A stator assembly and a motor
[0001] This application is a divisional application of application number 202010925693.0, with the parent application filed on September 4, 2020, and the invention title is: A stator assembly and a motor. Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the field of motor technology, and in particular to a stator assembly and a motor. Background Technology
[0003] The peak power density of drive motors for new energy vehicles needs to reach 4kW / kg. Currently, the peak power density of motors is between 3.2-3.3kW / kg, leaving considerable room for improvement. To achieve this increase in power density, flat-wire motors represent the future development direction for automotive drive motors. Compared to round-wire motors, flat-wire motors have a higher slot fill factor, shorter winding ends, higher power density, and stronger heat dissipation capabilities, making them particularly suitable for the miniaturization and weight reduction requirements of automotive drive motors.
[0004] However, existing flat-wire motors suffer from more severe skin effect and lower assembly efficiency compared to round-wire motors. To mitigate the skin effect, flat-wire motors typically increase the number of conductor layers in the slots and reduce the thickness of the flat wire. As the number of flat wire layers increases, the winding connection methods also increase. Inappropriate connection methods can lead to winding inductance imbalance, resulting in winding circulating current, increased additional copper losses in the windings, and inconvenience in assembling flat-wire windings. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a stator assembly and motor that makes the back EMF, resistance, and inductance of each parallel sub-winding of the stator winding the same, and the current through each parallel sub-winding is also the same. This avoids additional losses caused by circulating currents between parallel sub-windings, thereby improving motor efficiency, reducing winding temperature rise, improving NVH performance, and increasing assembly efficiency.

The total number of the first intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal, and the total number of the second intermediate hairpin coils is also equal.
[0010] Optionally, both the first intermediate hairpin coil and the second intermediate hairpin coil are full-pitch hairpin coils.

The total number of the first full-pitch hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal, and the total number of the second full-pitch hairpin coils is also equal.
[0011] Optionally, one of the first intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is a long-pitch hairpin coil, and the other is a short-pitch hairpin coil.

The total number of intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, the pitch type of the intermediate hairpin coils is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same, so that the positions of the two sub-windings in the slots correspond, thereby making the back EMF, resistance, and inductance of the two sub-windings equal.

On the other hand, it suppresses electromagnetic noise of the motor and improves NVH performance. Furthermore, it reduces the number of manufacturing molds, lowers costs, and improves processing and manufacturing efficiency. The positions of the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding are not restricted and can be flexibly set as needed, which facilitates improved welding and assembly efficiency.

[0024] Existing flat-wire motors exhibit a more severe skin effect than round-wire motors. To mitigate this effect, flat-wire motors typically increase the number of conductor layers within the slots and reduce the thickness of the flat wire. As the number of flat wire layers increases, so do the winding connection methods. Inappropriate connection methods can lead to winding inductance imbalance, resulting in winding circulating current and increased additional copper losses in the windings.
[0025] In view of this, the present invention proposes a stator assembly and a motor, which aims to make the back EMF, resistance and inductance of each parallel sub-winding of the stator winding the same, and the current through each parallel sub-winding the same, so as to avoid additional losses caused by circulating current between parallel sub-windings, thereby improving motor efficiency and reducing winding temperature rise, and improving NVH performance.

[0027] As shown in Figures 1-2, the motor provided in this embodiment of the invention is a three-phase motor, i.e., M=3, which is composed of an annular rotor assembly 1 and an annular stator assembly 2. The rotor assembly 1 includes a rotor core and a shaft 7 made of silicon steel sheets. The number of rotor poles is 8, i.e., P=4. Various rotor magnetic circuit structures can be applied to the high-density hairpin stator of this invention, such as surface-mounted rotor, built-in radial rotor (I type), built-in tangential rotor (Spoke type), multi-layer magnet rotor, hybrid magnetic circuit rotor ("V", "V+I", "V+V", etc.), and Halbach array and other rotor structures.
