 本出願は、2018年9月25日に出願された日本出願番号2018-179510号に基づくもので、ここにその記載内容を援用する。 This application is based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2018-179510 filed on September 25, 2018, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
 本開示は、回転電機に関するものである。 The present disclosure relates to a rotating electric machine.
 従来、回転電機で生じるトルクリップルを低減するための技術として、例えば特許文献1に開示された回転電機が知られている。特許文献1に記載の回転電機では、複数のコアシートを積層して構成される固定子コアにおいて、ティース先端部の形状が、ティースの周方向の中心を通るティース中心軸に対して鏡面非対称に形成されるとともに、ティース先端部を互いに連結する連結部の周方向位置がずれるようにしてコアシートが積層される構成としている。より具体的には、複数のコアシートからなる第1コアブロックと、同じく複数のコアシートからなる第2コアブロックとを用い、第2コアブロックの表裏を逆にすることで、これら各コアブロックの連結部の周方向位置を互いに異ならせる構成としている。そしてこれにより、固定子の剛性を高めつつ、振動や騒音の低減を図るようにしている。 Conventionally, for example, a rotating electric machine disclosed in Patent Document 1 is known as a technique for reducing torque ripple generated in the rotating electric machine. In the rotating electric machine described in Patent Literature 1, in a stator core configured by stacking a plurality of core sheets, the shape of a tooth tip is mirror-asymmetric with respect to a tooth center axis passing through a center in a circumferential direction of the tooth. The core sheets are formed so as to be formed and to be shifted in the circumferential direction of connecting portions for connecting the tooth tip portions to each other. More specifically, by using a first core block composed of a plurality of core sheets and a second core block composed of a plurality of core sheets as well, by turning the second core block upside down, Are arranged so that the circumferential positions of the connecting portions are different from each other. Thus, vibration and noise are reduced while increasing the rigidity of the stator.
特許第6253849号公報Japanese Patent No. 6253849
 上記特許文献1に記載の回転電機では、複数のコアブロックを積層する際に、いずれかのコアブロックの表裏をひっくり返す必要があり、回転電機の製造設備の大型化や、製造コストの増加を招くことが懸念される。また、コアブロックの裏返しを無くすには、2種類のコアシートを用意し、それらコアシートを裏返すことなく順方向に積層していくことが考えられるが、かかる場合にも製造上の煩雑化が懸念される。つまり、コアブロックは、一般的に所望の形状にコアシートをプレス加工した後、各コアシートを積み上げていくことで作製されるが、プレス打ち抜き後において各コアブロックで形状の異なるコアシートを順方向に並べるには、コアブロックごとにプレス型を用意しなければならない。そのため、やはり製造上の煩雑化が懸念されることとなる。 In the rotating electric machine described in Patent Literature 1, when stacking a plurality of core blocks, it is necessary to turn over one of the core blocks, which leads to an increase in the size of manufacturing equipment for the rotating electric machine and an increase in manufacturing cost. It is concerned. In order to eliminate the turning over of the core block, it is conceivable to prepare two types of core sheets and stack the core sheets in the forward direction without turning over the core sheet. I am concerned. In other words, a core block is generally manufactured by pressing a core sheet into a desired shape and then stacking the core sheets. To arrange them in the direction, a press die must be prepared for each core block. For this reason, there is a concern about complication in manufacturing.
 本開示は、上記課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、その主たる目的は、製造の簡易化を図りつつ、トルクリップル低減を適正に実現することができる回転電機を提供することにある。 The present disclosure has been made in view of the above problems, and a main object of the present disclosure is to provide a rotating electric machine capable of appropriately realizing torque ripple reduction while simplifying manufacturing.
 以下、上記課題を解決するための手段、及びその作用効果について説明する。 手段 Hereinafter, means for solving the above-mentioned problems and the effects thereof will be described.

The rotating electric machine of the means 1 is
A rotor having a plurality of magnetic poles provided in a circumferential direction,
A stator disposed opposite to the rotor,
The stator includes an annular yoke, a stator core having a plurality of teeth extending from the yoke toward the rotor, and a multi-phase wound around a slot formed between the teeth. And a stator winding of
The plurality of teeth include a first tooth and a second tooth,
The first teeth are biased toward a first direction of a first direction and a second direction that are opposite to each other in a circumferential direction, and the second teeth are biased toward a second direction. ing.
 上記構成では、固定子コアに、周方向両側のうち第1方向の側に偏って第1ティースを設けるとともに、周方向両側のうち第2方向の側に偏って第2ティースを設ける構成とした。この場合、第1ティースに起因して発生するトルクリップルと、第2ティースに起因して発生するトルクリップルとを相殺させることができ、回転電機に生じるトルクリップルを好適に抑制することができる。 In the above configuration, the stator core is provided with the first teeth biased toward the first direction out of both sides in the circumferential direction and the second teeth biased toward the second direction out of both sides in the circumferential direction. . In this case, the torque ripple generated due to the first teeth and the torque ripple generated due to the second teeth can be offset, and the torque ripple generated in the rotating electric machine can be suitably suppressed.
 また、固定子コアの各ティースとして周方向に2種類のティース(第1ティース及び第2ティース)を各々設ける構成としたため、固定子の製造時において例えばコアシートの表裏を裏返して積層する等の工程が不要となる。そのため、回転電機を製造するための製造設備の簡易化やコストの低減を実現できる。 In addition, since two types of teeth (first teeth and second teeth) are provided in the circumferential direction as the respective teeth of the stator core, for example, when the stator is manufactured, the core sheet may be turned upside down and stacked. No process is required. Therefore, simplification of manufacturing equipment and cost reduction for manufacturing the rotating electric machine can be realized.
 手段2は、手段1において、前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースは、巻線収容領域である前記スロットよりも前記回転子側となる先端部の形状が互いに異なっており、前記第1ティースは、前記先端部において前記第1方向の側に偏って設けられた第1鍔部を有し、前記第2ティースは、前記先端部において前記第2方向の側に偏って設けられた第2鍔部を有している。 The means 2 is the means according to the means 1, wherein the first teeth and the second teeth are different from each other in a shape of a tip portion on the rotor side with respect to the slot which is a winding accommodating region, and the first teeth are A first flange portion provided at the distal end portion so as to be biased toward the first direction, wherein the second teeth are provided at the distal end portion so as to be biased toward the second direction.

The portion can suitably suppress torque ripple generated in the rotating electric machine. In this case, even if the slot for accommodating the conductor of the stator winding is kept in a conventional linear shape, in other words, without changing the configuration related to the winding of the stator winding from the general configuration, the desired shape can be obtained. In the circumferential direction. Therefore, it is possible to preferably realize the reduction of the torque ripple while facilitating the winding of the stator winding.
 手段3は、手段1において、前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースは、巻線収容領域である前記スロットに相当するスロット形成部分の径方向の向きが互いに異なっており、前記第1ティースは、前記スロット形成部分が前記第1方向の側に偏っており、前記第2ティースは、前記スロット形成部分が前記第2方向の側に偏っている。 The means 3 is the same as the means 1, wherein the first teeth and the second teeth are different in a radial direction of a slot forming portion corresponding to the slot, which is a winding accommodating region, and the first teeth are The slot forming portion is biased toward the first direction, and the second tooth has the slot forming portion biased toward the second direction.
 上記構成によれば、第1ティース及び第2ティースにおけるスロット形成部分の径方向の向きを互いに異ならせたことにより、回転電機に生じるトルクリップルを好適に抑制することができる。 According to the above configuration, the radial directions of the slot forming portions of the first teeth and the second teeth are made different from each other, so that the torque ripple generated in the rotating electric machine can be suitably suppressed.

The second teeth are provided so as to be biased toward the first direction by one offset angle, and the second teeth are provided so as to be biased toward the second direction at a second offset angle with respect to the straight line. The sum of the one offset angle and the second offset angle is “180 degrees / (2 × n × f)” or an electrical angle in order to reduce the torque ripple of order 2 × n × f (f is an integer of 1 or more) or It is near that.
 固定子巻線がn相の巻線よりなる構成では、固定子巻線への通電に伴い、2×n×f次(fは1以上の整数)のトルクリップルが生じることが考えられる。この点、上記構成では、第1ティースの第1偏り角度と第2ティースの第2偏り角度との和を、電気角で「180度/(2×n×f)」又はその付近とすることにより、2×n×f次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 (4) In a configuration in which the stator winding is formed of an n-phase winding, it is conceivable that 2 × n × f-order (f is an integer of 1 or more) torque ripple is generated as the stator winding is energized. In this regard, in the above configuration, the sum of the first deviation angle of the first teeth and the second deviation angle of the second teeth is set to an electrical angle of “180 degrees / (2 × n × f)” or its vicinity. Thereby, 2 × n × f-th order torque ripple can be suitably reduced.
