Patent number: 11936265Abstract: A rotating electrical machine includes an annular coil connection body provided coaxially with a stator. The coil connection body has, in a groove provided on a holder, an overhang portion for restricting an axial-direction movement of a terminal, and a positioning projection for restricting a radial-direction movement of the terminal. The positioning projection positions the terminal such that a part of the terminal overlaps the overhang portion in the axial direction. In this structure, when the terminal moves in a direction from a terminal holding portion toward a groove opening, the terminal comes into contact with a side surface of the overhang portion, whereby lifting and coming-off of the terminal can be prevented.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2018Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Takashi Yamamoto, Akira Kimishima, Toshihiro Matsunaga, Kengo Fujimoto
