Summary of the Invention

Problem to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] However, in Patent Document 1, since the core back portion is crimped over the entire length in the lamination direction, iron loss increases in the core back portion. Further, since there is no blank hole in the crimped portion of the teeth portion, the core may be distorted after wire winding, resulting in lamination misalignment in the teeth portion.

According to this embodiment, each stator core sheet has either back yoke recesses or teeth recesses for crimping, and crimping is not performed at all back yoke recesses and teeth recesses. Furthermore, since there are no consecutive crimping connections at three or more locations in the stacking direction, the stator core sheets do not separate, iron loss can be reduced, and stacking differences between the back yoke and teeth sections are less likely to occur.

[0010] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a stator according to the first embodiment, wherein a back yoke portion is formed by arranging a plurality of divided cores, each divided into teeth portions, in a ring shape.

According to this embodiment, the correct lamination state can be maintained, iron loss can be reduced, lamination differences are less likely to occur between the arc-shaped yoke portion and the teeth portion, and the divided cores can be assembled into a ring shape in a well-fitting manner, thus reducing iron loss due to residual stress.

[0011] A third embodiment of the present invention is a stator according to the first embodiment, wherein the protrusion dimensions from the sheet surface at the back yoke and teeth are less than or equal to the sheet thickness from one sheet surface to the other.

[0017] Hereinafter, a stator, an electric motor, a compressor, and an apparatus using the compressor according to examples of the present invention will be described. The present invention is not limited by the following examples.

[0018] FIG. 1 is a configuration diagram of a compressor using the electric motor according to the present embodiment, and an apparatus using this compressor. The compressor 10 according to the present embodiment is a rotary compressor. A hermetic container 1 is connected with a suction pipe 2 for sucking refrigerant and a discharge pipe 3 for discharging refrigerant. Inside the hermetic container 1, a compression mechanism unit 13 that compresses the refrigerant sucked from the suction pipe 2, and an electric motor 14 that drives the compression mechanism unit 13 are disposed. A bottom portion in the hermetic container 1 serves as an oil storage unit 11. The compression mechanism unit 13 is composed of a cylinder 13a, a piston 13b, a vane (not shown), a main bearing 13c, and a sub bearing 13d. The main bearing 13c is fixed to the hermetic container 1. The piston 13b is rotatably fitted to an eccentric portion 4a of a rotating shaft 4 penetrating the inside of the cylinder 13a. The vane reciprocates in a vane groove while following the piston 13b rolling along the inner wall surface of the cylinder 13a. The main bearing 13c and the sub bearing 13d seal the upper end surface and the lower end surface of the cylinder 13a, and support the rotating shaft 4.

[0019] The electric motor 14 includes a stator 30 fixed to the hermetic container 1, and a rotor 20 disposed on the inner periphery of the stator 30. The rotor 20 is fixed to the rotating shaft 4, and the stator 30 is fixed to the hermetic container 1. The rotor 20 is disposed with the stator 30 via an air gap. The rotor 20 has a rotor core formed into a cylindrical shape by laminating rotor core sheets, and permanent magnets disposed in slits formed in the outer peripheral portion of the rotor core. The rotor 20 has a plurality of permanent magnets arranged centered on the rotating shaft 4. The rotor core is made of a magnetic material. The refrigerant is sucked into the compression mechanism unit 13 from the suction pipe 2, and compressed by the compression mechanism unit 13. Thereafter, the refrigerant passes through the electric motor 14 and is discharged from the discharge pipe 3.

[0020] The apparatus according to the present embodiment has the compressor 10, a condenser 17, a pressure reducing device 18, and an evaporator 19 annularly connected by piping. The condenser 17 condenses the refrigerant discharged from the discharge pipe 3, the pressure reducing device 18 reduces the pressure of the refrigerant condensed by the condenser 17, and the evaporator 19 evaporates the refrigerant depressurized by the pressure reducing device 18. The refrigerant evaporated in the evaporator 19 is returned to the compressor 10 via the accumulator 16.

