Abstract

A stator for a rotary electric machine, having a stator mass that has slots in which electrical conductors introduced axially into the slots are housed, each of the slots having a continuously closed contour.

Claims (15)

1. A rotary electric machine having a stator and a permanent magnet rotor, the stator having a stator mass that has slots in which electrical conductors introduced axially into the slots are housed, each of the slots having a continuously closed contour,

wherein the stator mass comprises teeth formed between the slots, which are connected to one another on a side of an air gap by bridges of material and on an opposite side by a yoke, the yoke and the teeth being in one piece.

2. The machine of claim 1 , wherein the bridges of material comprise at least one localized narrowing formed by at least one groove.

3. The machine of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductors are disposed in the slots in a distributed manner.

4. The machine of claim 1 , wherein the electrical conductors comprise a transverse section of a rectangular overall shape.

5. The machine of claim 1 , wherein each slot comprises two to eight electrical conductors.

6. The machine of claim 1 , wherein at least one slot comprises mutually parallel radial edges.

7. The machine of claim 1 , wherein at least one slot comprises a transverse section of rectangular or hexagonal shape.

8. The machine of claim 1 , further comprising at least one tooth having a transverse section of trapezoidal overall shape.

9. The machine of claim 1 , wherein the stator mass comprises stacked magnetic laminations, with the slots formed in the stator mass by cutting the magnetic laminations of the stator mass.

10. The machine of claim 1 , wherein the stator mass is produced at least partially by an additive manufacturing technique.

11. A rotary electric machine having a stator and a permanent magnet rotor, the stator having a stator mass that has slots in which electrical conductors introduced axially into the slots are housed, each of the slots having a continuously closed contour, wherein the electrical conductors comprise pins that are U-shaped or I-shaped.

12. A stator for a rotary electric machine, having a stator mass that has slots in which electrical conductors introduced axially into the slots are housed, each of the slots having a continuously closed contour, wherein the stator mass comprises teeth formed between the slots, which are connected to one another on a side of an air gap by bridges of material and on an opposite side by a yoke, the yoke and the teeth being in one piece, at least one slot having a transverse section of hexagonal shape.

13. The rotary electric machine having a stator as claimed in claim 12 and a rotor.

14. A method for manufacturing a stator for a rotary electric machine, wherein electrical conductors are disposed in the slots of a stator mass of the stator by introducing them into the corresponding slots via one or both axial ends of the machine, wherein either a single U-shaped electrical conductor is disposed in two different non-consecutive slots of the stator mass of the stator, or two I-shaped electrical conductors previously introduced into two different non-consecutive slots of the stator mass of the stator are connected to one another.