 手段5は、手段1乃至3のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子巻線は、3相の巻線よりなり、前記第1ティースは、前記回転子の回転中心点を通る直線に対して第1偏り角度で前記第1方向の側に偏らせて設けられ、前記第2ティースは、前記直線に対して第2偏り角度で前記第2方向の側に偏らせて設けられており、前記第1偏り角度及び前記第2偏り角度の和が、電気角で12~18度又は27~33度となっている。 Means 5 is any one of means 1 to 3, wherein the stator winding is formed of a three-phase winding, and wherein the first teeth are arranged in a line with respect to a straight line passing through a rotation center point of the rotor. The second teeth are provided so as to be biased toward the first direction by one offset angle, and the second teeth are provided so as to be biased toward the second direction at a second offset angle with respect to the straight line. The sum of the one offset angle and the second offset angle is 12 to 18 degrees or 27 to 33 degrees in electrical angle.
 固定子巻線が3相の巻線よりなる構成では、固定子巻線への通電に伴い、6f次のトルクリップルが生じることが考えられる。この点、上記構成では、第1ティースの第1偏り角度と第2ティースの第2偏り角度との和を、電気角で12~18度(つまり15度若しくはその付近)又は27~33度(つまり30度若しくはその付近)とすることにより、12次又は6次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 (4) In a configuration in which the stator windings are formed of three-phase windings, it is conceivable that 6f-order torque ripple may occur with the energization of the stator winding. In this regard, in the above configuration, the sum of the first deviation angle of the first teeth and the second deviation angle of the second teeth is set to an electrical angle of 12 to 18 degrees (that is, 15 degrees or near) or 27 to 33 degrees ( In other words, by setting the angle to 30 degrees or around), the twelfth-order or sixth-order torque ripple can be suitably reduced.
 手段6は、手段1乃至3のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子巻線は、前記スロットに巻装された各3相の第1巻線及び第2巻線を有し、前記第1巻線及び前記第2巻線が、互いに電気角で30度の位相差を付与して通電されるようになっており、前記第1ティースは、前記回転子の回転中心点を通る直線に対して第1偏り角度で前記第1方向の側に偏らせて設けられ、前記第2ティースは、前記直線に対して第2偏り角度で前記第2方向の側に偏らせて設けられており、前記第1偏り角度及び前記第2偏り角度の和が、電気角で12~18度となっている。 Means 6 is any one of means 1 to 3, wherein the stator winding has first and second windings of three phases wound around the slots, respectively. The wire and the second winding are configured to be energized by giving a phase difference of 30 degrees in electrical angle to each other, and the first teeth are connected to a straight line passing through the rotation center point of the rotor. The second teeth are provided so as to be biased toward the first direction at a first bias angle, and the second teeth are provided so as to bias toward the second direction at a second bias angle with respect to the straight line. The sum of the first deviation angle and the second deviation angle is 12 to 18 degrees in electrical angle.
 上記構成によれば、第1巻線及び第2巻線を、互いに電気角で30度の位相差を付与して通電するようにしたため、6次のトルクリップルを低減することが可能となる。また、第1ティースの第1偏り角度と第2ティースの第2偏り角度との和を、電気角で12~18度(つまり15度若しくはその付近)とすることにより、6次より高次の12次のトルクリップルを低減することが可能となる。 According to the above configuration, the first winding and the second winding are energized by giving a phase difference of 30 degrees in electrical angle to each other, so that the sixth-order torque ripple can be reduced. Further, by setting the sum of the first deviation angle of the first teeth and the second deviation angle of the second teeth to an electrical angle of 12 to 18 degrees (that is, 15 degrees or near), a higher order than the sixth order can be obtained. The twelfth order torque ripple can be reduced.
 手段7は、手段1乃至6のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子コアは、周方向に並ぶ複数の前記第1ティースよりなる第1ティース群と、周方向に並ぶ複数の前記第2ティースよりなる第2ティース群とを有するとともに、前記第1ティース群と前記第2ティース群との間のティースとして設けられ、前記回転子に対向する対向面が、前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースよりも周方向に幅狭となっている第3ティースを有する。 The means 7 may be any one of the means 1 to 6, wherein the stator core comprises a first teeth group including a plurality of the first teeth arranged in a circumferential direction and a plurality of the second teeth arranged in a circumferential direction. And a second tooth group is provided as a tooth between the first tooth group and the second tooth group, and a facing surface facing the rotor is closer to the first tooth and the second tooth. Also has third teeth that are narrow in the circumferential direction.
 周方向一方(第1方向)の側に偏って設けられた第1ティースと、周方向他方(第2方向)の側に偏って設けられた第2ティースとを有する構成では、第1ティース及び第2ティースの偏り側が互いに向かい合う場合にティース同士が干渉することが考えられ、それに起因して、各ティースの偏りの角度を十分に大きくすることができないといった不都合が懸念される。この点、上記構成では、第1ティース群と第2ティース群との間に、回転子に対向する対向面が、第1ティース及び第2ティースよりも周方向に幅狭となっている第3ティースを設けたため、第1ティース及び第2ティースの互いの干渉を抑制し、ひいてはこれら各ティースの偏り角度を十分に大きくすることができる。 In a configuration having a first tooth biased toward one circumferential direction (first direction) and a second tooth biased toward the other circumferential direction (second direction), the first tooth and the second tooth When the biased sides of the second teeth face each other, the teeth may interfere with each other, and due to this, there is a concern that the bias angle of each tooth cannot be sufficiently increased. In this regard, in the above-described configuration, the third surface in which the facing surface facing the rotor is narrower in the circumferential direction than the first tooth and the second tooth between the first tooth group and the second tooth group. Since the teeth are provided, the interference between the first teeth and the second teeth can be suppressed, and the bias angle of each of the teeth can be sufficiently increased.
 手段8は、手段1乃至6のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子コアは、周方向に並ぶ複数の前記第1ティースよりなる第1ティース群と、周方向に並ぶ複数の前記第2ティースよりなる第2ティース群とを有するとともに、前記第1ティース群と前記第2ティース群との間であり、かつ前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースの各々の偏りが互いに近づく位置のティースとして設けられ、前記回転子に対向する対向面が、前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースよりも周方向に幅狭となっている第3ティースと、前記第1ティース群と前記第2ティース群との間であり、かつ前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースの各々の偏りが互いに離れる位置のティースとして設けられ、前記回転子に対向する対向面が、前記第1ティース及び前記第2ティースよりも周方向に幅広となっている第4ティースと、を有する。 Means 8 is any one of means 1 to 6, wherein the stator core comprises a first tooth group including a plurality of the first teeth arranged in a circumferential direction, and a plurality of the second teeth arranged in a circumferential direction. And a second tooth group is provided as a tooth between the first tooth group and the second tooth group and at a position where the bias of each of the first tooth and the second tooth is close to each other. Between a third tooth whose opposing surface facing the rotor is circumferentially narrower than the first tooth and the second tooth, and between the first tooth group and the second tooth group. And the first teeth and the second teeth are provided as teeth at positions where the deviations of the first teeth and the second teeth are separated from each other, and the opposing surfaces opposing the rotor are the first teeth and the second teeth. Having a fourth tooth which is wider in the circumferential direction than the teeth.
 上記構成では、第1ティース群と第2ティース群との間であり、かつ第1ティース及び第2ティースの各々の偏りが互いに近づく位置に、回転子に対向する対向面が、第1ティース及び第2ティースよりも周方向に幅狭となっている第3ティースが設けられている。これにより、第1ティース及び第2ティースの互いの干渉を抑制しつつ、これら各ティースの偏り角度を十分に大きくすることができる。 In the above configuration, the first tooth group and the second tooth group are located between the first tooth group and the second tooth group, and the positions of the first tooth and the second tooth approaching each other. A third tooth that is narrower in the circumferential direction than the second tooth is provided. This makes it possible to sufficiently increase the bias angle of each of the first and second teeth while suppressing interference between the first and second teeth.
 また、第1ティース群と第2ティース群との間であり、かつ第1ティース及び第2ティースの各々の偏りが互いに離れる位置に、回転子に対向する対向面が、第1ティース及び第2ティースよりも周方向に幅広となっている第4ティースが設けられている。これにより、周方向に隣り合うティース間の離間距離が局所的に過大になることを抑制することができる。 Further, between the first teeth group and the second teeth group, and at positions where the first teeth and the second teeth are separated from each other, the opposing surfaces facing the rotor are the first teeth and the second teeth. Fourth teeth that are wider in the circumferential direction than the teeth are provided. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the separation distance between the teeth adjacent in the circumferential direction from being locally excessive.
