Abstract: A pressure receiving surface inclined to a rotation axis is provided on the side surface of a stir probe of a rotating tool. The pressure receiving surface includes a pressure receiving region which is always perpendicular to a rotation tangential direction in a cross section perpendicular to the rotation axis. In friction stir processing, the stir probe is caused to rotate in a rotation direction B in which the normal direction of the pressure receiving surface is positive. According to this kind of rotating tool, as it has no shoulder, a joint width does not increase even when a stirring region is deep, and also, a plastic flow in a rotation direction is generated by a pressure receiving surface, so that it is possible to reduce the proportion of the plastic flow in the rotation axis direction, and thus possible to suppress an occurrence of burr.

Abstract: The present invention provides a dynamoelectric stator and a method for the manufacture thereof enabling electrical insulation properties to be improved by forming slot-housed portions with a racetrack-shaped cross section to suppress damage to an electrically-insulating coating arising during mounting of a stator winding to a stator core. The construction is such that the slot-housed portions of the stator winding are formed with the racetrack-shaped cross section, and are housed inside slots so as to line up in single columns in a radial direction with a longitudinal direction of the cross section of the slot-housed portions aligned in a circumferential direction.

Abstract: Coil members are obtained by forming width-reduced portions in a wire material over a predetermined longitudinal range generally centered on cutting positions, then removing an insulation coating from the width-reduced portions, and thereafter cutting the wire material at the width-reduced portions. Coil segments are prepared by bending the coil members into a general U shape. Then the coil segments are inserted into the slots in a stator core, and a stator is obtained by welding together the free end portions of the projecting coil segments.
