This is a winding by a coil conductor 241 having a diameter d2 inserted through the portion 236b. As described above, d2> d1. Thus, by making the number of the windings with a large cross-sectional area the same as the number of the windings with a small cross-sectional area in the U1 phase and the U2 phase, similarly, in the V1 phase and the V2 phase, Circulating current can be prevented by making the number of the windings having a large cross-sectional area the same as the number of the windings having a small cross-sectional area in the W1 phase and the W2 phase.

  As shown in FIG. 4, lead wires of the respective stator windings 240 for the UVW three phases are drawn out to one coil end 249 (upper coil end 249 in the drawing) of the stator winding 240. The lead wire is drawn out corresponding to each of the U (U1, U2) phase, the V (V1, V2) phase, and the W (W1, W2) phase, and is connected to the power converter 600 described above.

The segment conductor inserted into the predetermined slot 236 is welded at both ends at one coil end 249 (the lower coil end 249 in the figure) to form a terminal weld 245. Therefore, the terminal welds 245 are arranged in an orderly manner at one coil end 249 (lower coil end 249 in the figure), and the other coil end 249 (upper coil end 249 in the figure) has a substantially U-shape. The central portions of the segment conductors are arranged in an orderly manner.

The rotating electrical machine 200 has cooling oil of about 1/3 of the housing volume in the housing. Therefore, when the rotor 250 rotates, the cooling oil is stirred and the rotating electrical machine 200 is cooled.

  As shown in the figure, at the coil end 249, the transition conductors 242 are arranged as close as possible to each other. When the coil end 249 is orderly in this manner, when the rotor 250 rotates, the cooling oil flows along the surface of the skewed portion of the crossing conductor 242, so that the stator winding 240 can be efficiently cooled. Can do.

  FIG. 12 is a diagram showing the arrangement of the coil conductors 241 in the stator core 232, and is a diagram showing slot numbers 01 to 18 in FIGS. 10 and 11. In this embodiment, 18 slots 236 are arranged for two poles, that is, at an electrical angle of 360 degrees. In each slot 236, four coil conductors 241 of the stator winding 240 are inserted. As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the number of slots per pole is 9, and the number of slots per pole per phase is NSPP = 3.

  Each coil conductor 241 is schematically shown as a rectangle, but actually has a circular cross section as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. In the rectangle that schematically represents the coil conductor 241, reference signs U <b> 11 to U <b> 26, V, and W that indicate the U phase, the V phase, and the W phase, and the direction from one coil end side to the opposite coil end side are shown. A cross mark “×” is shown, and a black circle mark “●” showing the opposite direction is shown. Note that only the U-phase coil conductor 241 is indicated by reference numerals U11 to U26 that represent the windings, and the V-phase and W-phase coil conductors 241 are indicated by reference numerals V and W that indicate phases.

  The twelve coil conductors 241 surrounded by a broken line in FIG. 12 are all U-phase coil conductors 241. As described above, the cross-sectional area of the coil conductor 241 inserted through the layers 1 and 2 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the coil conductor 241 inserted through the layers 3 and 4.

Therefore, the insulating paper attached to the slot 236 is prevented from being damaged. As a result, the rotating electrical machines 200 and 202 with high insulation reliability can be provided.

(2) Since the slot liner 247 disposed in the slot 236 is inserted after being bent into an S shape by bending a long insulating paper, a plurality of slot liners 247 are provided so as to exhibit a desired cross-sectional shape. Pre-forming such as folding is not required. As a result, the manufacturing process can be shortened.

For example, as shown in FIG. 13A, the slot liner 247 may be inserted into the slot 236 in a state where the insulating paper is bent so as to be B-shaped. As shown, two slot liners 247 bent in an S shape may be inserted into one slot 236.

(3) The slot insertion workability may be improved by preparing the insulating paper to be curved using a round bar before inserting the slot. Further, a part of the insulating paper may be lightly creased.

(4) The circular winding is not limited to a case where a plurality of substantially U-shaped segment conductors are connected after being inserted into the slots, and may be formed of continuous conductors.

(6) The rotating electrical machine is not limited to the induction motor, and may be a synchronous motor.
(7) The stator winding 240 is not limited to the case where it is mounted on the stator core 232 with full-pitch winding. The stator winding 240 may be wound with a short-pitch winding.

(8) The number of coil conductors 241 inserted through the first conductor housing portion 236a and the second conductor housing portion 236b is not limited to two. Three or more conductors or only one conductor may be inserted for each conductor housing portion.
(9) The coil conductors 241 are not limited to being arranged in a row in the radial direction. They may be arranged in two rows in the radial direction.
