A stator for a rotary electric machine includes a stator core including a stack of a plurality of steel sheets 36; a stator coil wound around teeth of the stator core; and a plurality of insulators interposed between the stator core and the stator coil. Each of the insulators has at least one engagement tab projecting toward a side surface of a tooth. Each of the steel sheets 36 has a plurality of tooth portions 40 that form the teeth when the steel sheets 36 are stacked. Each of some of the plurality of tooth portions 40 has a notch 42 formed on a side surface of the tooth portion 40, the notches 42 forming an engagement recess in which the engagement tab is hooked when the steel sheets 36 are stacked. The stator core is formed by rotating and stacking the plurality of steel sheets 36.

In a method for manufacturing a motor bobbin around which a coil is wound, an insulating sheet and a core material are disposed within the cavity of an injection mold, and the motor bobbin is formed by the injection mold into which a resin is injected. The motor bobbin consists of the insulating sheet and a resin molded body.

Disclosed are various embodiments for assembling a new and improved electrical motor/generator, specifically a method of producing a coil assembly is disclosed comprising: pressing a plurality of individual teeth having interlocking side features, applying a conductor around one of the interlocking side features, coupling a tooth of the coil assembly with an adjacent tooth, applying a second conductor around one of the interlocking side features of the adjacent tooth, repeating the coupling and applying steps until an entire ring has been assembled.

A motor stator includes a stator core and a number of stator windings. The stator core includes a stator yoke and a plurality of stator tooth wrapped by a bobbin formed with an over-molding process, and further correspondingly wound around by stator windings. The stator teeth are connected to an inner surface of the stator yoke. A motor including the above motor stator and a rotor is also provided. The rotor includes a rotor core and a rotary shaft fixed relative to the rotor core. The rotor core is received in the bobbin and in magnetic coupling with the stator teeth.

A motor armature includes a laminated body including a stack of magnetic bodies each having an annular and plate shape, an extended body that opposes an opposing peripheral surface that is at least one of an inner peripheral surface and an outer peripheral surface of the laminated body and extends along a stacking direction of the magnetic bodies, and a holder stacked on the laminated body in the stacking direction to hold the laminated body. The holder includes a plate portion that extends along the laminated body and has higher rigidity than the magnetic bodies, and a sleeve portion that extends in contact with the extended body.

Various implementations include a stator assembly for an axial flux permanent magnet machine. The stator assembly may include a set of stator bars and a set of shoes for the stator bars. A shoe may be provided at one or each end of a stator bar. The stator assembly may further include a set of coils each wound around a respective stator bar. Each shoe has an inner surface adjacent to the end of one of the stator bars. The end of each stator bar has a rim, and each inner surface has a cut-away region over part of the rim to reduce a component of magnetic flux at the end of the stator bar.

A method for manufacturing a magnetic core of an electric machine is presented. The method comprises defining at least one characteristic of magnetic flux for each of at least two portions of the magnetic core, determining types for each of the at least two portions of the magnetic core based on the defined at least one characteristic representing the corresponding portion of the magnetic core, and obtaining or producing the magnetic core comprising the at least two portions having the determined types.

The invention relates to an arrangement in the form of an electric ring machine in the implementation of a reluctance machine which is operated as a synchronous reluctance machine, in which recesses are formed at the outer side of the rotor sheets in the radial extension opposite to the inner barriers. These result in webs which hold and enclose the barriers and can thus be manufactured in a defined manner at both sides, even if the finished assembled rotor design is later finally mechanically reworked at the outer side. In addition to the rotor, the invention also relates to a corresponding electric ring machine and a method for producing such a rotor.

To reduce a loss of a rotating electric machine by making it difficult for an eddy current to occur in a welding portion of the rotating electric machine. A rotating electric machine includes a rotor including a magnet on an outer circumferential portion, a stator core having plural teeth facing the outer circumferential portion of the rotor via a gap, an electric insulator covering a part of a surface of the stator core, and plural coils wound around the stator core via the electric insulator. The stator core has plural steel plates stacked in an axial direction. At least two plural steel plates [adjacent to each other in the axial direction, of the plural steel plates, are welded at a position on the surface of the stator core, the position being outside a closed magnetic circuit generated in the stator core. The plural steel plates are not welded at a position on the surface of the stator core where each tooth faces the rotor.

A method of constructing a stator for an electric machine includes forming multiple components of the stator as individual elements and assembling the components into a stator structure and mounting the stator into a machine housing. The individual elements can be individually separated from the housing and from the stator structure and replaced with corresponding elements.