[0021] Figure 2 shows a stator according to this embodiment, with Figure 2(a) being a plan view of the stator and Figure 2(b) being a perspective view of the stator. In this embodiment, a stator 30 with a divided core 30A is shown. The stator 30 is constructed by stacking multiple stator core sheets 30S, each having an annular back yoke portion 31 and a plurality of teeth portions 32 formed radially inward from the back yoke portion 31. The stator 30 is constructed by stacking stator core sheets 30S in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 4. The stator core sheets 30S are electromagnetic steel sheets with a thickness of approximately 0.3 mm, and the stator 30 is made of a magnetic material. Slots 34 are formed between adjacent teeth 32. A winding (not shown) is wound around each tooth 32. Each stator core sheet 30S has at least one back yoke recessed hole 31xy and at least one tooth recessed hole 32xy. The back yoke recessed holes 31xy are formed in the back yoke portion 31, and the teeth recessed holes 32xy are formed in the teeth portion 32.

[0022] In this embodiment, the stator 30 is constructed by arranging multiple divided cores 30A, each divided into several parts for each tooth portion 32, in a ring shape. The back yoke portion 31 is formed by arranging these multiple divided cores 30A, each divided into several parts for each tooth portion 32, in a ring shape. The divided core 30A is constructed by stacking divided stator core sheets 30AS, each having an arc-shaped yoke portion 31A centered on the rotation axis 4 of the rotor 20, a tooth portion 32 extending from the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A toward the rotor 20, and an umbrella portion 33 formed at the tip of the tooth portion 32. A groove 35 is formed on the back yoke surface of the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A. The umbrella portion 33 is formed to protrude on both sides beyond the circumferential width of the teeth portion 32. The groove 35 is formed on the extension of the center line of the teeth portion 32 and is formed symmetrically with respect to the center line of the teeth portion 32.

[0023] Each segmented stator core sheet 30AS has at least one back yoke recessed hole 31xy and at least one tooth recessed hole 32xy. The back yoke recessed holes 31xy are formed in the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A, and the teeth recessed holes 32xy are formed in the teeth portion 32. In this embodiment, two back yoke recessed holes 31xy and one tooth recessed hole 32xy are formed. The two back yoke recessed holes 31xy are formed symmetrically with respect to the center line of the tooth portion 32.

[0024] Figure 3 shows the stacking state of a portion of the divided stator core sheets shown in Figure 2. Figure 3(a) is a perspective view showing the stacking state of the divided stator core sheets at an arbitrary position. Figure 3(b) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of one back yoke. Figure 3(c) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of the other back yoke. Figure 3(d) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of the teeth. Figure 3(e) is an exploded perspective view of the divided stator core sheet shown in Figure 3(a). Each segmented stator core sheet 30AS has two back yoke recessed holes 31xy formed in the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A and one tooth recessed hole 32xy formed in the tooth portion 32.

[0025] As shown in Figures 3(b) and 3(c), the back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy is either a back yoke recessed portion 31x where one sheet surface is recessed and protrudes from the other sheet surface, or a back yoke hole portion 31y that penetrates from one sheet surface to the other sheet surface. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 3(d), the toothed recessed and recessed portion 32xy is either a toothed recessed portion 32x that protrudes from the other sheet surface as a recess on one sheet surface, or a toothed hole portion 32y that penetrates from one sheet surface to the other sheet surface.

[0026] As shown in Figure 3(e), the seven divided stator core sheets 30AS at any stacking position are, respectively, the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn, the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2, the N+3rd stator core sheet 30Sn+3, the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4, the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5, and the N+6th If we consider the stator core sheet to be 30Sn+6, then the following are stacked in order: the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn, the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2, the N+3rd stator core sheet 30Sn+3, the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4, the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5, and the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6.

[0027] The Nth stator core sheet 30Sn has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy as the back yoke recessed portion 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is crimped and joined to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn are crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1. However, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is not crimped to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1.

[0028] The N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2. Furthermore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2. However, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1 are not crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2.

[0029] The N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed portion 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 are crimped and joined to the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3.

[0030] The N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed portion 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, one of the back yoke recessed holes 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 are crimped and joined to the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4. However, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 is not crimped to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4.

[0031] The N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5. Furthermore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5. However, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 are not crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5.

[0032] The N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed portion 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 are crimped and joined to the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6.

