Abstract:
1. A motor comprising: a rotor capable of rotating about a specific rotary central axis, the rotor including one axial end portion as a load side end portion to be connected to a mechanical load; a stator including a stator core disposed around the rotor and a coil supported by the stator core, the stator to form a magnetic field that applies a rotary force to the rotor when the coil is energized; a stator frame having an opening on an opposite side to the load side end portion of the rotor, the opening directed parallel to the axial direction of the rotor, the stator frame accommodating the stator and holding the stator core; an end cover attached to the stator frame so as to close the opening in the stator frame; a first bearing and a second bearing that are held by the stator frame and the end cover, respectively, to rotatably support the rotor in respective axially different positions; and a heat radiating resin disposed so as to transfer heat generated in the coil to the stator frame to advance heat radiation, wherein: the coil of the stator includes a first end portion projecting beyond the stator core toward the load side end portion in the axial direction of the rotor and a second end portion projecting beyond the stator core in a direction opposite to the first end portion in the axial direction of the rotor; the stator frame includes a peripheral wall surrounding the stator with a radial gap between the peripheral wall and respective outer surfaces of the first and second end portions of the coil, and an end wall located on an opposite side to the opening in the stator frame and integrally connected to the peripheral wall, the end wall including a central part projecting inwardly in the axial direction of the rotor beyond a peripheral part thereof to form a first boss portion that holds the first bearing; the end cover includes a central part projecting inward in the axial direction of the rotor beyond a peripheral part thereof to form a second boss portion that holds the second bearing; the stator is disposed in the stator frame such that the first end portion of the coil is interposed between the first boss portion and the peripheral wall of the stator frame and the second end portion is interposed between the second boss portion and the peripheral wall of the stator frame; and the heat radiating resin includes a first resin part covering a surface of the first end portion of the coil and making close contact with an inner surface of the stator frame and a second resin part covering a surface of the second end portion of the coil and separating from an outer peripheral surface of the second boss portion of the end cover, the first resin part including an inner-side interposed portion interposed between an inner surface of the first end portion of the coil and an outer peripheral surface of the first boss portion, the heat radiating resin having such a shape that the inner-side interposed portion has a thickness greater than a thickness of other portion than the inner-side interposed portion in the heat radiating resin.
