Abstract An electric rotary machine having a stator and a rotor, an annular air gap between the stator and the rotor, said stator comprising an outer annular yoke and a plurality of radially directed stator teeth circumferentially spaced apart to define a plurality of openings between adjacent teeth and extending the full radial depth of the teeth, stator windings in the openings between the stator teeth and a moulding adjacent axial ends of the stator forming an insulation for the stator windings and locating and holding together the stator teeth and stator windings as a rigid assembly, the inner ends of said teeth being formed with pointed tooth shoulders wherein adjacent shoulders are closely spaced apart to provide a narrow gap therebetween.
