Abstract:
1. A resolver comprising: a resolver rotor rotatable about a central axis and including a non-circular outer peripheral surface; a resolver stator centered about the central axis and including an inner peripheral surface radially opposed to the outer peripheral surface of the resolver rotor with a gap provided therebetween; and a lead wire arranged to electrically connect the resolver to another device; wherein the resolver stator includes: the insulator includes an integral terminal block that is arranged to project radially outwards from the resolver stator core and includes a plurality of terminals arranged to electrically connect the lead wire and the conductive wires to each other; and each of the terminals is approximately L-shaped, and includes a conductive wire connecting portion and a lead wire connecting portion which are integral with each other, the conductive wire connecting portion axially projects from the terminal block and is arranged to be connected to a corresponding one of the conductive wires, the lead wire connecting portion is arranged on an opposite side of the terminals in the axial direction with respect to the conductive wire connecting portion and projects radially outwards from the conductive wire connecting portion, and the terminals are arranged in a direction approximately perpendicular to a projecting direction of the terminal block.
