  Then, the U-phase connecting wire Lu was fitted into the first connecting wire guide groove 16a of the first divided insulator 7a and the fourth connecting wire guide groove 36a of the third divided insulator 8a, respectively. Further, the V-phase connecting wire Lv was fitted into the second connecting wire guide groove 16b of the first divided insulator 7a and the fourth connecting wire guide groove 36a of the third divided insulator 8a. Further, the W-phase connecting wire Lw was fitted into the third connecting wire guide groove 16c of the first divided insulator 7a and the fourth connecting wire guide groove 36a of the third divided insulator 8a, respectively.

  As a result, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw are prevented from slackening when the divided cores C are formed into an annular shape. In addition, each of the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw is restricted from moving in the axial direction by the corresponding first to third crossover guide grooves 16a to 16c, and each of the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw is radially controlled by the fourth crossover guide groove 36a. Movement is restricted. Accordingly, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw are stably held by the first and second insulators 7 and 8.

  Furthermore, the first winding group G1 of each split core C in which the U-phase windings U1 to U4 are formed, the second winding group G2 of each split core C in which the V-phase windings U1 to U4 are formed, and The third winding group G3 in which the W-phase windings W1 to W4 are formed is prepared in advance. And just by uniting them, the divided cores C of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 before the divided cores C are connected in an annular shape are alternately arranged in one direction in a predetermined order. Can be articulated.

  In addition, when the U-phase first winding group G1 and the V-phase second winding group G2 are combined, the posture of each divided core C of the second winding group G2 is set to the first with the crossover Lv as the rotation center. Approximately 90 ° is inclined with respect to each divided core C of the winding group G1. Next, while each of the split cores C of the second winding group G2 is interposed between each of the split cores C of the first winding group G1 (position corresponding to the crossover line Lu) while being inclined by approximately 90 °, The V-phase connecting wire Lv is fitted into the second connecting wire guide groove 16b formed in the first split insulator 7a of the first winding group G1.

  Next, when the posture of each divided core C of the second winding group G2 interposed between each divided core C of the first winding group G1 is returned to the original state, each division of the first winding group G1 is performed. The U-phase connecting wire Lu formed between the cores C is fitted into the first connecting wire guide groove 16a formed in the first split insulator 7a of the second winding group G2.

  That is, it is easy only to tilt each divided core C of the second winding group G2 by about 90 ° with respect to each divided core C of the first winding group G1 and return to the original position. The U-phase first winding group G1 and the V-phase second winding group G2 can be combined.

  In addition, when the W-phase third winding group G3 is combined with the combined first and second winding groups G1 and G2, the divided cores C of the combined first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are combined. On the other hand, it is arranged at a position in the anti-Z arrow direction. Then, the divided cores C of the third winding group G3 are moved in the direction of the arrow Z, and the crossover line Lu.1 between the first and second winding groups G1, G2 is moved. Lv is fitted into the fourth crossover guide groove 36a formed in the third divided insulator 8a of the third winding group G3. At this time, the W-phase connecting wire L of the third winding group G3 is fitted into the third connecting wire guide grooves 16c formed in the first divided insulators 7a of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2, respectively. .

  That is, the divided cores C of the third winding group G3 can be easily combined with the divided cores C of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 arranged in the combined manner by simply moving them in the Z arrow direction. It is possible.

  And each start end part LSu, LSv, Lsw and each end part LEu, LEv, LEw of the 1st-3rd coil groups G1-G3 are pulled out to the axial direction one side, and respectively correspond U phase, V phase, and W phase Connect to each power line. The U-phase driving power is supplied to the windings U1 to U4 of the first winding group G1, the V-phase driving power is supplied to the windings V1 to V4 of the second winding group G2, and the third W-phase drive power is supplied to the windings W1 to W4 of the winding group G3.

Accordingly, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, Lw can all be arranged along the annular portion R of the stator core 6.

  (5) The first end portions LSu, LSv, and Lsw and the end portions LEu, LEv, and LEw of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 are drawn out to the corresponding U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase power lines, respectively. Since each is connected, there are few welding locations, and welding work becomes easy.

  (6) The connecting wires Lu, Lv, and Lw of each phase are fitted to the first to third connecting wire guide grooves 16a to 16c formed in the first divided insulator 7a, respectively, and the third divided insulator. 8a is fitted into the fourth crossover guide groove 36a. Accordingly, it is possible to prevent the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw from slackening when the divided cores C are formed into an annular shape, and to stably hold the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw.

