Abstract: A manufacturing method of a stator for vehicular rotary electric machine includes: forming an indentation in a radial direction in a side face of each of electrical conductors in the machine by pressing; inserting the electrical conductors in a radially side-by-side relationship with each other in slots of the machine; bending each of the electrical conductors and radially adjacent electrical conductors in different circumferential directions by a predetermined pole pitch such that the indentations formed in respective side faces of the adjacent electrical conductors pass each other in a face-to-face relationship; and bonding on each of the electrical conductors to one end of the adjacent electrical conductors.

Abstract: Is disclosed an inclination sensor for detecting a tilted state of a case by detecting by a magnetic sensor a magnetized portion of a pendulum type movement mounted rotatably on a shaft in accordance with inclination of the case, wherein the shaft fitted with a clearance in a rotation shaft hole of the movement is further provided at both ends with loosely fitted thereon spacers and mounted in the case. This realizes non-restricted state of both the movement and the shaft. Thus, the movement obtains an improved response characteristic and an increased stability since no oscillation of a running vehicle is transmitted through the shaft to the movement.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a winding includes steps of twisting U-shaped conductor segments, inserting straight portions of the twisted conductor segments in slots of a stator core, bending ends of the straight portions in a circumferential direction of the stator core and joining the ends. The method further includes a step of pressing turn portions of the U-shaped conductor segments by a turn portion twisting apparatus such that widths of the turn portions reduce in radial directions. The pressing step is performed simultaneously with the twisting step. Alternatively, the pressing step is performed after the twisting step.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a stator winding includes a twisting step of U-shaped conductor segments having a pair of straight portions by moving the straight portions in the circumferential direction while restraining the turn portions of the U-shaped conductor segments in the axial direction by a pressing tool. After the previously twisted U-shaped conductor segments are inserted into slots of a stator core, the straight portions are bent in the circumferential direction. The pressing tool is constituted of a stationary top plate that has recesses into which the straight portions are inserted and a movable top plate that is movable to close the recesses after the straight portions are inserted in the recesses.

Abstract: To secure insulation between electrical conductors at a coil end, a first electrical conductor at one coil end is arranged so as to intersect a radially adjacent second electrical conductor at one point or more. The electrical conductor is formed with radial indentations in side faces that are opposite side faces in opposing electrical conductors at any of the intersecting portions, the indentations having depths that increase toward the near ear of the electrical conductors. Sufficient clearances are thereby secured between electrical conductors in their intersecting portions near their ends where the insulating films are susceptible to damage because of welding heat. Electrical insulation is thus ensured, and the cooling efficiency at the coil end is improved.

Abstract: A method of manufacturing a winding of a rotary electric machine includes steps of pressing a portion of a conductor segment in a predetermined direction to reduce its dimension in the direction, inserting the conductor segment into a slot of a stator core, bending the conductor segments and joining ends of the conductor segments. In the pressing step, the conductor segment is pressed with a punch in a condition that it is held in a die that has curved inside corner portions to restrict deformation of corners of the pressed portion.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a winding for an electric rotating machine includes steps of altering, passing, shaping, and connecting. In the altering step, connecting portions of conductor segments, a part of which is exposed, are altered in shape by a pressing die to provide good contact between the segments when they are connected. The altered segments are passing through slots of a stator core in the passing step. Ends of protruded portions of the segments are shaped so that they make an angle with respect to the radial section of the stator core in the shaping step. Adjacent segments are connected together at ends of the connecting portion in the connecting step.
