Segment coil, method of manufacturing segment coil, and stator including segment coil

摘要

Each of segment coils arranged as aligned in a slot of a stator core includes a coil central portion accommodated in the slot and two coil end portions protruding outward. The coil end portion of the two coil end portions includes a pair of coil pieces formed by inclining a coil at different angles toward the coil central portion with a vertex lying therebetween. Any one of the pair of coil pieces includes in a region in the vicinity of the vertex, a recessed step portion formed from two sides in non-parallel to and at an angle with respect to an end surface of the stator core.
