Abstract: Core slots are provided in an outer circumferential side of a rotor core and extend in an axial direction of a rotor shaft. A rotor conductor is a rod-shaped conductor inserted in each of the slots, and after insertion of the rotor conductor in each slot, a flared portion is formed flaring in a slot-transverse direction, and a propping-apart force occurring between the flared portion and both side wall surfaces of the slot fixes the rotor conductor to the slot. In an inner wall of an outer circumferential side of each slot abutting the flared portion, an unevenness is arranged along the axial direction of the rotor shaft.

Abstract: According to the present invention, the pin, which is provided on the link member that links the lock lever and the electromagnetic solenoid, can be removed from both sides of the power supply connector. Thus, the pin can be removed from the side that allows workspace, regardless of the side on which the openable lid of the power reception connector is positioned. Thus, even when the electromagnetic solenoid malfunctions, the pin can be extracted with certainty, and the lock can be released. Thus, the power supply connector can be pulled out from the power reception connector. Further, because a cover is provided on the grasping member, the pin extraction workability is also excellent.

Abstract: A phase compensator having a biaxial birefringent component (40) is fabricated by oblique deposition of an inorganic material on a base plate (69). A polar angle of an evaporation path of the inorganic material is controlled in a predetermined angular range to a surface normal of the base plate (69). In the oblique deposition process, the base plate (69) is oscillated in a horizontal direction. The phase compensator is arranged such that its slow axis (L4) is perpendicular to a slow axis (L3) of tilt components (24a, 24b) in a liquid crystal panel (20), and that an index ellipsoid (41) is tilted in an opposite direction to a tilt direction of the tilt components (24a, 24b).
