Patent Literature 1: Japanese Patent Application Laid-open No. 2016-073148
Full-pitch winding and short-pitch winding are known as winding methods of a coil. The full-pitch winding means a winding method in which a pole pitch of a rotor and a coil pitch of a stator are equal. The short-pitch winding means a winding method in which the coil pitch of the stator is smaller than the pole pitch of the rotor. For example, in a case where a coil of a switched reluctance motor is wound in the full-pitch winding, torque per unit volume of a stator of the full-pitch winding motor is larger than that of a short-pitch winding motor. However, a coil end of the full-pitch winding motor becomes larger than that of the short-pitch winding motor, and significant improvement in torque density of the motor cannot be expected. In addition, depending on a structure of the stator, without employment of a split stator core, it may be difficult to insert a molded coil into a slot of the stator core.
The present disclosure is to control a size of a coil end portion.
According to an aspect of the present invention, a coil comprises: a center portion arranged in a slot of a stator core; and an end portion protruding in an axial direction from the stator core, wherein the end portion has a first portion, and a second portion thinner than a thickness of the first portion.
According to the present disclosure, a size of a coil end portion can be controlled.

The segment conductors 20U of the U-phase coil 5U and the segment conductors 20V of the V-phase coil 5V are alternately arranged in the radial direction. Since the part of the V-phase coil 5V is arranged between the parts of the U-phase coil 5U, the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V are overlapped, and the coil set 31 of the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V is formed.
Similarly, since a part of the W-phase coil 5W is arranged between parts of the V-phase coil 5V, the V-phase coil 5V and the W-phase coil 5W are overlapped, and the coil set 32 of the V-phase coil 5V and the W-phase coil 5W is formed. Since a part of the U-phase coil 5U is arranged between parts of the W-phase coil 5W, the W-phase coil 5W and the U-phase coil 5U are overlapped, and the coil set 33 of the W-phase coil 5W and the U-phase coil 5U is formed. A stator core 4 supports each of the coil set 31, the coil set 32, and the coil set 33.
[Manufacturing Method]
In a case where the coil set 31 is manufactured, first, each of the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V is manufactured.

Each of the first bent portions 412D is bent in such a manner that a corner portion on the inner side in the radial direction of the first bent portion 412D protrudes toward the inner side in the radial direction. Each of the second bent portions 412E is bent in such a manner that a corner portion on the outer side in the radial direction of the second bent portion 412E protrudes toward the outer side in the radial direction.

The second end portions 412B are inclined on the outer side in the radial direction toward the one side in the circumferential direction. The third end portions 412C are inclined on the inner side in the radial direction toward the one side in the circumferential direction.

As illustrated in
The end portions 422 include fourth end portions 422A respectively continuous with the ends in the axial direction of the center portion 421, and fifth end portions 422B respectively continuous with ends on the one side in the circumferential direction of the fourth end portions 422A.

