  • Patent number: 7402925
    Abstract: A stator for an electric motor, in particular for an external rotor motor, includes a laminated stator core which is provided with a stator winding and having a connecting arrangement, which is arranged on one end side in the region of an end winding of the stator winding, for the purpose of electrically connecting winding wire ends of the stator winding and connecting wires of a temperature monitor connected upstream of the stator winding. The connecting arrangement has an insulating switching disk which covers the region of the end winding, in particular in the form of a cap. The temperature monitor is held in the switching disk in an integrated manner such that, on the end-winding side, it rests between the Mater winding and the switching disk such that it is in thermally conductive bearing contact with said stator winding.

  • Publication number: 20060262442
    Abstract: The invention relates to a stator (1) for an electric motor, in particular for an external rotor motor, having a laminated stator core (2) which is provided with a stator winding (8) and having a connecting arrangement (20), which is arranged on one end side in the region of an end winding (9) of the stator winding (8), for the purpose of electrically connecting winding wire ends of the stator winding (8) and connecting wires (16) of a temperature monitor (18) connected upstream of the stator winding (8). The connecting arrangement (20) has an insulating switching disk (22) which covers the region of the end winding (9), in particular in the form of a cap. The temperature monitor (18) is held in the switching disk (22) in an integrated manner such that, on the end-winding side, it rests between the stator winding (8) and the switching disk (22) such that it is in thermally conductive bearing contact with said stator winding (8).
