Electric machine, insulating cap and method for forming an insulating cap

摘要

The electric machine has a stator with windings connected to phase connections. An insulating cap protects the reciprocally connected portions of the phase connections and windings. The insulating cap has a box-shaped body with an opening for the introduction of a winding within it. The body defines a seat housing the phase connection. The seat is formed in one piece with the body.

主权项

1. An insulating cap for a rotating electric machine, said insulating cap comprising:
a body portion having an opening configured to receive a portion of a winding of said rotating electric machine; and a seat, wherein said body portion has a first longitudinal side wall, a second longitudinal side wall opposite said first side wall, a third side wall that extends from said first side wall to said second side wall, and an upper wall that extends laterally from said first side wall to said second side wall and that extends longitudinally from said third side wall to said seat, said seat is integrally formed with said body portion and said seat is U-shaped, which opens in a direction away from said body portion.
