Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to a rotor ( 1 ) of a rotary electric machine, comprising: a body ( 3 ) comprising a cylindrical central core ( 5 ) and a circumferential plurality of arms (B 1 . . . B 18 ) extending radially out from the cylindrical central core ( 5 ), the body ( 3 ) being intended to be mounted with the ability to move about an axis of rotation X, a coilset produced by windings of turns and forming at least one series of coils (C 1 . . . C 9 , C 1 ′ . . . C 9 ′), a coil (C 1 . . . C 9 , C 1 ′ . . . C 9 ′) comprising a predetermined number of turns around at least two arms (B 1 . . . B 18 ) of the body ( 3 ), two adjacent coils (C 1 . . . C 9 , C 1 ′ . . . C 9 ′) of a series being angularly offset from one another with a partial overlap, in which the last coil (C 9 , C 9 ′), situated radially furthest towards the outside, comprises a predetermined number of turns that is lower than the predetermined number of turns of the other coils of the series (C 1 . . . C 8 , C 1 ′ . . . C 8 ′).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A rotor of a rotary electric machine, comprising: a body comprising a cylindrical central core and a circumferential plurality of arms extending radially out from the cylindrical central core, the body being mounted with the ability to move about an axis of rotation X; a coilset produced by windings of turns and forming at least one series of coils; a coil comprising a predetermined number of turns around at least two arms of the body, two adjacent coils of a series being angularly offset from one another with a partial overlap, wherein the last coil of a series, situated radially furthest towards the outside, comprises a predetermined number of turns that is lower than the predetermined number of turns of the other coils of the series, wherein the at least one series of coils comprises at least one additional turn wound between several arms of which at least one is different from the arms around which the last coil of the series is wound, and wherein the at least one additional turn extends in a direction that is determined by 360° divided by a number of poles of the rotary electric machine with respect to the direction of the turns of the last coil of the series. 2. The rotor according to claim 1 , in which the at least one additional turn is wound around at least one of the arms around which the last coil of the series is wound. 3. The rotor according to claim 1 , in which the at least one additional turn partially overlaps the turns of the last coil of the series. 4. The rotor according to claim 1 , comprising two series of coils arranged at 180° with respect to one another with respect to the axis of rotation X. 5. The rotor according to claim 1 , in which the arms of the body have the overall shape of a T of which the base is directed towards the axis of rotation X and of which the free end forms two salient turn-retention returns, the predetermined number of turns of the last coil of the at least one series being determined such that the turns of the said last coil are at least partially comprised in a space defined by straight lines passing through the end of the salient returns allowing retention of the turns of the said last coil and perpendicular to a straight line connecting the ends of the said salient returns allowing retention of the turns of the said last coil. 6. The rotor according to claim 1 , configured to collaborate with a stator of the rotary electric machine comprising a number of poles greater than or equal to four.
