  • Patent number: 6972505
    Abstract: A rotating electrical machine and method for making the machine, where the machine includes a high-voltage stator winding and elongated support devices for supporting the winding. The machine and method employ an arrangement of cable that is made of inner conductive strands, covered with a first semiconducting layer, which is covered with an insulating layer, which is covered with a second semiconducting layer. The cable is wound in slots in the stator such that separate cable lead-throughs are positioned in specific arrangements with respect to each other and in slots of the stator. The arrangement of the cable in the stator protects the integrity of the respective components in the cable and particularly the second semiconducting layer.

  • Patent number: 6825585
    Abstract: An end plate (1, 11) for a stator (31) wound with a cable in a rotating electric machine, the plate (1, 11) being provided with axially running winding slots (2) corresponding to the stator (31) and axially running apertures (19, 21, 22, 26) for cooling tubes corresponding to the stator (31), and that the plate (1, 11) is provided with at least one bending member (20, 23, 27) pre-shaped in the plate (1, 11) for cooling tubes (33) insertable into the cooling-tube apertures (19, 21, 22, 26) and also a procedure for supporting and protecting a cooling tube in a first axially running aperture at its exit from a stator in a rotating electric machine, whereby an end plate provided with bending members is applied at the end of the stator, the cooling tube being bent around the bending member before continuing, either by being fitted in a second axially running aperture in the stator or for extension out of the stator.

  • Publication number: 20020153800
    Abstract: In the stator winding in a rotating electric machine the winding is situated in radial slots (111) in the stator (106). According to the invention the winding consists of a cable which forms layers at different radial distances from the air gap (108) between the rotor (107) and the stator (106). The part of the cable (101) that passes to and fro once through the stator between different layers forms a coil (113) with an arcshaped coil end protruding from each end surface (114) of the stator (106). The coils (113) are divided into coil group parts. All coils (113) in the same coil group part are arranged axially, one outside the other with substantially coinciding centres and with successively increasing diameters. The number of slots (111) that are bridged by the coils (113) successively increases within the coil group part.

  • Publication number: 20020047441
    Abstract: A rotating electric machine and method for manufacturing the same in which a high-voltage cable is wound in a stator so as to make a winding. A feature of the high-voltage cable is that the cable includes an inner semiconducting layer, a solid insulation material, and an outer semiconducting layer. A casting compound is supplied in a slot that holds the cable in the stator so as to avoid damaging an outer surface of the cable.
