• a multi-pole synchronous ring generator of a gearless wind turbine has a plurality of stator poles, in particular at least 48 stator teeth, often even significantly more stator teeth, in particular 96 stator teeth or even more stator teeth.
• the magnetically active region of the generator namely both the rotor, which can also be referred to as a rotor, and the stator is arranged in an annular region around the axis of rotation of the synchronous generator.
• a range of 0 to at least 50 percent of the radius of the air gap is free of materials that carry electrical current or electric field of the synchronous generator.
• this interior is completely free and basically accessible. Frequently, this range is also more than 0 to 50 percent of the air gap radius, in particular up to 0 to 70 percent or even 0 to 80 percent of the air gap radius.
• a support structure may be present in this inner region, but in some embodiments it may be formed axially offset.
• the synchronous generator thus has a rotor and a stator.
• the rotor is sometimes referred to as a runner in order to achieve a distinction to the aerodynamic rotor of the wind turbine linguistically.
• the stator is provided with teeth and grooves therebetween. The grooves receive a stator winding, or a plurality of stator windings, so that the stator winding is thus arranged through the slots and around the teeth.
• the stator is divided in the circumferential direction in stator segments, each having a plurality of teeth and a plurality of grooves and at least two stator segments are circumferentially offset from each other or entangled.
• All the stator segments are arranged in the circumferential direction next to each other and moreover, in particular about a quarter of a quarter, or another amount, interlocked or offset, namely such that grooves and teeth of a stator alternately uniformly in the circumferential direction and this uniformity in the transition to the next adjacent stator segment is interrupted by there is a wider or narrower groove, a wider or narrower tooth, or an additional - possibly narrower - tooth or an additional - possibly narrower - groove is arranged, or a tooth is omitted.

• the stator can be subdivided into four stator segments 1 to 4 and each stator segment, which is also only given by way of example, each have 12 stator teeth, so that the stator comprises a total of 48 teeth and to that extent would be a comparatively small multi-pole synchronous ring generator of a gearless wind energy plant.
• the first and third stator segment and thus the grooves and teeth of these two Stator segments would be compared to the second and fourth stator segment, ie offset or crossed their grooves or teeth.
• At least one tooth forms a stator pole and correspondingly two stator poles form a pole pair, which is used here in a simplified way for stator pole pair.
• a stator pole could also be formed from a plurality of teeth or a split tooth, which is not important here.
• the number of pole pairs of each stator segment is a multiple of two.
• the number of pole pairs of each stator segment is a multiple of six.

• a described stand-alone stator segment can be provided with three-phase windings, in particular even with two independent three-phase windings. Both three-phase windings can accordingly generate a three-phase current signal and the three-phase current signals of these two independent three-phase windings can be shifted from each other. This improves downstream rectification.
• the current signal can also simply be called current.
• stator segments are provided and the stator segments are grouped into two segment groups, each with two stator segments.

This makes it possible to independently wind each stator segment as described above and at the same time to provide the stator segments basically symmetrically, so that therefore all the stator segments are the same size, in simple terms, ie occupy respectively a quarter circle. Insofar as a tooth has been omitted in the transition between two adjacent and mutually entangled stator segments, this (omitted) tooth must nevertheless be counted. In other words, there would be a stator pole without a separate tooth or a stator pole pair with only one own tooth.

• Each phase is thus fed to a branch of this B12 bridge, which rectifies this phase in a known manner with two diodes.
• the rectified current of each of these phases is applied to a common DC link or other DC memory or DC memory.
• both segment groups are connected to a B12 bridge and both segment groups generate two three-phase currents which are rectified, a rectified overall signal with very few harmonics can be achieved.
• This is achieved in particular by virtue of the fact that at least two stator segments or two segment groups are offset or interlocked in the circumferential direction.
• the six phases of one segment group are again shifted relative to the six phases of the other segment group in such a way that their superimposition in the rectified overall signal is reduced and thus leads to the lowest possible harmonics.
• grooves and teeth of a respective stator are arranged equidistantly and the at least two stator segments in the circumferential direction offset or interlocked so that adjacent teeth of the adjacent stator segments or adjacent grooves of the adjacent stator segments have a different distance from each other, as adjacent teeth or grooves of the same stator segment ,
• the grooves and teeth are thus arranged equidistantly in each case within their stator segment, in particular in such a way that all the grooves of a stator segment and in particular of the entire stator have the same width, that is to say extent in the circumferential direction. except for grooves in the transition or contact area of two adjacent stator segments.

This therefore describes the distance, for example, the center of the first groove to the middle of the second groove or the center of the first tooth to the center of the second tooth. Preferably, this is identical to the average of each spacing of adjacent teeth of the entire stator.
• n is the number of groove pitches, that is, a number that is smaller by 1 than the number of grooves between the considered first and second groove and a number smaller by 1 than the number of teeth between the considered first and second grooves second tooth.
• the distance between the first and a further groove, wherein the further groove lies on a second stator segment, or the distance of the first tooth to a further tooth, which lies on the second stator segment, is n * a + v or n * av ,
• variable v here denotes the offset or the entanglement between the first and second stator segment. This entanglement is greater than 0, but smaller than the average groove spacing or average tooth spacing a. Whether this offset v is added or subtracted depends on whether the offset or the entanglement in the considered two stator segments is such that they are entangled or offset from one another, then the variable v would be subtracted, or they are offset from each other and in this case the variable v would be added.

For the next layer an expanded sheet or upset plate is provided in the respective area, which is, however, reversed with respect to the respectively underlying sheet, ie with the top down or bottom up. Due to the non-central arrangement of the stretch region or compression area changes its position by turning the sheet and thus it can be achieved with one and the same sheet overlapping, so not completely stacked stacking.
