Abstract

The present disclosure provides a resolver including a stator core, an insulation cover for covering and insulating the stator core, an upper protection cover coupled to an upper portion of the insulation cover to cover and protect upper portions of coils wound around the stator core, a lower protection cover coupled to a lower portion of the insulation cover to cover and protect lower portions of the coils, a hook configured to extend from the upper protection cover in the downward direction, and a hook-catching portion formed at the insulation cover such that the lower end portion of the hook is hooked thereon in the upward direction.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A resolver comprising:
a stator core;
an insulation cover configured to cover and insulate the stator core;
an upper protection cover coupled to an upper portion of the insulation cover, the upper protection cover configured to cover and protect upper portions of coils wound around the stator core;
a lower protection cover coupled to a lower portion of the insulation cover, the lower protection cover configured to cover and protect lower portions of the coils;
at least one hook configured to extend from the upper protection cover in a downward direction; and
at least one hook-catching portion formed at the insulation cover such that a lower portion of the hook is hooked thereon in an upward direction.

2. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein the insulation cover, the upper protection cover, and the lower protection cover, respectively, is formed in a ring shape that extends along the stator core.

3. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein the lower portion of the insulation cover is coupled and fixed to the lower protection cover through ultrasonic welding.

4. The resolver of claim 3 , wherein:
the insulation cover and the lower protection cover, respectively, is formed in the ring shape that extends along the stator core, and
the lower protection cover comprises an energy director, the energy director being formed in a circumferential direction of the lower protection cover such that the lower portion of the insulation cover is ultrasonic-welded to the lower protection cover over an entire circumference of the lower protection cover by the energy director.

5. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein the upper protection cover comprises:
a plate portion formed in a ring shape, the plate portion having a bottom surface from which the hook extends in the downward direction; and
a side wall configured to extend continuously along an outer circumferential surface of the plate portion and to protrude in the downward direction,
wherein the hook is hooked on the hook-catching portion when the side wall is in close contact with an outer circumferential surface of the insulation cover.

6. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein the hook-catching portion is formed in a recess having a step in which the lower portion of the hook is inserted and caught in the upward direction.

7. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein:
the at least one hook comprises a plurality of hooks arranged at predetermined intervals in a circumferential direction of the upper protection cover, and
the at least one hook-catching portion comprises a plurality of hook-catching portions arranged at predetermined intervals in a circumferential direction of the insulation cover.

8. The resolver of claim 1 , wherein the lower protection cover comprises:
at least one hook-fixing portion configured to:
support a lower portion of the hook hooked on the hook-catching portion; and
prevent the hook from being separated from the hook-catching portion.

9. The resolver of claim 8 , wherein the lower protection cover comprises:
a plate portion formed in a ring shape, the plate portion having a top surface from which the hook-fixing portion protrudes to a predetermined height in the upward direction; and
a side wall configured to extend continuously along an outer circumferential surface of the plate portion and protruding in the upward direction.
