A method of producing a rotating electric machine stator includes an insertion step, bending step, and pressing step. In the insertion step, two leg portions of each U-shaped coil wire of a stator coil are inserted into different slots, such that protruding portions as distal end portions of the leg portions protrude in parallel with an axial direction of the stator core. In the bending step, the protruding portion of a first leg portion is bent in a first circumferential direction of the stator core, at a proximal end portion of the protruding portion as a bending start point, from a condition where the protruding portion protrudes from the slot in parallel with the axial direction of the stator core. In the pressing step, a distal end of the protruding portion bent in the first circumferential direction is pressed toward its proximal end in a second circumferential direction.

A rotational electric machine includes an iron core having a plurality of slots, and a plurality of segment conductive bodies arranged in the slots, wherein the iron core includes a coil guide arranged at, at least, one of opening portions of the slots, and the coil guide includes a slot insertion portion located between the slot and the segment conductive body and at least one separation portion located between the segment conductive bodies, and the slot insertion portion and the separation portion are arranged in the slot together with the segment conductive body.

The present invention relates to an automatic motor lead wire cutting and twisting assembly which may include a rack, a turntable mechanism and a power control box which are both provided on the rack. On the rack surrounding the turntable mechanism are in turn provided a wire collating mechanism, a wire teasing mechanism, a wide cutting mechanism, a single cutting mechanism and a wire twisting mechanism. A wire teasing and securing mechanism is provided on the rack above the wire twisting mechanism. A reject tank is provided on the rack below the wide cutting mechanism and the single cutting mechanism. All of the drive components of the above mechanisms are electrically connected to the power control box. Cooperating with motor production equipment, an automated production line is formed, which mainly comprises turntable mechanism, wire collating mechanism, wire cutting part, and twisting part etc., with delicate structural design, high automation level, and time and human resource saving compared to manual operation, and conduces to improve production efficiency of motor production lines.

A hollow portion is formed in a holding jig. A first projection protrudes from a first inner side wall of the hollow portion. As the holding jig rotates to twist and bend a leg portion of a conductor, the projection bites into the leg portion.

An assembling device (10) includes a first rotating portion (11), a second rotating portion (12), and eighteen support arms (13) for supporting coil segments (4), and a motor (29). The first rotating portion (11) includes a first rotating plate (11a) having first holding portions (1d) on an outer peripheral surface thereof. The second rotating portion (12) includes a second rotating plate (12a) having second holding portions (12c) on an outer peripheral surface thereof. The motor (29) rotates the first rotating portion (11) in a counterclockwise direction D1, and the second rotating portion in a clockwise direction D2. Thus, the base parts (21) of the first to eighteenth support arms (13) are transferred from the first holding portions (11d) to the second holding portions (12c) so that the coil segments (4) are assembled to overlap with one another.

A method for manufacturing a coil of an electrical machine includes providing a laminated core having a first and a second slot, and inserting a first winding segment in the first slot to a first region having a first end portion and a second winding segment in the second slot to a second area having a second end portion. The method includes adhering the first end portion by inserting in a first recess a bending device and by positioning of a retaining element into a locking position in the first recess, and holding the second end portion by inserting in a second recess of the bender. The method includes bending the first and the second range in a bending direction to a first bending angle. The method also includes releasing the first end portion, and turning the second region in the bending direction to a second bending angle.

A coil with a distributed winding formed from hairpins that each have two straight-line conductor portions arranged in different slots of a coil body. Contact regions shaped in circumferential direction adjoin the conductor portions at one axial end and are connected at the other axial end through a turning region. The contact regions have at the end remote of the coil body a connection portion that are aligned in radially extending rows. The contact regions of a layer are shaped in the same circumferential direction. A portion of the contact regions of an outer layer is deformed in radial direction to form an additional, and these contact regions are shaped in a circumferential direction opposite to the contact regions of the outer layer.

A control device moves a split claw (11) holding a projecting portion (4d) of an eighth-layer coil segment (4) in a counterclockwise direction D1. At this time, the control device moves first to third extended blades (13a) to (13c) in an outward direction D3 so that the projecting portion (4d) of the eighth-layer coil segment (4) is bent in the outward direction D3. Then, the control device moves the first to third extended blades (13a) to (13c) in an inward direction D4. Through the above steps, the projecting portion (4d) of the eighth-layer coil segment (4) is bent in the counterclockwise direction D1 while being bent in the outward direction D3. As a result, a return force tending to return in the inward direction D4 is generated by an elastic deformation force.

A synchronous generator of a gearless wind turbine is provided. The synchronous generator includes a rotor and a stator. The stator has a stator ring having teeth and slots arranged therebetween for receiving a stator winding. In a circumferential direction, the stator ring is divided into stator segments, each having an equal number of slots. Within a segment, the slots have a substantially equal spacing with respect to each another in the circumferential direction. In at least one connecting region of two segments, the spacing of at least two adjacent slots, which are each assigned to one of two different segments, differs from the spacing of the slots within a segment. The stator winding is formed with form coils. A method for producing a synchronous generator is provided and a use of aluminum and copper form coils in the generator is provided.

A coil end bending jig pushes down a plurality of coil ends of coil segments held by a toric stator core, the plurality of coil ends being arranged on a same circumference. The coil end bending jig includes a plurality of bending units each having a bending tooth that makes contact with a corresponding one of the coil ends, and a guide member having a plurality of guiding slits into which the plurality of bending units is inserted, respectively. The plurality of guiding slits extends from an inner peripheral side of the stator core to an outer peripheral side of the stator core so as not to intersect with each other when viewed from an axial direction of the stator core.
