q*n (“n” represents an even number not less than 4) unit coils obtained by winding wire conductors at regular intervals into concentric winding forms are used to obtain 2*n coils in each of which the q unit coils wound in a same direction are connected so as to be shifted from each other in the circumferential direction, and the stator winding is composed of four coil groups each obtained by joining the n/2 coils together,

the coils composing the coil groups are arrayed so as to circle the slots of the annular stator core, and the coils adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction are joined together so as to share the slots, and

the four coil groups are connected in parallel to each other between power feed portions and neutral points, and, among two of the coil groups respectively connected to two of the power feed portions, two coils that are connected to the power feed portions are disposed so as to share the slot.

4. The rotary electric machine according to claim 3 , wherein

the coils adjacent to each other are disposed so as to share the same slots, and

insertion portions formed by the wire conductors which form two of the coils adjacent to each other, are alternately arranged in the slot.
