  • Patent number: 6873074
    Abstract: Disclosed is a terminal connection structure of a resolver stator coil in which a part of the end portion of the stator coil is left as a free end portion which is free with respect to the terminals, whereby external impact is absorbed, and rupture of the stator coil is prevented, thereby achieving an improvement in reliability. An end portion (3) of a stator coil (1) is wound around terminals (4) to form a winding connection portion (5), and a part of the end portion (3) is left as a free end portion (30) which is not integrally connected to the terminals (4) by soldering or fusing, whereby a spring function is obtained.

  • Patent number: 6750577
    Abstract: To ensure mounting between a stator body and a motor or the like by causing a connector portion integrally formed to an insulating member to be positioned away from the stator body through an inclined surface and a gap. In a stator structure for a rotation detector according to the present invention, the inclined surface is formed on the connector portion placed at a part of one of a pair of insulating members of the stator body, and this inclined surface and the gap cause the connector portion to be located away from the stator body, whereby the stator body can be certainly mounted in a motor or the like.
