  • Patent number: 7965013
    Abstract: An insulating cover or a bar-to-bar connection of a stator winding of an electric machine has only one opening and is made from a flexible insulating material embedding the bar-to-bar connection entirely in a tight fit. Methods for producing and applying such an insulating cover are also provided.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7567008
    Abstract: A rotating electrical machine (10) has a rotor (11), which rotates about an axis (13) and is surrounded concentrically by a stator (12) having a stator winding (30) inserted into a stator body (21), the stator winding (30) including, in a concentric arrangement, a lower layer (16), which is more remote from the axis, and an upper layer (17), which is closer to the axis, of axially extending winding bars (14), which emerge from the stator body (21) at the ends of the stator (12) and are arranged, within an end winding (15), with their bar ends (23), on two concentric circles in pairs one above the other in the radial direction. With such a machine, simplified production of the stator winding (30) with, at the same time, a high dielectric strength is achieved by virtue of the fact that in those winding bars (14) of a pair which belong to different phases within a phase segregation, radial spreading (18) of the bar ends (23) is provided so as to increase the radial distance between the different phases.

  • Patent number: 7368845
    Abstract: An electric machine with a rotor and a stator, especially an electric motor or a generator, preferably for a power plant, wherein the stator has a winding with several winding bars which, in the area of an axial core face, are each connected via a phase connector bar to a terminal of the stator winding so as to be electrically conductive. Several phase connector bars extend between their ends in a ring segment manner along the circumference of the stator and rest internally and radially on at least one support. Several such supports are distributed along the circumference in the area of the core face. On at least one support, there is a phase connector bar between two stationary axial stops; with its inside, said phase connector bar is axially in contact with the first axial stop or with a spacer, and with its outside, it is axially in contact with the second axial stop or with a spacer.