The center portions 421 are arranged on the inner side of the slots 9 of the stator core 4. The end portions 422 protrude in the axial direction from the stator core 4. The center portions 421 form the coil center portion 51. Each of the end portions 422 forms the coil end portion 52.
As illustrated in
The first coil piece 41 and the second coil piece 42 may be connected by welding, may be connected by caulking, may be connected by press-fitting, or may be connected by pressure-welding of an end surface of the third end portion 412C and an end surface of the fifth end portion 422B.
Each of the segment conductors 20U includes center portions 510 arranged in the slots 9 of the stator core 4, and end portions 520 protruding in the axial direction from the stator core 4. The center portions 510 of the segment conductor 20U include the center portion 411 of the first coil piece 41 and the center portion 421 of the second coil piece 42. The end portions 520 of the segment conductor 20U include the end portions 412 of the first coil piece 41 and the end portions 422 of the second coil piece 42.
As described above, the thickness D2 of the end portions 422 is smaller than the thickness D1 of the end portions 412. Since the first coil piece 41 and the second coil piece 42 are connected, each of the end portions 520 of the segment conductor 20U includes a first portion 521, and a second portion 522 thinner than a thickness of the first portion 521. The first portion 521 includes the end portion 412 of the first coil piece 41. The second portion 522 includes the end portion 422 of the second coil piece 42. The thickness D1 of the first portion 521 is larger than the thickness D2 of the second portion 522. In the present embodiment, the thickness D1 of the first portion 521 is twice the thickness D2 of the second portion 522. For example, in a case where the thickness D2 is 0.4 mm, the thickness D1 is set to 0.8 mm.
Also, a cross-sectional area of the first portion 521 is larger than a cross-sectional area of the second portion 522.
Also, a thickness of the center portion 411 is equal to the thickness D1 of the first portion 521 and is larger than the thickness D2 of the second portion 522. The thickness of the center portion 421 is equal to the thickness D2 of the second portion 522. A cross-sectional area of the center portion 411 is equal to the cross-sectional area of the first portion 521.
In such a manner, in the present embodiment, the first portion 521 including the end portion 412 of the first coil piece 41 and the second portion 522 including the end portion 422 of the second coil piece 42 thinner than the thickness D1 of the first portion 521 are connected, whereby the segment conductor 20U of the U-phase coil 5U is formed.
A plurality of the segment conductors 20U in a manner illustrated in
After each of the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V is manufactured, a part of the segment conductors 20V of the V-phase coil 5V is arranged between the segment conductors 20U of the U-phase coil 5U. As illustrated in
As an example of the arrangement method, a spiral-shaped winding wires are appropriately extended in the radial direction, and then combined while being guided by a jig or the like, which simulates a stator shape, in such a manner that coil end portions of different phases are alternately overlapped in the radial direction. Then, the extended winding wires are compressed in the radial direction, and a shape is fixed by mechanical or thermal treatment.
The U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V are overlapped in such a manner that the second portions 522 of the segment conductors 20U of the U-phase coil 5U and the second portions 522 of the segment conductors 20V of the V-phase coil 5V are alternately arranged in the radial direction, whereby the coil set 31 of the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V is manufactured. Similarly, in each of the coil end portions 52, the V-phase coil 5V and the W-phase coil 5W are overlapped in such a manner that the second portions 522 of the V-phase coil 5V and the second portions 522 of the W-phase coil 5W are alternately arranged in the radial direction, whereby the coil set 32 of the V-phase coil 5V and the W-phase coil 5W is manufactured. In each of the coil end portions 52, the W-phase coil 5W and the U-phase coil 5U are overlapped in such a manner that the second portions 522 of the W-phase coil 5W and the second portions 522 of the U-phase coil 5U are alternately arranged in the radial direction, whereby the coil set 33 of the W-phase coil 5W and the U-phase coil 5U is manufactured (Process PR1).
Each of the coil end portions 52 of the coil set 31, the coil set 32, and the coil set 33 has the first portions 521 and the second portions 522. After the coil set 31, the coil set 32, and the coil set 33 are manufactured, the coil set 31, the coil set 32, and the coil set 33 are respectively inserted into the slots 9 from the inner side in the radial direction. Each of the U-phase coil 5U, the V-phase coil 5V, and the W-phase coil 5W is attached to the stator core 4 in such a manner that the first portions 521 and the second portions 522 protrude in the axial direction from the stator core 4.
As illustrated in
After the coil set 31, the coil set 32, and the coil set 33 are respectively inserted into the slots 9, the plurality of coils 5 is connected by a wire connection member (Process PR3).
In the middle of the coil manufacturing process, appropriate insulation processing between the coils and the stator, or between the coils in the same phase or in different phases is performed.
From the above, the stator 2 is manufactured.
[Effect]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, each of the end portions 520 of the coils 5 has the first portions 521 and the second portions 522 thinner than the thickness of the first portions 521. For example, in a case where the coil set 31 is formed, the U-phase coil 5U and the V-phase coil 5V are overlapped in such a manner that the second portions 522 of the U-phase coil 5U and the second portions 522 of the V-phase coil 5V are alternately arranged in the radial direction in each of the coil end portions 52, whereby the size of the coil end portion 52 can be controlled.
For example, in a case where the thickness of the end portions 520 of the segment conductors 20 is uniform, the coil end portions 52 become large when the plurality of coils 5 overlaps in the coil end portions 52. The coil end portions 52 do not contribute to generation of torque by the motor 1. Thus, when the coil end portions 52 become large, the motor 1 increases in size although the torque generated by the motor 1 does not increase. As a result, torque density of the motor 1 decreases. The torque density means a value acquired by division of the torque, which can be generated by the motor 1, by mass or volume of the motor 1. The torque density is preferably large.
