  • Patent number: 10103594
    Abstract: A stator of a rotary machine is provided with a first resin molded body, a second resin molded body and third resin molded bodies which electrically insulate a stator core and coils. The first resin molded body is attached to the stator core on a first side of a lamination direction in which steel sheets are laminated and the second resin molded body is attached to the stator core on a second side of the lamination direction. The third resin molded bodies have shapes extending along slot side surfaces and are provided in a state contacting with a predetermined region of the slot side. First slot side portions of the first resin molded body overlaps end portions of a first side of the third resin molded bodies and second slot side portions of the second molded body overlaps end portions of a second side of the third resin molded bodies.

  • Patent number: 7372183
    Abstract: A synchronous motor includes a stator, a rotor and permanent magnets. The rotor includes a rotor iron core that is rotatable relative to the stator, and conductor bars accommodated within corresponding slots in the rotor iron core. The conductor bars have their opposite ends short-circuited by respective shortcircuit rings to form a starter cage conductor. The rotor also has a plurality of magnet retaining holes defined therein, in which permanent magnets are embedded. The conductor bar holes are positioned in an axial direction and inwardly from the magnet retaining holes. The conductor bars within the holes protrude outwardly from an axial end of the rotor iron core to form projections for securing an end plate to the end of the rotor iron core, the end plate comprising a non-magnetizable material.
