DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

(9) FIG. 1 shows a tooth-wound coil 6 without insulation 9, with its straight sections 14 and the in particular 180? curves, the curved areas 15. The tooth-wound coil 6 is symmetrical to an extension plane 16, which is at right angles to the drawing plane. The straight sections 14 have an active part area 13, which, in this case, is smaller than the straight section 14.

(10) The active part area 13 is the minimal area of the tooth-wound coil 6, which is arranged in a laminated core of a stator 3 or stator segment 25. The straight section 14 is the area which is possibly additionally still to be provided with an insulation 9, in order, inter alia, to maintain the creepage distance requirements of the tooth-wound coil 6 in the stator 3.

(11) The straight sections 14 of the tooth-wound coil 6 have a distance 22 from their interior sides 19 which ideally corresponds to a tooth width of a stator 3 or stator segment 25. The conductor thickness 21 of the tooth-wound coil 6 occupies at least part of the width of a groove 17 of the stator 3 or the stator segment 25. The insulation is used for potential separation with respect to the groove wall 27 on the interior side 19 of the tooth-wound coil 6.

(12) Insulations 9 on the exterior sides 20 of the straight sections 14 of the tooth-wound coil 6 are used for phase insulation with respect to an adjacent coil side of an adjacent tooth-wound coil 6 in the groove 17 and project axially into the area of the winding heads 18 which are formed by the curved areas 15.

(13) FIG. 2 shows a lateral representation of a basic arrangement of a tooth-wound coil 6, wherein the individual sub-conductors 11 are embodied as a two-layer flat wire 10 and have a sub-conductor insulation 29 with respect to the adjacent sub-conductors 11. This sub-conductor insulation 29 extends across the entire length of the tooth-wound coil 6, in other words the length of the curved areas 15 plus the straight sections 14 of the tooth-wound coil 6. Viewed in the peripheral direction, this sub-conductor insulation 29 of a sub-conductor 11 extends across at least two sides, a longitudinal side and a transverse side, such as, for graphical reasons, is shown in principle over-dimensioned on a sub-conductor 11. The groove 17 itself is closed by a groove closure element 7 with respect to an air gap 23 of a dynamoelectric machine.

(14) FIG. 3 shows a prefabricated tooth-wound coil 6 with its insulations 9, which can also contain mica, in order inter alia to avoid partial discharges. This preferably involves calendered muscovite mica impregnated with a fully cured impregnation resin.

(15) FIG. 4 shows the arrangement in the area of the winding head 18, wherein the exterior sides 20 of the tooth-wound coil 6 are provided with insulation material which is embodied to be axially longer in the direction of the winding head 18 than in respect of the interior skies 19. This is inter aha due to the fact that the curved areas 15 connect thereto. Furthermore, an improved leakage current stability is reached in this area as a result.

(16) FIG. 5 now shows an arrangement of insulated, prefabricated tooth-wound coil 6 in the grooves 17 of a stator 3 or stator segment 25. Here the stator 3 or the stator segment 25 is axially packaged by pressure plates 4 and/or fingers 5 of a pressure plate 4. Prefabricated tooth-wound coils 6 are arranged in grooves 17 of this laminated core of the stator 3 or of the stator segment 25. In this embodiment, straight sections 14 or active part areas 13 of different tooth-wound coils 6 are arranged per groove 17.

(17) The area of the winding head 16 of the stator 3 or stator segment 25 is now composed of 180? curves, in other words the curved areas 15 of the most varied of tooth-wound coils 6. The insulation 9 on the exterior sides 20 of the tooth-wound coils 6 extends axially at least as far as the curved area 15 or therebeyond. The insulation 9 on the exterior sides 20 of the tooth-wound coils 6 therefore extends as far as or virtually onto the axial height of the axial projection of the winding heads 18.

(18) FIG. 6 shows a lateral partial view of a stator segment 25 with an optional segment limit 12 of the stator segment 26, wherein two coil sides of different tooth-wound coils 6, possibly also of different electric phases, are arranged in the grooves 17 in each case. Accordingly, an insulation 9 is to be provided there between the exterior sides 20 of the tooth-wound coils 6 and also between the tooth-wound cons 6 and the teeth 8 of the stator segment 25, Groove closure elements 7 are located in the area of the tooth 8 which is facing an air gap 23.

(19) Viewed cross-sectionally, a tooth-wound coil 6 has at least to some extent coil sides arranged in a V shape. The coil sides which are inclined with respect to one another are possibly required to follow an above all comparatively minimal curvature radius of the stator 3 or stator segment 25 which is facing an air gap 23 and thus a rotor 24.

(20) FIG. 7 shows a basic representation of a wind power plant 1 having an external rotor generator 2, the rotor 24 of which is driven directly by a wind turbine, wherein electrical energy is generated by means of electromagnetic interaction between the rotor 24, which is provided with permanent magnets 28, and an inventively assembled stator 3 or stator segments 25 by means of electromagnetic interaction. Here the rotor 24 rotates with its housing which is fastened to a shaft of the wind turbine around the stationary stator 3.
