Abstract

Abstract A novel armature of an electric rotating machine is disclosed. The armature core is divided axially into two or more members. The coils of the armature winding are fixed on the armature core in such a way that two or more coil sides are disposed in each slot of one member, and the coil sides disposed in the same slot are arranged in adjacent different slots of the other member. The end of each coil is positioned in a manner to substantially equalize the mutual inductance between each pair of adjacent coil ends.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 12
Claim 1
Independent Claim 114 words
An armature of a rotating machine, comprising: an armature core axially laminated and divided into a pair of members, said armature including a plurality of slots extending in axial direction; an armature winding including a plurality of coils, wherein at least two coil sides disposed in a slot of a member of said armature core are separated at least into two and disposed in different slots of the other member of said armature core; and means for setting the position of each coil end in such a manner that the effect of mutual inductance is substantially uniform between every pair of adjacent ends of the coils protruded from the ends of said armature core.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 114 words
An armature of a rotating machine, comprising: an armature core axially laminated and divided into a pair of members, said armature including a plurality of slots extending in axial direction; an armature winding including a plurality of coils, wherein at least two coil sides disposed in a slot of a member of said armature core are separated at least into two and disposed in different slots of the other member of said armature core; and means for setting the position of each coil end in such a manner that the effect of mutual inductance is substantially uniform between every pair of adjacent ends of the coils protruded from the ends of said armature core.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
An armature according to claim 1, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends sets the position of coil ends in such a manner that the coil ends corresponding to said coil sides disposed in the same slot of said member located at the end of said armature core are placed closely with each other through an insulating member.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 50 words
An armature according to claim 2, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends are spacers inserted between adjacent ones of a plurality of sets of coil ends closely arranged, in order to maintain a substantially uniform interval between every adjacent pair of said sets of coil ends.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 33 words
An armature according to claim 3, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends further includes an insulating winding member for integrally securing said coil ends closely arranged to each other.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 39 words
An armature according to claim 2, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends are binding members wound on the outer periphery of all of said coil ends on at least one end of said armature core.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 50 words
An armature according to claim 5, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends further includes a spacer inserted between every two adjacent sets of the pair of closely-arranged coil ends in such a manner that said adjacent sets are in substantially equidistantly spaced relation with each other.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 32 words
An armature according to claim 1, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends sets the position of each coil end by taking advantage of the rigidity of each coil.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 39 words
An armature according to claim 1, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends sets the position of coil ends in such a manner that the distance between every adjacent pair of coil ends is substantially uniform.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 28 words
An armature according to claim 8, wherein said means for setting the position of coil ends is spacers each inserted between every adjacent pair of the coil ends.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 40 words
An armature according to claim 1, wherein said armature winding is so constructed that said coil sides disposed in the same slot of said one member are disposed in adjacent slots of the other member adjacent to said one member.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 37 words
An armature according to claim 1, wherein said slots of said one member of said armature core are displaced by a half slot in pitch from those slots of said other member adjacent to said one member.