 手段9は、手段7又は8において、前記固定子コアにおいて、前記第1ティース群における前記第1ティースの数と、前記第2ティース群における前記第2ティースの数とが同じである。 (9) In the means (7) or (8), in the stator core, the number of the first teeth in the first teeth group is the same as the number of the second teeth in the second teeth group.
 上記構成によれば、第1ティース群における第1ティースの数と、第2ティース群における第2ティースの数とが同じであることから、トルクリップルの低減を適正に実施できる。 According to the above configuration, since the number of the first teeth in the first tooth group is the same as the number of the second teeth in the second tooth group, the torque ripple can be appropriately reduced.
 手段10は、手段1乃至9のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子コアは、複数のコアシートが積層されてなる積層鉄心であり、前記回転子の回転方向に転積した状態で、前記コアシートが積層されている。 The means 10 is the stator according to any one of means 1 to 9, wherein the stator core is a laminated core formed by laminating a plurality of core sheets, and the stator core is rolled in a rotating direction of the rotor. Sheets are stacked.
 上記のごとく第1ティースと第2ティースとを有する固定子コアでは、それら第1ティース及び第2ティースにおける周方向の偏りの差異に起因して、高次のトルクリップルにさらに2次のトルクリップルが重畳することが懸念される。この点、上記構成では、回転子の回転方向に転積した状態でコアシートが積層されているため、その回転方向の位置が異なるコアシート同士でトルクリップルの位相がずれ、結果的に2次のトルクリップルを低減することができる。 As described above, in the stator core having the first teeth and the second teeth, due to the difference in the circumferential deviation between the first teeth and the second teeth, a higher-order torque ripple is further added to the higher-order torque ripple. May be superimposed. In this regard, in the above configuration, since the core sheets are stacked in a state of being rolled in the rotation direction of the rotor, the phase of the torque ripple is shifted between core sheets having different positions in the rotation direction, and as a result, the secondary Torque ripple can be reduced.
 なお、圧延により電磁鋼板が製造され、その電磁鋼板によりコアシートが作製される場合には、コアシートを転積することにより、シート面に沿う方向(すなわち圧延方向に垂直となる方向)で磁気抵抗が異なっていてもその磁気抵抗を平滑化することが可能となる。 When a magnetic steel sheet is manufactured by rolling, and a core sheet is manufactured from the magnetic steel sheet, the core sheet is rolled to produce a magnetic sheet in a direction along the sheet surface (that is, a direction perpendicular to the rolling direction). Even if the resistance is different, the magnetic resistance can be smoothed.
 手段11は、手段1乃至10のいずれか1つにおいて、前記固定子巻線は、平角銅線により構成されている。 (11) The means (11) according to any one of the means (1) to (10), wherein the stator winding is made of a flat copper wire.
 固定子巻線を平角銅線により構成することにより、回転電機の電気装荷を大きくし、ひいては高出力化を実現することが可能となる。また、各ティースを周方向両側のいずれかに偏らせて設ける構成において、導線収容部分であるスロット形成部を直線状とし、その先端側を周方向に偏らせた構成とすれば、導線の巻装を容易化しつつ、導線の占積率を高めることができる。 By configuring the stator winding with a rectangular copper wire, it becomes possible to increase the electric load of the rotating electric machine and to realize a higher output. Further, in the configuration in which each tooth is provided so as to be biased to one of the two sides in the circumferential direction, if the slot forming portion, which is the conductive wire accommodating portion, is linear and the distal end side is biased in the circumferential direction, the winding of the conductive wire can be achieved. The space factor of the conductor can be increased while facilitating the mounting.

As shown in FIG. 3, the stator core 32 has four types of teeth 35A, 35B, 35C, 35D having different shapes, and the teeth 35A to 35D are provided side by side in the circumferential direction. Each of the teeth 35A to 35D has a shape of a tip 37 on the rotor 12 side (inward in the radial direction) with respect to the slot 31 which is the winding accommodating region, and more specifically, the tips 35 of the teeth 35 are different from each other. In the portion 37, the presence / absence and orientation of the flange portions on both sides in the circumferential direction are different from each other. In this specification, the teeth 35A to 35D are also referred to as a first tooth 35A, a second tooth 35B, a third tooth 35C, and a fourth tooth 35D.
 第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bは、先端部37に設けられた鍔部(換言すれば周方向に突出する突出部)の向きが、周方向において互いに逆となるティースである。すなわち、第1ティース35Aは、先端部37が周方向の時計回り方向(第1方向)となる向きで突出し、第2ティース35Bは、先端部37が周方向の反時計回り方向(第2方向)となる向きで突出している。 1The first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are teeth in which the directions of the flanges (in other words, the protruding portions that protrude in the circumferential direction) provided on the distal end portion 37 are opposite to each other in the circumferential direction. That is, the first teeth 35A project in the direction in which the distal end 37 is clockwise (first direction) in the circumferential direction, and the second teeth 35B are protruded in the counterclockwise direction (second direction) in the circumferential direction. ).
 固定子コア32は、周方向に並ぶ複数の第1ティース35Aよりなる第1ティース群G1と、周方向に並ぶ複数の第2ティース35Bよりなる第2ティース群G2とを有しており、それら第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との間のティースとして、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dが設けられている。第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2はティース数が同じであり、本実施形態ではこれら各ティース群G1,G2にそれぞれ29個ずつの第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bが設けられている。 The stator core 32 has a first tooth group G1 composed of a plurality of first teeth 35A arranged in a circumferential direction, and a second tooth group G2 composed of a plurality of second teeth 35B arranged in a circumferential direction. As teeth between the first tooth group G1 and the second tooth group G2, a third tooth 35C and a fourth tooth 35D are provided. The first tooth group G1 and the second tooth group G2 have the same number of teeth, and in the present embodiment, each of the tooth groups G1 and G2 is provided with 29 first teeth 35A and second teeth 35B. .
 ここで、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との境界部は周方向に2カ所あり、一方の境界部では、第1ティース35Aの鍔部と第2ティース35Bの鍔部とが互いに近づき、他方の境界部では、第1ティース35Aの鍔部と第2ティース35Bの鍔部とが互いに遠ざかるようになっている。そして、これら各境界部における第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの間のスペースに合わせて、第3ティース35Cと第4ティース35Dとがそれぞれ設けられている。言うなれば、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bは主ティースであり、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dは、各ティース群G1,G2の間の繋ぎとなる補助ティースである。また、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bは、周方向のいずれか一方に偏りを有することで周方向両側に非対称、すなわち回転子12の回転中心点(円中心)を通る直線L1の両側に非対称となるティースであり、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dは、周方向両側に対称、すなわち直線L1の両側に対称となるティースである。 Here, the boundary between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2 is two places in the circumferential direction, and at one boundary, the flange of the first teeth 35A and the flange of the second teeth 35B are mutually separated. The flanges of the first teeth 35A and the flanges of the second teeth 35B move closer to each other at the other boundary. A third tooth 35C and a fourth tooth 35D are provided in accordance with the space between the first tooth 35A and the second tooth 35B at each of these boundaries. In other words, the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are main teeth, and the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are auxiliary teeth serving as connections between the respective tooth groups G1 and G2. Further, the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are asymmetric on both sides in the circumferential direction due to having a bias in one of the circumferential directions, that is, on both sides of the straight line L1 passing through the rotation center point (circle center) of the rotor 12. The third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are asymmetric teeth on both sides in the circumferential direction, that is, teeth on both sides of the straight line L1.
 図4(a)は、固定子コア32の第1ティース35A、第2ティース35B及び第3ティース35Cを拡大して示す図である。 FIG. 4A is an enlarged view of the first teeth 35A, the second teeth 35B, and the third teeth 35C of the stator core 32.
 図4(a)に示すように、第1ティース35Aは、先端部37に、周方向の時計回り方向(第1方向)となる側に突出する鍔部51を有し、第2ティース35Bは、先端部37に、反時計回り方向(第2方向)となる側に突出する鍔部52を有している。この場合、第1ティース35Aでは、鍔部51が、周方向両側のうち一方の側に偏って設けられ、第2ティース35Bでは、鍔部52が、周方向両側のうち他方の側に偏って設けられており、その間に、これら各ティース35A,35Bとの干渉を避けるようにして、第3ティース35Cが設けられている。つまり、第3ティース35Cは、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに近づく位置に設けられ、回転子12に対向する対向面(図の下面)が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅狭となっている。 As shown in FIG. 4 (a), the first tooth 35A has a flange portion 51 at the distal end portion 37 that protrudes in the clockwise direction (first direction) in the circumferential direction, and the second tooth 35B has The end portion 37 has a flange portion 52 protruding in a counterclockwise direction (second direction). In this case, in the first tooth 35A, the flange portion 51 is provided to be biased to one of the circumferential sides, and in the second tooth 35B, the flange portion 52 is biased to the other side in the circumferential direction. The third teeth 35C are provided between them so as to avoid interference with the teeth 35A and 35B. In other words, the third tooth 35C is provided at a position where each of the first tooth 35A and the second tooth 35B is closer to each other, and the opposing surface (the lower surface in the figure) opposing the rotor 12 is the first tooth 35A and the third tooth 35A. It is narrower in the circumferential direction than the two teeth 35B.
