 特許文献1のような冷却構造は、コイルエンドの上方から冷媒が噴射され、コイルエンドを伝達経路として下方に冷媒が供されるが、冷媒が重力流下するので、短絡流が生じやすく、コイルエンドの最下部に油が伝達されないことがあり、冷却効率が悪くなる。 In a cooling structure as in Patent Document 1, the refrigerant is injected from above the coil end, and the refrigerant is supplied downward using the coil end as a transmission path. However, since the refrigerant flows down by gravity, a short-circuit flow is likely to occur and the coil end. Oil may not be transmitted to the bottom of the coil, resulting in poor cooling efficiency.

The bracket also includes a refrigerant guide member (not shown) having the same aspect as the refrigerant guide member 5 capable of guiding the refrigerant supplied from the frame 60 to the coil end 42B below the rotary shaft 2 of the rotary electric machine 1. Will be done.
 以下、図1~6を参照して回転電機1の冷却作用の一例について説明する。 Hereinafter, an example of the cooling action of the rotary electric machine 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6.
 ポンプ圧送によりフレーム60の冷媒導入路62aを介してブラケット61の冷媒導入路62bに導入された前記冷媒は第一流入孔63及び第二流入孔64を介してブラケット61内に流入する。第一流入孔63から流入した前記冷媒はブラケット61の内面部61aに沿って重力流下する。この内面部61aに沿って流下した冷媒は、案内部68に案内されて冷媒導入溝67に移行し、軸受7に供される。一方、第二流入孔64から流入した前記冷媒は内面部61aの内周方向に沿って重力流下する。この内周方向に流下した冷媒の一部は回転軸2の上方の固定子4のコイルエンド42Aの冷却に供される。また、前記冷媒の他の一部は内面部61aに沿って冷媒案内部材5側に流下する。さらに、冷媒案内部材5の第一案内補助部51側に流下した前記冷媒は、第一案内補助部51の案内により案内本体部50の長手方向に沿って第二案内補助部52に向かって流下する。また、軸受支持部66(回転軸2、軸受7)の近傍から第二案内補助部52側に流下した前記冷媒は第二案内補助部52の案内により回転軸2から最下方のコイルエンド42Aに向けて供される。以上のように、前記冷媒がコイルエンド42Aの周方向に沿って均一に供されるので、コイルエンド42Aが均等に冷却される。また、軸受支持部66側から冷媒案内部材5に流下する冷媒の一部は流出口69を介してブラケット61の背面部61b側に移行して背面部61bの冷却に供される。さらに、前記直結側のブラケット内のコイルエンド42Bもブラケット61内のコイルエンド42Aと同様の前記冷媒の供給を受けて均等に冷却される。そして、コイルエンド42A,42Bの冷却に供された冷媒はフレーム60の排出口62cから排出される。 The refrigerant introduced into the refrigerant introduction path 62b of the bracket 61 via the refrigerant introduction path 62a of the frame 60 by pumping flows into the bracket 61 through the first inflow hole 63 and the second inflow hole 64. The refrigerant that has flowed in from the first inflow hole 63 flows down by gravity along the inner surface portion 61a of the bracket 61. The refrigerant flowing down along the inner surface portion 61a is guided by the guide portion 68, shifts to the refrigerant introduction groove 67, and is provided to the bearing 7. On the other hand, the refrigerant flowing in from the second inflow hole 64 flows down by gravity along the inner peripheral direction of the inner surface portion 61a. A part of the refrigerant flowing down in the inner peripheral direction is used for cooling the coil end 42A of the stator 4 above the rotating shaft 2. Further, the other part of the refrigerant flows down to the refrigerant guide member 5 side along the inner surface portion 61a. Further, the refrigerant that has flowed down to the first guide auxiliary portion 51 side of the refrigerant guide member 5 flows down toward the second guide auxiliary portion 52 along the longitudinal direction of the guide main body portion 50 by the guidance of the first guide auxiliary portion 51. To do. Further, the refrigerant flowing down from the vicinity of the bearing support portion 66 (rotary shaft 2, bearing 7) to the second guide auxiliary portion 52 side is guided from the rotary shaft 2 to the lowermost coil end 42A by the guidance of the second guide auxiliary portion 52. Served towards. As described above, since the refrigerant is uniformly supplied along the circumferential direction of the coil end 42A, the coil end 42A is uniformly cooled. Further, a part of the refrigerant flowing down from the bearing support portion 66 side to the refrigerant guide member 5 moves to the back surface portion 61b side of the bracket 61 via the outflow port 69 and is used for cooling the back surface portion 61b. Further, the coil end 42B in the bracket on the directly connected side is also uniformly cooled by receiving the same supply of the refrigerant as the coil end 42A in the bracket 61. Then, the refrigerant used for cooling the coil ends 42A and 42B is discharged from the discharge port 62c of the frame 60.
