DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PRESENT INVENTION

[0030] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Furthermore, the suffixes module, unit and part may be hereinafter used for elements in order to facilitate the invention. Significant meanings or roles may not be given to the suffixes themselves and it is understood that the module, unit and part may be used together or interchangeably.

[0032] As illustrated in FIG. 1, the stator (100) for external rotor type motor according to the present invention may be configured to comprise continuously arranged unit modules (30) including a unit yoke (10) and a unit tooth (20) extensively formed on the unit yoke (10).

[0033] The unit yoke (10) may be configured in an arch type and, when continuously arranged, an entire configuration of the unit yoke may take a ring shape.

[0034] Furthermore, the unit module (30) may be foil led by stacking a plurality of iron cores as shown in FIG. 1, where a stacked height may be pre-set in response to a motor requirement condition.

[0035] Meantime, a mutually-connected connection part (11) and a mutually separated dividing part (12) are formed between the unit yoke (10) and adjacent unit yoke (10).

[0036] In addition, the dividing part (12) may include a coupling means (40) in order to accurately couple the adjacent unit yoke (10).

[0037] The coupling means (40) may be configured in such a manner that one side of the unit yoke (10) may be formed in a groove (41) shape, and the other side coupled to the one side of the unit yoke (10) may be formed with a lug (42) having a shape corresponding to that of the groove (41) whereby fixability of both unit yokes (10) can be increased when the unit yokes (10) are coupled.

[0038] The groove (41) and the lug (42) may be formed in any shape that can be separated and coupled.

[0039] Meantime, if necessary, a starting area of the dividing part (12) may be foil led with a round part (13) in order to increase rotatability with adjacent unit yokes (10).

[0040] Furthermore, the round part (13) has an advantageous effect of preventing a crack that may be generated toward the connection part (11) from the dividing part (12) in response to deformation of the unit yoke (10).

[0041] Meantime, the stator (100) may be such that the winding is progressed while the dividing part (12) is in a widened state, as illustrated in FIG. 1. Thereafter, when the winding is completed, the dividing part (12) may be closed as illustrated in FIG. 2, where the groove (41) formed at each dividing part (12) and adjacent unit modules (30) may be tightly coupled by the lug (42).

[0042] The stator (100) may be configured by allowing the unit modules (30) to be continuously arranged to form a ring shape. At this time, when the unit modules (30) are continuously arranged, the unit yoke (10) may be completely contacted to adjacent unit yoke (10) to form a ring-shaped yoke (50).

[0043] At this time, when the yoke (50) is faulted in a closed type, as shown in FIG. 3, the dividing part (12) may not be widened by the geometrical structure to be same as the conventional stator structure formed with yoke and a plurality of teeth, such that one cutting part (60) can be formed, as shown in FIG. 4, to allow accommodating the deformation of yoke (50).

[0044] If necessary, as illustrated in FIG. 5, two cutting parts (60) may be formed to allow the stator (100) to be formed with two unit stators (1).

[0045] It would be more advantageous, in terms of operational aspect, to form the stator (100) by dividing into two unit stators (1) than for one cutting part (60).

[0046] Furthermore, if necessary, as illustrated in FIG. 6, three cutting parts (60) may be configured to divisibly form three unit stators (1), and in the same context, four or more unit stators (1) may be configured with the same method.

[0047] At this time, it would be advantageous to form the unit stator (1) with the same length for parts sharing and winding arrangement.

[0048] Furthermore, it would be advantageous to form by cutting from a starting area of a dividing part (12) of a particular unit yoke (10) to a connection part (11) direction over cutting other areas because the cut length is short as illustrated in FIG. 7.

[0049] Meantime, when the winding is completed, the cutting part (60) may be joined by welding to allow forming a closed ring-shaped yoke (50).

[0050] Meantime, in view of the fact that the stators (100) are formed by the same number of unit stators (1) in response to the number of cutting parts (60), and when the number of cutting parts (60) are increased, the number of welding parts are increased to be disadvantageous to the manufacturing standpoint of view, such that it would be preferable to determine in consideration of size of motor and the number of unit modules (30), but configuration of five (5) or more cutting parts (60) is generally inadequate due to increased number of welding processes.

[0051] Meantime, the assembly of stator (100) according to the present invention may be processed in the following fashion:

[0052] First, as illustrated in FIG. 1, the winding is sequentially performed on each unit tooth (20) while the dividing part (12) is divided from the unit yokes (10) and the adjacent unit yokes (10). Because the dividing part (12) is in a divided state, an area between the unit tooth (20) and the unit tooth (20) may be maximized to allow the coil to be advantageously wound to the maximum.

[0053] Thereafter, when all unit teeth (20) are completed in winding, each dividing part (12) is coupled, the front part (60) is welded to finally complete the operation.

[0054] At this time, when the cutting part (60) is numbered at one, the winding is to be started from a unit tooth (20) formed with all the cutting parts (60) to complete by rotating 360.

[0055] When the cutting part (60) is numbered at two or more, the winding is to be started from one unit stator (1) because the unit stator (1) is numbered at more than two, and the winding is processed in the arranged order of unit stator (1).

[0056] It should be apparent that when the winding is completed, the dividing parts (12) are coupled, and the cutting parts (60) are welded to complete the manufacturing of entire stator (100).

[0057] Meantime, when the stator (100) is formed with a plurality of unit stators (1), and the coil is independently wound on each unit stator (1), the winding may be simultaneously implemented on the plurality of unit stators (1), the dividing parts (12) are coupled and finally the plurality of cutting parts (60) are welded to complete the manufacturing.

[0058] The stator for external rotor type motor according to the present invention is not limitedly applied to the abovementioned exemplary embodiments, and the exemplary embodiments may be selectively combined in whole or in part to allow realizing various variations.

[0059] Although the abovementioned embodiments according to the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the above specific examples, the embodiments are, however, intended to be illustrative only, and thereby do not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, it should be appreciated by the skilled in the art that changes, modifications and amendments to the above examples may be made without deviating from the scope of protection of the invention, and these changes, modifications and amendments may not be individually interpreted from the technical ideas or prospects of the present invention.