 第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの鍔部51,52は、周方向両側のいずれかに延び、かつ先端側、すなわち回転子12側ほど周方向に幅広となる断面三角形状に形成されている。また、第3ティース35Cの先端部37は、鍔部51,52のスロット31側の傾斜に合わせて、周方向先細りとなる三角形のテーパ状に形成されている。なお、鍔部51が「第1鍔部」に相当し、鍔部52が「第2鍔部」に相当する。 The flange portions 51 and 52 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are formed in a triangular cross-section that extends to either side in the circumferential direction and becomes wider in the circumferential direction toward the tip end, that is, toward the rotor 12 side. . Further, the distal end portion 37 of the third tooth 35C is formed in a triangular tapered shape tapering in the circumferential direction in accordance with the inclination of the flange portions 51 and 52 on the slot 31 side. The flange 51 corresponds to a “first flange”, and the flange 52 corresponds to a “second flange”.
 また、図4(b)は、固定子コア32の第1ティース35A、第2ティース35B及び第4ティース35Dを拡大して示す図である。 FIG. 4B is an enlarged view of the first teeth 35A, the second teeth 35B, and the fourth teeth 35D of the stator core 32.
 図4(b)では、図4(a)との違いとして、第1ティース35Aの鍔部51と第2ティース35Bの鍔部52とが互いに遠ざかる向きに設けられており、その間に第4ティース35Dが設けられている。つまり、第4ティース35Dは、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに離れる位置に設けられ、回転子12に対向する対向面(図の下面)が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅広となっている。第4ティース35Dの先端部37には、周方向両側に、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの鍔部51,52と同形状の鍔部54が形成されている。 FIG. 4B is different from FIG. 4A in that the flange 51 of the first tooth 35A and the flange 52 of the second tooth 35B are provided in a direction away from each other, and the fourth tooth is located therebetween. 35D is provided. That is, the fourth tooth 35D is provided at a position where each of the first tooth 35A and the second tooth 35B is separated from each other, and the opposing surface (the lower surface in the figure) facing the rotor 12 is the first tooth 35A and the fourth tooth 35D. It is wider in the circumferential direction than the two teeth 35B. A flange 54 having the same shape as the flanges 51 and 52 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is formed on the distal end portion 37 of the fourth tooth 35D on both sides in the circumferential direction.
 ここで、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bを周方向に偏らせた角度について説明する。図4(a),(b)に示すように、第1ティース35Aは、回転子12の回転中心点を通る直線L1に対して偏り角度θm1で周方向に偏らせて設けられ、第2ティース35Bは、直線L1に対して偏り角度θm2で周方向に偏らせて設けられている。本実施形態では、各ティース35においてスロット31を形成する直線部分の中心線(ティース中心線)が直線L1と同じ向きになっており、偏り角度θm1,θm2は、ティース中心線に対する先端部37の偏りの角度として定義できる。 Here, the angle at which the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are biased in the circumferential direction will be described. As shown in FIGS. 4A and 4B, the first teeth 35A are provided in the circumferential direction at a bias angle θm1 with respect to a straight line L1 passing through the rotation center point of the rotor 12, and the second teeth 35A are provided. 35B is provided so as to be offset in the circumferential direction at an offset angle θm2 with respect to the straight line L1. In the present embodiment, the center line (teeth center line) of the straight portion forming the slot 31 in each tooth 35 is in the same direction as the straight line L1, and the deviation angles θm1 and θm2 are determined by the tip 37 of the tip 37 with respect to the tooth center line. It can be defined as the angle of bias.
 より具体的には、図5に示すように、先端部37の回転子対向面(図の下面)において周方向に中央となる位置、すなわち図中の周方向寸法W1,W2がW1=W2となる位置を中心点Pcとし、その中心点Pcと不図示の回転子中心点とを結ぶ直線を先端中心線L2とする。この場合、偏り角度θm1,θm2は、直線L1に対する先端中心線L2の傾きの角度となっている。なお、偏り角度θm1が「第1偏り角度」に相当し、偏り角度θm2が「第2偏り角度」に相当する。 More specifically, as shown in FIG. 5, the position of the tip portion 37 at the center in the circumferential direction on the rotor facing surface (the lower surface in the drawing), that is, the circumferential dimensions W1 and W2 in the drawing are W1 = W2. Is set as a center point Pc, and a straight line connecting the center point Pc and a rotor center point (not shown) is set as a front end center line L2. In this case, the deviation angles θm1 and θm2 are the inclination angles of the center line L2 with respect to the straight line L1. Note that the deviation angle θm1 corresponds to a “first deviation angle”, and the deviation angle θm2 corresponds to a “second deviation angle”.
 第1ティース35Aは、鍔部51が図の右側に突出していることにより、先端部37が図の時計回り方向に偏っており、その偏り角度がθm1である。また、第2ティース35Bは、鍔部52が図の左側に突出していることにより、先端部37が図の反時計回り方向に偏っており、その偏り角度がθm2である。 先端 The first tooth 35A has a tip portion 37 which is deviated clockwise in the drawing due to the flange 51 projecting to the right side in the drawing, and the deviation angle is θm1. In addition, the second tooth 35B has a front end 37 that is deviated in the counterclockwise direction in the figure because the flange 52 protrudes to the left in the figure, and the angle of deviation is θm2.
 具体的には、偏り角度θm1,θm2は、それぞれティース中心線(直線L1)に対する偏りの向きが互いに逆で、かつそれぞれ「1.5度」であるとすると、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける各先端部37の偏り角度の和は、「θm1+θm2=1.5度+1.5度=3度」となっている。また、θm1,θm2は機械角であり、機械角の偏り角度の和(θm1+θm2)を電気角の偏り角度の和θeに置き換えるには、機械角に極対数pを乗算すればよい。つまり、θe=p×(θm1+θm2)である。本実施形態では、p=5、θm1+θm2=3度であるため、θe=5×3度=15度となる。この場合、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を、電気角で15度とすることで、12次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 Specifically, assuming that the directions of the deviations θm1 and θm2 are opposite to each other with respect to the tooth center line (straight line L1) and are “1.5 degrees”, respectively, the first teeth 35A and the second teeth The sum of the deviation angles of the tip portions 37 at 35B is “θm1 + θm2 = 1.5 degrees + 1.5 degrees = 3 degrees”. Θm1 and θm2 are mechanical angles. To replace the sum of the deviation angles of the mechanical angles (θm1 + θm2) with the sum of the deviation angles of the electrical angles θe, the mechanical angle may be multiplied by the number of pole pairs p. That is, θe = p × (θm1 + θm2). In the present embodiment, since p = 5 and θm1 + θm2 = 3 degrees, θe = 5 × 3 degrees = 15 degrees. In this case, by setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 15 degrees in electrical angle, the twelfth-order torque ripple can be suitably reduced.
 なお、各ティース35A,35Bにおける偏り角度の和は15度付近であればよく、電気角で12度~18度の範囲内で適宜変更しても、12次のトルクリップルの低減が可能である。 The sum of the deviation angles of the teeth 35A and 35B may be around 15 degrees, and the twelfth order torque ripple can be reduced by appropriately changing the electrical angle within the range of 12 to 18 degrees. .
 図6は、回転電機10のトルク波形を示す図である。図6において、一点鎖線は、比較例として固定子コア32のティース35を周方向に偏らせていない従来の回転電機のトルク波形を示し、実線は、ティース35を周方向に偏らせた本実施形態の回転電機10のトルク波形を示す。一点鎖線で示すトルク波形では、12次のトルクリップルが生じているのに対し、実線で示すトルク波形では、12次のトルクリップルが大幅に低減されていることが分かる。 FIG. 6 is a diagram showing a torque waveform of the rotating electric machine 10. In FIG. 6, a chain line shows a torque waveform of a conventional rotating electrical machine in which the teeth 35 of the stator core 32 are not biased in the circumferential direction as a comparative example, and a solid line shows the present embodiment in which the teeth 35 are biased in the circumferential direction. 3 shows a torque waveform of the rotating electric machine 10 of the embodiment. It can be seen that the twelfth-order torque ripple is generated in the torque waveform indicated by the dashed-dotted line, whereas the twelfth-order torque ripple is significantly reduced in the torque waveform indicated by the solid line.
