Abstract:
A tandem rotary electric machine for vehicles is equipped with a primary rotary electric machine and a secondary rotary electric machine arranged in tandem mechanism, namely, of a dual stator-rotor pair mechanism. In the tandem rotary electric machine, a connection lead wire connects a stator coil wound on a stator core of the primary stator-rotor pair to a rectifier device through one of accommodation parts formed in slots of the stator core of the secondary stator-rotor pair. This structure reduces the entire size or volume of the tandem rotary electric machine and increases the mechanical safety against the impact or force from outside.
Abstract:
A stator coil includes a belt-shaped winding band and a same-layer bridging portion. The winding band makes one or more rounds, while turning back in the axial direction a plurality of conductor wires which are aligned in parallel at a pitch of electric angle π (pi). The same-layer bridging portion connects a pair of the conductor wires which are of the same phase at the end portion of the winding and which are arranged in the same layer of the slot. Such arrangement enables forming a compact multi-phase stator coil.

According to the invention, there is provided a rotor for a rotating electrical machine which includes a rotary shaft, a pair of first and second pole cores fixed on the rotary shaft, a plurality of permanent magnets, and a magnet holder holding the permanent magnets. The magnet holder is made of a non-magnetic metal and has a plurality of holding portions and a plurality of connecting portions. Each of the holding portions is interposed between circumferentially adjacent two of claws of the first and second pole cores, so as to hold a corresponding one of the permanent magnets between the adjacent two claws. Each of the connecting portions circumferentially extends, through the radially inner side of a distal end portion of one of the claws of the first and second pole cores, to connect end portions of adjacent two of the holding portions which circumferentially bracket the distal end portion.

Abstract:
An electric machine selectively operates as a generator mode or a motor mode. The electric machine includes a stator core, a multi-phase armature winding, a field coil, a moving core having a plurality of salient poles so as to move relative to the stator core to cross the magnetic field. Field current is supplied to the field coil differently according to operation mode. A portion of the armature winding is short-circuited to form an additional magnetic field that has a phase different from the magnetic field of the field coil. Therefore, the rotary core moves relative to the stator core when the operation mode is in the motor mode.
Abstract:
In a rotor for a rotary electric machine, a predetermined number of main pole magnets and a predetermined number of yoke magnets are fixed in contact with a hub. Each main pole magnet is magnetized so that its radial inside portion and its radial outside portion have the opposite polarity from each other, of north pole and south pole. Also, each main pole magnet has its radial inside and radial outside polarities reversed from its closest main pole magnets. The yoke magnets are disposed to allow magnetic flux to flow through circumferential surfaces of the main pole magnets. The hub is provided as a heat radiating member and made of metal having high heat conductivity. The hub includes an inner cylindrical portion and an outer cylindrical portion, and forms an air passage spaces.
