Stator for rotating electric machine having coil support members for stator core
This object is to secure a creepage insulation distance and improve insulation reliability. A stator core is formed as a housing, and is configured such that storage spaces for storing a plurality of segment coils are formed on an inner circumferential side of the housing in an axial direction of the housing and a plurality of the storage spaces is formed at intervals on the inner circumferential side of the housing. A plurality of coil support members is formed as annular members, and supports the plurality of segment coils. The coil support members each include a plurality of through-holes for inserting the segment coils, which is openings connected to the storage spaces, are separately disposed at both ends of the stator core in the axial direction, and each cover the inner circumferential side of the end portion of the stator core in the axial direction.

a stator core that is formed as a housing, and is configured such that storage spaces for storing a plurality of segment coils are formed on an inner circumferential side of the housing in an axial direction of the housing and the storage spaces are formed at intervals on the inner circumferential side of the housing; and
a coil support member that is formed as an annular member, and supports the plurality of segment coils,
wherein the coil support member includes a plurality of through-holes for inserting the segment coils, which are openings connected to the storage spaces, and the coil support member covers the inner circumferential side of an end portion of the stator core in the axial direction,
wherein each storage space includes a first space into which a designated number of segment coils as the segment coil are insertable and a second space which is communicatively connected to the first space and is a gap after the designated number of segment coils are inserted into the first space, and
the coil support member includes a protrusion portion that is insertable into a second space of the second spaces, which is formed on a radially inner circumferential side of the stator core, on a surface facing the end portion of the stator core in the axial direction.
