Patent ID: 7026735

Claim:
A stator of a rotating electric machine, said stator comprising: a stator core including a laminated core assembly of laminated thin steel plates having a cylindrical form, the stator core having multiple slots therein at intervals along a circumferential direction of the stator core; multiple pairs of coils, each coil pair including two elongate conductors which are folded back, outside axial end surfaces of the stator core, and fitted into the slots in such a way that the two conductors of each coil pair are disposed alternately in inner and outer layers in a slot depth direction at intervals of a fixed number of slots; and multiple leads extending from the stator core for connecting the multiple coil pairs to an external electric circuit, wherein the multiple leads are arranged in at least one group and the leads of the each group extend from slots which are located adjacent to one another along the circumferential direction of the stator core.
