Abstract

An active part of an electric machine includes a plurality of coils, each having a sub-conductor. The coils are formed by windings of the sub-conductors thereof. The windings of a coil each have a predetermined winding length. In addition, the active part has a carrier part, in the grooves of which, the coils are arranged. The coils have a winding head region which projects from an end surface of the carrier part. The coils are also arranged in the form of a tiered winding. At least one of the coils has a V-shaped cross-section in the winding head region, as a result of an arrangement of its sub-conductor

Claims

1-8. -8. (canceled)

9. An active part of an electric machine, comprising:

a plurality of coils arranged in the form of a tiered winding, each coil having a sub-conductor and formed by windings of the sub-conductor, with the windings of a corresponding one of the coils having a pre-determined winding length; and

a carrier part having grooves for receiving the coils such that a winding overhang region of the coils projects at an end face of the carrier part, with at least one of the coils configured in a two-part form to define in the winding overhang region a first coil part and a second coil part which are arranged to form a V shape in cross-section and are insulated independently from each other,

wherein the coils are distanced from each other by a pre-defined minimum spacing such that three of the coils in the tiered winding have in relation to the end face of the carrier part an inclination of 0°

, 45° and

90°

, respectively, with a tolerance range between −

25° and

+25°

, with the one of the three coils at the 45°

inclination having a V shape in cross-section.

10. The active part of claim 9, constructed in the form of a stator or a rotor.

11. The active part of claim 9, wherein the winding lengths of pairs of the coils have a difference of a maximum of 5% from each other.

12. The active part of claim 9, wherein the winding lengths of pairs of the coils have a difference of a maximum of 3% from each other.

13. The active part of claim 9, wherein the sub-conductors have a sub-conductor insulation, and the coils and/or the first coil part and the second coil part each have a tape insulation.

14. The active part of claim 9, further comprising a tape insulation configured to hold the first coil part and the second coil part together.

15. An electric machine, comprising an active part, said active part including a plurality of coils arranged in the form of a tiered winding, each coil having a sub-conductor and formed by windings of the sub-conductor, with the windings of a corresponding one of the coils having a pre-determined winding length, and a carrier part having grooves for receiving the coils such that a winding overhang region of the coils projects at an end face of the carrier part, with at least one of the coils configured in a two-part form to define in the winding overhang region a first coil part and a second coil part which are arranged to form a V shape in cross-section and are insulated independently from each other, wherein the coils are distanced from each other by a pre-defined minimum spacing such that three of the coils in the tiered winding have in relation to the end face of the carrier part an inclination of 0°

, 45° and

90°

, respectively, with a tolerance range between −

25° and

+25°

, with the one of the three coils at the 45°

inclination having a V shape in cross-section.

16. The electric machine of claim 15, wherein the active part is constructed in the form of a stator or a rotor.

17. The electric machine of claim 15, wherein the winding lengths of pairs of the coils have a difference of a maximum of 5% from each other.

18. The electric machine of claim 15, wherein the winding lengths of pairs of the coils have a difference of a maximum of 3% from each other.

19. The electric machine of claim 15, wherein the sub-conductors have a sub-conductor insulation, and the coils and/or the first coil part and the second coil part each have a tape insulation.

20. The electric machine of claim 15, further comprising a tape insulation configured to hold the first coil part and the second coil part together.

21. A method for producing an active part, comprising:

arranging coils in grooves of a carrier part at a pre-defined minimum spacing from each other;

forming each of the coils with a winding overhang region such as to project at an end face of the carrier part;

arranging the coils in the form of a tiered winding such that three of the coils are arranged in the tiered winding with an inclination of 0°

, 45° and

90°

in relation to the end face of the carrier part, respectively, with a tolerance range between −

25° and

+25°

;

dividing at least one of the coils into a first coil part and into a second coil part such that the first and second coil parts form in the winding overhang region legs of a V shape in cross-section; and

insulating the first and second coil parts insulated independently of each other by a tape insulation.

22. The method of claim 21, further comprising holding the first and second coil parts together by a second tape insulation, so as to form the V shape in cross-section in the winding overhang region.