[0033] In this way, each adjacent segmented stator core sheet 30AS is crimped and joined to other back yoke recessed holes 31xy adjacent to each other in the stacking direction at the same position in a plan view by the protrusion of the back yoke recessed portion 31x, or crimped and joined to other teeth recessed holes 32xy adjacent to each other in the stacking direction at the same position in a plan view by the protrusion of the teeth recessed portion 32x. Furthermore, in a single segmented stator core sheet 30AS, at least one of the two back yoke recessed holes 31xy and teeth recessed holes 32xy on the single segmented stator core sheet 30AS is either a back yoke hole 31y or a teeth recessed hole 32xy, so that not all of the back yoke recessed holes 31xy and teeth recessed holes 32xy on the single segmented stator core sheet 30AS are crimped together.

[0034] Furthermore, if the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is the back yoke uneven portion 31x, the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1 can be made into the back yoke uneven portion 31x or the back yoke hole portion 31y. If the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is the back yoke uneven portion 31x and the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is the back yoke uneven portion 31x, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2 can be made into the back yoke hole portion 31y. In this way, in a plan view, the stator core sheets can be crimped at two consecutive locations or at one location in the stacking direction at the same position on the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A, and not at three or more locations, allowing the divided stator core sheets 30AS to be stacked.

[0035] Furthermore, if the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is a toothed protrusion 32x, the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1 can be made into a toothed protrusion 32x or a toothed hole 32y. If the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is a toothed protrusion 32x and the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is a toothed protrusion 32x, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2 can be made into a toothed hole 32y. In this way, in a plan view, the divided stator core sheets 30AS can be laminated with crimping at two consecutive locations or one location in the stacking direction at the same position on the toothed portion 32, without crimping at three or more consecutive locations.

[0036] As described above, according to this embodiment, each divided stator core sheet 30AS has either a back yoke recessed portion 31x or a teeth recessed portion 32x for crimping, and is not crimped at all points. Furthermore, since there are no more than three continuous crimping points in the stacking direction, the divided stator core sheet 30AS does not separate, maintaining the correct stacked state, reducing iron loss, preventing stacking differences between the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A and the teeth portion 32, and allowing the divided cores 30A to be assembled into a ring shape with good fit, thus reducing iron loss due to residual stress.

[0037] Figure 4 shows the stacking state of a portion of the divided stator core sheets, different from that shown in Figure 3. Figure 4(a) is a perspective view showing the stacking state of the divided stator core sheets at an arbitrary position. Figure 4(b) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of one back yoke. Figure 4(c) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of the other back yoke. Figure 4(d) is a cross-sectional view of the main part showing the uneven holes of the teeth. Figure 4(e) is an exploded perspective view of the divided stator core sheet shown in Figure 4(a). Each segmented stator core sheet 30AS has two back yoke recessed holes 31xy formed in the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A and one tooth recessed hole 32xy formed in the tooth portion 32.

[0038] As shown in Figures 4(b) and 4(c), the back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy is either a back yoke recessed portion 31x where one sheet surface is recessed and protrudes from the other sheet surface, or a back yoke hole portion 31y that penetrates from one sheet surface to the other sheet surface. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4(d), the toothed recessed and recessed portion 32xy is either a toothed recessed portion 32x that protrudes from the other sheet surface as one sheet surface is recessed, or a toothed hole portion 32y that penetrates from one sheet surface to the other sheet surface.

[0039] As shown in Figure 4(e), the seven divided stator core sheets 30AS at any stacking position are, respectively, the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn, the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2, the N+3rd stator core sheet 30Sn+3, the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4, the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5, and the N+6th If we consider the stator core sheet to be 30Sn+6, then the following are stacked in order: the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn, the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1, the N+2nd stator core sheet 30Sn+2, the N+3rd stator core sheet 30Sn+3, the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4, the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5, and the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6.

[0040] The Nth stator core sheet 30Sn has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is crimped and joined to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1. However, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is not crimped to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn are not crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1.

[0041] The N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2. Furthermore, the teeth-shaped holes 32xy in the N+1 stator core sheet 30Sn+1 are not crimped together with the teeth-shaped holes 32xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2.

[0042] The N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, the tooth-shaped holes 32xy in the N+2th stator core sheet 30Sn+2 are crimped and joined to the tooth-shaped holes 32xy in the N+3rd stator core sheet 30Sn+3. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3. Furthermore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+2 stator core sheet 30Sn+2 is not crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3.