  (7) When the first winding group G1 of the U phase and the second winding group G2 of the V phase are merged, each of the second winding group G2 with respect to each divided core C of the first winding group G1 The split cores C can be easily combined by simply tilting the posture by 90 ° and returning it to the original posture.

  (8) When combining the W-phase third winding group G3 with the combined first and second winding groups G1 and G2, each of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 arranged in combination The split cores C of the third winding group G3 can be easily combined with the split cores C simply by moving them in the Z arrow direction.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of a stator provided in the brushless motor will be described.
The present embodiment is characterized by an insulator attached to the split core C, and is different from the first embodiment in that one type of insulator is attached to all the split cores C. Therefore, in the present embodiment, for convenience of explanation, the characteristic portions will be described in detail, and the common portions will be denoted by the same reference numerals and detailed description will be omitted.

  In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 10A to 10C, the first insulator 7 including the first and second divided insulators 7a and 7b described in the first embodiment includes all the divided cores C. Are attached to each.

  And the method (winding group creation process) which winds a coil | winding to each division | segmentation core C of 1st and 2nd winding group G1, G2 which mounted | wore with the 1st insulator 7 is the same as 1st Embodiment. . In addition, the method of winding the winding around each divided core C of the third winding group G3 to which the first insulator 7 is attached is except that the connecting wire Lw corresponding to the third connecting wire guide groove 16c is fitted. This is basically the same as other winding groups, and is omitted for convenience of explanation.

Next, a winding group combining step for combining the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 will be described.
(Combination of first winding group G1 and second winding group G2 (first combining step))
The combination of the first winding group G1 and the second winding group G2 is performed by the same method as in the first embodiment (see FIGS. 6 and 7).

  That is, when the first winding group G1 of the U phase and the second winding group G2 of the V phase are combined, the posture of each of the divided cores C of the second winding group G2 is determined with the crossover Lv as the rotation center. Approximately 90 ° is inclined with respect to each divided core C of the winding group G1. Next, while each of the split cores C of the second winding group G2 is interposed between each of the split cores C of the first winding group G1 (position corresponding to the crossover line Lu) while being inclined by approximately 90 °, The V-phase connecting wire Lv is fitted into the second connecting wire guide groove 16b formed in the first split insulator 7a of the first winding group G1.

  Next, the posture of each divided core C of the second winding group G2 interposed between each divided core C of the first winding group G1 is returned to the original state. At this time, the U-phase connecting wire Lu formed between the divided cores C of the first winding group G1 is transferred to the first connecting wire guide groove 16a formed in the first divided insulator 7a of the second winding group G2. Fit.

  In this manner, the posture of each divided core C of the second winding group G2 is inclined by approximately 90 ° with respect to each divided core C of the first winding group G1, and then returned to the original posture. The U-phase first winding group G1 and the V-phase second winding group G2 can be easily combined.

(Combination of first and second winding groups G1, G2 and third winding group G3 (second combining step))
The merged first and second winding groups G1, G2 and the third winding group G3 are performed in the same manner as the merge of the first winding group G1 and the second winding group G2. .

  That is, when the third winding group G3 is combined with the combined first and second winding groups G1 and G2, the postures of the split cores C of the third winding group G3 are combined with the connecting wire Lw as the rotation center. The first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are inclined at an angle of approximately 90 ° with respect to the divided cores C.

  Next, as shown in FIG. 11, each split core C of the third winding group G3 is placed in a space between the split cores C of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 in an inclined state of approximately 90 ° (see FIG. 11). It is arranged at a position corresponding to the space of one divided core C). At this time, the W-phase connecting wire Lw is fitted into the third connecting wire guide groove 16c formed in the first split insulator 7a of the first and second winding groups G1, G2.

  Next, the posture of each divided core C of the third winding group G3 interposed between the divided cores C of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 is returned to the original state. At this time, the U-phase and V-phase connecting lines Lu and Lv formed between the divided cores C of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are supplied to the first divided insulator 7a of the third winding group G3. The formed first and second crossover guide grooves 16a and 16b are respectively fitted.

  In this way, the posture of each divided core C of the third winding group G3 is inclined by approximately 90 ° with respect to the respective divided cores C of the first and second winding groups G1, G2, and the original posture It is possible to easily combine the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 by simply returning them to.