 回転電機10の変形例として、6次のトルクリップルを低減する場合には、固定子コア32において、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度θm1,θm2をそれぞれ「3度」とするとよい。この構成では、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける各先端部37の偏り角度の和は、「θm1+θm2=3度+3度=6度」となり、これを電気角の偏り角度の和θeに置き換えると、θe=5×6度=30度となる。この場合、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を、電気角で30度とすることで、6次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 As a modified example of the rotary electric machine 10, when reducing the sixth-order torque ripple, the bias angles θm1 and θm2 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B in the stator core 32 may be set to “3 degrees”. . In this configuration, the sum of the deviation angles of the distal ends 37 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is “θm1 + θm2 = 3 degrees + 3 degrees = 6 degrees”, which is replaced by the sum θe of the deviation angles of the electrical angles. And θe = 5 × 6 degrees = 30 degrees. In this case, by setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 30 degrees in electrical angle, the sixth-order torque ripple can be suitably reduced.
 なお、各ティース35A,35Bにおける偏り角度の和は30度付近であればよく、電気角で27度~33度の範囲内で適宜変更しても、6次のトルクリップルの低減が可能である。 The sum of the deviation angles of the teeth 35A and 35B may be around 30 degrees, and the sixth-order torque ripple can be reduced by appropriately changing the electrical angle within the range of 27 to 33 degrees. .
 回転電機10において、固定子巻線33として3相巻線以外の巻線を用いることも可能であり、例えば5相巻線を用いてもよい。この場合、固定子巻線33が、5相巻線よりなる構成では、例えば10次のトルクリップルを低減するに、固定子コア32において、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度θm1,θm2をそれぞれ「1.8度」とするとよい。この構成では、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける各先端部37の偏り角度の和は、「θm1+θm2=1.8度+1.8度=3.6度」となり、これを電気角の偏り角度の和θeに置き換えると、θe=5×3.6度=18度となる。この場合、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を、電気角で18度とすることで、5相巻線を有する回転電機において、10次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。なお、各ティース35A,35Bにおける偏り角度の和は18度付近であればよく、電気角で15度~21度の範囲内で適宜変更しても、10次のトルクリップルの低減が可能である。 In the rotating electric machine 10, it is also possible to use a winding other than a three-phase winding as the stator winding 33, for example, a five-phase winding may be used. In this case, in the configuration in which the stator winding 33 is formed of a five-phase winding, in order to reduce, for example, the tenth-order torque ripple, in the stator core 32, the deviation angles θm1 and θm1 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are set. θm2 may be set to “1.8 degrees”. In this configuration, the sum of the deviation angles of the distal ends 37 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is “θm1 + θm2 = 1.8 degrees + 1.8 degrees = 3.6 degrees”, which is the deviation of the electrical angle. If it is replaced with the sum of angles θe, θe = 5 × 3.6 degrees = 18 degrees. In this case, by setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 18 degrees in electrical angle, it is possible to suitably reduce the tenth-order torque ripple in the rotating electric machine having the five-phase winding. Can be. The sum of the deviation angles of the teeth 35A and 35B may be around 18 degrees, and even if the electrical angle is appropriately changed within the range of 15 to 21 degrees, the 10th-order torque ripple can be reduced. .
 要するに、固定子巻線33が、n相の巻線よりなる場合に、2×n×f次(fは1以上の整数)のトルクリップルを低減するには、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和が、電気角で「180度/(2×n×f)」又はその付近となっていればよい。上述したとおり巻線の相数nは3相や5相である。 In short, when the stator winding 33 is formed of an n-phase winding, the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35A are used to reduce the torque ripple of the order 2 × n × f (f is an integer of 1 or more). It is sufficient that the sum of the deviation angles at 35B is "180 degrees / (2 × n × f)" or a vicinity thereof in terms of the electrical angle. As described above, the number n of winding phases is three or five.
 図7に示すように、固定子コア32において、複数の第1ティース35Aよりなる第1ティース群G1と、複数の第2ティース35Bよりなる第2ティース群G2とを、2組以上設ける構成であってもよい。図7には、2組の第1ティース群G1及び第2ティース群G2を設ける構成を示している。図7では、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2とが周方向に交互に2つずつ設けられており、これら第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との間となる4カ所に2つの第3ティース35Cと2つの第4ティース35Dとが設けられている。 As shown in FIG. 7, the stator core 32 has a configuration in which two or more sets of a first tooth group G1 including a plurality of first teeth 35A and a second tooth group G2 including a plurality of second teeth 35B are provided. There may be. FIG. 7 shows a configuration in which two sets of the first tooth group G1 and the second tooth group G2 are provided. In FIG. 7, two first teeth groups G1 and two second teeth groups G2 are provided alternately in the circumferential direction, and are provided at four positions between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2. Two third teeth 35C and two fourth teeth 35D are provided.
 また、上記のごとく第1ティース35Aと第2ティース35Bとを有する固定子コア32では、それら第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの周方向における偏りの差異に起因して、高次のトルクリップルにさらに2次のトルクリップルが重畳することが懸念される。2次のトルクリップルが生じる原因としては、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dの形状が相違していることも考えられる。そこでその対策として、固定子コア32において、回転子12の回転方向(周方向)に転積した状態でコアシート32aを積層した構成、すなわち所定枚数のコアシート32aよりなるコアブロックを転積した構成とするとよい。 Further, as described above, in the stator core 32 having the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, the higher order torque ripple is caused by the difference in the circumferential deviation of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B. It is feared that the secondary torque ripple is further superimposed on the above. A possible cause of the secondary torque ripple is that the shapes of the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are different. Therefore, as a countermeasure, in the stator core 32, a configuration in which the core sheets 32a are stacked in a state of being rolled in the rotation direction (circumferential direction) of the rotor 12, that is, a core block including a predetermined number of core sheets 32a is rolled. It is good to have composition.
 具体的には、図8(a)~(e)に示す構成とする。図8(a)は、軸方向に複数のコアブロックが転積された状態を示す固定子コア32の斜視図であり、図8(b)~(e)は、周方向に所定角度で転積された状態のコアシート32aを示す斜視図である。なお、図8(b)~(e)では、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dを基準として各コアシート32aの回転角度を示している。各コアシート32a(コアブロック)は、軸方向において例えば30度ずつの角度でずらして転積されるとよい。ただし、その角度は45度、60度、90度等であってもよい。 Specifically, the configuration shown in FIGS. 8A to 8E is adopted. FIG. 8A is a perspective view of the stator core 32 showing a state in which a plurality of core blocks are rolled in the axial direction. FIGS. 8B to 8E show a state where the stator core 32 is rolled at a predetermined angle in the circumferential direction. It is a perspective view which shows the core sheet 32a of the piled state. 8B to 8E show the rotation angle of each core sheet 32a with reference to the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D. The core sheets 32a (core blocks) are preferably rolled while being shifted at an angle of, for example, 30 degrees in the axial direction. However, the angle may be 45 degrees, 60 degrees, 90 degrees, or the like.
 図9は、回転電機10のトルク波形を示す図である。図9において、一点鎖線で示す波形1は、比較例1として、固定子コア32のティース35を周方向に偏らせておらず、かつコアブロックを転積させていない回転電機のトルク波形を示し、破線で示す波形2は、比較例2として、ティース35を周方向に偏らせているが、コアブロックを転積させていない回転電機のトルク波形を示し、実線で示す波形3は、ティース35を周方向に偏らせ、かつコアブロックを転積させた回転電機のトルク波形を示す。なお、波形1は、図6における一点鎖線の波形と同じ波形であり、波形2は、図6における実線の波形と同じ波形である。 FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a torque waveform of the rotating electric machine 10. In FIG. 9, a waveform 1 indicated by an alternate long and short dash line shows, as Comparative Example 1, a torque waveform of a rotating electric machine in which the teeth 35 of the stator core 32 are not biased in the circumferential direction and the core block is not transposed. Waveform 2 indicated by a broken line indicates a torque waveform of a rotating electric machine in which the teeth 35 are biased in the circumferential direction but the core block is not transposed as Comparative Example 2, and waveform 3 indicated by a solid line indicates the teeth 35. 4 shows a torque waveform of a rotating electric machine in which the rotational direction is biased in the circumferential direction and the core block is transposed. The waveform 1 is the same as the one-dot chain line in FIG. 6, and the waveform 2 is the same as the solid line in FIG.
