ELECTRIC ROTATING MACHINE

摘要

An electric rotating machine includes a multi-phase stator coil that is wound on a stator core in a distributed winding manner. Each of phase windings of the stator coil is formed of an electric wire bundle which includes a plurality of insulation-coated electric wires that are electrically connected to one another. Each of the electric wire bundles forming the phase windings has in-slot portions, which are respectively received in corresponding slots of the stator core, and turn portions that are located outside the slots of the stator core to connect adjacent pairs of the in-slot portions. Each of the electric wire bundles further includes a plurality of insulating layers that are respectively formed at predetermined positions, at which the turn portions of the electric wire bundle overlap those of the other electric wire bundles, so as to surround the electric wires of the electric wire bundle.
