  • Patent number: 8519583
    Abstract: It is necessary to secure a workspace for connection between jumper wires and a wire connecting material. A rotary electric machine includes a plurality of magnetic teeth and a wire connecting material for wire connection. The rotary electric machine further includes a plurality of jumper sections, which are portions of one conductive wire continuously wound around the magnetic teeth and continuously connect coils formed of the conductive wire wound around the magnetic teeth. The jumper section includes first jumper sections which each are not connected by the wire connecting material with another jumper section, and second jumper sections which each are connected by the wire connecting material with another jumper section. Each first jumper section and each second jumper section are configured differently in shape and position from each other.

  • Patent number: 8471419
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a rotating electric machine stator that includes connecting members for connecting jumper wires to each other between neighboring magnetic pole coils of the rotating electric machine stator, and its manufacturing method. In a conventional connecting member, its portions to be connected to the jumper wires are figure-U shaped and have openings on the opposite side to a core's end-face where the jumper wires are disposed, so that, in order to insert the jumper wires into the openings, complex drive controls have been required for the connecting portions being figure-U shaped. In order to simplify the drive controls, such connecting portions being made in curved shapes have openings each facing the end-face of a core. It is possible to generally apply the present invention to rotating electric machine stators that obey coil connection specifications.

  • Patent number: 8013490
    Abstract: An armature includes a plurality of armature elements, wherein each of the armature elements has an armature element core that has a predetermined core length and has end faces spaced apart in a core length direction and side faces connecting the end faces, a first coil that is formed by winding a wire over the side faces and the end faces, a second coil that is formed, after forming the first coil, by winding a wire over the side faces and the end faces so that on the side faces the second coil is formed contiguously to the first coil, and an end structure member that is provided on each of the end faces, has a first-winding face and a second-winding face on which the wires of the first coil and the second coil are wound, respectively, and has a riser formed between the first-winding face and the second-winding face, the end structure member in which a vicinity of the riser on the second-winding face is positioned farther from the each of the end faces than the first-winding face.