According to the present embodiment, the second portions 522 of the two coils 5 overlap in each of the coil end portions 52. Also, in the coil end portion 52, the first portions 521 of the coils 5 do not overlap with the other coils 5. Thus, the coil end portion 52 is prevented from becoming large. Thus, an increase in size of the motor 1 is controlled.
In the present embodiment, the thickness D2 of the second portions 522 is larger than the thickness D1 of the first portions 521. The thickness D2 of the second portions 522 is half the thickness D1 of the first portions 521. Thus, as described with reference to
In the present embodiment, the motor 1 satisfies the conditions of the expression (1) and expression (2). In the 7-pole 12-slot motor 1, the coils 5 can be arranged at a pitch of two slots. Thus, the size of the coil end portions 52 can be controlled.
For example, in a case where coils are arranged at a pitch of three slots, three coils overlap in a coil end portion. As a result, the coil end portion becomes large. According to the present embodiment, the number of overlapping coils 5 in each of the coil end portions 52 is two. Thus, the coil end portion 52 is prevented from becoming large. Thus, an increase in size of the motor 1 is controlled.
Also, for example, the motor 1 having the coils 5 arranged at a pitch of two slots can generate larger torque than a motor having coils arranged at a pitch of one slot. That is, the motor 1 can generate sufficient torque since the coils are arranged at a pitch of two slots. Thus, a decrease in the torque density of the motor 1 is controlled.
Also, a coil pitch Ic of the two-slot pitch is smaller than a coil pitch of the three-slot pitch. Thus, according to the present embodiment, phase resistance of the coils 5 is reduced as compared with the three-slot pitch. Thus, deterioration in performance of the motor 1 is controlled. Although a resistance value increases in a portion with a small plate thickness in the segment conductors 20, the coil end portions 52 are easily hit by a refrigerant and are easily cooled. Thus, a problem is unlikely to be generated.
Also, in the present embodiment, since seven poles and 12 slots are employed, coil sets in each of which two coils 5 are combined can be molded and then the coil sets can be inserted into the slots 9 from the inner side in the radial direction. According to the present embodiment, for example, it is possible to insert the molded coils 5 (coil set) wound in a bobbin shape into the slots 9 of the stator core 4 without employing a split stator core. Thus, the motor 1 can be easily manufactured.
In the present embodiment, the teeth 10 include the first tooth 101 in which the end surface 10A and the end surface 10B face two coils 5, the second tooth 102 in which the end surface 10A and the end surface 10B face one coil 5, and the third tooth 103 in which the end surface 10A and the end surface 10B face no coil 5. The first tooth 101 is arranged on the inner side of the openings 11 of the two coils 5. The second tooth 102 is arranged on the inner side of the opening 11 of the one coil 5. The third tooth 103 is not arranged on the inner side of the openings 11 of the coils 5. In the circumferential direction, the size R1 of the first tooth 101 is the smallest, the size R2 of the second tooth 102 is the second smallest after the first tooth 101, and the size R3 of the third tooth 103 is the largest. The inventor of the present invention has found that the torque generated by the motor 1 is improved when the first tooth 101, the second tooth 102, and the third tooth 103 satisfy the condition of [R1<R2<R3]. It is considered that this is because a leakage flux is reduced and a magnetic flux can appropriately flow when the stator 2 is designed to satisfy the condition of [R1<R2<R3]. When the condition of [R1<R2<R3] is satisfied, the motor 1 can generate large torque.
The coil pitch Ic and the pole pitch Ip are determined in such a manner that the two coil center portions 51 of each of the coils 5 and the two adjacent rotor core pieces 7 face each other in the rotation of the rotor 3, whereby the motor 1 can generate torque appropriately.
As described above, for example, in a case where a coil set 31 is inserted into the slots 9, the other coil center portion 51 of a U-phase coil 5U is arranged in the first slot 91, the other coil center portion 51 of a V-phase coil 5V is arranged in the second slot 92, one coil center portion 51 of the U-phase coil 5U is arranged in the third slot 93, and one coil center portion 51 of the V-phase coil 5V is arranged in the fourth slot. Since the inner surface 91A of the first slot 91, the inner surface 92A of the second slot 92, the inner surface 93A of the third slot 93, and the inner surface 94A of the fourth slot 94 have the nearly parallel shapes, the coil set 31 is smoothly inserted into the slots 9.
In the above-described embodiment, each of the end portions 520 includes the first portion 521 and the second portion 522, and the thickness D2 of the second portion 522 is thinner than the thickness D1 of the first portion 521. An end portion 520 may include a first portion 521 and a second portion 522, and a cross-sectional area of the second portion 522 may be smaller than a cross-sectional area of the first portion 521. In this case, a thickness D1 of the first portion 521 and a thickness D2 of the second portion 522 may be the same, and the cross-sectional area of the second portion 522 may be smaller than the cross-sectional area of the first portion 521.
In the above-described embodiment, the rotor 3 is arranged on the inner side (inner peripheral side) of the stator core 4, and the motor 1 is an inner rotor-side motor. The rotor 3 only needs to be arranged at a position facing the stator core 4. A motor 1 may be an outer rotor-type motor in which a rotor 3 is arranged on an outer peripheral side of a stator core 4, a dual rotor-type motor in which rotors 3 are arranged on both an inner peripheral side and an outer peripheral side of a stator core 4, or an axial gap-type motor in which a rotor 3 is arranged on a side in an axial direction of a stator core 4.
Note that it is assumed in the above-described embodiment that the motor 1 is a segment-type switched reluctance motor. A motor 1 may be a switched reluctance motor provided with pole teeth, a synchronous reluctance motor, a flux switching motor, a permanent magnet motor, an induction motor, an axial gap motor, or a linear actuator.
It is assumed in the above-described embodiment that the motor 1 is a three-phase motor. A motor 1 may be a four-phase motor. In this case, when the number of poles of a rotor is P, the number of slots of a stator core is S, and a natural number is N,