After combining the first to third winding groups G1 to G3, like the first embodiment, the stator 3 is formed in an annular shape.
As described above in detail, the second embodiment has substantially the same effects as the effects (1) to (5) described in the first embodiment. Moreover, in addition to these, it has the following effects.

(9) According to the above embodiment, since only one type of first insulator 7 is used, the number of parts is reduced, and manufacturing costs and parts management are facilitated.
(10) According to the above-described embodiment, since the operations to be combined are all operations that rotate the posture of the split core C and return it to the original posture, the operation to be combined is simplified and the manufacturing system can be constructed at low cost. it can.

In addition, you may change each said embodiment as follows.
-In the said 2nd Embodiment, as demonstrated in 1st Embodiment, the assembly which consists of many winding groups formed continuously with one conducting wire L is made into each 1st-3rd winding. It forms about group G1-G3, respectively. And you may implement so that one 1st-3rd winding group G1-G3 may each be made beforehand from each aggregate | assembly.

[Other coalescing methods]
In the winding group combining step of the second embodiment, first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are first combined in the first combining step, and the first and second combined in the subsequent second combining step. Although winding group G1, G2 and 3rd winding group G3 were united, it is not specifically limited to this manufacturing method, For example, it is good also as the uniting method shown in FIGS.

(Winding group placement process)
First, the winding group arrangement | positioning process which arrange | positions the 1st-3rd winding group G1-G3 by predetermined | prescribed positional relationship is performed. In this step, first, the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 are arranged as shown in FIGS. At this time, in each of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3, the divided cores C are arranged in a straight line with a certain distance D (see FIG. 10) from each other, as in the second embodiment. Is done.

  The first and second winding groups G1, G2 are arranged so that the tooth portions T of the divided cores C face in opposite directions. In FIG. 13, the tooth portion T of the split core C of the first winding group G1 faces downward, and the tooth portion T of the split core C of the second winding group G2 faces upward. At this time, the first crossover guide grooves 16a of the first split insulators 7a of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are in the teeth direction of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 (vertical direction in FIG. 13). ), The first and second winding groups G1, G2 are arranged so as to face each other.

  The third winding group G3 is disposed at a position that is lateral to the first winding group G1 and that faces the second winding group G2 in the vertical direction in FIG. At this time, the third winding group G3 is arranged such that the tooth direction (the direction in which the tooth portion T of the third winding group G3 faces) is orthogonal to the tooth direction of the first winding group G1. Located on the side of G1. At this time, the U-phase connecting wire Lu of the first winding group G1 and the W-phase connecting wire Lw of the third winding group G3, which are linearly parallel to each other, are in the tooth direction of the third winding group G3. The distance between the connecting lines Lu and Lw is equal to the distance between the first connecting line guide groove 16a and the third connecting line guide groove 16c.

  Next, from the arrangement of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3, the direction of the second winding group G2 with respect to the first and third winding groups G1 and G3 (the anti-teeth of the second winding group G2). It is a direction and is assembled in the lower part in FIG. As a result, as shown in FIG. 14, the first and third connecting wire guide grooves 16a and 16c of the first split insulator 7a of the second winding group G2 are connected to the connecting wire Lu and the third of the first winding group G1. The connecting wires Lw of the winding group G3 are respectively fitted.

  As described above, in the winding group arranging step, the divided core of the first winding group G1 is based on the direction of the divided core C of the second winding group G2 (the direction in which the tooth portion T faces upward in FIG. 13). C is in a state inverted by 180 ° around the U-phase crossover Lu. Then, the split core C of the third winding group G3 is rotated by 90 ° in the anti-first winding group direction (clockwise direction in FIG. 14) around the W-phase connecting line Lw. That is, as shown in FIG. 14, the split cores C of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 are arranged at different positions around the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw.

(Winding group rotation process)
Next, a winding group rotation process is performed in which the divided cores C of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 are arranged in a line in one direction in the order of the U phase, the V phase, and the W phase. In this step, the divided cores C of the first and third winding groups G1 and G3 are rotated around their own crossover lines Lu and Lw, so that each of the divided cores C of the winding groups G1 to G3 is one. Lined up in a direction.

