  • Method of manufacturing rotary electric machine
    Patent number: 8875381
    Abstract: A coil strand is wound on an insulator to produce a divided core member, and then the divided core member is placed on a table. While the table rotates about its axis, ends of the coil strands are inserted into lead end holding grooves, which are defined in a surface of the insulator on an outer circumferential edge of a stator and which extend along a circumferential direction of the stator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 24, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 4, 2014
    Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
    Inventors: Satoru Uchiumi, Hiroki Tahira, Kohei Fujinoto, Yasuto Ohashi
  • Rotary electric machine and method of manufacturing same
    Patent number: 8847457
    Abstract: A rotary electric machine includes a plurality of lead end holding grooves defined in insulators at an outer circumferential surface of a stator core, for guiding respective ends of coil leads therein. The lead end holding grooves are defined by ledges of the insulators. The ledges have respective lands which are convex in widthwise directions of the lead end holding groove.

  • STATOR MANUFACTURING APPARATUS
    Publication number: 20090300906
    Abstract: A nozzle unit includes first, second, and third nozzles for discharging a sealant, and is movable toward and away from a stator by a vertically moving unit. The stator is disposed in a position facing the nozzle unit and is angularly movable successively through given angles by a rotary unit. The first, second, and third nozzles are moved radially outwardly in synchronism with each other by a link mechanism, and then lowered by the vertically moving unit at a position facing a first filling groove or a second filling groove of the stator. The first, second, and third nozzles thus lowered introduce the sealant into the first filling groove or the second filling groove.
