Abstract
Abstract A brushless motor improving the structure for connecting the stator coil to the substrate to facilitate the operation of connection and assembling. The constitution comprises a rotor having a rotor magnet (11), a stator core (2) on which the stator coil (7) is wound to be opposed to the rotor magnet (11), a circuit substrate (4) connected to the stator coil (7), and an insulating core holder (3) which holds a terminal to which the coil will be connected and which mounts the stator core (2), the core holder (3) being placed on said circuit substrate (4) and said terminal being soldered to terminal portions on the circuit substrate (4).

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
179 words
A brushless motor including a rotor having rotor magnet, a stator core with a coil wound thereon, said stator core being diposed in a facing relation with said rotor magnet, and a substrate connected with said coil, comprising a terminal area formed only on a first surface of said substrate facing toward said stator core, a core holder made of an insulating material and having a second surface facing toward said first surface of said substrate, and a terminal retaining portion defined on said second surface, said terminal retaining portion being for retaining therein one end of a terminal connected with said coil, said stator core being coupled to said core holder, and said second surface of said core holder having integrally formed thereon, a locating pin, said core holder being placed on said first surface of said substrate by securing said locating pin into a hole formed in said substrate, while simultaneously bringing another free end of said terminal in contact with said terminal area of said substrate, so that said terminal is soldered to said terminal area.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
179 words
A brushless motor including a rotor having rotor magnet, a stator core with a coil wound thereon, said stator core being diposed in a facing relation with said rotor magnet, and a substrate connected with said coil, comprising a terminal area formed only on a first surface of said substrate facing toward said stator core, a core holder made of an insulating material and having a second surface facing toward said first surface of said substrate, and a terminal retaining portion defined on said second surface, said terminal retaining portion being for retaining therein one end of a terminal connected with said coil, said stator core being coupled to said core holder, and said second surface of said core holder having integrally formed thereon, a locating pin, said core holder being placed on said first surface of said substrate by securing said locating pin into a hole formed in said substrate, while simultaneously bringing another free end of said terminal in contact with said terminal area of said substrate, so that said terminal is soldered to said terminal area.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
99 words
A brushless motor as claimed in claim 1, wherein said stator core includes a plurality of salient poles each pole being represented by a number mn where m and n are positive integers, said coil being wound on each of said salient poles, a phase of said coil being represented by m, and a number of each pole of each phase being represented by n, said temrinal having a tongue strip into which at most two leads of said coil are inserted, and secured by said tongue strip, said core holder having a retaining portion to retain said terminal.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
59 words
A brushless motor as claimed in claim 2, wherein said coil has a lead which is fixed to said terminal by an electric welding, said coil having at most two leads which are connected to a tonque strip of said terminal by fusing through an electric welding, said tongue strip being formed on said free end of said terminal.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
44 words
A brushless motor as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that said core holder is fitted and fixed to said stator core and further said core holder is located in place by securing a locating pin formed at said core holder into said substrate.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
71 words
A brushless motor as claimed in claim 1, wherein, in said second surface of said core holder, there are formed a plurality of retaining portions for retaining said one end of said terminal, each of said retaining portions passing through said stator core, and said stator core being juxtaposed with said core holder and fixed via said core holder to said first surface of said substrate by means of a vise.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
31 words
A brushless motor as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that, in said stator core, there is formed a stepped portion to which a flange of a bearing holder is fitted.