[0028] The stator assembly 2 includes a stator core 5 and an M-phase stator winding 4. The inner periphery of the stator core has N slots 3 spaced apart and extending radially along the stator core. The M-phase stator winding consists of three-phase stator coils 4 wound on the stator core. Each slot 3 is formed between an adjacent pair of stator teeth 6, with the slot opening being semi-closed. The three-phase stator coils 4 are respectively arranged in each slot 3, and the coils in each slot 3 are arranged in L layers from the inside to the outside along the radial direction of the motor, where L is an even number greater than or equal to 4. In this embodiment of the invention, N=48, L=6 or 4. Taking L=6 as an example, please refer to Figure 2. The coils are arranged in layers 1 to 6 from the outside to the inside along the radial direction of the stator core. Each layer is a straight segment of a hairpin coil 8, which will be described in detail below.
[0029] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, each phase of the three-phase stator coil includes two sub-windings connected in series or in parallel. Two sub-windings connected in series constitute one branch, and two connected in parallel constitute two branches. The following embodiments will only be described using two branches in parallel as an example. Embodiments with one branch are not illustrated. The present invention does not limit the connection method between the three phases. In one embodiment of the present invention, please refer to Figure 3. The three-phase connection method is a star connection. Specifically, the three phases are phase U, phase V, and phase W. Phase U includes two sub-windings U1 and U2 connected in parallel, phase V includes two sub-windings V1 and V2 connected in parallel, and phase W includes two sub-windings W1 and W2 connected in parallel. The three phases are connected together at one end to form a node N.
[0030] In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to FIG4, the three phases are U phase, V phase and W phase respectively. The U phase includes two parallel sub-windings U1 and U2, the V phase includes two parallel sub-windings V1 and V2, and the W phase includes two parallel sub-windings W1 and W2. The end of each phase is connected to the front end of the subsequent phase, and then the terminal wires are led out from the three connection points.
[0031] The stator assembly proposed in this invention is used for an M-phase motor with a rotor pole number of 2p. It includes a stator core and an M-phase stator winding. The inner periphery of the stator core has N slots that are spaced apart and extend radially along the stator core. The M-phase stator winding is formed by winding multiple hairpin coils in the slots to form L layers. M is a positive integer and L is an even number greater than or equal to 4. In the embodiment of this invention, P=4, M=3, N=48, and L=4 or 6.
[0032] Each phase stator winding includes two sub-windings. For example, in a three-phase system, the sub-windings are U-phase, V-phase, and W-phase. The U-phase includes two parallel or series-connected sub-windings, U1 and U2. The V-phase includes two parallel-connected sub-windings, V1 and V2. The W-phase includes two parallel-connected sub-windings, W1 and W2. Each sub-winding has multiple hairpin coils, which are distributed in L different layers of N slots. The multiple hairpin coils of each sub-winding include a first hairpin coil located in the first layer of the slot, a second hairpin coil located in the Lth layer of the slot, and an intermediate hairpin coil located between the first and Lth layers of the slot. The first hairpin coils of the two sub-windings are short-pitch hairpin coils, and the second hairpin coils of the two sub-windings are long-pitch hairpin coils. The total number of intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, and the pitch type of the intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, and their distribution in each pitch type is also the same.
[0033] In the technical solution of this invention, a stator assembly is designed, in which L layers of conductors (L is an even number greater than or equal to 4) are distributed in each slot of the stator core. Two sub-windings are connected in series or in parallel. The first hairpin coil of the two sub-windings is a short-pitch hairpin coil, and the second hairpin coil of the two sub-windings is a long-pitch hairpin coil, so that the hairpin coils of the first layer and the Lth layer correspond to each other. The total number of intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is the same, the pitch type of the intermediate hairpin coils is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same, so that the positions of the two sub-windings in the slots correspond, thereby making the back EMF, resistance and inductance of the two sub-windings the same, and the current through the two sub-windings is also the same. In this way, on the one hand, the circulating current generated between the two sub-windings is avoided, thereby significantly reducing the additional AC copper loss at high frequencies, improving the motor efficiency at high speeds, and avoiding local overheating of the windings, thus extending the life of the motor. On the other hand, the electromagnetic noise of the motor is suppressed, the NVH performance is improved, and the motor is more suitable for high-speed applications without increasing the inverter capacity.
[0034] In this embodiment of the invention, multiple hairpin coils of each sub-winding are distributed in L different layers of N slots. The hairpin coils are interconnected to form a sub-winding. Please refer to Figures 5 to 8. According to their shape, hairpin coils can be divided into U-shaped hairpin coils and I-shaped hairpin coils.
