Solution Overview

Problem

Existing technologies for lead wire layout in claw pole-type rotary electrical devices result in a short distance between the lead wire and the rotor, increasing the risk of contact and potential damage.

Innovation Solution

The lead wire is drawn out through a second through-hole in the core, allowing for a more appropriate layout, and multiple stator units can be stacked with connected through-holes, with a pipe member fitted to guide the wire, and the core design includes yoke portions and claw magnetic poles arranged to prevent contact.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Ease of manufacture

If the lead wire is passed from a gap between the claw magnetic poles of the stator core to the outside in the axial direction, then the lead wire layout is simplified, but the distance between the lead wire and the rotor becomes short, increasing the risk of contact

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvelead wire layoutVSAvoidrisk of lead wire contact with rotor
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces a through-hole penetrating the stator core in the radial direction, changing the lead wire extraction path from axial to radial dimension. This dimensional shift allows the lead wire to exit the stator core at a location far from the rotor, eliminating contact risk while maintaining layout simplicity

Inventive Principle:
Principle #17Another dimension (Dimensionality change)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent extracts the lead wire from the problematic axial path near the rotor and redirects it through a radially extending through-hole. This extraction removes the lead wire from the hazardous zone between the stator core and rotor, preventing contact while preserving manufacturing ease

Inventive Principle:
Principle #2Taking out (Extraction)
