  • Patent number: 11955857
    Abstract: In this armature, a joint portion is insulated by a joint portion insulating member that has a sheet shape and that includes a facing surface insulating part that covers a facing surface of the joint portion and a circumferential surface insulating part that covers a circumferential surface of the joint portion. The facing surface insulating parts adjacent to each other in a radial direction are connected by the circumferential surface insulating part on one side or another side in the circumferential direction.

  • Patent number: 11496013
    Abstract: A rotating electrical machine stator and a method for manufacturing a rotating electrical machine stator with high productivity. A rotating electrical machine stator includes a stator core having a slot; and a coil having a leg part including a held-in-slot part held in the slot and a portion extending from the held-in-slot part, and a resin foam is provided between an inner surface of the slot and an outer surface of the held-in-slot part facing the inner surface of the slot. The coil is formed by joining together a plurality of segment conductors each having a joint part, and a conductive joint material is disposed between a pair of joint parts facing each other in the slot.
