Rotating electric machine and cooling system for the rotating electric machine
View Patent ↗Heat discharging property of the stator coil end is improved effectively in a rotating electric machine. A motor as the rotating electric machine includes a stator and a rotor. The stator includes a stator core and resin mold coil ends provided on both axial ends thereof. Column-shaped projections projecting in the axial direction are provided on axial side surfaces of resin mold coil ends at a plurality of positions. Cooling oil supplied from above the resin mold coil ends effectively cools the resin mold coil ends.
1. A rotating electric machine comprising:
a rotor; and
a stator having a stator coil end, the stator coil end allowing flow of a cooling oil on a surface thereof during operation, wherein
the stator coil end is a resin mold coil end including a coil end body formed of axial end portions of coils which constitute the stator and resin which embeds the coil end body,
the resin mold coil end includes a plurality of column-shaped projections provided on the surface thereof, and
the plurality of projections project along the axial direction from locations distanced in the radial direction of an axial outer side surface of the resin mold coil end at a plurality of positions along the circumferential direction.
2. A cooling system for a rotating electric machine comprising:
the rotating electric machine according to claim 1 ; and
a cooling oil supply portion configured to supply the cooling oil to the rotating electric machine.
3. A rotating electric machine comprising:
a rotor; and
a stator having a stator coil end, the stator coil end allowing flow of a cooling oil on a surface thereof during operation, wherein
the stator coil end is a resin mold coil end including a coil end body formed of axial end portions of coils which constitute the stator and resin which embeds the coil end body,
the resin mold coil end includes a plurality of column-shaped projections provided on the surface thereof, and
the plurality of projections project along the radial direction or in a direction inclined with respect to the radial direction from locations distanced in the axial direction of an outer peripheral surface of the resin mold coil end at a plurality of positions along the circumferential direction.
4. A cooling system for a rotating electric machine comprising:
the rotating electric machine according to claim 3 ; and
a cooling oil supply portion configured to supply the cooling oil to the rotating electric machine.
