Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rotary electric machine with a stator elastic support structure, which effectively reduces noise while preventing a heat deterioration of an elastic member in low cost.
  • the present invention is suitably applied to a vehicle AC generator.
  • an elastic member is inserted between a stator core and a frame for reducing a magnetic noise.
  • the elastic member has a structure where a rubber material is inserted between an outer metal cylinder and an inner metal cylinder.
  • each of U-shaped conductor segments is inserted into a pair of slots, and top parts of each conductor segment is connected to form a stator winding.
  • a stator core having a plurality of slots is disposed to be supported in a frame
  • a stator winding includes a plurality of conductor segments each of which is formed into an approximate U-shape having a pair of leg parts, and an elastic member is disposed between the stator core and the frame to be inserted therebetween.
  • the conductor segments are inserted into the slots of the stator core in such a manner that, the leg parts of each conductor segment penetrate through the slots from one end of the stator core to the other end thereof, and are connected at top ends.
  • the conductor segments are arranged to have a predetermined clearance between adjacent two thereof at both coil ends of the stator winding, into which air blown by a cooling fan flows. Accordingly, the clearances between the conductor segments define an air passage through which air blown by the cooling fan flows, and the stator winding can be effectively cooled. Because each the conductor segment has a large sectional area in a radial direction, heat generated by the stator core can be readily transmitted to the both coil ends of the stator winding. Therefore, the temperature of the stator winding can be effectively reduced without increasing dimensions of the stator core and the stator winding.
  • the elastic member when the elastic member is inserted between the frame and the stator core for reducing a magnetic noise, or when the conductor segments are covered by an insulation film, it can effectively prevent a heat deterioration of the elastic member or the insulation film, due to heat radiated from the stator winding and the stator core, in low cost.
  • the elastic member has a cylindrical elastic portion made of rubber, a first cylindrical metal portion integrated with an inner surface of the cylindrical elastic portion, and a second cylindrical metal portion integrated with an outer surface of the cylindrical elastic portion. Therefore, it is possible to strongly bonding the elastic member and the frame or the stator core, by using the elastic performance of the elastic portion and the strength of the first and second cylindrical metal portions.
  • the frame includes first and second frame parts separated in an axial direction of the rotor, the first and second frame parts are disposed to be fastened in the axial direction while press-contacting outer peripheral edge parts of the stator core through the elastic member. Therefore, the elastic member can be readily inserted between the stator core and the first and second frame parts.
  • the first and second frame parts are fastened through a fastening member such as a through bolt, and a reduction effect of the magnetic noise due to the elastic member and a reduction effect of vibration of the stator core can be arbitrarily adjusted.
  • the elastic member includes first and second ring-like elastic parts each of which has an approximate L-shaped cross-section in the axial direction. Therefore, the stator core can be accurately supported in the first and second frame parts through the ring-like elastic parts.
  • a middle part of an outer peripheral surface of the stator core in the axial direction is disposed to expose to an outside. Therefore, the exposed part of the outer peripheral surface of the stator core can be effectively cooled by an air flow, for example.
  • an inner peripheral surface of the frame has plural frame slots extending in the axial direction of the rotor at positions opposite to the stator core, and the elastic member includes plural elastic parts which are inserted into the frame slots to have elastic surfaces corresponding to the inner peripheral surface of the frame. Therefore, when an electrical power is generated, the elastic member is heat-expanded to protrude to a radial inner side and to elastically support the outer peripheral surface of the stator core.
  • the frame is disposed to define a liquid fluid passage through which a cooling fluid for cooling the stator core flows, and the elastic member is disposed between the frame and the stator core to directly contact the cooling fluid. Therefore, the magnetic noise can be reduced while the heat deterioration of the elastic member can be further effectively prevented.

  • the spaces between the elastic pieces 505 a can be used as a cool air passage, and the stator core 32 can be effectually cooled using the cool air passage.
  • Each of the elastic pieces 505 a of the elastic member 505 has a second structure similar to that of the elastic member 502 described in the third embodiment (FIGS. 7, 8).
  • plural slots 401 are provided in the inner peripheral surface of the frame 4 , for covering the outer peripheral surface of the stator core 32 , and plural elastic members 506 are inserted into the slots 401 .
  • each of the slots 401 has an approximate semi-circular shape in cross section, and exposed surfaces of the elastic members 506 inserted into the slots 401 define a part of the inner peripheral surface of the frame 4 .
  • the elastic members 506 can slightly protrude from the inner peripheral surface of the frame 4 .
  • the elastic members 506 are heat-expanded to protrude to the side of the stator core 32 . Therefore, the outer peripheral surface of the stator core 32 can be elastically supported by the elastic members 506 arranged in the peripheral direction with a predetermined pitch.
  • FIG. 15 A ninth preferred embodiment of the present invention will be now described with reference to FIG. 15.
  • a frame structure described in the first embodiment is changed. That is, as shown in FIG. 15, a frame is constructed by first and second sealed frames 4000 , 4001 which defines a water passage 100 through which water flows toward a radial outer side of the elastic member 50 .
  • the elastic member 50 is used as a seal material of the water passage 100 . Accordingly, cooling performance of the stator core 32 can be improved due to cooling water in the cooling water passage 100 . Thus, heat-deterioration of the elastic member 50 can be restricted, and magnetic vibration can be reduced.
  • the sealed frames 4000 , 4001 and the elastic member 50 define a sealed space, a cooling fan is not necessary. In this case, a frame strength can be improved, and the magnetic noise can be further reduced.
  • the metal ring 502 b , 503 b , 505 b of the elastic member 502 , 503 , 505 contacting the outer peripheral surface of the stator core 32 can engage with the stator core 32 .
  • the stator core 32 can be accurately assembled to an integrated frame 4 , and assembling operation of a rotary electric machine can be made simple.
  • the present invention is typically applied to the vehicle AC generator.
  • the present invention can be applied to a rotary electric machine other than the vehicle AC generator.
