Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim
202 words
In a rotary electric machine comprising an annular stator core having a plurality of axially extended core teeth to form coil slots therebetween at regular intervals in the circumferential direction in the inner surface of said annular stator core, a stator winding mounted in said coil slots of said stator core through a predetermined insulating material, a plurality of non-magnetic wedges fitted into said coil slots for securely holding said stator winding in said coil slots, a rotor core mounted in the annular hollow portion of said stator core and formed axially shorter than said stator core, a rotor winding wound on said rotor core and having an end portion protruded axially from said core, a coil retaining ring of an electrically conductive material for securely holding the end portion of said rotor winding and a rotary shaft for holding said rotor core; the improvement further comprising magnetic transmission means for magnetically connecting adjacent teeth of said stator core, said magnetic transmission means being provided in said stator slots only at portions opposed to said coil retaining ring for facilitating transmission of magnetic flux from said stator to said rotor through said portions of said stator slots having said magnetic transmission means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