[0043] The N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, one of the back yoke recessed holes 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4. However, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 is not crimped to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+3 stator core sheet 30Sn+3 are not crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+4 stator core sheet 30Sn+4.

[0044] The N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke recessed hole 31x, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth hole 32y. Therefore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 is crimped and joined to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5. Furthermore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+4th stator core sheet 30Sn+4 are not crimped together with the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5.

[0045] The N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 has one back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, the other back yoke recessed hole 31xy designated as the back yoke hole 31y, and the teeth recessed hole 32xy designated as the teeth recessed portion 32x. Therefore, the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 are crimped and joined to the tooth-shaped grooves 32xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6. However, one of the back yoke grooves 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 is not crimped to the other back yoke groove 31xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6. Furthermore, the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+5th stator core sheet 30Sn+5 is not crimped to the other back yoke recessed hole portion 31xy in the N+6th stator core sheet 30Sn+6.

[0046] In this way, each adjacent segmented stator core sheet 30AS is crimped and joined to other back yoke recessed holes 31xy adjacent to each other in the stacking direction at the same position in a plan view by the protrusion of the back yoke recessed portion 31x, or crimped and joined to other teeth recessed holes 32xy adjacent to each other in the stacking direction at the same position in a plan view by the protrusion of the teeth recessed portion 32x. In a single segmented stator core sheet 30AS, at least one of the two back yoke recessed holes 31xy and teeth recessed holes 32xy on the segmented stator core sheet 30AS is designated as either the back yoke recessed hole 31x or the teeth recessed hole 32x, while the other is designated as either the back yoke hole 31y or the teeth recessed hole 32xy. Therefore, there is only one crimp joint for a single segmented stator core sheet 30AS, and not all of the back yoke recessed holes 31xy and teeth recessed holes 32xy on a single segmented stator core sheet 30AS are crimped.

[0047] Furthermore, if the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is the back yoke recessed portion 31x, then by making the N+1st stator core sheet 30Sn+1 the back yoke hole portion 31y, the sheets are crimped together at one location in the stacking direction at the same position in the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A in a plan view, and are not crimped together at two or more consecutive locations, thus allowing the divided stator core sheets 30AS to be stacked.

[0048] Furthermore, if the Nth stator core sheet 30Sn is a toothed recessed portion 32x, the N+1th stator core sheet 30Sn+1 can be made into a toothed hole portion 32y. In a plan view, the divided stator core sheets 30AS can be laminated with crimping at only one location in the stacking direction at the same position on the toothed portion 32, without being crimped at two or more consecutive locations.

[0049] As described above, according to this embodiment, each divided stator core sheet 30AS has either a back yoke recessed portion 31x or a teeth recessed portion 32x for crimping, and is not crimped at all points. Furthermore, since there are no more than three continuous crimping points in the stacking direction, the divided stator core sheet 30AS does not separate, maintaining the correct stacked state, reducing iron loss, preventing stacking differences between the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A and the teeth portion 32, and allowing the divided cores 30A to be assembled into a ring shape with good fit, thus reducing iron loss due to residual stress.

[0050] As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the protrusion dimensions from the sheet surface of the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x are set to be less than or equal to the sheet thickness from one sheet surface to the other. By setting the protrusion dimensions from the sheet surface of the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x to be less than or equal to the sheet thickness from one sheet surface to the other, it is less likely for a difference in lamination to occur between the arc-shaped yoke portion 31A (or back yoke portion 31) and the teeth portion 32. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, the protruding shape from the sheet surface of the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x is preferably V-shaped in side view, but it can also be a flat-bottomed shape. By making the protruding shape from the sheet surface of the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x V-shaped or flat-bottomed in side view, manufacturing is made easier and crimping can be made more reliable. Furthermore, as shown in Figures 3 and 4, it is preferable that the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x be rectangular in plan view, but they can also be circular. By making the back yoke recessed portion 31x and the teeth recessed portion 32x circular or rectangular in plan view, manufacturing is made easier and crimping can be performed reliably.