[0035] Figure 5 shows an embodiment of a U-shaped hairpin coil. The first U-shaped hairpin coil 12 includes two straight segments 16, a connecting segment 13, a left end 141, and a right end 142, forming an overall U-shape. The two straight segments 16 are inserted into adjacent layers of two slots 3. The left end 141 and right end 142 of the first U-shaped hairpin coil are bent in opposite directions. The first U-shaped hairpin coil 12 is connected to the ends of other hairpin coils by welding on the opposite side of the stator core 5 insertion side.
[0036] Figure 6 shows another embodiment of the U-shaped hairpin coil, the second U-shaped hairpin coil 21, which includes two straight segments 25 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil, a connecting segment 22 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil connecting the two straight segments 25, a left end 231 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil, and a right end 232 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil, forming an overall U-shape. The two straight segments 25 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil are respectively inserted into the same layer of the two slots 3. The left end 231 and the right end 232 of the second U-shaped hairpin coil are bent in the same direction. The first U-shaped hairpin coil 12 is connected to the ends of other hairpin coils by welding on the opposite side of the stator core 5 insertion side.
[0037] Figure 7 shows an embodiment of a type I hairpin coil. The first type I hairpin coil 17 includes a straight section 19, an upper end 18, and a lower end 20, forming an overall I shape. The straight section 19 is inserted into a layer of the slot 3. The upper end 18 and the lower end 20 are bent in opposite directions. The lower end 20 is connected to other hairpin coil ends by welding on the opposite side of the stator core 5 insertion side.
[0038] Figure 8 shows another embodiment of the type I hairpin coil, a second type I hairpin coil 26, which includes a straight section 28, an upper end 27, and a lower end 29, forming an overall I shape. The straight section 28 is inserted into a layer of the slot 3. The upper end 27 and the lower end 29 are bent in the same direction. On the opposite side of the stator core 5 insertion side, the lower end 20 of the straight section 28 of the first type I hairpin coil is connected to the ends of other hairpin coils by welding. In this embodiment, the type I hairpin coil is located at the end of the coil and connected to the lead wire.
[0039] It should be noted that in Figures 5 and 6, reference numerals 15 and 24 represent the pitches of the first and second U-shaped hairpin coils, respectively, indicating the distance between the two straight segments of the hairpin coil, i.e., the number of slots the hairpin coil spans—the pitch. In the stator assembly described above, each sub-winding of each phase stator winding contains coils with three pitches: a full-pitch hairpin coil with a pitch of N / (2P), a long-pitch hairpin coil with a pitch of N / (2P)+1, and a short-pitch hairpin coil with a pitch of N / (2P)-1. In this embodiment of the invention, the total number of intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, the pitch type of the intermediate hairpin coils is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same. This indicates that the number, pitch type, and distribution of the hairpin coils used in the intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings are the same. Through the above arrangement, switching between adjacent slots under the same rotor magnetic pole can be achieved, eliminating the phase difference caused by a slot pitch.
[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, referring to Figures 9 to 12, preferably, in the first layer of the slot, the short-pitch hairpin coils distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, and the two short-pitch hairpin coils are arranged with a slot between them.
[0041] Similarly, in the Lth layer of the slot, the long-pitch hairpin coils distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, and the two long-pitch hairpin coils are arranged to cross one slot.
[0042] The present invention does not limit the form of the intermediate hairpin coil, as long as the total number of intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is the same, the pitch type of the intermediate hairpin coils is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same. Preferably, the intermediate hairpin coil may include a full-pitch hairpin coil; the intermediate hairpin coil may also include a long-pitch hairpin coil and a short-pitch hairpin coil.
[0043] Taking L=6 as an example, the distribution of the intermediate hairpin coils is explained below. The multiple intermediate hairpin coils include: a first intermediate hairpin coil, distributed in the second and third layers of the slot, with the two straight segments of the first intermediate hairpin coil located in the second and third layers of the slot respectively; and a second intermediate hairpin coil, distributed in the fourth and fifth layers of the slot, with the two straight segments of the second intermediate hairpin coil located in the fourth and fifth layers of the slot respectively. The total number of the first intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal, and the total number of the second intermediate hairpin coils is also equal.
