Patent number: 8334632Abstract: A stator includes a stator-core having slots and teeth, and a back-yoke having convex and concave portions. The convex portions are partially inserted into the slots, and the concave portions receive the teeth. The teeth include tip portions whose circumferential widths become larger along a radial direction from the inside to the outside of the stator. The back-yoke includes convex portions whose circumferential widths become larger along the radial direction from the outside to the inside of the stator. The tip portions and the convex portions have substantially the same shape. The length of a joint portion between the tip portion and the convex portion, the circumferential width of the tooth corresponding to a tip surface of the convex portion, the width of a root portion of the tooth, and the circumferential width of the convex portion corresponding to a bottom face of the concave portion are substantially the same.Type: GrantFiled: November 1, 2010Date of Patent: December 18, 2012Assignee: Denso CorporationInventors: Keiji Kondou, Makoto Taniguchi, Takeo Maekawa, Akira Fukushima, Akito Akimoto, Shin Kusase, Yuya Mizuma
