Abstract

The invention relates to an end turn arrangement in a stator of a dynamoelectric machine. In order to reduce, in a simple fashion, the volume required for the end turns of the form-wound coils, the stator is formed of segments ( 1 ) that have a substantially circular arc-shaped cross-section and can be combined into a stator by adding one or more other segments ( 1 ) having the same design. Each segment ( 1 ) has recesses ( 6, 7 ), within which at least one first form-wound coil ( 3 ), which is bent outward in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns, and at least one second form-wound coil ( 4 ), which is bent inward in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns, are arranged in the form of a tiered winding.

Claims (17)

1. A segment for a ring-shaped stator of a dynamoelectric machine, said segment having a substantially circular arc-shaped cross section and constructed for attachment to other said segments to form a stator, said segment having slots and comprising:

at least one first form-wound coil arranged in the slots and bent outwards in a radial direction of the stator in a region of end turns; and

at least one second form-wound coil arranged in the slots and bent inwards in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns,

wherein the first and second form-wound coils are arranged in the form of a tiered winding, and

wherein the first and second form-wound coils are same design and laid in the slots in opposite directions.

2. The segment of claim 1 , further comprising at least one third non-bent form-wound coil which is arranged between the first and the second form-wound coils.

3. The segment of claim 1 , wherein each of the first and second form coils has a feed conductor and a return conductor, said feed conductor being arranged in a first one of the slots having slot flanks which are aligned parallel to slot flanks of a second one of the slots in which the return conductor is arranged.

4. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the slots point inwards as viewed in the radial direction of the stator.

5. The segment of claim 1 , wherein the slots point outwards as viewed in the radial direction of the stator.

6. A ring-shaped stator, comprising at least two segments, each said segment having a substantially circular arc-shaped cross section and having slots for arrangement of at least one first form-wound coil which is bent outwards in a radial direction of the stator in a region of end turns, and at least one second form-wound coil which is bent inwards in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns, wherein the first and second form-wound coils are arranged in the form of a tiered winding, and wherein the first and second form-wound coils are same design and laid in the slots in opposite directions.

7. The stator of claim 6 , wherein the segment includes at least one third non-bent form-wound coil which is arranged between the first and the second form-wound coils.

8. The stator of claim 6 , wherein each of the first and second form coils has a feed conductor and a return conductor, said feed conductor being arranged in a first one of the slots having slot flanks which are aligned parallel to slot flanks of a second one of the slots in which the return conductor is arranged.

9. The stator of claim 6 , wherein the slots point inwards as viewed in the radial direction of the stator.

10. The stator of claim 6 , wherein the slots point outwards as viewed in the radial direction of the stator.

11. An electrical machine, comprising a ring-shaped stator which includes at least two segments, each said segment having a substantially circular arc-shaped cross section and having slots for arrangement of at least one first form-wound coil which is bent outwards in a radial direction of the stator in a region of end turns, and at least one second form-wound coil which is bent inwards in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns, wherein the first and second form-wound coils are arranged in the form of a tiered winding, and wherein the first and second form-wound coils are of same design and laid in the slots in opposite directions.

12. The electric machine of claim 11 , constructed in the form of a wind power generator.

13. A wind turbine, comprising an electrical machine which includes a ring-shaped stator having at least two segments, each said segment having a substantially circular arc-shaped cross section and having slots for arrangement of at least one first form-wound coil which is bent outwards in a radial direction of the stator in a region of end turns, and at least one second form-wound coil which is bent inwards in the radial direction of the stator in the region of the end turns, wherein the first and second form-wound coils are arranged in the form of a tiered winding, and wherein the first and second form-wound coils are same design and laid in the slots in opposite directions.