  In this example, first, as shown in FIG. 15 and FIG. 16, each split core C of the first winding group G1 is centered on the U-phase connecting line Lu, and the back surface side (counter teeth side) of the split core C. Rotate 180 °. At this time, the connecting lines Lv and Lw of the second and third winding groups G2 and G3 are fitted in the second and third connecting wire guide grooves 16b and 16c of the first divided insulator 7a of the first winding group G1, respectively. Combine. As a result, as shown in FIG. 16, the first winding group G1 and the second winding group G2 are arranged so that their divided cores C are aligned in one direction with the teeth portion T facing the same direction. The

  Then, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, each split core C of the third winding group G3 is rotated by 90 ° about the W-phase crossover Lw. At this time, the connecting wires Lu and Lv of the first and second winding groups G1 and G2 are fitted in the first and second connecting wire guide grooves 16a and 16b of the first divided insulator 7a of the third winding group G3, respectively. Combine. As a result, as shown in FIG. 18, the first to third winding groups G1 to G3 are arranged so that the divided cores C are arranged in a line in one direction with the teeth portion T facing the same direction. .

  The rotation order of the first and third winding groups G1, G3 is not limited to the above example, and the third winding group G3 may be rotated before the first winding group G1, Moreover, you may rotate them simultaneously.

  In the manufacturing method as described above, the split cores C of the winding groups G1 to G3 are crossed with each other while the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw are fitted in the crossover guide grooves 16a to 16c of the second winding group G2. A winding group arranging step for arranging the winding groups at different positions around the lines Lu, Lv, and Lw, and a winding group rotating step for rotating the first and third winding groups G1 and G3 with respect to the second winding group G2. Are separated. For this reason, it is not necessary to add the function to rotate the division | segmentation core C to the assembly jig | tool used at a coil group arrangement | positioning process.

  On the other hand, in the manufacturing method of the second embodiment, in each step of the first combining step and the second combining step, the winding group is slid and assembled in order to fit the connecting wire to the connecting wire guide groove. Assembly and rotation of the split core C are necessary, and an assembly jig that enables both of them must be prepared.

  That is, according to the examples shown in FIGS. 12 to 18 described above, a complicated assembly jig that enables both the slide assembly of the winding group and the rotation of the split core C is not required, and therefore, a cheaper manufacturing is possible. It is possible to construct a system and contribute to the downsizing of manufacturing equipment.

  Further, according to the above example, the second connecting line Lv having the V-phase connecting line Lv fitted into the second connecting line guide groove 16b (the guide groove in the middle of the first to third connecting line guide grooves 16a to 16c). The first and third winding groups G1, G3 are rotated so as to match the posture of the winding group G2. Therefore, the connecting wires Lu, Lv, and Lw are easily fitted in the first to third connecting wire guide grooves 16a to 16c formed in the first divided insulator 7a of the winding groups G1 to G3 of each phase. The winding groups G1 to G3 of the respective phases can be combined.

-In the said 2nd Embodiment, the 1st-3rd crossover guide groove 16a-16c was arranged in parallel with the 1st insulator 7 at the axial direction, and each crossover Lu, Lv, Lw was fitted.
As shown in FIGS. 19 (a) and 19 (b), the three yokes 12c are arranged on the outer surface in the axial direction and radially outward from the respective divided inner walls 13a and 13b. First to third crossover guide grooves 16a to 16c are formed in an arc shape along the divided annular portion Ca. The first connecting wire guide groove 16a has a U-phase connecting wire Lu, the second connecting wire guide groove 16b has a V-phase connecting wire Lv, and the third connecting wire guide groove 16c has a W-phase connecting wire. You may implement by assigning Lw, respectively.

  In this case, as shown in FIG. 20, for example, both end portions of each crossover line Lu of the first winding group G1 are fitted in the first crossover guide groove 16a of the first split insulator 7a. And, between the start end portion LSu and the termination end portion LEu, the first divided core C1 has a winding U1, the fourth divided core C4 has a winding U2, the seventh divided core C7 has a winding U3, and the tenth divided core C10 has a A first winding group G1 is formed in which the windings U4 are connected by a single conducting wire L with a certain distance D therebetween.

  In each of the above embodiments, the second divided insulator 7b is formed in the same shape as the first divided insulator 7a. You may implement this in the shape which abbreviate | omitted the division | segmentation inner walls 13a and 13b which formed the 1st-3rd crossover guide groove 16a-16c in the 2nd division | segmentation insulator 7b.

