Patent ID: 7989996

Claim:
A five-phase electrical generator ( 1 ), comprising: five electrical phase windings ( 12 ) for five different phases electrically connected at interconnection points ( 14 ); a stator ( 16 ) composed of a substantially annular stator core ( 17 ) and a stator winding ( 19 ), wherein the stator core ( 17 ) has at least one axially extending slot, wherein an electrical angle (a) at the interconnection points ( 14 ) is between 25° and 36° and wherein an electrically active winding path of a stator winding ( 19 ) and, therefore, of the five electrical phase windings ( 12 ), is closed after two electrically active convolutions in accordance with linkages of the phase windings ( 12 ), the generator ( 1 ) is connected to a rectifier ( 16 ), wherein a stator winding of the generator ( 1 ) is composed of one continuous conductor per phase, wherein its rotor ( 20 ) is a claw-pole rotor, and wherein the number of slots in the stator ( 16 ) is a multiple of ten, and the number of pole pairs is between six and eight.