[0044] In the first embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil of the present invention, i.e., when the intermediate hairpin coil includes a long-pitch hairpin coil and a short-pitch hairpin coil, please refer to FIG9. One of the first intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is a long-pitch hairpin coil and the other is a short-pitch hairpin coil. The long-pitch hairpin coil and the short-pitch hairpin coil distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, with the long-pitch hairpin coil wrapped around the short-pitch hairpin coil. One of the second intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is a corresponding long-pitch hairpin coil and the other is a short-pitch hairpin coil. The long-pitch hairpin coil and the short-pitch hairpin coil distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, with the long-pitch hairpin coil wrapped around the short-pitch hairpin coil.
[0045] Specifically, taking the U phase as an example, please refer to Figure 9. 48 slots are formed at intervals on the inner periphery of the stator core 5 and extend radially along the stator core, i.e., N=48. The reference numerals 1, 2, 3...47, 48 in Figure 9 indicate the slot numbers.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 9 for the first winding U1 of phase U, which includes coil groups U11, U12, U14, U16, U15, and U13 distributed in layers 1, 2, 4, 6, 5, and 3, totaling 24 series-connected coils.

The second winding U2 lead U2+ is located in the first layer, and the neutral lead U2- is located in the first layer.The second winding U2 includes an I-type hairpin coil 211 inserted into slot 2 of layer 1, a coil 221 inserted into slot 8 of layer 2 and slot 13 of layer 3, a coil 241 inserted into slot 19 of layer 4 and slot 26 of layer 5, a coil 261 inserted into slot 32 of layer 6 and slot 25 of layer 6, a coil 251 inserted into slot 19 of layer 5 and slot 14 of layer 4, and a coil 231 inserted into slot 8 of layer 3 and slot 1 of layer 2. Coil 212 is inserted into slot 43 and slot 38 of layer 1; coil 222 is inserted into slot 44 of layer 2 and slot 1 of layer 3; coil 242 is inserted into slot 7 of layer 4 and slot 14 of layer 5; coil 262 is inserted into slot 20 and slot 13 of layer 6; coil 252 is inserted into slot 7 of layer 5 and slot 2 of layer 4; coil 232 is inserted into slot 44 of layer 3 and slot 37 of layer 2; coil 212 is inserted into slot 31 of layer 1. Coil 213 is inserted into slot 213 of layer 1 and slot 26 of layer 2; coil 223 is inserted into slot 32 of layer 2 and slot 37 of layer 3; coil 243 is inserted into slot 43 of layer 4 and slot 2 of layer 5; coil 263 is inserted into slot 8 of layer 6 and slot 1 of layer 6; coil 253 is inserted into slot 43 of layer 5 and slot 38 of layer 4; coil 233 is inserted into slot 32 of layer 3 and slot 25 of layer 2; and coil 233 is inserted into slot 19 of layer 1 and slot 1 of layer 1. Coil 214 in slot 4, coil 224 in slot 20 of layer 2 and slot 25 of layer 3, coil 244 in slot 31 of layer 4 and slot 38 of layer 5, coil 264 in slot 44 of layer 6 and slot 37 of layer 6, coil 254 in slot 31 of layer 5 and slot 26 of layer 4, coil 234 in slot 20 of layer 3 and slot 13 of layer 2, and I-shaped coil 215 in slot 7 of layer 1. All I-shaped and U-shaped coils are connected together by welding their ends, forming winding U2 in series.
[0047] The aforementioned end welding can be performed using single-end welding, double-end welding, or continuous beading (without welding).
[0048] In the above embodiment, the total number of long-pitch hairpin coils and the total number of short-pitch hairpin coils in the middle hairpin coils of the two sub-windings are equal. Since the total number of long-pitch hairpin coils in the first layer and the Lth layer of the two sub-windings are equal, and the total number of short-pitch hairpin coils are also equal, the total number of long-pitch hairpin coils and the total number of short-pitch hairpin coils in the two sub-windings are equal, making the positions of the two sub-windings correspond in the slots. Consequently, the back EMF, resistance, and inductance of the two sub-windings are the same, and the current through the two sub-windings is also the same.
[0049] The present invention does not restrict the position of the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding. In this embodiment, the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding are located in the first layer of the slot at the same time. For example, the voltage lead U1+ and neutral lead U1- of U1 are both in the first layer. In other embodiments, it is obvious that the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding are located in the Lth layer of the slot at the same time, which facilitates wiring.
