  • Publication number: 20210203214
    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a stator of an electrical machine. The method including: a toothed ring having teeth joined together by bridges of material and defining between them slots open radially toward the outside, windings produced outside of the slots, and a yoke configured to be attached to the toothed ring. The method also including attaching at least one piece of sheet-form insulation to at least a portion of each of the windings, inserting said winding portions with the insulation into the slots via a radial movement directed toward the inside of the slots, and assembling the yoke onto the radially exterior surface of the ring to close the slots radially.

  • Patent number: 10389199
    Abstract: A stator (1) of a rotary electric machine includes a body (2) provided with slots (15), a coil (3) constituted of windings (4, 5, 6, 7, 8) that include first conductive segments (19) equipped with two first branches and second conductive segments (25) provided with two second branches. Each conductive segment is coated with insulation except for the presence of a bared surface on each one of the branches. The shapes of the bared surfaces complement one another. The first and second conductive segments are arranged in a staggered configuration and in opposite directions successively one after the other, with each slot accepting first branches and second branches positioned opposite with the bared surfaces thereof respectively in contact with one another in such a way as to form a continuous wire. The stator includes elements for keeping the bared surfaces in contact with one another in the slots.

  • Patent number: 9742231
    Abstract: A rotary electrical machine comprising a rotor and a stator (1). The stator comprises a tooth (21) delimited by notches (22), and a winding composed of n×M wires (3), wherein n corresponds to a number of phases and is equal to at least 2, and M corresponds to a number of continuous electric wires for each phase (3) and is equal to at least one. The winding is composed of successive turns, each of the successive turns comprising n×M wires wound simultaneously in n of the notches (22) to be inserted in n series of notches. Each of the series of the notches is dedicated to a single phase, and for each of the successive turns, each of the assembly of the M wires (3) constitutes a phase and is inserted in the same series of the notches (22).
