Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A press-fitting structure has a press-fitting face of a rotor yoke formed from a laminated steel sheet is press fitted onto a face to be press-fitted of a rotor shaft, fitting is carried out with plastic deformation while the first projection of a press-fitting face of a rotor yoke, on which a first projection and a first recess extending in substantially the press-fitting direction are formed in turn, and the second projection of the face to be press-fitted of the rotor shaft, on which a second projection and a second recess extending in the direction intersecting the press-fitting direction are formed in turn, are in contact with each other. Since in a state in which press fitting is completed, the amount of plastic deformation of the second projection of the rotor shaft is larger than the amount of plastic deformation of the first projection of the rotor yoke.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A press-fitting structure that fixes a laminated steel sheet forming a magnetic path to another member by means of press fitting, wherein a first projection and a first recess are formed in turn on a press-fitting face of the laminated steel sheet, the first projection and the first recess extending in substantially a press-fitting direction, a second projection and a second recess are formed in turn on a face to be press-fitted of said another member, the second projection and the second recess extending in a direction intersecting the press-fitting direction, in a state in which the first projection and the second projection have been put in contact with each other and press fitted, an amount of plastic deformation of the second projection is larger than an amount of plastic deformation of the first projection, and a pitch of the second projection is larger than a sheet thickness of a single sheet of the laminated steel sheet. 2. The press-fitting structure according to claim 1 , wherein a hardness of the laminated steel sheet is higher than a hardness of said another member. 3. The press-fitting structure according to claim 2 , wherein a height of the first projection is smaller than the sheet thickness of a single sheet of the laminated steel sheet. 4. The press-fitting structure according to claim 1 , wherein a height of the first projection is smaller than the sheet thickness of a single sheet of the laminated steel sheet.