[0050] Furthermore, in the second embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil, referring to Figure 10, in another embodiment, the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding are located in the second and third layers of the slot, respectively. That is, the voltage lead U1+ is located in slot 14 of the third layer, the neutral lead U1- is located in slot 7 of the second layer, the voltage lead U2+ is located in slot 13 of the third layer, and the neutral lead U2- is located in slot 8 of the second layer.
[0051] In the fifth embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil, as shown in Figure 13, the voltage lead and neutral lead of each sub-winding are located in the second layer and the first layer of the slot, respectively.
[0052] Similarly, in the third type of U-phase input / output connection, the voltage lead U1+ is located in slot 26 of layer 5, the neutral lead U1- is located in slot 19 of layer 4, the voltage lead U2+ is located in slot 25 of layer 5, and the neutral lead U2- is located in slot 20 of layer 4.
[0053] It should be noted that each phase stator winding of the present invention includes two sub-windings. The two sub-windings can be connected in series to form one path or connected in parallel to form two paths. When connected in series, the U1- lead wire and the U2+ lead wire are connected to each other. Therefore, the U-phase lead wires are U1+ and U2-, realizing the case of one path. The structure is simple and highly flexible.
[0054] Furthermore, since the stator assembly is annular, the distribution of the hairpin coils in different slots essentially spans different radii. Therefore, the distance between the two straight segments of the hairpin coils at different positions will be different. That is, the distance between the two straight segments of the long-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the second and third layers is different from that of the long-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the fourth and fifth layers; similarly, the distance between the two straight segments of the short-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the second and third layers is different from that of the short-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the fourth and fifth layers.
[0055] In this embodiment of the invention, the first intermediate hairpin coil includes a first long-pitch hairpin coil and a first short-pitch hairpin coil, and the second intermediate hairpin coil includes a second long-pitch hairpin coil and a second short-pitch hairpin coil. Both the first and second long-pitch hairpin coils are long-pitch coils, and both the first and second short-pitch hairpin coils are short-pitch coils. The total number of the first long-pitch hairpin coil, the first short-pitch hairpin coil, the second long-pitch hairpin coil, and the second short-pitch hairpin coil in both sub-windings is equal. That is, in this invention, the intermediate layer uses (N-2) / 2 types of long-pitch hairpin coils and (N-2) / 2 types of short-pitch hairpin coils. In this embodiment, the intermediate layer uses two types of long-pitch hairpin coils and two types of short-pitch hairpin coils, which can further eliminate the differences between the two sub-windings and achieve identical back EMF, resistance, and inductance between the two sub-windings.
[0056] In the third embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil of the present invention, that is, when the intermediate hairpin coil includes a full-pitch hairpin coil, please refer to FIG11. The first intermediate hairpin coil and the second intermediate hairpin coil are both full-pitch hairpin coils, and the total number of full-pitch hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal.
[0057] Specifically, taking the U phase as an example, 48 slots are formed at intervals on the inner periphery of the stator core 5 and extend radially along the stator core, i.e., N=48. The reference numerals 1, 2, 3...47, 48 in Figure 11 indicate the slot numbers.
[0058] Referring to Figure 11, the first winding U1 includes coil groups U11, U12, U14, U16, U15, and U13; the second winding U2 includes coil groups U21, U22, U24, U26, U25, and U23. The U-phase first sub-winding U1 lead U1+ is located in the first layer, and the neutral lead U1- is also located in the first layer. The first winding U1 includes hairpin coils 111, 121, 141, 161, 151, 131, 112, 122, 142, 162, 152, 132, 113, 123, 143, 163, 153, 133, 114, 124, 144, 164, 154, 134, and 115. Each type I coil and type U coil is connected together by welding at the ends of the coils, forming a series winding U1.
[0059] Referring to Figure 11, the U-phase second sub-winding U2's lead U2+ is located on the first layer, and the neutral lead U2- is also located on the first layer. The second winding U2 includes hairpin coils 211, 221, 241, 261, 251, 231, 212, 222, 242, 262, 252, 232, 213, 223, 243, 263, 253, 233, 214, 224, 244, 264, 254, 234, and 215. All I-type and U-type coils are connected together by welding at their ends, forming winding U2 in series.
