Abstract
Abstract In an AC servomotor constructed so that the outer circumference (21b) of a stator core (21) formed by laminating thin steel plates (22) is used as part of a motor housing, bearing mounting bores (25a, 26a) for receiving bearing members (27, 28) to be mounted on a pair of brackets (25, 26) attached to the front and rear ends of the stator core (21) and mounting surfaces (25b, 25c) of the motor are formed with accurate concentricity and squareness with reference to the center bore (21a) and the outer circumference (21b) of the stator core (21) after firmly joining the brackets (25, 26) to the stator core (21). Thus, a rotor (29) is supported with high accuracy in concentricity with the stator core (21) on the brackets (25, 26) and the squareness of the output shaft (29a) to the mounting surfaces (25b, 25c) is established.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
194 words
A method of manufacturing an AC servomotor, comprising the steps of: laminating a plurality of magnetic steel plates to form a stator core having a center bore and slots for receiving coils; selecting at least one datum surface comprised of either the inner surface of said center bore or the outer circumference of said stator core ; loading stator coils in said stator core slots; securing a pair of brackets to the axial opposite ends of said stator core respectively to provide an assembly for rotatably supporting a rotor in bearing members thereon; machining each of said brackets to form bearing member mounting bores therein concentric with said selected datum surface of said stator core to form an outer mounting surface on one of said brackets which is perpendicular to said selected datum surface of said stator core; and rotatably supporting a rotor and shaft internally of said stator core center bore, said shaft being rotatably mounted in bearing members fit to said bearing member mounting bores of said brackets whereby said rotor and shaft will be concentric with said selected datum surface of said stator core and normal to said outer mounting surface.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
194 words
A method of manufacturing an AC servomotor, comprising the steps of: laminating a plurality of magnetic steel plates to form a stator core having a center bore and slots for receiving coils; selecting at least one datum surface comprised of either the inner surface of said center bore or the outer circumference of said stator core ; loading stator coils in said stator core slots; securing a pair of brackets to the axial opposite ends of said stator core respectively to provide an assembly for rotatably supporting a rotor in bearing members thereon; machining each of said brackets to form bearing member mounting bores therein concentric with said selected datum surface of said stator core to form an outer mounting surface on one of said brackets which is perpendicular to said selected datum surface of said stator core; and rotatably supporting a rotor and shaft internally of said stator core center bore, said shaft being rotatably mounted in bearing members fit to said bearing member mounting bores of said brackets whereby said rotor and shaft will be concentric with said selected datum surface of said stator core and normal to said outer mounting surface.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
43 words
A method of manufacturing an AC servomotor according to claim 1, further comprising the step of fixing said magnetic steel plates of said stator core by preliminary fixing means after laminating said magnetic steel plates to obviate the deformation of said stator core.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
41 words
A method of manufacturing an AC servomotor according to claim 1 further comprising the step of machining said one bracket to form an additional outer mounting surface concentric with said selected datum surface and normal to said one outer mounting surface.
