Abstract:
The magnetic performance, rigidity and mechanical precision of an iron core assembly can be improved. A plurality of plate-shaped core segments are disposed in succession to form a plurality of first and second core members respectively. Edge portions of adjacent core segments of the first and second core members are coupled with each other. The first and second core members are alternately laminated one over another in such a manner that first inter-segment positions each defined between adjacent two first core segments of the first core member are offset from second inter-segment positions each defined between adjacent two second core segments of the second core member in a longitudinal direction of the first and second core members, with those edge portions of the respective first and second core segments which adjoin each other in a laminating direction in which the first and second core members are laminated being overlapped each other. The core segments of the first and second core members are rotated relative to each other through the coupling means so as to form an enclosed or ring-like configuration.

A method for making a core for one of a rotor and a stator for use in an electric motor, the core being formed from a plurality of laminations, includes forming a predetermined number of through-material slots in a first portion of a material stock, forming at least one angled interlocking projection in the material stock, the projection having a circumferential length and being formed so that at least a portion of the projection remains integral with the material stock, cutting the material stock to define a receiving opening corresponding to the interlocking projection, the receiving opening positioned relative to the projection at an angle &phgr; that is a whole number multiple of &bgr;, where &bgr; is an angle defined as a ratio of 360 degrees to the number of slots and cutting the material stock to form a first substantially circular lamination. Second and third laminations are formed in kind. The second lamination is rotated relative to the first lamination and positioned on the first lamination such that the projection from the first lamination engages the receiving opening in the second lamination. The third lamination is positioned on and rotated relative to the second lamination in kind to form the core.
Abstract:
A structure of an armature of a toroidal winding type rotating electric machine, such as a motor or generator, which constitutes at least a member of a stator or a rotor is disclosed. The structure comprises a laminated core having an annular core portion and a facing core portion that extends from the annular core portion toward an opposing machine member. A coil is wound with a toroidal winding about the annular core portion of the laminated core. A partial laminating core is laminated on the facing core portion of the armature to enlarge the facing surface opposite the opposing machine member. The total lamination thickness of the facing core portion and partial laminating core portion is larger than the thickness of the annular core portion.

It is an object to provide a rotor of an electric motor in which an adverse influence due to through holes for caulking and fixing is reduced, and moreover, the number of parts is small and an assembling operation is simple, so that high characteristics can be obtained, which is constructed by: a rotor core constructed by laminating a plurality of iron plates for the rotor; at least two slots which are formed in the rotor core along the axial direction of a rotation axis; and at least four flat permanent magnets which are inserted to the slots, and in which as the permanent magnets, each pair of magnets which face each other between adjacent magnetic poles are arranged in parallel at predetermined intervals so as to sandwich a normal line of the rotor. In addition, the permanent magnet rotor is made to satisfy the condition: L/D being between 0.3 and 1.2 and t/I being between 0.02 and 0.2, wherein L is the thickness of the laminations, D is the diameter of the rotor core, t is the thickness of the permanent magnets, and I is the length of the permanent magnets.
Abstract:
A laminated stack having a lamina layer comprised of a plurality of discrete lamina segments and which may also have laminas which define a plurality of outer perimeter configurations. The invention provides a method and apparatus for manufacturing such stacks. Lamina layers comprising a plurality of discrete lamina segments are automatically stacked by positioning the uppermost lamina in a choke barrel near the lower die bed surface and engaging the interlock tabs of the discrete lamina segments with the interlock slots of an uppermost lamina layer in the choke barrel prior to the complete separation of the discrete lamina segments from the remaining portion of the strip stock material. Each of the outer perimeter configurations has at least one common choke surface. The common choke surfaces form, when the laminas are stacked, a choke contacting surface on the outer perimeter surface of the lamina stack which extends continuously in the axial direction from the top lamina to the bottom lamina A die assembly having selectively actuated punches is used to stamp the laminas with a plurality of outer perimeter configurations and the laminas are stacked in a choke barrel with an alignment surface which cooperates with the common choke surface and securely holds the stamped laminas in position while the stack is being formed. Rotation of the choke barrel compensates for strip thickness variations.

Abstract:
Elongated thin strip stock is blanked to form interlocking laminas for electric motor or generator rotors or stators at successive blanking stations. At a final assembly station the laminas are stacked and pressed into interlocking relationship. In response to an operator input a predetermined number of reversals, or half turns about the stack axis of the previously stacked lamina are provided in order to compensate for nonuniform strip thickness to obtain a rotor or stator of substantially uniform height. Alternatively the thickness of the strip stock is gauged at transversely spaced points on the strip to determine cross feed thickness variation in the strip whereupon the stacked laminas are automatically provided with a number of reversals about the stack axis in response to a thickness differential that would result in a parallelism error in the stack that exceeds a predetermined amount. Rotor conductor slots are formed in the stacked laminas and are skewed to the stack axis by providing arcuate indexing of each lamina relative to the next preceding lamina in the stack by an arcuate increment that is automatically determined in response to operator entered inputs relative to the stack height, the skew angle, nominal lamina thickness and skew direction.
Abstract:
A motor rotor or stator core is formed of a plurality of stacked generally circular laminations. The stack defines at least one inner lamination having laminations positioned adjacent to both sides of the lamination. Each lamination has a predetermined number of circumferentially equally spaced slots or bar elements extending radially at about an edge thereof. The inner laminations include at least one interlocking projection formed in one of the surfaces at a predetermined radial distance from the center of the lamination. The laminations further define at least one projection receiving region formed therein to engage the projection when the laminations arc in the stacked formation. The projection receiving region is spaced from the interlocking projection by an angle .phi. that is a whole number multiple of .beta., where .beta. is an angle defined as a ratio of 360 degrees to the number of slots. A method for making the stacked core is also disclosed.