[0060] In the above embodiments, the total number of full-pitch hairpin coils in the intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is equal. Since the total number of long-pitch hairpin coils in the first and Lth layers of the two sub-windings is equal, and the total number of short-pitch hairpin coils is also equal, the total number of hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal. This ensures that the total number of hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, the corresponding pitch type is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same. This makes the positions of the two sub-windings correspond in the slots, resulting in the same back EMF, resistance, and inductance of the two sub-windings, and the same current flowing through the two sub-windings. Furthermore, since the hairpin coils in the intermediate layer are all full-pitch hairpin coils, the number of pitch types of U-shaped hairpin coils used is reduced, the number of manufacturing molds is reduced, costs are lowered, and manufacturing efficiency is improved.
[0061] Furthermore, since the stator assembly is annular, the distribution of the hairpin coils in different slots essentially spans different radii. Therefore, the distance between the two straight segments of the full-pitch hairpin coils will be different at different positions. That is, the distance between the two straight segments of the full-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the second and third layers is different from that of the full-pitch hairpin coils distributed between the fourth and fifth layers.
[0062] In this embodiment, the full-pitch hairpin coil of the first intermediate hairpin coil is a first full-pitch hairpin coil, and the full-pitch hairpin coil of the second intermediate hairpin coil is a second full-pitch hairpin coil. The total number of first full-pitch hairpin coils in both sub-windings is equal, and the total number of second full-pitch hairpin coils is also equal. That is, in this invention, the intermediate layer uses (N-2) / 2 types of full-pitch hairpin coils, i.e., in this embodiment, the intermediate layer uses two types of full-pitch hairpin coils, which can further eliminate the differences between the two sub-windings and achieve the same back EMF, resistance, and inductance in the two sub-windings.
[0063] In the fourth embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil of the present invention, please refer to Figure 12, L=4, the plurality of intermediate hairpin coils include: full-pitch hairpin coils, distributed in the second and third layers of the slot, the two straight segments of the full-pitch hairpin coils are respectively located in the second and third layers of the slot, and the total number of full-pitch hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal.
[0064] Specifically, taking the U phase as an example, please refer to Figure 12. 48 slots are formed at intervals on the inner periphery of the stator core 5 and extend radially along the stator core, i.e., N=48. The reference numerals 1, 2, 3...47, 48 in Figure 12 indicate the slot numbers.
[0065] Specifically, referring to Figure 12, each slot contains four conductor layers. The first winding U1 includes coil groups U11, U12, U14, and U13; the second winding U2 includes coil groups U21, U22, U24, and U23. The U-phase first sub-winding U1 lead U1+ is located on the third layer, and the neutral lead U1- is located on the second layer. The first winding U1 includes hairpin coils 131, 141, 132, 111, 121, 142, 133, 112, 122, 143, 134, 113, 123, 144, 135, 114, and 124. The various I-type and U-type coils are connected together by welding at their ends, forming winding U1 in series.
[0066] The U-phase second winding U2's lead-out line U2+ is located on the third layer, and the neutral lead-out line U2- is located on the second layer. The second winding U2 includes hairpin coils 231, 241, 232, 211, 221, 242, 233, 212, 222, 243, 234, 213, 223, 244, 235, 214, and 224. All I-type and U-type coils are connected together in series via welding at their ends to form winding U2.
[0067] In the above embodiments, the total number of full-pitch hairpin coils in the intermediate hairpin coils of the two sub-windings is equal. Since the total number of long-pitch hairpin coils in the first and Lth layers of the two sub-windings is equal, and the total number of short-pitch hairpin coils is also equal, the total number of hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal. This ensures that the total number of hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is the same, the corresponding pitch type is the same, and the distribution of each pitch type is also the same. This makes the positions of the two sub-windings correspond in the slots, resulting in the same back EMF, resistance, and inductance of the two sub-windings, and the same current flowing through the two sub-windings. Furthermore, since the hairpin coils in the intermediate layer are all full-pitch hairpin coils, the number of pitch types of U-shaped hairpin coils used is reduced, the number of manufacturing molds is reduced, costs are lowered, and manufacturing efficiency is improved.
