Abstract: Disclosed is a battery including a casing including cells housed therein and a terminal part including a connection terminal connected to an electrode terminal of a connection apparatus, in which in the casing, a functional groove having a predetermined function in which a longitudinal direction coincides with a connection direction of the connection terminal and the electrode terminal is formed, and the functional groove includes a plurality of functional units having different lengths which are continuously formed. Accordingly, since there is no part that divides a functional unit between a plurality of functional units having different lengths, a size of the functional groove in a direction in which the functional units are continuous is a sum of sizes of a plurality of functional units, and thus it is possible to reduce the size of the battery while securing high functionality.

Abstract: A first U-shaped part that is bent so as to form a pair of opposite surfaces facing each other, and a second U-shaped part that is bent so as to form a pair of opposite surfaces facing each other are provided side by side in a bus bar main body of a neutral conductor bus bar. One of the first pair of opposite surfaces and one of the second pair of opposite surfaces are located in the same plane, and the other of the first pair of opposite surfaces and the other of the second pair of opposite surfaces are located in the same plane. A temperature sensor is retained by being inserted through a gap between the first pair of opposite surfaces and a gap between the second pair of opposite surfaces.

Abstract: A step of inserting an insulating paper into a slot of a stator core (second step) is performed, a step of placing a jig at a position that is on a side opposite to a side from which a segment coil is inserted into the slot of the stator core and that overlaps with a protrusion when viewed in an inserting direction of the segment coil (third step) is performed, and then a step of inserting the segment coil into the slot (fourth step) is performed. Therefore, even when the insulating paper is dragged by the segment coil in the process of inserting the segment coil into the slot, the insulating paper abuts the jig and the movement of the insulating paper is restricted, thereby suppressing displacement of the insulating paper from the slot.