  Similarly, the fourth divided insulator 8b of the first embodiment is formed in the same shape as the third divided insulator 8a. However, in the fourth divided insulator 8b, the divided inner wall 33a formed with the fourth crossover guide groove 36a, You may implement in the shape which abbreviate | omitted 33b and the outer wall 36. FIG.

In each of the above embodiments, a parallel circuit can be configured by processing a connection line in the middle of the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw of the first to third winding groups G1 to G3.
For example, as shown in FIGS. 21A and 21B, in the first winding group G1, the terminal member 40 is electrically connected to the middle of the connecting wire Lu between the winding U2 and the winding U3. The start end portion LSu and the end end portion LEu are electrically connected to each other. Thus, a parallel circuit of the windings U1 and U2 and the windings U3 and U4 is formed between the start end portion LSu and the termination end portion LEu and the terminal member 40.

  For example, as shown in FIGS. 22A and 22B, in the first winding group G1, the folded portion 41 is formed by folding the intermediate portion of the connecting wire Lu between the winding U2 and the winding U3. At the same time, the start end portion LSu and the end end portion LEu are electrically connected to each other. Thus, a parallel circuit of the windings U1 and U2 and the windings U3 and U4 is configured between the start end portion LSu and the end end portion LEu and the turn-up portion 41.

21 and 22, the U-phase first winding group G1 has been described as an example, but the present invention can of course be applied to the second and third winding groups G2 and G3.
Further, for example, as shown in FIGS. 23A and 23B, the number of the split cores C of the winding group G is six, and one conductive wire L is wound around the split cores C continuously. By turning, U-phase windings Ua and Ub, V-phase windings Va and Vb, and W-phase windings Wa and Wb are formed in this order. A terminal member 51a is electrically connected in the middle of the connecting wire 50a (conductive wire L) formed between the winding Ub and the winding Va, and the connecting wire formed between the winding Vb and the winding Wa. The terminal member 51b is electrically connected to the middle of 50b (conductive wire L). Then, the winding start start end LS and winding end termination LE are electrically connected. Thereby, winding Ua, Ub, Va, Vb, Wa, Wb is comprised by the delta connection by which two windings were connected in series in each phase. In such a configuration, the winding group G has a configuration including different-phase windings Ua, Ub, Va, Vb, Wa, Wb.

  In each of the above embodiments, the split core C has a laminated structure of electromagnetic steel plates (plate-shaped core pieces), but other than this, for example, a green compact core, forging (cold forging), cutting, or the like is formed. It may be an integral block.

-In the 1st insulator 7 of each said embodiment, you may change the shape of each crossover guide groove 16a-16c as shown in FIGS. 24-26.
As shown in FIG. 24, each of the connecting wire guide grooves 16a to 16c is continuously connected to the straight portion 61 formed on the circumferential center portion side (opening portion 14 side) and the straight portion 61 on the circumferential direction outer side. And an arc portion 62. The straight portion 61 has a linear shape orthogonal to the radial direction (extending direction of the teeth covering portion 11) in plan view (viewed in the axial direction of the stator 3). The arc portion 62 has an arc shape centered on the central axis of the stator 3 in plan view. That is, in each of the crossover guide grooves 16a to 16c, the part from the center in the circumferential direction is linear, and the other parts near the outside in the circumferential direction are arcuate.

  As shown in FIG. 25A, the opening width of the linear portion 61 is narrowed by the protruding portion 61a formed in the radial opening portion. As a result, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw fitted in the straight portion 61 are locked in the radial direction with the protruding portion 61 a, and the crossover wires Lu, Lv, and Lw are difficult to come out from the straight portion 61 in the radial direction.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 25 (b), the arc portion 62 is not formed with a projection like the protruding portion 61a of the linear portion 61, and has a shape in which the opening width is not narrowed.
FIG. 26 shows an example of the first winding group G1 to which the first insulator 7 of FIG. 24 is attached. In a state where each crossover line Lu of the first winding group G1 is linear (a state before the split core annular forming step), the crossover line Lu is fitted into the straight line portion 61 of the crossover guide groove 16a to the back. The arc portion 62 partially enters in a state of being spaced apart (floating) in the radial direction.

  Then, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw also enter the arc portion 62 as far as possible through the split core annular process. Since the circular arc part 62 has a shape in which the opening width is not narrow as described above, the crossover lines Lu, Lv, and Lw smoothly enter the circular arc part 62 of each of the crossover guide grooves 16a to 16c.