[0051] Figure 5 shows a compressor and a configuration diagram of a refrigeration system using a scroll compressor, illustrating another embodiment of the compressor. The stator 30 described in Figures 2 to 4 can also be applied to the scroll compressor shown in Figure 5. The compressor 10 in this embodiment includes a compression mechanism 13 for compressing the refrigerant and an electric motor 14 for driving the compression mechanism 13, all located within a sealed container 1. The sealed container 1 is divided into one internal space and the other internal space by a compression mechanism 13. An electric motor 14 is placed in the other internal space. Furthermore, the other container space is divided by the electric motor 14 into a compression mechanism side space and an oil storage side space. The oil storage section 11 is located in the oil storage side space. A suction pipe 2 and a discharge pipe 3 are fixed to the sealed container 1 by welding. The suction pipe 2 and the discharge pipe 3 are connected to the outside of the sealed container 1 and to components that make up the refrigeration cycle. The suction pipe 2 introduces refrigerant from the outside of the sealed container 1, and the discharge pipe 3 leads the refrigerant out from one of the container's internal spaces to the outside of the sealed container 1.

[0052] The main bearing member 7a is fixed inside the sealed container 1 by welding or shrink fitting and supports the rotating shaft 4. The rotating shaft 4 is supported at one end by the main bearing member 7a and at the other end by the bearing 7b. A fixed scroll 13j is bolted to the main bearing member 7a. The orbiting scroll 13k that meshes with the fixed scroll 13j is sandwiched between the main bearing member 7a and the fixed scroll 13j. The fixed scroll 13j and the orbiting scroll 13k constitute a scroll-type compression mechanism 13. A rotational restraint mechanism 9, such as an Oldham ring, is provided between the orbiting scroll 13k and the main bearing member 7a. The rotational restraint mechanism 9 prevents the orbiting scroll 13k from rotating and guides it to move in a circular orbit. The orbiting scroll 13k is eccentrically driven by an eccentric portion 4a provided at the upper end of the rotating shaft 4. Due to this eccentric drive, the compression chamber formed between the fixed scroll 13j and the orbiting scroll 13k moves from the outer circumference of the compression mechanism 13 towards the center, reducing its volume and performing compression.

[0053] The electric motor 14 has a rotor 20 that is rotatably arranged around the rotating shaft 4, and a stator 30 that is arranged with respect to the rotor 20 via an air gap. The configuration of the stator 30 is the same as that shown in Figures 2 to 4, so its explanation is omitted.

[0054] The refrigerant is drawn in from the suction pipe 2 to the compression mechanism 13 and compressed in the compression mechanism 13. The refrigerant is then discharged from the discharge pipe 3. In this embodiment, the refrigeration system comprises a compressor 10, a condenser 17, a pressure reducing device 18, and an evaporator 19, all connected in a ring shape by piping. The condenser 17 condenses the refrigerant discharged from the discharge pipe 3, the pressure reducing device 18 reduces the pressure of the refrigerant condensed in the condenser 17, and the evaporator 19 evaporates the refrigerant reduced in pressure by the pressure reducing device 18. The refrigerant evaporated in the evaporator 19 is returned to the compressor 10 through the suction pipe 2.

[0055] The electric motor 14 according to this embodiment is suitable for a compressor 10 that connects a compression mechanism 13 to a rotating shaft 4 and compresses a refrigerant using the compression mechanism 13. In this embodiment, a vertical compressor 10 was used for the explanation, but a horizontal compressor 10 would have similar effects and is suitable for, for example, vehicle-mounted compressors. Also, while Figure 1 shows a rotary compressor and Figure 11 shows a scroll compressor, a reciprocating compressor or other types of compressors may also be used. Furthermore, in a refrigeration system having a compressor 10 using the electric motor 14 according to this embodiment, connected in a ring shape by piping together with a condenser 17, a pressure reducing device 18, and an evaporator 19, high efficiency can be achieved without reducing torque.

[0056] As described above, the compressor 10 according to this embodiment has a compression mechanism 13 connected to the rotating shaft 4, and the refrigerant is compressed by the compression mechanism 13, thus providing a compressor 10 with high motor efficiency. Furthermore, R32 and R410A can be used as refrigerants, and natural refrigerants such as R290 and CO2 can also be used. [Industrial applicability]

[0057] The compressor of the present invention is useful in equipment such as hot water heating systems, indoor air conditioning systems, vehicle-mounted air conditioning systems, water heaters, refrigerators, display cases, chillers, or refrigeration units. [Explanation of Symbols]
