Abstract:
1. A stator core of a rotating electrical machine, comprising: an annular first core plate including a plurality of first core plate pieces, each of which is an arc-shaped member and has a stator fixing portion that is fixed to a stator holding member and protrudes from an outer circumference of the arc-shaped member at a position closer to a first side than to a midpoint of the outer circumference in a circumferential direction, the plurality of first core plate pieces being disposed in the circumferential direction to form the annular shape of the first core plate; and an annular second core plate including a plurality of second core plate pieces, each of which is an arc-shaped member and has a stator fixing portion that is fixed to the stator holding member and protrudes from an outer circumference of the arc-shaped member at a position closer to a second side than to a midpoint of the outer circumference in the circumferential direction, the plurality of second core plate pieces being disposed in the circumferential direction to form the annular shape of the second core plate, wherein a predetermined number of the first and second core plates are alternately laminated such that the stator fixing portions overlap with each other and such that positions of joints between the first core plate pieces of the first core plates differ from positions of joints between the second core plate pieces of the second core plates in the circumferential direction, the first and second core plates are structured by joining the plurality of first and second core plate pieces, respectively, at joint surfaces at both ends thereof in the circumferential direction, the stator fixing portion of each of the first core plate pieces is formed on the outer circumference entirely on an opposite side of a parallel line from a perpendicular line orthogonal to a tangent at the midpoint and passing through the midpoint, the outer circumference of each of the first core plate pieces being a continuous surface absent of a stator fixing portion on a perpendicular line side of the parallel line, the parallel line being parallel to the perpendicular line and passing through a corner of the joint surface on an inner circumferential side of the first core plate piece, the corner being a tip end of a stator tooth, and the stator fixing portion of each of the second core plate pieces is formed on the outer circumference entirely on an opposite side of a parallel line from a perpendicular line orthogonal to a tangent at the midpoint and passing through the midpoint, the outer circumference of each of the second core plate pieces being a continuous surface absent of a stator fixing portion on a perpendicular line side of the parallel line, the parallel line being parallel to the perpendicular line and passing through a corner of the joint surface on an inner circumferential side of the second core plate piece, the corner being a tip end of a stator tooth.
