  • Patent number: 11050317
    Abstract: It is realized that a shape of a bus ring is simplified, and a rotary electric machine is downsized. A coil connecting portion, which is protruded from bus ring maintaining portions to a shaft direction, is provided at a bus ring, and coil terminals are arranged in such a way that the coil terminals are protruded toward an outer side in a diameter direction with respect to the coil connecting portion, and the coil terminals and the coil connecting portion are connected by performing a resistance welding process. Thereby, it is not required that a slit and a bent portion or the like are formed at a tip of the bus ring, and a shape of the bus ring is simplified. Moreover, a welding board for a welding process and a chuck board for a connecting portion are not required, so that a rotary electric machine can be downsized.

  • Patent number: 11050312
    Abstract: A stator includes an iron core cylindrical part, multiple teeth, and a coil. The iron core cylindrical part has multiple circular arc-shaped core back parts. The teeth radially inwardly protrude from an inner circumferential wall surface of the iron core cylindrical part. The coil is wound around each of the teeth. A first coil and a second coil are disposed so as to hold a temperature measuring element therebetween. The first coil has an outer surface provided with a gap made of a recess or a space, which is formed by skipping winding a coil wire. The temperature measuring element for measuring temperature of the coil is inserted in the gap and is assembled.

  • Patent number: 10938256
    Abstract: In a motor stator, terminal wires of a coil are led out respectively from a feed-side and a neutral-side coil end. With three circumferentially adjacent first-, second-, and third-phase coils as one set, the leading end portion and intermediate portion of one of three terminal wires led out from the neutral side are connected to each of the remaining terminal wires. A structure wherein the first- and second-phase terminal wires are connected together in one position, and the second- and third-phase terminal wires are connected together in a different position from the one position, is adopted, thus compacting the size of one wire connection portion.
