  • Method for setting stator coil
    Patent number: 7882619
    Abstract: Stator coils are inclined with respect to the axial direction of annularly arranged coil holding portions and such that at least parts of the stator coils overlap one another. In setting the stator coils on the coil holder, the stator coils are sequentially set on the coil holder in a predetermined direction, which is a coil setting direction, from the starting stator coil so as to overlap one another. The second section of the ending stator coil is set at the same position as a position where the first section of the starting stator coil is set in the circumferential direction or at a position advanced from the position where the first section of the starting stator coil is set in the circumferential direction. The ending stator coil is set on the coil holder to be further inward than the starting stator coil. Therefore, stator coils are evenly arranged.
