Abstract

Disclosed is a stator capable of reducing stress generated in the resin mold of the stator. A stator is provided with a coil formed by coiling a flat conductor, a split stator core provided with a teeth unit for inserting the coil, and a resin mold, which has resin covering the coil ends of the coil inserted into the split stator core. In the stator, an insulator is formed between the split stator core and the coil by way of insert molding, and the resin mold has a cavity, formed in the radial direction of the stator, in between the coil and the end face of the split stator core.

Claims (18)

1. A stator including a coil formed by winding a conductor, a stator core provided with a teeth on which the coil is mounted, and a resin molded part covering a coil end portion of the coil mounted on the stator core with resin,

wherein an insulator is formed and provided by insert molding between the stator core and the coil, and

wherein the resin molded part includes a cavity formed through in a radial direction and fully enclosed in both circumferential and axial directions of the stator core, the cavity serving as a stress relaxing section between the coil and an end face of the stator core to relax stress generated in the resin molded part caused by heat influence in a usage environment, and

wherein the insulator includes an end face wall covering the end face of the stator core, the end face wall is provided with a breakable groove formed along the cavity to break the insulator.

2. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein, the stator core consists of laminated electromagnetic steel sheets and one of the sheets located in the end face of the stator core has a teeth part having a width narrower than other sheets in a circumferential direction of the stator core.

3. The stator according to claim 2 , wherein the insulator includes a pair of support walls supporting the coil, and the cavity is formed between the pair of support walls.

4. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein the insulator includes a pair of support walls supporting the coil, and the cavity is formed between the pair of support walls.

5. A stator including a coil formed by winding a conductor, a stator core provided with teeth on which the coil is mounted, and a resin molded part covering a coil end portion of the coil mounted on the stator core with resin,

wherein an insulator is formed and provided by insert molding between the stator core and the coil, and

wherein the resin molded part includes a cavity formed through in a radial direction and fully enclosed in both circumferential and axial directions of the stator core, the cavity serving as a stress relaxing section between the coil and an end face of the stator core to relax stress generated in the resin molded part caused by heat influence in a usage environment, and

wherein the insulator is formed with a rib on an end face side of the stator core, the rib extending from a side wall covering a side surface of the teeth and along the end face of the stator core.

6. The stator according to claim 5 , wherein, the stator core consists of laminated electromagnetic steel sheets and one of the sheets located in the end face of the stator core has a teeth part of the teeth having a width narrower than other sheets in a circumferential direction of the stator core.

7. The stator according to claim 6 , wherein the insulator includes a pair of support walls supporting the coil, and the cavity is formed between the pair of support walls.

8. The stator according to claim 5 , wherein the insulator includes a pair of support walls supporting the coil, and the cavity is formed between the pair of support walls.

9. A stator including a coil formed by winding a conductor, a stator core provided with teeth on which the coil is mounted, and a resin molded part covering a coil end portion of the coil mounted on the stator core with resin,

wherein an insulator is formed and provided by insert molding between the stator core and the coil, and

wherein the resin molded part includes a cavity formed through in a radial direction and fully enclosed in both circumferential and axial directions of the stator core, the cavity serving as a stress relaxing section between the coil and an end face of the stator core to relax stress generated in the resin molded part caused by heat influence in a usage environment, and

wherein the insulator includes a pair of support walls supporting the coil, and the cavity is formed between the pair of support walls.
