Abstract

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a direct current motor wherein the number of coil-connecting wires that cross the outer surface of a coil end part is reduced. In a direct current motor that is provided with an armature that has a plurality of armature slots and has an armature coil that is wound so as to span two armature slots that are separated by a fixed number of armature slots, a lowermost layer of a coil end part is provided with at least four armature coils that are wound through other armature slots so as not to coincide with the wound armature coil, and a layer above the four armature coils that are wound on the bottommost layer is provided with at least four armature coils that are wound in the same manner as the four armature coils.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A direct-current motor including an armature including a plurality of armature slots and an armature coil wound to stride over two of the armature slots away from each other with a certain number of the armature slots interposed therebetween, the direct-current motor comprising:
at least four armature coils each wound on a lowermost layer of a coil end portion without overlapping with the armature coil wound through the different armature slots,
wherein, on a higher layer than the four armature coils wound on the lowermost layer, at least four armature coils wound in an equal pattern to that of the four armature coils are provided
wherein the four armature coils wound on the lowermost layer have coil sides thereof adjacent to each other housed in the respective equal armature slots, and the four armature coils wound on the higher layer than the lowermost layer have coil sides thereof adjacent to each other housed in the respective equal armature slots,
wherein the armature coils constitute a plurality of coil groups each including coils which get an equal number to the number of pole pairs P, each of the coil groups being wound by one continuous winding conductor, and a coil group including (P−1) coils,
wherein a part between two coils wound by one continuous winding conductor is retained in a conductor retaining portion of a commutator segment in a state in which the two coils are continuous, and
wherein each end portion of each of the coil groups is cut in a state of being retained in a conductor retaining portion of a different commutator segment from the commutator segment.

2. The direct-current motor according to claim 1 , wherein the number of the coil groups each including the P coils corresponds to a natural number obtained by cutting off at a first decimal place a value obtained by dividing the number of slots Ns by the number of pole pairs P, and the number of the coil groups including the (P−1) coils is one.

3. The direct-current motor according to claim 2 , wherein a commutator includes a plurality of conductor retaining portions in each of which two independent winding conductors are retained as each end portion of each of the coil groups is retained in each of the conductor retaining portions, and a plurality of conductor retaining portions in each of which one winding conductor is retained as a part between two coils wound by one continuous winding conductor is retained in each of the conductor retaining portions in a state in which the two coils are continuous, and
wherein the plurality of conductor retaining portions in each of which two winding conductors are retained and the plurality of conductor retaining portions in each of which one winding conductor is retained are arrayed in two separate areas in a circumferential direction of the commutator.

4. The direct-current motor according to claim 3 , wherein the number of poles of a field magnet is four or more.

5. The direct-current motor according to claim 4 , wherein the number of the coil groups is four or more.

6. The direct-current motor according to claim 3 , wherein the number of poles of a field magnet is four, and the number of slots is thirteen.

7. The direct-current motor according to claim 3 , wherein the number of the coil groups is four or more, the number of poles of a field magnet is six, and the number of slots is seventeen.
