  • Patent number: 9906086
    Abstract: A rotating electric machine having downsized coil ends is provided. In a rotating electric machine having a stator 130 including a stator core 132 formed with a plurality of slots 420 rowed in a circumferential direction and a stator coil 138 inserted into the slots of the stator core, and a rotor 150 disposed rotatably with respect to the stator core with a clearance interposed therebetween. The stator coil is formed by a plurality of segment coils 28 being connected, the segment coils 28 being made of a conductor shaped into a rough U-shape and having a rectangular cross-section. The segment coil has at an end a connection portion 800 connected to another segment coil, the connection portion having a corner portion 810.

  • Publication number: 20130094269
    Abstract: A power conversion apparatus includes a smoothing capacitor module having a plurality of one and the other DC terminals arranged in a state of being laminated with each other, a flow channel forming body for forming a cooling medium flow channel that allows a cooling medium to flow along the capacitor module, and a plurality of power semiconductor modules each including a module case having a cooling surface, DC terminals projecting in one direction in a laminated state from the module case, and an AC terminal projecting in one direction from the module case. The power semiconductor modules are fixed to the flow channel forming body so that the cooling surface of the module case of the power semiconductor module is inserted into the cooling medium flow channel and comes into contact with the cooling medium flowing within the flow channel forming body.
