Method of manufacturing armature of electric rotary machine
First Claim
1. A method of manufacturing an armature of an electric rotary machine comprising the steps of:
- fixing an armature core onto an armature shaft;
winding armature coils in slots formed in an outer circumference of said armature core, pairs of upper and lower lead-out portions of said armature coils being extended to a commutator arrangement space there a commutator is to be arranged;
welding said upper and lower lead-out end portions in each pair at their end portions so as to join said upper and lower lead-out end portions in each pair with each other under the condition that said upper and lower lead-out end portions in each pair are arranged vertically one on the other and parallelly to each other while forming concave portions at welding-joined portions to thereby form commutator segment portions;
arranging said commutator segment portions in alignment at predetermined intervals circumferentially around said shaft;
molding and fixedly attaching synthetic resin at said commutator arrangement space around said shaft so that also said concave portions at said welding-joined portions of said commutator segment portions are filled with said synthetic resin; and
grinding outer peripheral surfaces of the molded commutator segment portions so that commutator segments are exposed on said outer peripheral surfaces of said commutator segment portions so as to enable a commutator brush to slidably contact with said commutator segments.

Abstract
A method of manufacturing an armature of an electric rotary machine comprising the step of: fixedly attaching an armature core to a shaft which is a constituent component of the armature; winding armature coils in slots formed in the outer circumference of the armature core, the lower and upper lead-out portions of the armature coils being axially extended to a commutator arrangement space where a commutator is to be arranged; welding the respective end portions of each pair of the upper and lower lead-out end portions so as to join the upper and lower lead-out end portions in each pair with each other under the condition that the upper and lower lead-out end portions in each pair are arranged vertically one on the other and parallelly to each other while securing concave portions at the welding-joined portions to thereby form each of commutator segment portions; arranging the commutator segment portions in alignment at predetermined intervals circumferentially around the shaft; and molding and fixedly attaching an annular resin-molding body which will be made to be a body of commutator at the commutator arrangement space around the shaft in a manner so that the commutator segment portions are fixedly embedded in the annular resin-molding body, that the outer peripheral portions of the commutator segment portions are exposed from the outer circumference of the annular resin-molding body to enable a commutator brush to slidably contact with the outer peripheral portions of the commutator segment portions, and that the concave portions provided at the welding-joined portions of the commutator segment portions are filled with the resin of the annular resin-molding body.
