Abstract

An end housing portion of a rotating electric machine is partitioned by a partition plate into a first space on the side where a cooling cooler is present and a second space on the side where a coil end portion is present. The partition plate has, at a radially outer end, an intake port that opens in the circumferential direction. A shield plate which is a magnetically high-conductive metal plate is provided so as to be connected to the radially inner side from the intake port of the partition plate and arranged along the circumferential direction of the frame. A ventilation path D is formed between the shield plate and the frame so as to communicate with the intake port.

Claims (12)

1. A rotating electric machine comprising:

a rotor having a columnar rotor core which is fixed to a shaft and generates a magnetic field;

a stator provided so as to surround a circumference of the rotor core, and composed of a stator core and a coil wound through slots of the stator core; and

a frame storing the stator and the rotor, wherein

where a space in which a coil end portion of the coil extending in an axial direction from the stator core is surrounded by the frame and an axial-direction end surface of the stator core is defined as an end housing portion,

the end housing portion is partitioned by a partition plate into a first space on a side where a cooler for cooling a cooling gas circulating in the rotating electric machine is present, and a second space on a side where the coil end portion is present,

the partition plate has, at a radially outer end, an intake port that opens in a circumferential direction,

a shield plate which is a magnetically high-conductive metal plate is provided so as to be connected to a radially inner side from the intake port of the partition plate and arranged along the circumferential direction of the frame, and

a ventilation path is formed between the shield plate and the frame so as to communicate with the intake port.

2. The rotating electric machine according to claim 1 , wherein

the shield plate is attached to the frame by a stay, and

the stay has a ventilation port that opens in the circumferential direction.
