Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

This axial gap-type rotary electrical machine has: a stator in which a plurality of core units each configured from a core, a coil, and a bobbin are disposed, centered around a rotating shaft, in an annular shape along the inner circumferential surface of a housing; and a rotor that is face-to-face with a cross-sectional surface of the core through a predetermined gap in a radial direction of the rotating shaft. The bobbin is formed in a cylindrical shape, has flange parts extending a predetermined amount in the outer circumferential direction at the top and bottom of the cylindrical shape, is provided with notch sections on the tip part in the inner circumferential direction of the flange part of the bobbin, and forms an acute angle. In addition, approximately circular notch sections are formed on adjacent side surface portions of the bobbin in the outer circumferential direction of the bobbin. Accordingly, when forming the stator by means of molding, a resin mold is made to easily flow, and damage to the bobbin of the core unit can be avoided.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An axial gap-type rotary electrical machine comprising: a stator in which a plurality of core units formed by a core, a coil and a bobbin is arranged annularly along an inner circumferential surface of a housing around a rotary shaft; and a rotor face-to-face with an end surface of the core via a predetermined gap in a radial direction of the rotary shaft, wherein the bobbin has a flange portion having a cylindrical shape and extending upward and downward from the cylindrical shape by a predetermined amount over an outer circumferential direction, and a notch section provided on a side surface in the vicinity of an inner circumferential direction or an outer circumferential direction of the flange portion of the bobbin, wherein a notch section is provided at both the tip portion in the inner circumferential direction of the flange portion corresponding to an upper surface of the bobbin at the time of molding and the tip portion in the inner circumferential direction of the flange portion corresponding to a lower surface of the bobbin at the time of molding, and a notch angle of the notch section of the tip portion in the inner circumferential direction of the flange portion corresponding to the upper surface of the bobbin at the time of molding is larger than a notch angle of the notch section of the tip portion in the inner circumferential direction of the flange portion corresponding to the lower surface of the bobbin at the time of molding. 2. The axial gap-type rotary electrical machine according to claim 1 , wherein the notch section has an acute angle and is provided at a tip of the flange portion of the bobbin in the inner circumferential direction. 3. The axial gap-type rotary electrical machine according to claim 1 , wherein the notch section on a side surface in the vicinity of the flange portion of the bobbin in the outer circumferential direction has a substantially semicircular shape or a substantially semi-elliptical shape. 4. An axial gap-type rotary electrical machine comprising: a stator in which a plurality of core units formed by a core, a coil and a bobbin is arranged annularly along an inner circumferential surface of a housing around a rotary shaft; and a rotor face-to-face with an end surface of the core via a predetermined gap in a radial direction of the rotary shaft, wherein the bobbin has a flange portion having a cylindrical shape and extending upward and downward from the cylindrical shape by a predetermined amount over an outer circumferential direction, and a convex portion surrounding an outer circumference of an inner cylindrical portion of the bobbin and having protrusions of constant width in a vertical direction, and a notch section provided at a tip portion of the flange portion of the bobbin in the inner circumferential direction, and a shape of the notch section on a rotary shaft side of the bobbin is formed in a linear shape to be coplanar with the convex portion.
