Abstract

A stator core for an electronically commutated DC motor with an internal rotor having a plurality of radially inwardly directed pole cores which at their periphery are integral with back iron segments and the back iron segments are integral with adjacent back iron segments via webs, wherein the back iron segments alternate with the webs and jointly form a seamless closed one-piece ring. A method of ensuring that in the case of a stator core of this class, upon a reduction of the stator diameter and reduction of the pole distances after winding, a clearly defined end position of the adjoining regions can be assumed, and that for this process, only minimal forces are necessary, in which damage to the stator core is not to be expected, and that at the end of the process only a very small and uniform air gap remains at a lowest possible spring-back.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A stator core for an electronically commutated DC motor with an internal rotor,
the stator core comprising:
a plurality of back iron segments;
a plurality of webs having triangular areas wherein each of the webs have two outer predetermined bending lines and one intermediate predetermined bending line between the two outer bending lines, wherein the three bending lines are substantially thinner than in areas between the predetermined bending lines and wherein the intermediate predetermined bending line is arranged between two of the triangular areas of each of the webs; and
a plurality of radially inwardly directed pole cores which at their periphery are integral with the back iron segments and the back iron segments are integral with adjacent back iron segments via the webs, wherein the back iron segments alternate with the webs and jointly form a seamless closed one-piece ring, wherein the webs are arranged essentially outside of an outer circle defined by the back iron segments, wherein the distance between the intermediate predetermined bending line and the two outer predetermined bending lines is the same and is slightly larger than the thickness of the back iron segment in the radial direction.

2. A stator core with a longitudinal axis for an electronically commutated DC motor with an internal rotor, the stator core comprising:
a plurality of back iron segments;
a plurality of webs; and
a plurality of radially inwardly directed pole cores which at their periphery are integral with the back iron segments and the back iron segments are integral with adjacent back iron segments via the webs, wherein the back iron segments alternate with the webs and jointly form a seamless closed one-piece ring, wherein the webs are initially arranged essentially outside of the outer circle defined by the periphery of the back iron segments and wherein the webs have two outer predetermined bending lines parallel to the longitudinal axis and one intermediate predetermined bending line parallel to the longitudinal axis and between the two outer bending lines, wherein the three bending lines are substantially thinner than in areas between the predetermined bending lines, wherein the intermediate predetermined bending line is arranged between two triangular areas of each of the webs, and wherein the distance between the intermediate predetermined bending line and the two outer predetermined bending lines is the same and is slightly larger than the thickness of the back iron segment in the radial direction.

3. The stator core according to claim 2 , wherein the two outer predetermined bending lines are arranged at transitions between the back iron segments and the webs.

4. The stator core according to claim 2 , wherein the pole cores each have pole pieces, the spacing of which from the adjacent pole pieces is greater than the smallest distance between adjacent back iron segments.
