Abstract

[Problem] A winding is provided which is so arranged that disengagement of a winding conductor is not caused after a winding around being finished. [Constitution] A winding according to the present invention includes a first descending conductor portion () being bent from an end-portion () of a winding conductor placed at a top portion of an elevated winding portion () toward an outer lateral side in an axial direction of a winding (), and descending along a side face of the elevated winding portion (), from the top portion thereof to a predetermined winding layer () among a plurality of winding layers constituting the elevated winding portion (); a first connection conductor portion () bent from the first descending conductor portion () toward an inner lateral side in the axial direction of the winding (), and disposed along the side face of the elevated winding portion () in a direction to which a winding conductor constituting the winding () extends; and a second descending conductor portion () being bent from the first connection conductor portion () toward the outer lateral side in the axial direction of the winding (), and descending along the side face of the elevated winding portion (), from the predetermined winding layer () to another predetermined winding layer ().
