Claim 4:
5. A method of manufacturing an electric machine comprising:
providing a stator having a stator yoke longitudinally extending along a longitudinal axis of the stator, a plurality of teeth protruding according to a radial direction orthogonal to the longitudinal axis from the stator yoke to respective radial tooth ends and a plurality of slots extending radially from the stator yoke to respective radial slot ends, the plurality of slots being circumferentially interposed between the teeth of the stator, each slot including a bottom portion adjacent to the stator yoke and a top portion adjacent to the respective radial slot end,
providing a plurality of coils housed in the plurality of slots, each slot housing at least one coil in the bottom portion and at least another coil in the top portion,
connecting each coil housed in the bottom portion of a first slot of the plurality of slots to another respective coil housed in the top portion of a second slot of the plurality of slots,
wherein the second slot of the plurality of slots is adjacent to the first slot, the first slot and the second slot being separated by one interposed tooth of the plurality of teeth, and the coils are connected such that the coil in the bottom portion which is more distanced from the interposed tooth is respectively connected to the coil in the top portion which is adjacent to the interposed tooth and that the coil in the bottom portion which is adjacent to the interposed tooth is respectively connected to the coil in the top portion which is more remote from the interposed tooth.
