Patent ID: 8508086

Claim:
A cooling structure of a rotating electrical machine, comprising: a rotating electrical machine that includes a stator, the stator having plural split cores annularly combined, and a fastening member mounted to the outer periphery of the plural split cores for integrating the plural split cores, and a case that accommodates the rotating electrical machine therein, wherein the fastening member includes a cylindrical portion, and a flange portion that is provided to all over circumference at one end of the cylindrical portion in an axial direction and that extends outward in a radial direction from the cylindrical portion, the case includes an accommodating portion which has an inner peripheral wall whose inner diameter is larger than the outer diameter of the cylindrical portion and smaller than the outer diameter of the flange portion, and in which the stator is accommodated such that the inner peripheral wall and an outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion oppose to each other, a first wall face extending outward in the radial direction from the end of the inner peripheral wall where the flange portion is arranged, the flange portion being mounted to the first wall face, and a second wall face extending inward in the radial direction from the end of the inner peripheral wall where the other end of the cylindrical portion in the axial direction is arranged, the other end of the cylindrical portion being in contact with the second wall face, and a cooling jacket is formed by the inner peripheral wall of the accommodating portion, the outer peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion, the flange portion, and the second wall face, between the case and the stator, and a cooling liquid is fed to the cooling jacket.