 図9において、波形2(すなわち、ティースを周方向に偏らせているが、転積させていない回転電機のトルク波形)では、既述のとおり12次のトルクリップルが大幅に低減されているものの、2次のトルクリップルが生じている。このトルクリップルは、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける周方向の偏りの差異、更に言えば、その周方向の偏りに応じて設けられた第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dに起因して生じると考えられる。 In FIG. 9, in waveform 2 (that is, the torque waveform of the rotating electric machine in which the teeth are biased in the circumferential direction, but are not rolled), the twelfth-order torque ripple is significantly reduced as described above. , Secondary torque ripple has occurred. This torque ripple is caused by the difference in the circumferential deviation between the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, more specifically, the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D provided in accordance with the circumferential deviation. Likely to occur.
 これに対し、波形3では、波形2に対して2次のトルクリップルが低減されていることが分かる。つまり、コアシート32aが、回転子12の回転方向に転積した状態で積層されていることで、その回転方向の位置が異なるコアシート32a同士でトルクリップルの位相がずれ、結果的に2次のトルクリップルが低減されている。 On the other hand, in the waveform 3, it can be seen that the second-order torque ripple with respect to the waveform 2 is reduced. That is, since the core sheets 32a are stacked in a state in which they are rolled in the rotation direction of the rotor 12, the torque ripples are shifted in phase between the core sheets 32a having different positions in the rotation direction. Torque ripple has been reduced.
 以上詳述した本実施形態によれば、以下の優れた効果が得られる。 According to the embodiment described in detail above, the following excellent effects can be obtained.
 固定子コア32に、周方向両側のうち一方の側に偏って第1ティース35Aを設けるとともに、周方向両側のうち他方の側に偏って第2ティース35Bを設ける構成とした。この場合、第1ティース35Aに起因して発生するトルクリップルと、第2ティース35Bに起因して発生するトルクリップルとを相殺させることができ、回転電機10に生じるトルクリップルを好適に抑制することができる。 The stator core 32 has a configuration in which the first teeth 35A are biased toward one of the two sides in the circumferential direction, and the second teeth 35B are biased toward the other side in the circumferential directions. In this case, the torque ripple generated due to the first teeth 35A and the torque ripple generated due to the second teeth 35B can be offset, and the torque ripple generated in the rotating electric machine 10 can be appropriately suppressed. Can be.
 また、固定子コア32の各ティース35として周方向に2種類のティース(第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35B)を各々設ける構成としたため、固定子13の製造時において例えばコアシートの表裏を裏返して積層する等の工程が不要となる。そのため、回転電機10を製造するための製造設備の簡易化やコストの低減を実現できる。 Further, since two kinds of teeth (first teeth 35A and second teeth 35B) are provided in the circumferential direction as the respective teeth 35 of the stator core 32, for example, the core sheet is turned upside down when the stator 13 is manufactured. This eliminates the need for steps such as stacking. Therefore, simplification of manufacturing equipment for manufacturing the rotating electric machine 10 and reduction in cost can be realized.
 第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各先端部37に、周方向に互いに異なる向きに偏るようにして鍔部51,52を設ける構成としたため、それら各鍔部51,52により、回転電機10に生じるトルクリップルを好適に抑制することができる。この場合、固定子巻線33の導線36を収容するスロット31を従来通りの直線形状としたままでも、換言すれば固定子巻線33の巻装に関する構成を一般的な構成から何ら変更しなくても、所望とする周方向の偏りを持たせることができる。したがって、固定子巻線33の巻装を容易としつつ、トルクリップル低減を好適に実現することができる。 Since the flanges 51 and 52 are provided at the distal ends 37 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B so as to be biased in different directions in the circumferential direction, the rotating electric machine 10 is provided by the flanges 51 and 52. The torque ripple generated at the time can be suitably suppressed. In this case, even if the slot 31 for accommodating the conductor 36 of the stator winding 33 has a conventional linear shape, in other words, the configuration related to the winding of the stator winding 33 is not changed at all from the general configuration. Even so, a desired circumferential deviation can be provided. Therefore, torque ripple reduction can be suitably realized while facilitating the winding of the stator winding 33.
 固定子巻線33が3相の巻線よりなる構成では、固定子巻線33への通電に伴い、6f次のトルクリップルが生じることが考えられる。この点、上記構成では、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度の和を、電気角で12~18度(つまり15度若しくはその付近)とすることにより、12次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。また、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度の和を、電気角で27~33度(つまり30度若しくはその付近)とすることにより、6次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 (4) In the configuration in which the stator winding 33 is formed of a three-phase winding, it is conceivable that 6f-order torque ripple may be generated as the stator winding 33 is energized. In this regard, in the above configuration, the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is set to an electrical angle of 12 to 18 degrees (that is, 15 degrees or near), so that the twelfth-order torque ripple is preferably used. Can be reduced. By setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 27 to 33 degrees in electrical angle (that is, 30 degrees or near), the sixth-order torque ripple can be suitably reduced. it can.
 第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との間であり、かつ第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに近づく位置のティースとして、回転子12に対向する対向面が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅狭となっている第3ティース35Cを設ける構成とした。これにより、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの互いの干渉を抑制しつつ、これら各ティース35A,35Bの偏り角度を十分に大きくすることができる。 As the teeth between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2 and at positions where the bias of each of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B approaches each other, the facing surface facing the rotor 12 is The third teeth 35C which are narrower in the circumferential direction than the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are provided. This makes it possible to sufficiently increase the bias angle of each of the teeth 35A and 35B while suppressing the interference between the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B.
 また、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との間であり、かつ第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに離れる位置のティースとして、回転子12に対向する対向面が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅広となっている第4ティース35Dを設ける構成とした。これにより、周方向に隣り合うティース35間の離間距離が局所的に過大になることを抑制することができる。 Further, as the teeth between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2 and in which the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are separated from each other, the opposing surface facing the rotor 12 is provided. The fourth teeth 35D, which are wider in the circumferential direction than the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, are provided. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the separation distance between the teeth 35 adjacent in the circumferential direction from being locally excessive.
 固定子コア32において、第1ティース群G1における第1ティース35Aの数と、第2ティース群G2における第2ティース35Bの数とを同じにしたため、トルクリップルの低減を適正に実施できる。 た め In the stator core 32, the number of the first teeth 35A in the first tooth group G1 and the number of the second teeth 35B in the second tooth group G2 are made the same, so that the torque ripple can be appropriately reduced.
 第1ティース35Aと第2ティース35Bとを有する固定子コア32では、それら第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける周方向の偏りの差異に起因して、高次のトルクリップルにさらに2次のトルクリップルが重畳することが懸念される。この点、上記構成では、回転子12の回転方向に転積した状態でコアシート32aが積層されているため、その回転方向の位置が異なるコアシート32a同士でトルクリップルの位相がずれ、結果的に2次のトルクリップルを低減することができる。 In the stator core 32 having the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, due to the difference in the circumferential deviation between the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, the secondary torque is further reduced to a higher order torque ripple. There is a concern that torque ripples may overlap. In this regard, in the above configuration, since the core sheets 32a are stacked in a state of being rolled in the rotation direction of the rotor 12, the phases of the torque ripple are shifted between the core sheets 32a having different positions in the rotation direction. Therefore, the secondary torque ripple can be reduced.
 なお、圧延により電磁鋼板が製造され、その電磁鋼板によりコアシート32aが作製される場合には、コアシート32aを転積することにより、シート面に沿う方向(すなわち圧延方向に垂直となる方向)で磁気抵抗が異なっていてもその磁気抵抗を平滑化することが可能となる。 When the electromagnetic steel sheet is manufactured by rolling and the core sheet 32a is manufactured from the electromagnetic steel sheet, by rolling the core sheet 32a, the direction along the sheet surface (that is, the direction perpendicular to the rolling direction). Thus, even if the magnetic resistance is different, the magnetic resistance can be smoothed.
 固定子巻線33を平角銅線により構成したため、回転電機10の電気装荷を大きくし、ひいては高出力化を実現することが可能となる。また、ティース35を周方向片側に偏らせて設ける構成において、導線収容部分であるスロット形成部を直線状とし、かつ先端部37を周方向に偏らせた構成とすれば、導線36の巻装を容易化しつつ、導線36の占積率を高めることができる。 (4) Since the stator winding 33 is formed of a rectangular copper wire, it is possible to increase the electric load of the rotating electric machine 10 and to realize a higher output. Further, in the configuration in which the teeth 35 are provided so as to be biased to one side in the circumferential direction, if the slot forming portion, which is the conductive wire accommodating portion, is linear and the distal end portion 37 is biased in the circumferential direction, the winding of the conductive wire 36 is possible. And the space factor of the conductor 36 can be increased.
