Stator for rotating electrical machine and rotating electrical machine
A stator for a rotating electrical machine includes a stator core, two insulators, and conductive wires forming coils. At least one of the insulators includes guide grooves and through-grooves. The through-grooves include at least two first grooves each of which divides at least two of the guide grooves. Each of the first grooves has a recess that is recessed in the circumferential direction with respect to the rest of the first groove at a portion that divides one of the at least two guide grooves divided by the first groove. The conductive wires extending through the corresponding through-grooves and outward in the radial direction of the insulator base are guided in the circumferential direction by the corresponding guide grooves. The conductive wires extend through the recesses in the corresponding first grooves.
1. A stator for a rotating electrical machine, comprising:
a stator core having an annular yoke and a plurality of teeth extending in a radial direction from an inner circumferential surface of the yoke;
two insulators disposed on opposite end faces in an axial direction of the stator core, wherein
each of the insulators includes
an annular insulator base that contacts the yoke, and
a plurality of insulator extending portions that extend in the radial direction from an inner circumferential surface of the insulator base and respectively contact the teeth, and
the insulator base has a first end face that contacts the yoke and a second end face opposite to the first end face in the axial direction; and
a plurality of conductive wires that form a plurality of coils by being wound around the teeth and the insulator extending portions, wherein
at least one of the insulators includes
a plurality of guide grooves that extend in a circumferential direction in an outer circumferential surface of the insulator base and thus guide the corresponding conductive wires in the circumferential direction, and
a plurality of through-grooves that extend in the radial direction through the insulator base and open in the second end face of the insulator base in a manner dividing at least one of the guide grooves in the circumferential direction,
the through-grooves include at least two first grooves each of which divides at least two of the guide grooves, wherein each of the first grooves has a recess that is recessed in the circumferential direction with respect to the rest of the first groove at a portion that divides one of the at least two guide grooves divided by the first groove, and
the conductive wires extending through the corresponding through-grooves and outward in the radial direction of the insulator base are guided in the circumferential direction by the corresponding guide grooves, and the conductive wires extend through the recesses in the corresponding first grooves, wherein
each of the conductive wires includes a connecting wire that connects two of the coils of a same phase that are closest to each other in the circumferential direction,
the connecting wire passes through two of the through-grooves and extends in the section of the guide groove between the two through-grooves, and
the connecting wire extends through the recess in the first groove.
2. The stator according to claim 1 , wherein the recess of each first groove is recessed to the opposite sides in the circumferential direction with respect to the rest of the first groove.
3. A rotating electrical machine comprising:
a rotor; and
the stator according to claim 1 .