[0068] In the fifth embodiment of the intermediate hairpin coil of the present invention, please refer to Figure 13, L=4, the plurality of intermediate hairpin coils include: full-pitch hairpin coils, distributed in the second and third layers of the slot, the two straight segments of the full-pitch hairpin coils are respectively located in the second and third layers of the slot, and the total number of full-pitch hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal.
[0069] Specifically, taking the U phase as an example, please refer to Figure 13. 48 slots are formed at intervals on the inner periphery of the stator core 5 and extend radially along the stator core, i.e., N=48. The reference numerals 1, 2, 3...47, 48 in Figure 13 indicate the slot numbers.
[0070] Specifically, referring to Figure 13, each slot contains four conductor layers. The first winding U1 includes coil groups U11, U12, U14, and U13; the second winding U2 includes coil groups U21, U22, U24, and U23. The U-phase first sub-winding U1 lead U1+ is located on the second layer, and the neutral lead U1- is located on the first layer. The axial position of lead U1+ is opposite to the U-shaped hairpin coil connection section, and the axial position of neutral lead U1- is also opposite to the U-shaped hairpin coil connection section. Therefore, the wire output method in this embodiment eliminates the use of the I-type hairpin coil, reducing the types of wires, decreasing the number of manufacturing molds, lowering costs, and improving processing and manufacturing efficiency. The first winding U1 includes hairpin coil 121, coil 141, coil 131, coil 111, coil 122, coil 142, coil 132, coil 112, coil 123, coil 143, coil 133, coil 113, coil 124, coil 144, coil 134, and coil 114. The individual U-shaped coils are connected together in series via welding at their ends to form winding U1.
[0071] The second set of sub-windings U2 of phase U2 has its lead U2+ located on the second layer, and its neutral lead U2- located on the first layer. The second set of windings U2 includes hairpin coils 221, 241, 231, 211, 222, 242, 232, 212, 223, 243, 233, 213, 224, 244, 234, and 214. These U-shaped coils are connected together by welding their ends, forming winding U2 in series.
[0072] In the fourth and fifth embodiments of the intermediate hairpin coil of this invention, the first layer of the slot uses a short-pitch hairpin coil, the second and third layers use a full-pitch hairpin coil, and each phase occupies two adjacent slots, such as slots 7 and 8. The winding pitch factor is 1, which can output greater torque. The fourth layer uses a long-pitch hairpin coil. There are three types of U-shaped hairpin coils with short end heights, resulting in a small motor size. The number of parallel branches per phase is one or two. When there are two parallel branches, the combination of short-pitch and long-pitch hairpin coils enables switching between adjacent slots under the same rotor magnetic pole, eliminating the phase difference caused by a slot pitch, avoiding circulating current between the two branches, and preventing excessive local temperature rise. When there are two parallel branches, the number of series turns per phase is lower, which is suitable for low-voltage, high-current, and high-speed applications. When there is one parallel branch per phase, the number of series turns per phase is higher, which is suitable for high-voltage, low-current, and low-speed applications.
[0073] Furthermore, when L=4, the intermediate hairpin coil can also be a long-pitch hairpin coil and a short-pitch hairpin coil. Specifically, the intermediate hairpin coil includes a third intermediate hairpin coil, which is distributed in the second and third layers of the slot. The two straight segments of the third intermediate hairpin coil are located in the second and third layers of the slot, respectively. The total number of the third intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is equal. One of the third intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is a long-pitch hairpin coil, and the other is a short-pitch hairpin coil. The long-pitch hairpin coils and short-pitch hairpin coils distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, with the long-pitch hairpin coil wrapped around the short-pitch hairpin coil.
[0074] One of the third intermediate hairpin coils in the two sub-windings is a long-pitch hairpin coil, and the other is a short-pitch hairpin coil. The long-pitch and short-pitch hairpin coils distributed on the two sub-windings are arranged in pairs, with the long-pitch hairpin coil wrapped around the short-pitch hairpin coil. That is, in this invention, the intermediate layer uses (N-2) / 2 types of long-pitch hairpin coils and (N-2) / 2 types of short-pitch hairpin coils. In this embodiment, the intermediate layer uses one type of long-pitch hairpin coil and one type of short-pitch hairpin coil, which can further eliminate the differences between the two sub-windings and achieve identical back EMF, resistance, and inductance between the two sub-windings.
[0075] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
