Abstract: Provided is a multi-turn sequential segment joining stator coil capable of suppressing the differences in electromotive voltage between parallel circuits and of carrying a large current. Partial coils are accommodated in a plurality of continuous conductor accommodation positions of different slots. The partial coils accommodated in the same slot are separately connected in series to each other to produce parallel coils, and the produced parallel coils are connected in parallel with each other. This configuration enables the production of a sequential segment joining stator coil type electric rotating machine with a size-reduced head-side coil end.

Abstract: A compact and reliable structure of a multi-rotor synchronous machine which may be employed as a generator/motor for automotive vehicles is provided. The machine includes an outer rotor having permanent magnets, an inner rotor having permanent magnets disposed to be rotatable relative to the outer rotor, a stator core having armature coils interlinking with field magnetic fluxes produced by the outer and inner rotors, and a rotor-to-rotor relative rotation controlling mechanism. A relative angle between the outer and inner rotors is controlled within a given angular range by controlling the phase and quantity of current flowing through the armature coils to rotate the inner rotor relative to the outer rotor through the rotor-to-rotor relative rotation controlling mechanism, thereby changing the magnetic fluxes interlinking with the armature coils as needed.

Abstract: The present invention relates an electric rotating machine comprising a plurality of phase coils each composed of a plurality of partial coils each made by connecting segments each composed of an inside-slot conductor portion to be accommodated in each of slots of each of phase slot groups made in a stator core and an outside-slot conductor portion protruding from the slot. Of the plurality of partial coils constituting each of the phase coils, in each of the partial coils to be connected to an input/output terminal, its inside-slot conductor portion is accommodated in the slot other than end portions of the phase slot group in a circumferential direction of the stator core. This reduces the electric potential difference between the outside-slot conductor portion continuing thereinto and the outside-slot conductor portion of an adjacent phase coil, thereby improving the insulating performance.

Each layer coil is constituted by serially connecting these partial coils. Respective layer coils are connected in parallel to each other to form a phase winding.

Abstract: An accessory device driving apparatus is disposed between an internal combustion engine and an accessory device of a vehicle. The driving apparatus is constructed as a coaxial dual rotor-type electric motor/generator that has two electromagnetically induction-coupled rotors to operate as a motor and a generator. One rotor is coupled with the engine to rotate at a speed higher than that of the engine, and the other rotor is coupled with the accessory device to rotate at a speed higher than that of the accessory device. The rotors are restricted from rotating in a reverse direction opposite a direction of forward rotation of the engine by one-way clutches, respectively.

A first rotor forming the first dynamo-electrical machine together with a second rotor is connected to either one of a front driving shaft and rear driving shaft. A second rotor forming the second dynamo-electrical machine together with a stator is connected to another one of the front driving shaft and rear driving shaft. As a result, a torque generated by the first dynamo-electric machine is transmitted to either one of the front and rear driving shafts, connected to the first rotor. A torque which subtracts a reaction torque caused by the torque generated by the first dynamo-electric machine from a torque generated by the second dynamo-electric machine is transmitted to another one of the front and rear driving shafts, connected to the second rotor.

Abstract: A rotational power converter is composed of a stator fixed to a cylindrical housing and a first rotor and a second rotor rotatably supported in the housing. The first rotor is driven by an internal combustion engine, and electric power is supplied to the stator from a battery, forming a rotating magnetic field in the stator. Rotational power is electromagnetically transferred from the first rotor to the second rotor that is connected to driving wheels of a vehicle. The amount of the rotational power of the second rotor is adjusted by controlling electric current supplied to the stator. The battery either supplies power or receives power according to the amount of the rotational power of the second rotor. Since the electric current is supplied only to the stator fixed in the housing, no electric feeder having slip-rings and brushes is necessary. Accordingly, the rotational power converter is made small in size and its reliability is improved.
