Abstract

A surface insulating material includes three or more individual layers that are stacked on top of one another. The surface insulating material has a longitudinal extent, a transverse extent and a radial extent, in such a way that the individual layers have different dimensions at least in the transverse extent.

Claims (16)

1 . An electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of a dynamoelectrical machine, comprising:

a surface insulating material comprising three or more Individual layers that are stacked on top of one another, and having a longitudinal extent, a transverse extent and a radial extent, in such a way that the individual layers have different dimensions at least in the transverse extent, said surface Insulating material provided in surrounding relation to at least one active portion of the electrical conductor or pre-formed coil, which active portion is arranged in a slot of the dynamoelectrical machine, with the surface insulating material wrapped at least around the active portion in such a way that two ends of one of the individual layers form a gap in the transverse extent of the one of the individual layers in a region of a slot opening and at least one of the other individual layers occupies the gap so that there is an overlap on a narrow side of the electrical conductor or pre-formed coil, which narrow side points towards the slot opening, said overlap defined by a radial thickness which is smaller than a sum of the stacked layers of the surface insulating material lying radially one above the other on the narrow side.

2 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 1 , wherein the individual layers of the surface insulating material are adhesively bonded to one another.

3 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 1 , wherein the individual layers of the surface insulating material are each arranged asymmetrically and differently with respect to a reference line.

4 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 3 , wherein the reference line of the surface insulating material is arranged on a slot bottom on a side facing away from the slot opening.

5 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 4 , wherein the reference line of the surface insulating material is arranged centrally on the slot bottom.

6 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 1 , wherein the surface insulating material comprises predefined bending lines running in the longitudinal extent.

7 . The electrical conductor or pre-formed coil of claim 1 , comprising two of said narrow sides in opposite relationship and two opposite longitudinal sides.

8 . A dynamoelectrical machine, comprising an electrical conductor or pre-formed coil which comprises a surface insulating material comprising three or more individual layers that are stacked on top of one another, and having a longitudinal extent, a transverse extent and a radial extent, in such a way that the individual layers have different dimensions at least in the transverse extent, said surface insulating material provided in surrounding relation to at least one active portion of the electrical conductor or pre-formed coil, which active portion is arranged in a slot of the dynamoelectrical machine, with the surface insulating material wrapped at least around the active portion in such a way that two ends of one of the individual layers form a gap in the transverse extent of the one of the individual layers in a region of a slot opening and at least one of the other individual layers occupies the gap so that there is an overlap on a narrow side of the electrical conductor or pre-formed coil, which narrow side points towards the slot opening, said overlap defined by a radial thickness which is smaller than a sum of the stacked layers of the surface insulating material lying radially one above the other on the narrow side.

9 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 8 , wherein the electrical conductor or pre-formed coil includes two of said narrow sides in opposite relationship and two opposite longitudinal sides.

10 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 8 , wherein the individual layers of the surface insulating material are each arranged asymmetrically and differently with respect to a reference line.

11 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 10 , wherein the reference line of the surface insulating material is arranged on a slot bottom on a side facing away from the slot opening.

12 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 11 , wherein the reference line of the surface insulating material is arranged centrally on the slot bottom.

13 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 8 , wherein the individual layers of the surface insulating material are adhesively bonded to one another.

14 . The dynamoelectrical machine of claim 8 , wherein the surface insulating material comprises predefined bending lines running in the longitudinal extent.

15 . A wind turbine, comprising the dynamoelectrical machine as set forth in claim 8 .