 以上のように、回転電機1の冷却機構によれば、フレーム60内に導入された冷媒が、冷媒案内部材5の案内により、フレーム60内のコイルエンド42A,42Bの所定部位に供給される。特に、従来において冷却が不充分であった回転軸2よりも下方の部位、特に、コイルエンド42A,42Bの最下位への冷媒の供給が可能となる。そして、この冷却効果の向上により、電流密度に余裕ができるので、回転電機1の小型化も可能となる。よって、低コストに回転電機1におけるコイルエンド42A,42Bの冷却効果の向上が図られる。 As described above, according to the cooling mechanism of the rotary electric machine 1, the refrigerant introduced into the frame 60 is supplied to the predetermined portions of the coil ends 42A and 42B in the frame 60 by the guidance of the refrigerant guide member 5. In particular, it is possible to supply the refrigerant to a portion below the rotating shaft 2, which has been insufficiently cooled in the past, particularly to the lowermost portion of the coil ends 42A and 42B. Further, by improving the cooling effect, a margin can be provided in the current density, so that the rotary electric machine 1 can be miniaturized. Therefore, the cooling effect of the coil ends 42A and 42B in the rotary electric machine 1 can be improved at low cost.
 また、冷媒案内部材5が取り付けられる反直結側及び直結側のブラケットが放熱性の高い合金、例えば、アルミ合金から構成されることで、冷媒が冷媒案内部材5に供される過程で冷やされるので、冷却効果がさらに高まる。 Further, since the brackets on the anti-direct connection side and the direct connection side to which the refrigerant guide member 5 is attached are made of an alloy having high heat dissipation, for example, an aluminum alloy, the refrigerant is cooled in the process of being supplied to the refrigerant guide member 5. , The cooling effect is further enhanced.
 さらに、冷媒案内部材5においては、長板状の案内本体部50により前記ブラケットの内面部に沿って供された前記冷媒が前記下方に案内されるので、当該冷媒を回転軸2の下方に移行できる。 Further, in the refrigerant guide member 5, since the refrigerant provided along the inner surface portion of the bracket is guided downward by the long plate-shaped guide main body portion 50, the refrigerant is transferred to the lower side of the rotation shaft 2. it can.

It can be supplied toward the coil ends 42A and 42B.
 さらに、第二案内補助部52が設けられる案内本体部50の上面部は、第一案内補助部51が設けられる案内本体部50の上面部よりも、前記内面部からの張り出し長さを大きくすることで、前記最下方のコイルエンド42A,42Bへの前記冷媒の供給効果がさらに高まる。 Further, the upper surface portion of the guide main body 50 provided with the second guide auxiliary portion 52 has a larger overhang length from the inner surface portion than the upper surface portion of the guide main body 50 provided with the first guide auxiliary portion 51. As a result, the effect of supplying the refrigerant to the lowermost coil ends 42A and 42B is further enhanced.
 そして、案内本体部50の上面部が前記下方のコイルエンド42A,42Bに向けて傾斜に配置されることで、第二案内補助部52が前記最下方のコイルエンド42A,42Bに向けて張り出される。よって、前記最下方のコイルエンド42A,42Bへの前記冷媒の供給効果がさらに一層高まる。 Then, the upper surface portion of the guide main body portion 50 is arranged so as to be inclined toward the lower coil ends 42A and 42B, so that the second guide auxiliary portion 52 projects toward the lowermost coil ends 42A and 42B. Is done. Therefore, the effect of supplying the refrigerant to the lowermost coil ends 42A and 42B is further enhanced.
 また、冷媒案内部材5がブラケット61の内面部61aに取り付けられることで、ブラケット61と冷媒案内部材5との間の熱伝導により冷媒案内部材5の冷却効果が高まるので、前記下方のコイルエンド42A,42Bの冷却効果がさらに高まる。 Further, since the refrigerant guide member 5 is attached to the inner surface portion 61a of the bracket 61, the cooling effect of the refrigerant guide member 5 is enhanced by heat conduction between the bracket 61 and the refrigerant guide member 5, so that the lower coil end 42A , 42B cooling effect is further enhanced.
