Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Each of the coils provided in a stator includes a wire introducing portion where a wire is introduced into a groove, an adjusting portion including the wire wound within the groove, and a plurality of wire layers each of which are aligned adjacent one another along an extending direction of a tooth. Among the plurality of wire layers, wires located on a periphery side-end in the odd-numbered wire layers are separated from an inner circumferential surface of the periphery by a half pitch.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A stator of a motor, the stator comprising: a periphery having a cylindrical shape; a plurality of teeth extending from an inner circumferential surface of the periphery toward an inner circumferential side, the plurality of teeth being disposed along a circumferential direction of the periphery with intervals between one another; a plurality of bobbins respectively attached to the plurality of teeth, each bobbin surrounding a side surface of the corresponding tooth at an intermediate position between a first end of the tooth on a periphery side and a second end of the tooth on an opposite side from the first end; and a plurality of coils respectively disposed on the plurality of bobbins, wherein each of the plurality of bobbins comprises: a first end-side end located on a first end side; a circumferential surface including a pair of surface portions opposing each other when seen in a cross section along an extending direction of the corresponding tooth; and a groove located at the first end-side end on at least the pair of surface portions; each of the plurality of coils comprises: a wire introducing portion where a wire of the coil is introduced from outside of the bobbin into the groove; an adjusting portion continuously disposed with the wire introducing portion, the adjusting portion including one or two adjacent turns of the wire in the groove among turns of the wire wound one or two times around the bobbin; and a plurality of wire layers, each of the plurality of wire layers including turns of the wire disposed adjacent to each other along the extending direction of the corresponding tooth, a first wire layer of a lowest layer disposed on the pair of surface portions, among the plurality of wire layers, contacting turns of the wire included in the adjusting portion and the circumferential surface of the bobbin, and in each of the plurality of coils disposed on the corresponding pair of surface portions: an odd-numbered wire layer among the plurality of wire layers disposed on the corresponding pair of surface portions has the wire wound successively from the first end side toward a second end side, and a turn of the wire located at the first end side-end is separated from the inner circumferential surface of the periphery by a half pitch; an even-numbered wire layer among the plurality of wire layers disposed on the corresponding pair of surface portions has the wire wound successively from the second end side toward the first end side; each of second and subsequent wire layers among the plurality of wire layers includes a turn of the wire located on an end surface of the bobbin on a wire introducing portion side, and turns of the wire other than the turn of the wire located on the end surface of the bobbin; the turns of the wire other than the turn of the wire located on the end surface of the bobbin are disposed along recesses between two adjacent turns of the wire in a wire layer located one layer lower; and the turn of the wire located on the end surface of the bobbin is disposed in a direction intersecting the turns of the wire in the wire layer located one layer lower. 2. The stator as in claim 1 , wherein each groove is located on at least a pair of surface portions included in the circumferential surface of the corresponding bobbin, the one pair of surface portions extending along an axial direction of the periphery, each of the plurality of bobbins comprises an enlarged width portion enlarging a width of the groove at a portion of the groove located on one of the pair of surface portions, a width of the enlarged width portion being smaller than a wire diameter of the wire, and the introducing portion is disposed at a portion of the groove located on another of the pair of the surface portions. 3. The stator as in claim 1 , wherein a specific wire to be wound to form a first turn in the first wire layer is disposed along the turns of the wire wound in the adjusting portion. 4. The stator as in claim 3 , wherein the adjusting portion includes a turn of the wire wound once adjacent to a side wall defining the groove, and the specific wire is disposed along a recess between the turn of the wire wound at the adjusting portion and an upper end of the side wall. 5. The stator as in claim 3 , wherein the adjusting portion includes two turns of the wire disposed adjacent to each other, one of the two turns of the wire is located on the second end side, and is adjacent to a side wall defining the groove, and the specific wire is disposed along a recess between the one of the two turns of the wire and an upper end of the side wall. 6. The stator as in claim 3 , wherein the adjusting portion includes two adjacent turns of the wire disposed adjacent to each other, and the specific wire is wound around along a recess between the two adjacent turns of the wire of the adjusting portion. 7. The stator as in claim 1 , wherein the odd-numbered wire layer includes the turn of the wire located at the first end side-end separated from the inner circumferential surface of the periphery by a half pitch, and the even-numbered wire layer includes a turn of the wire located at the first end side-end in contact with the inner circumferential surface of the periphery. 8. The stator as in claim 1 , wherein the groove surrounds the circumferential surface of the bobbin at the first end side-end. 9. A brushless motor comprising: the stator of claim 1 ; and a rotor disposed facing the second ends of the teeth. 10. A stator of a motor, the stator comprising: a periphery having a cylindrical shape; a plurality of teeth extending from an inner circumferential surface of the periphery toward an inner circumferential side, the plurality of teeth being disposed along a circumferential direction of the periphery with intervals between one another; a plurality of bobbins respectively attached to the plurality of teeth, each bobbin surrounding a side surface of the corresponding tooth at an intermediate position between a first end of the tooth on a periphery side and a second end of the tooth on an opposite side from the first end; and a plurality of coils disposed on the plurality of bobbins, wherein each of the plurality of bobbins comprises: a first end-side end located on a first end side; a circumferential surface including a pair of surface portions opposing each other when seen in a cross section along an extending direction of the corresponding tooth; a groove located at the first end-side end on at least the pair of surface portions; and an enlarged width portion enlarging a width of the groove at a portion of the groove located on one of the pair of the surface portions, a width of the enlarged width portion being smaller than a wire diameter of a wire of the coil, each of the plurality of coils comprises: a wire introducing portion where the wire of the coil is introduced from outside of the bobbin into the groove at a portion located on another of the pair of surface portions; an adjusting portion continuously disposed with the wire introducing portion, the adjusting portion including one or two adjacent turns of the wire in the groove among turns of the wire wound one or two times around the bobbin; and a plurality of wire layers, each of the plurality of wire layers including the turns of the wire disposed adjacent to each other along the extending direction of the corresponding tooth, a lowest layer disposed on the pair of surface portions, among the plurality of wire layers, contacting turns of the wire included in the adjusting portion and the circumferential surface of the bobbin; in each of the plurality of coils disposed on the
