Patent number: 7719148Abstract: In a motor stator structure, a neutral-point bus ring is arranged along an inner peripheral portion of a stator, and alternately includes a larger-diameter portion, a first link portion, a smaller-diameter portion, and a second link portion. An end of a wound wire pulled out of a coil is located between radially-extending adjacent first and second link portions. A connecting terminal is connected at one end to the end of the wound wire, and at the other end to the first and second link portions. The use of the neutral-point bus ring ensures that a neutral point can be formed without bending the end of the wound wire of the coil into a U-shape. Particularly when a rectangular cross-section wire difficult to bend is used as the wound wire, the processing cost can be reduced.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2007Date of Patent: May 18, 2010Assignee: Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Tomoyuki Okada, Michihisa Kono, Hiroyuki Sato, Minoru Nakajima

Patent number: 7378142Abstract: The present invention provides an interlayer for a laminated glass which does not give rise to the moiré phenomenon even when the arrangement and pitch of its embossments are orderly, hence providing for good workability in cutting and laminationg operations and good deaeration in preliminary contact bonding, thus insuring the production of a laminated glass of high quality with a minimum of rejects for reasons of air bubbles, and a laminated glass containing said interlayer. The invention also provides an interlayer for a laminated glass which provides for good deaeration without a risk for premature margial sealing even if the temperature at initiation of deaeration at preliminary contact bonding is not critically controlled and which does not require raising of temperature for achieving a marginal seal of the glass-interlayuer assembly, and a laminated glass containing said interlayer.Type: GrantFiled: October 26, 2006Date of Patent: May 27, 2008Assignee: Sekisui Chemical Co., Ltd.Inventors: Minoru Nakajima, Isei Sannomiya
