ELECTRIC MACHINE HAVING A CLAW-POLE ROTOR

摘要

The invention relates to an electric machine comprising a claw-pole rotor, particularly an electrically excited, at least 12-pole claw-pole machine (10) for a motor vehicle. The stator (16) of the machine, the winding of which has multiple phase windings and is connected to a rectifier arrangement (69) or alternatively to a pulse-controlled inverter arrangement using the phase winding connections (80 to 84) of said winding, has an inner diameter (Di) that is smaller than the associated outer diameter (Da) of the machine by a factor of 0.70 to 0.77, preferably by a factor of 0.73 to 0.75, at least in the groove center. According to the invention, the ratio of the groove widths (Bn2) at the groove openings (37) to the groove widths (Bn1) at the respective groove base (36) lies in the range of 0.69 to 0.81, preferably in the range of 0.73 to 0.78.
