Motor stator
An insulator includes an extended portion extended along the axial direction of a motor stator from an annular member. The extended portion includes at least one protruding portion protruding in the outer-diameter direction from a guide surface that guides a winding in the circumferential direction of a motor stator. This protruding portion includes an abutting surface capable of abutting the winding guided by the guide surface. The abutting surface includes a slant portion that comes close to the annular member toward the outer-diameter direction. The slant portion is capable of abutting a semicircular portion of the winding with the circular cross-sectional shape at the outer-diameter side.
1. A motor stator comprising:
a core;
an insulator covering the core; and
a coil formed by a winding wound around the insulator,
wherein the core comprises: an annular yoke; and a tooth extended from the yoke in an inner-diameter direction of the motor stator,
wherein the insulator comprises: an annular member covering the yoke; a wind portion which covers the tooth and around which the winding is wound; and an extended portion extended from the annular member along an axial direction of the motor stator,
wherein the extended portion comprises at least one protruding portion that protrudes in an outer-diameter direction from a guide surface which guides the winding in a circumferential direction of the motor stator,
wherein the protruding portion comprises an abutting surface capable of abutting the winding guided by the guide surface,
wherein the abutting surface comprises a slant portion that becomes close to the annular member toward the outer-diameter direction, and
wherein the slant portion is capable of abutting any portion of a half of the winding at an outer-diameter side.
2. The motor stator according to claim 1 , wherein:
a terminal is attached to a tip surface of the extended portion;
the terminal comprises a connection portion capable of being electrically connected to the winding guided by the guide surface;
the two protruding portions adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction are provided on the guide surface of the extended portion; and
as viewed from the axial direction of the motor stator, the connection portion is located between the two protruding portions in the circumferential direction.