 以下に、上記第1実施形態とは異なる実施形態について、第1実施形態との相違点を中心に説明する。 Hereinafter, an embodiment different from the above-described first embodiment will be described focusing on differences from the first embodiment.

Note that, in addition to the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, the configurations of the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are also as described above.
 上記構成によれば、第1巻線33A及び第2巻線33Bを、互いに電気角で30度の位相差を付与して通電するようにしたため、回転電機10の駆動時に生じる6次のトルクリップルを低減することが可能となる。また、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度の和を、電気角で15度又はその付近とすることにより、6次より高次の12次のトルクリップルを低減することが可能となる。 According to the above configuration, the first winding 33 </ b> A and the second winding 33 </ b> B are energized by giving a phase difference of 30 degrees in electrical angle to each other, so that the sixth-order torque ripple generated when the rotating electric machine 10 is driven is provided. Can be reduced. In addition, by setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 15 degrees or near in electrical angle, it is possible to reduce the 12th-order torque ripple higher than the 6th-order. .
 図11は、本実施形態の回転電機10における回転電機10のトルク波形を示す図である。図11において、破線は、各巻線33A,33Bで通電位相差を付与していない場合の回転電機10のトルク波形を示し、実線は、各巻線33A,33Bで通電位相差を付与した場合の回転電機10のトルク波形を示す。破線で示すトルク波形では、6次のトルクリップルが生じているのに対し、実線で示すトルク波形では、6次のトルクリップルが低減されていることが分かる。 FIG. 11 is a diagram illustrating a torque waveform of the rotating electric machine 10 in the rotating electric machine 10 of the present embodiment.

In the first embodiment, in the stator core 32, flange portions 51 and 52 projecting from the distal ends of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to the opposite sides in the circumferential direction are provided, thereby forming the first teeth. Although the configuration is such that the 35A and the second teeth 35B are biased in directions opposite to each other in the circumferential direction, this configuration is changed in the present embodiment. In the present embodiment, the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are different from each other in a radial direction of a slot forming portion corresponding to the slot 31 which is the winding accommodating region. Are biased toward the first direction out of both sides in the circumferential direction, and the second teeth 35B have the slot forming portions biased toward the second direction out of both sides in the circumferential direction.
 図12は、本実施形態における固定子コア32を示す平面図である。図12において、固定子コア32は、ヨーク34から径方向内側に延びるティース35として、4種類のティース35A,35B,35C,35Dを有しており、それら各ティース35A~35Dが周方向に並べて設けられている。各ティース35A~35Dは、平面視形状と、周方向両側における偏りの向き又は有無とが互いに相違するものとなっている。固定子コア32は、複数の第1ティース35Aよりなる第1ティース群G1と、複数の第2ティース35Bよりなる第2ティース群G2とを有しており、それら第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との間のティースとして、第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dが設けられている。 FIG. 12 is a plan view showing the stator core 32 in the present embodiment. In FIG. 12, the stator core 32 has four types of teeth 35A, 35B, 35C, 35D as teeth 35 extending radially inward from the yoke 34, and the teeth 35A to 35D are arranged in the circumferential direction. Is provided. Each of the teeth 35A to 35D is different from each other in the shape in plan view and the direction or presence or absence of deviation on both sides in the circumferential direction. The stator core 32 has a first teeth group G1 composed of a plurality of first teeth 35A and a second teeth group G2 composed of a plurality of second teeth 35B. As teeth between the teeth group G2, a third tooth 35C and a fourth tooth 35D are provided.
 第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bは、それぞれ直線状をなしており、直線状に延びるティース中心線の向きが、回転中心点を通る直線L11とは異なり、かつそのティース中心線の向きが、周方向において互いに逆となるティースである。すなわち、第1ティース35Aは、ティース中心線の向きが周方向の一方の側に傾き、第2ティース35Bは、ティース中心線の向きが周方向の他方の側に傾いている。これにより、第1ティース35Aは、周方向において互いに逆となる第1方向及び第2方向のうち第1方向の側に偏って設けられ、第2ティース35Bは、第2方向の側に偏って設けられるようになっている。 The first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are linear, respectively, and the direction of the teeth center line extending linearly is different from the straight line L11 passing through the rotation center point, and the direction of the teeth center line is The teeth are mutually opposite in the circumferential direction. That is, the direction of the center line of the first teeth 35A is inclined to one side in the circumferential direction, and the direction of the center line of the second teeth 35B is inclined to the other side in the circumferential direction. Thereby, the first teeth 35A are provided to be biased toward the first direction out of the first direction and the second direction that are opposite to each other in the circumferential direction, and the second teeth 35B are biased toward the second direction. It is designed to be provided.
 また、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との境界部に設けられる第3ティース35C及び第4ティース35Dのうち第3ティース35Cは、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに近づく位置に設けられ、回転子12に対向する対向面(図の下面)が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅狭となっている。また、第4ティース35Dは、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々の偏りが互いに離れる位置に設けられ、回転子12に対向する対向面(図の下面)が、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bよりも周方向に幅広となっている。 Further, among the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D provided at the boundary between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2, the third teeth 35C are biased by the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, respectively. Are provided close to each other, and the facing surface (the lower surface in the figure) facing the rotor 12 is narrower in the circumferential direction than the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B. The fourth teeth 35D are provided at positions where the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B are separated from each other, and the opposing surface (the lower surface in the figure) facing the rotor 12 is the first teeth 35A and the fourth teeth 35A. It is wider in the circumferential direction than the two teeth 35B.
 なお、図12に示す固定子コア32では、各ティース35の先端部37に周方向に延びる鍔部が設けられていないが、鍔部が設けられている構成であってもよい。 In the stator core 32 shown in FIG. 12, a flange portion extending in the circumferential direction is not provided at the distal end portion 37 of each tooth 35, but a configuration in which a flange portion is provided may be employed.
 ここで、図13を用いて、第1ティース35Aの偏り角度θm11と、第2ティース35Bの偏り角度θm12とを説明する。第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの偏り角度θm11,θm12は、回転子12の回転中心点を通る直線L11に対する各ティース35A,35Bの偏り(傾き)の角度として定義でき、具体的には、ティース35のヨーク34側の基端部における周方向の中心点Pdと不図示の回転子中心点とを結ぶ直線L11に対する、各ティース35A,35Bの中心を通るティース中心線L12の傾きの角度となっている。 Here, the bias angle θm11 of the first teeth 35A and the bias angle θm12 of the second teeth 35B will be described with reference to FIG. The deviation angles θm11 and θm12 of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B can be defined as angles of deviation (inclination) of the teeth 35A and 35B with respect to a straight line L11 passing through the rotation center point of the rotor 12. The inclination angle of the tooth center line L12 passing through the centers of the teeth 35A and 35B with respect to the straight line L11 connecting the circumferential center point Pd at the base end of the teeth 35 on the yoke 34 side and the rotor center point (not shown). Has become.
 つまり、第1ティース35Aは、回転子12の回転中心点を通る直線L11に対して、ティース延伸方向が図の時計回り方向に偏っており、その偏り角度がθm11である。また、第2ティース35Bは、同じく直線L11に対して、ティース延伸方向が図の反時計回り方向に偏っており、その偏り角度がθm12である。 That is, the first teeth 35A have their teeth extending in a clockwise direction in the drawing with respect to a straight line L11 passing through the rotation center point of the rotor 12, and the angle of deviation is θm11. In the second tooth 35B, the tooth extending direction is similarly deviated in the counterclockwise direction in the figure with respect to the straight line L11, and the deviation angle is θm12.
 例えば、偏り角度θm11,θm12をそれぞれ「1.5度」とする場合、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和は機械角で3度となり、電気角に換算すると15度(3度×5極対)となる。この場合、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を、電気角で15度又はその付近(12度~18度内の角度)とすることで、12次のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 For example, when the deviation angles θm11 and θm12 are each set to “1.5 degrees”, the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is 3 degrees in mechanical angle, which is 15 degrees (3 Degree x 5 pole pairs). In this case, by setting the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B to 15 degrees or an electrical angle (angle within 12 degrees to 18 degrees) in electrical angle, the 12th-order torque ripple can be suitably reduced. Can be reduced.
 また、6次のトルクリップルを低減するには、偏り角度θm11,θm12をそれぞれ「3度」とし、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を機械角で6度とする。つまり、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bにおける偏り角度の和を、電気角で30度又はその付近(27度~33度内の角度)とすればよい。 In order to reduce the sixth-order torque ripple, the deviation angles θm11 and θm12 are each set to “3 degrees”, and the sum of the deviation angles in the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is set to 6 degrees in mechanical angle. That is, the sum of the deviation angles of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B may be set to an electrical angle of 30 degrees or near (an angle within 27 degrees to 33 degrees).
