| 20080316786 | Cooling-fin mounted rectifier for vehicular AC generators - A rectifier for an alternating current generator is provided. The rectifier comprise a plurality of high-side rectifying elements and a plurality of low-side rectifying elements. The high-side rectifying elements are held by a plurality of high-side cooling fins, while the high-side rectifying elements are held by a plurality of low-side cooling fins. By way of example, the plurality of high-side cooling fins are disposed to be apart from each other by a predetermined distance and the plurality of low-side cooling fins are disposed to be apart from each other by a predetermined distance. | 12-25-2008 |
| 20100026130 | Electric rotary machine for vehicle - An AC alternator for a vehicle has a rotor having a pair of pole cores, and a stator. A plurality of claw magnetic pole parts are formed in the pole cores. A permanent magnet is placed between a pair of the claw magnetic pole parts so as to prevent leakage of magnetic flux through the area between the adjacent claw magnetic pole parts. The stator and the rotor are placed in the AC alternator so that the stator faces the rotor at a spacing of predetermined intervals. Flanges are formed at both sides of each of the claw magnetic pole parts. The presence of the flanges fixes the permanent magnets to the pole cores, and prevents them from moving toward the outer radius direction measured from the rotary shaft of the rotor. In particular, the thickness of each of the flange parts is increased from the front end part to the bottom part thereof. | 02-04-2010 |
| 20100071196 | Method of manufacturing rotor for dynamoelectric machine - There is disclosed a method of manufacturing a rotor for a dynamoelectric machine. The rotor includes a rotating shaft, a rotor core fixed on the rotating shaft, and a cooling fan fixed to an axial end face of the rotor core. The method includes the step of fixing the cooling fan to the axial end face of the rotor core by resistance welding. The method is characterized in that in the resistance welding, both a positive electrode and a negative electrode are first brought into contact with the cooling fan to have the cooling fan held between the axial end face of the rotor core and both the positive and negative electrodes, and then weld current is supplied to flow from the positive electrode to the negative electrode. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100109466 | Rotor for electric rotary machine - A rotor for an electric rotary machine and a method of manufacturing the same are disclosed wherein none of permanent magnets is fixed to a magnetic supporting segment of a magnet support ring in advance and each permanent magnet is assembled separately of the magnet support ring. Prior to the assembling of the permanent magnets, the magnet support ring is preliminarily located on claw-shaped magnetic poles at inner peripheral sides thereof under a state combined with a pair of field iron cores, after which the permanent magnets are inserted to magnet insertion spaces in longitudinal directions. The rotor includes positioning and restricting means for precluding the occurrence of positional displacement of each permanent magnet with respect to each magnet supporting segment of the magnet support ring. | 05-06-2010 |
