Abstract
Abstract A liquid-cooled motor having cooling liquid passages (26a, 26b, 26c) formed in the laminated core (16) of the stator (14). End plates (20, 22) are applied to the axially opposite end faces of the laminated core (16) of the stator (14), and a compressive force is applied through the end plates to the laminated core (16) by clamping the laminated core (16) with bolts (30) inserted through the end plates (20, 22) and the cooling liquid passages (26a, 26b) of the laminated core (16).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
184 words
A liquid-cooled motor comprising: a rotor having a rotor shaft in a central portion thereof; a stator comprising a laminated core impregnated with a resin, said laminated core being provided with a plurality of pairs of cooling liquid passages each pair having two axially extending cooling liquid passages bored from one end face to another end face of said laminated core; end plates applied to axially opposite end faces of the laminated core of said stator, respectively, said two axially extending cooling liquid passages of each pair being connected together at both end faces of said laminated core by a connecting passage; a plurality of clamping means for inserting through the end plates and the cooling liquid passages of the laminated core, said clamping means for applying a compressive force to the laminated core by pressing the end plates against said axially opposite end faces of said laminated core, respectively, wherein said resin of said laminated core coats the cooling liquid passages of the laminated core with the resin to construct a leakproof construction after the laminated core is clamped with said clamping means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
184 words
A liquid-cooled motor comprising: a rotor having a rotor shaft in a central portion thereof; a stator comprising a laminated core impregnated with a resin, said laminated core being provided with a plurality of pairs of cooling liquid passages each pair having two axially extending cooling liquid passages bored from one end face to another end face of said laminated core; end plates applied to axially opposite end faces of the laminated core of said stator, respectively, said two axially extending cooling liquid passages of each pair being connected together at both end faces of said laminated core by a connecting passage; a plurality of clamping means for inserting through the end plates and the cooling liquid passages of the laminated core, said clamping means for applying a compressive force to the laminated core by pressing the end plates against said axially opposite end faces of said laminated core, respectively, wherein said resin of said laminated core coats the cooling liquid passages of the laminated core with the resin to construct a leakproof construction after the laminated core is clamped with said clamping means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
68 words
A liquid-cooled motor according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of clamping means includes nuts and bolts having heads, the heads of the bolts of said clamping means are seated on bottom surfaces of recesses formed in one end of the end plates, and the nuts of said clamping means, cooperating with the bolts, are seated on the bottom surfaces of recesses formed in the other end plate.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
A liquid-cooled motor according to claim 2, wherein the recesses formed in said end plates for receiving the heads of the bolts and the nuts are sealed with a resin.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
25 words
A liquid-cooled motor according to claim 1, wherein said plurality of clamping means are disposed substantially symmetrically with respect to the center of said stator.
