Patent number: 9847703Abstract: In a rotor manufacturing method, a magnetic body is moved by being pushed by a pusher along a guide surface of a guide portion, and the magnetic body is in a stated of being biased to the guide surface since the magnetic body is urged by a restriction portion. Therefore, the magnetic body can slide reliably between the guide portion and the restriction portion while restricting an insertion posture of the magnetic body. Thus, even if a wall surface of a magnet insertion hole is provided with a protrusion, when the magnetic body slides with the guide surface as a reference, the magnetic body will not abut against the protrusion, and the magnetic body can be reliably loaded into the magnet insertion hole.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2015Date of Patent: December 19, 2017Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventor: Shingo Fubuki

Patent number: 9287743Abstract: Disclosed are a multilayered wound coil, a stator, and a manufacturing method therefor. The stator is provided with: a stator core comprising laminated steel sheets; and a coil which is wound around a teeth section formed on the stator core and has a plurality of layers formed in the circumferential direction of the stator core. The winding of the coil proceeds in either the radial direction or the circumferential direction of the stator core, whichever direction has fewer adjacent conductors, and doubles back at the end in said direction. This reduces the difference in potential between adjacent conductors, making it possible to ensure insulation between adjacent conductors even with a thinner insulating film.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2010Date of Patent: March 15, 2016Assignee: TOYOTA JIDOSHA KABUSHIKI KAISHAInventors: Shingo Fubuki, Keita Okumura, Kenji Harada
