In an image pickup system, illumination light emitted by a light emission part is collected and reflected by an optical member and is distributed to a predetermined area. This light distribution to the predetermined area permits a constituent point farther away from the light emission part to receive illumination light having a greater intensity of light being equal to or greater than a predetermined reference value. The image pickup system thus distributing the illumination light enables the intensity of light incident on each pixel constituting an image pickup predetermined area to be equal to or greater than an intensity reference value while enabling the distribution of the intensity of light incident on each pixel constituting the image pickup predetermined area to be within a first reference range.

State monitoring apparatus

A method for manufacturing a stator configured to ensure insulation properties between a conductor and an armature core while preventing a manufacturing cost from increasing and preventing a space factor from lowering. In an edge-removing step, a plurality of independent edge-removing punches, which correspond to one slot S or two or more slots S, press and chamfer a corner portion of an axial opening edge of the slot in an axial end core sheet of the armature core.

Method for manufacturing an armature core

An armature core of a stator has an annular portion and a plurality of teeth extending radially from the annular portion. A segment coil is configured by electrically connecting a plurality of segment conductors together. The segment conductors extend axially through slots S, each of which is defined between each adjacent pair of the teeth. Each of the teeth has a width adjustment portion for decreasing a slot width in a direction perpendicular to a radial direction in the radially inward direction.
