A motor includes a rotor including a shaft extending along a central axis, a stator including a coil and opposing the rotor in a radial direction with a gap, and a busbar positioned at one axial-directional side of the stator. The busbar includes a conducting wire-connecting portion connected to a conducting wire extending from the coil. A notch into which the conducting wire is inserted is provided in the conducting wire connecting portion. An inner circumferential surface of the notch includes a bottom surface opposing an opening side of the notch, a first opposed surface extending from the bottom surface towards the opening, and a second opposed surface extending from the bottom surface towards the opening and opposing the first opposed surface.

Motor and method of manufacturing motor

A motor includes a rotor including a shaft extending along a center axis in a lengthwise direction, the rotor being rotatable about the center axis, a stator opposite the rotor with a clearance between the stator and the rotor in a radial direction, and a housing accommodating the rotor and the stator. The housing includes a tubular portion extending along the center axis, and a bottom portion closing a lower opening of the tubular portion. The tubular portion includes, on its inner peripheral surface, a fitting portion fitted to the stator, and a tapered portion with a diameter gradually decreasing downward and located below the fitting portion. The tubular portion includes, in its outer peripheral surface, a recessed portion with an axial position overlapping the tapered portion and extending in a circumferential direction.

Motor

A motor includes a rotor with a shaft disposed along a central axis, a stator including coils and facing the rotor via a gap in a radial direction, bus-bars electrically connected to the stator, and bus-bar holders on one side in the axial direction of the stator that are distinct members separated from each other. The coils define coil groups having power systems different from each other. Each of the bus-bar holders holds at least one of the bus-bars different from each other. In each of the bus-bar holders, at least one of the bus-bars held on the bus-bar holder includes a connection terminal electrically connected to an electrical component.

A busbar apparatus includes a busbar to be connected to an external device, and a holder to hold the busbar and made of an insulating material. The busbar includes a terminal portion to be connected to the external device, an intermediate portion continuous with the terminal portion, and a connection portion continuous with the intermediate portion. The intermediate portion includes an edge portion including portions extending along a first axis. The terminal portion extends from the edge portion. The connection portion extends from the edge portion away from the terminal portion. The terminal portion has a thickness direction extending along a second axis not parallel to the first axis. The connection portion has a thickness direction not parallel to the second axis.

Busbar apparatus, motor, and method of manufacturing busbar apparatus

A motor includes a rotating shaft extending along a central axis, a stator core arranged about the rotating shaft by being centered on the central axis, a housing arranged about the stator core in a circumferential direction and including an opening on one side in an axial direction, and a support covering the opening. A functional component is mounted on at least one side of the support in the axial direction. The motor further includes a fastener disposed in the axial direction to secure the support, the stator core, and the housing.

Motor and electrical product

In a motor, busbars each includes a grasping portion to grasp a conducting wire extending from a coil. A pair of arm portions in each of the grasping portions extend from a base portion to a same side in a circumferential direction. A busbar holder includes a busbar holder body, and a cylindrical first central tubular portion centered on a central axis, projecting to a second axial side from the busbar holder body. A bearing holder includes a first central hole portion centered on the central axis, and extending through the bearing holder in an axial direction. The first central tubular portion is fitted in the first central hole portion. One of the bearing holder and the busbar holder includes a hole portion recessed in the axial direction. Another one of the bearing holder and the busbar holder includes a fitting projection portion projecting in the axial direction. The fitting projection portion is fitted in the hole portion. An axial dimension of a portion of the first central tubular portion fitted in the first central hole portion is greater than an axial dimension of a portion of the fitting projection portion fitted in the hole portion.

A motor includes a first bus bar including a first extension, a second extension, and a first bus bar body including a first corner to which the first extension and the second extension are connected. A holder includes a support to support the first bus bar body, a pair of first walls, and a pair of second walls. The pair of first walls include wall surfaces that face each other in the first perpendicular direction and are spaced by a gap from each other, and extend in the first direction. The pair of second walls include wall surfaces that face each other in the second perpendicular direction and are spaced by a gap from each other, and extend in the second direction. A first space is provided between the pair of first walls and the pair of second walls. The first corner is provided in the first space.