 本実施形態の構成であっても、第1ティース35Aに起因して発生するトルクリップルと、第2ティース35Bに起因して発生するトルクリップルとを相殺させることができ、回転電機10に生じるトルクリップルを好適に抑制することができる。 Even with the configuration of the present embodiment, the torque ripple generated due to the first teeth 35A and the torque ripple generated due to the second teeth 35B can be offset, and the torque generated in the rotating electric machine 10 can be reduced. Ripple can be suitably suppressed.
 (他の実施形態)
 上記実施形態を例えば次のように変更してもよい。
(Other embodiments)
The above embodiment may be changed as follows, for example.
 ・固定子コア32の変形例として、図14(a)~(c)に示す構成を用いることも可能である。図14(a)~(c)には、ティース35において先端部37の形状を異ならせた構成が各々示されている。なお、図14(a)~(c)には第1ティース35Aを示すが、第2ティース35Bについても同様に適用される。 · As a modification of the stator core 32, it is also possible to use the configuration shown in FIGS. FIGS. 14A to 14C show configurations in which the shape of the distal end portion 37 of the teeth 35 is different. Although FIGS. 14A to 14C show the first teeth 35A, the same applies to the second teeth 35B.
 図14(a)では、第1ティース35Aの先端部37における鍔部形状を矩形状としている。つまり、鍔部51は、周方向片側に突出し、かつ径方向内外において周方向の幅寸法が略同じとなっている。本構成によれば、先端部37の磁気抵抗が下がり回転子12との磁束を多く通すことができ、トルクを向上することができる。 で は In FIG. 14 (a), the flange shape at the distal end 37 of the first tooth 35A is rectangular. That is, the flange portion 51 projects to one side in the circumferential direction, and has substantially the same width in the circumferential direction inside and outside the radial direction. According to this configuration, the magnetic resistance of the distal end portion 37 is reduced, so that more magnetic flux with the rotor 12 can be passed, and the torque can be improved.
 図14(b)では、第1ティース35Aの先端部37において鍔部51が周方向両側に突出している。ただし、周方向の一方側及び他方側において鍔部51の突出量が互いに異なっていることから、鍔部51は、周方向両側のうち一方の側に偏って設けられるものとなっている。なお、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bとして図14(b)の構成を採用する場合には、鍔部51,52の周方向の突出量が小さくなるため、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との境界部に第3ティース35Cや第4ティース35Dを設けない構成、すなわち固定子コア32のティース35を、第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bのみとする構成とすることが可能となる。 で は In FIG. 14 (b), the flange portion 51 protrudes from the distal end portion 37 of the first tooth 35A to both sides in the circumferential direction. However, since the protrusion amounts of the flange portion 51 are different from each other on one side and the other side in the circumferential direction, the flange portion 51 is provided to be biased to one of the two sides in the circumferential direction. In the case where the configuration of FIG. 14B is employed as the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, the amount of protrusion of the flanges 51 and 52 in the circumferential direction is small, so that the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth 35 The configuration in which the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are not provided at the boundary with the teeth group G2, that is, the configuration in which the teeth 35 of the stator core 32 include only the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B is possible. Becomes
 図14(c)では、周方向に隣り合う第1ティース35Aにおいて先端部37同士が連結部55を介して連結されている。具体的には、連結部55は、鍔部51よりも径方向の厚さが薄い部位として設けられ、各ティース35の先端部37を環状に連結して各スロット31を閉スロットとするものとなっている。本構成によれば、各ティース35が周方向に偏りを有することによるトルクリップル低減効果に加え、固定子コア32における各ティース35の強度向上を図ることができる。 In FIG. 14C, the distal ends 37 of the first teeth 35 </ b> A adjacent in the circumferential direction are connected to each other via the connecting portion 55. Specifically, the connecting portion 55 is provided as a portion whose thickness in the radial direction is thinner than the flange portion 51, and the leading end portions 37 of the teeth 35 are connected in a ring shape to make each slot 31 a closed slot. Has become. According to this configuration, in addition to the torque ripple reducing effect due to the fact that each tooth 35 has a bias in the circumferential direction, the strength of each tooth 35 in the stator core 32 can be improved.
 ・上記実施形態では、第1ティース群G1と第2ティース群G2との境界部(例えば図3に示す2カ所の境界部)に第3ティース35Cと第4ティース35Dとを設ける構成としたが、これを変更し、いずれの境界部にも第3ティース35Cを設ける構成としてもよい。 In the above embodiment, the third teeth 35C and the fourth teeth 35D are provided at the boundary between the first teeth group G1 and the second teeth group G2 (for example, at two boundaries shown in FIG. 3). Alternatively, the third teeth 35 </ b> C may be provided at any of the boundaries.
 ・回転電機10において、極数やスロット数は任意である。つまり、10極60スロットとする構成に代えて、例えば8極24スロットとする構成としてもよい。 In the rotating electric machine 10, the number of poles and the number of slots are arbitrary. That is, instead of the configuration of 10 poles and 60 slots, for example, a configuration of 8 poles and 24 slots may be used.
 ・上記実施形態では、固定子コア32において、周方向の一方の側に偏らせて設けた第1ティース35Aと、周方向の他方の側に偏らせて設けた第2ティース35Bとをそれぞれ1種類ずつとしたが、これら第1ティース35Aと第2ティース35Bとをそれぞれ複数種類(2種類、3種類、4種類等)ずつ設ける構成としてもよい。例えば第1ティース35A及び第2ティース35Bの各々において、周方向における偏りの向きが同じであり、かつ周方向の偏り角度がそれぞれ15度、30度となる2種類のティースを設ける構成とする。これにより、複数の次数のトルクリップルを好適に低減することができる。 In the above-described embodiment, in the stator core 32, the first teeth 35A provided to be biased to one side in the circumferential direction and the second teeth 35B provided to be biased to the other side in the circumferential direction are each one. The first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B may be provided in plural types (two types, three types, four types, and the like). For example, in each of the first teeth 35A and the second teeth 35B, two types of teeth are provided in which the directions of deviation in the circumferential direction are the same and the deviation angles in the circumferential direction are 15 degrees and 30 degrees, respectively. Thereby, a plurality of orders of torque ripple can be reduced suitably.
 ・上記実施形態では、インナロータ式の埋込磁石型ロータ(IPMロータ)を有する回転電機での適用例を説明したが、これ以外の回転電機に適用することも可能である。例えば、表面磁石型ロータ(SPMロータ)を有する回転電機での適用が可能である。SPMロータを有する回転電機では、低トルクリップルの磁気回路にすることが容易であるが、本願の構成により、トルクリップルをより低く抑え、静粛性の高い磁気回路にすることができる。また、アウタロータ式の回転電機での適用が可能である。アウタロータ式では、インナロータ式と比べトルクは高いがトルクリップルの低い磁気回路にすることが困難であったが、本願の構成により、トルクリップルを好適に低減できるため、高トルクかつ低トルクリップルの磁気回路にすることが可能になる。 In the above embodiment, an example of application to a rotating electric machine having an inner rotor type embedded magnet type rotor (IPM rotor) has been described, but application to other rotating electric machines is also possible. For example, application to a rotating electric machine having a surface magnet type rotor (SPM rotor) is possible. In a rotating electric machine having an SPM rotor, it is easy to provide a low-torque ripple magnetic circuit. However, according to the configuration of the present application, a low-torque ripple magnetic circuit can be achieved with a lower torque ripple. Further, the present invention can be applied to an outer rotor type rotating electric machine. The outer rotor type has a higher torque than the inner rotor type, but it is difficult to form a magnetic circuit with a low torque ripple.However, according to the configuration of the present application, the torque ripple can be suitably reduced. It becomes possible to make a circuit.
 ・ラジアルギャップ式の回転電機に代えて、アキシャルギャップ式の回転電機での適用も可能である。アキシャルギャップ式では、ラジアルギャップ式と比べトルクは高いがトルクリップルの低い磁気回路にすることが困難であったが、本願の構成により、トルクリップルを好適に低減できるため、高トルクかつ低トルクリップルの磁気回路にすることが可能になる。 In place of the radial gap type rotating electric machine, application to an axial gap type rotating electric machine is also possible. The axial gap type has a higher torque than the radial gap type, but it is difficult to provide a magnetic circuit with a low torque ripple.However, according to the configuration of the present application, the torque ripple can be suitably reduced, so that a high torque and a low torque ripple can be obtained. Magnetic circuit.
