Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent poor voltage withstand strength due to drooped wires of a winding by integrally forming with resin a main body of a donut-like winding protective cover which has a U-shaped recess that forms a ring and a movable cover 3 which is installed near an outer side face of the main body of the winding protective cover and which covers an outer side face and a bottom face of a coil end. CONSTITUTION: A winding protective cover 1 is made by integrally forming with resin a donut-like main body 2 which has a U-shaped recess that forms a ring and which covers an upper face, an inner side face, and an outer side face of a coil end and a movable cover 3 which is installed on the outer side face of the main body 2 and which covers the outer side face and a bottom face of the coil end. By covering the coil end with the main body 2 of the winding protective cover, the jutting of a winding from the upper face, the inner side face, or the outer side face of the coil end is prevented. Due to this structure, drooped wires of the winding are never brought into contact with a core and thereby poor voltage withstand strength can be avoided.

2. Description of the Related Art In a stator of an electric motor used for a washing machine or the like, the stator has a ring-shaped winding wire housed in a slot of a core. In addition, while moving this stator to the next process line (or in the case of a mold motor,
During molding), one or more of the winding portions, so-called coil ends, protruding from the slot of the core may protrude for some reason and come into contact with the core of the stator, resulting in poor pressure resistance. . Therefore, in the conventional electric motor, a winding protection cover is used to prevent the winding from protruding, thereby taking measures against this breakdown voltage failure.
