Patent number: 9318929Abstract: An electric machine has a stator which carries a polyphase coil winding, wherein coil ends are connected in a predetermined manner to a plurality of electric connection conductors. The electric machine comprises a power connection unit having a plurality of terminal conductors which are constructed separate from the connection conductors and which by a first end portion are bondingly connected or connectable to the connection conductors and by a second end portion are connected or connectable to the electrical energy source. The power connection unit is constructed as a plastic composite element, in which the terminal conductors are embedded at least over a portion of their length in a plastic shell so as to be spaced apart from one another, and wherein first end portions of the terminal conductors project out of the plastic shell.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2012Date of Patent: April 19, 2016Assignee: ZF Friedrichshafen AGInventors: Alexander Schäflein, Matthias Weidner, Udo Niehaus, Matthias Cudok, Christian Brückner, Stefan Keller

Patent number: 8183728Abstract: A stator for an electric machine includes an annular stator yoke at which a plurality of radially projecting stator teeth carrying coils with coil terminals is circumferentially arranged. Annular connection conductors are arranged concentrically at a carrier member adjacent to the coils so as to be electrically insulated relative to one another and are connected to the coil terminals in a predetermined manner in the connection area of the carrier member. The coil terminals emerge axially from the coils and apertures corresponding to the coil terminals are formed in a wall area of the carrier member. The coil terminals extend axially through these apertures into the connection area of the carrier member, wherein the wall area of the carrier member radially overlaps an exit area where the coil terminals emerge from the coils.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2009Date of Patent: May 22, 2012Assignee: ZF Friedrichshafen AGInventors: Alexander Schäflein, Matthias Weidner, Ralf Ronnebeck, Marcus van Heyden
