A stator (76), a rotor (82), and frame bodies (84, 86) to fixedly hold a stator core (74) therebetween in an axial direction are assembled into a motor. Further, a shaft (78) of the rotor and the frame body (86) are mutually coupled through a coupler (106) with no ability for relative rotation. While integrally rotating the frame bodies (84, 86), the stator (76), and the rotor (82) forming the motor about an axis of the rotor (82), a lathe is used to machine mounting surfaces (96a, 100a) of the frame body (84), which will be in direct contact with a surface of an object on which the motor is mounted.

The billet of aluminum alloy is extruded to form a plurality of conduits along the longitudinal direction of the billet and to form a plurality of thickness lightening holes along the longitudinal direction of the billet. The thickness lightening holes are equally spaced in a circumferential direction of the billet and the conduits are arranged on both sides of each of the thickness lightening holes.

A holding member (22) which can hold a predetermined axial-length laminated core member by pressing down both axial end faces thereof is used to hold a short laminated core member (24) and a spacing element (48) having a thickness generally equal to the difference between the axial lengths of those laminated core members. The spacing element is disposed at a position between one axial end face of the laminated core member (24) and a lid element (32) of the holding member (22). The laminated core member (24) and the spacing element (48) are both held by the holding member (22) and are introduced into the mold (20) to form a conductor portion integrally with a predetermined axial-length laminated core member held by the holding member (22). In this state, molten metal is poured into slots (38) of the laminated core member (24) and annular cavities (44, 46), and thus a conductor portion is formed integrally with the laminated core member (24) when the molten metal is set.

A reactor (32) and a switch (35) are interposed in parallel between U-phase, V-phase and W-phase on a power source side (31) and U, V and W terminals on a motor side (33). A changeover switch )37) is interposed between Z, X and Y terminals on the motor side (33) and the U, V and W terminals on the motor side (33). When the switch (35) is set to OFF, the changeover switch (37) is set to ON, and the switch (35) is set up so as to interconnect Z, X and Y terminals, windings of the motor are set up in the form of Y-connection, so that the motor and a power source are connected directly to each other. On the other hand, when the changeover switch (37) is switched over to OFF, and the switch (35) is set up so as to interconnect Z, X and Y terminals to the U, V and W terminals, the windings of the motor are set up in the form of &Dgr;-connection, so that the motor and the power source are connected together through the reactor (32).
摘要:
An induction motor capable of obtaining a high power characteristic in a wide range without producing induced voltage. A winding for each phase is composed of a plurality of winding components having the same number of turns. When high torque is needed with low speed rotation, a Y-connection in which winding components for each phase are connected in series is formed as shown in FIG. 2a. For medium low speed rotation, a &Dgr;-connection in which winding components for each phase are connected in series is formed as shown in FIG. 2b. For medium high speed rotation, a Y-connection in which winding components for each phase are connected in parallel is formed as shown in FIG. 2c. For high speed rotation, a &agr;-connection in which winding components for each phase are connected in parallel is formed as shown in FIG. 2d. Using the entire winding for each phase, the number of turns is decreased stage by stage to switch from low speed rotation to high speed rotation. Since there is no unused part of windings, there is no problem of induced voltage. A fall in power at the time of switching the winding formation can be restrained, so that a high power characteristic can be obtained in a wide range.

An air-cooled type electric motor (20) includes a rotor, a stator includes a stator core (28), and a front support member (32) and a rear support member (34) arranged at both axial ends of the stator core (28). A plurality of air passages (42), extending continuously in an axial direction, are provided in the stator core (28), the front support member (32), and the rear support member (34). A centrifugal blower unit (50) is placed at further rear side of the rear support member (34). Because the centrifugal blower unit (50) has a large pressure rise, air, surrounding the motor and sufficient to cause an effective cooling, can be made to flow into the air passages (42) with a smaller diameter. A drive section (56) of the blower unit (50) is fixed directly to the rear support member (34) by bolts (72). Consequently, an electric wire (74) for the drive section (56) extends through the interior space of the motor (20), and is connected to a terminal box (48). In this manner, the blowing capacity, and the moisture-proofing of the terminal box, can be improved.

A rotor core (12) of a squirrel-cage rotor of an induction motor is housed in a recess (14) of a mold (18) of a conductor casting apparatus (10). A composite cylinder device (68) is fixed on the upper side of the mold (18) or on the side remoter from the pouring gate thereof, and the rotor core 12 is held in a predetermined position in the recess 14 by one piston (70). The other piston (72) locally pressurizes a molten metal that fills an end-connector ring cavity (66) defined between the rotor core (12) and the recess (14) on the side remoter from the pouring gate.

An electric motor includes a covering member for covering the outer periphery of a stator core, to improve the cooling efficiency of an air-cooling system of the motor. The covering member is fixed to a stator while defining a cavity therebetween in fluidic communication with air passages formed directly in the stator core. When an blower unit mounted on the motor operates, an ambient air surrounding the motor is introduced into the cavity, and then flows from the cavity into the air passages, so as to actively absorb heat generated in the stator from the outer peripheral surface of the stator core and the tubular wall surfaces of the air passages. Thereafter, the air is discharged from the air passages out of the motor.
摘要:
An air-cooled motor having cooling-air passages each formed by a plurality of small ventilation passages extending through a front housing, a stator, and a rear housing, constructed in one piece. Cuttings are prevented from being accumulated at inlets of cooling-air passages. For example, the cooling-air passages are formed of ten small ventilation passages, each defined between adjacent ones of eleven ribs each forming part of the stator. All the eleven ribs are provided with respective front housing ribs. End faces of the front housing ribs on the cooling-air inlet side are uniform in height, and positioned in an identical plane. Cooling air flows into the small ventilation passages in the direction of an arrow. In this case, the end faces of the small ventilation passages on the cooling-air inlet side are aligned, so that cuttings contained in cooling air are accumulated only on the end faces of ribs defining the small ventilation passages on the cooling-air inlet side, forming accumulation layers thereon, which prevents the small ventilation passages from being clogged with accumulations of cuttings.
