Abstract:
An automotive electric power supply assembly comprising:a rotor provided with a field winding, said rotor forming a rotating magnetic field when a magnetizing electric current is supplied to said field winding; a stator provided with at least one three-phase alternating-current winding constructed by forming three winding phase portions into a Y-connection, said stator being disposed so as to envelop said rotor and to generate an output when said rotating magnetic field is applied thereto; and a voltage regulating means for adjusting said output from said stator by controlling said magnetizing electric current supplied to said field winding, wherein each of said winding phase portions constituting said three-phase alternating-current winding is divided into a plurality of winding divisions, and outputs from said winding divisions are simultaneously extracted independently and supplied to different electrical loads.
