Rotating electric machine stator
View Patent ↗A stator of a rotating electric machine includes a stator core, a plurality of insulators and a plurality of concentrated winding coils. The stator core includes an annular yoke and a plurality of teeth. The insulators are located along outer peripheral wall surfaces of the teeth. Each of the insulators includes a plurality of first surfaces and a plurality of second surfaces. The second surfaces connect the first surfaces. The coils are fitted on the teeth on which the insulators have been placed from a radially inner side thereof. The first surfaces of each of the insulators are in contact with inner peripheral surfaces of the coil that is placed on the outer periphery of the insulator.
1. A stator for a rotating electric machine, the stator comprising:
a stator core including:
an annular yoke; and
teeth that protrude radially inward from the yoke, the teeth being arranged circumferentially, the teeth including a first tooth and a second tooth that is adjacent to the first tooth, a slot being defined between the first tooth and the second tooth;
insulators, each of the insulators being located along outer peripheral wall surface of each of the teeth, each of the insulators including:
first surfaces; and
second surfaces that connect the first surfaces; and
coils that are formed by concentrated winding, each of the coils being fitted on each of the teeth on which the insulator has been placed from a radially inner side,
wherein the insulators are in contact with each of the coils that is placed on the outer periphery of each of the insulators only by contact between the first surfaces and inner peripheral surfaces of the coils,
an angle between each of the first surfaces and each of the second surfaces is an obtuse angle, and
each of the second surfaces is spaced apart from the inner peripheral surfaces of the coils in a direction perpendicular to the inner peripheral surfaces of the coils.
2. The stator according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second surfaces of each of the insulators that is placed on the first tooth are parallel to outer peripheral surface of each of the coils that is placed on the second tooth.
3. The stator according to claim 1 ,
wherein a first inclination angle is set with an inclination relative to a second inclination angle,
the first inclination angle is an inclination angle between each of the first surfaces and each of the second surfaces of each of the insulators that is placed on the first tooth,
the second inclination angle is an inclination angle between a center line of the first tooth and a center line of the second tooth, and
the center line of the first tooth and the center line of the second tooth are lines that extend radially.
4. The stator according to claim 1 ,
wherein the inner peripheral surface of one turn of each of the coils is partially in contact with the first surface and the other part of the inner peripheral surface is apart from the second surface.
