Abstract

This invention relates to a coil construction for an electric motor comprising a stator having a plurality of slots and teeth, a plurality of windings Uc, Vc and Wc of the respective phases are arranged as a plurality of coil series C₁ and C₂, said coil series C₁ and C₂ are wound independently each other, whereby it is able to procure a high redundancy of said coil series C₁ and C₂.

Claims

1. A coil construction for an electric motor comprising a stator having a plurality of alternating slots and teeth surrounding a central rotor accommodating opening, a rotor mounted for rotation within said stator opening, and a plurality of windings disposed within a plurality of said stator slots and providing a plurality of phases, wherein the improvements resides in that said windings are incorporated in three independently wound coil series with each coil series containing coils for all of said phases, and each of said coil series occupying six adjacent stator slots with no two coil series occupying the same slot.

2. A coil construction for an electric motor according to claim 1, wherein each of said coil series comprises three coils, one coil for each of three phases, and each of said coils occupies two of said slots which are separated by two intervening slots.

3. A coil construction for an electric motor comprising a stator having a plurality of alternating slots and teeth surrounding a central rotor accommodating opening, a rotor mounted for rotation within said stator opening, and a plurality of windings disposed within a plurality of said stator slots and providing a plurality of phases, wherein the improvement resides in that said windings are incorporated in at least two independently wound coil series with each coil series containing three coils, one coil for each of three phases, each of said coil series occupying six adjacent stator slots with no two coil series occupying the same slot, and each of said coils occupies two of said slots which are separated by two intervening slots.
