Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings for understanding of the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 7, the method for manufacturing a split core piece according to the first embodiment of the present invention is used by laminating an annular stator core 10 on a split laminated core 11 divided into a plurality of parts in the circumferential direction. The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a split core piece 12 to be manufactured. As shown in FIG. 3A, the divided core piece 12 has a divided yoke piece portion 13 which is an example of a wide portion on the radially outer side and a magnetic pole tooth piece portion which is an example of a narrow portion on the radially inner side. 14 is formed, and a magnetic pole shaft piece portion 15 is formed between the divided yoke piece portion 13 and the magnetic pole tooth piece portion 14.

In this case, even in this case, the split yoke piece 19 which is an example of the wide portion is formed radially outward, and the magnetic pole piece 20 (narrow width) is formed radially inside. 1) is formed, and strictly speaking, the radially inner side of the magnetic pole piece portion 20 functions as the magnetic pole tooth piece portion. The divided yoke piece 19 and the magnetic pole piece 20 are clearly separated by a step 20a. In FIGS. 3A and 3B, reference numeral 21 denotes a caulking portion.

In the divided core piece 12 shown in FIG. 3 (A), the semicircular cutout 29a used for the small hole 29 (see FIG. 1) for cutter escape is formed on both side ends 22 of the divided yoke piece 13. Further, a ¼ circle notch 29b used for a small hole 29 for blade escape is formed at both side end portions 22a (both side corner portions 23) of the magnetic pole tooth piece portion 14.
Further, in the divided core piece 12a shown in FIG. 3 (B), the semicircular cutouts 29a used for the small tool escape holes 29 are formed on both side end portions 22b of the divided yoke piece portion 19, so that the pole pieces 1/4 square notches 29c used for the small holes 29 for cutter escape are formed on both side corners of the portion 20. Then, a notch 29d for cutter escape constituting a part of the punch hole 25a is formed at both end portions 22c of the magnetic pole piece portion 20 of the divided core piece 12a.

3A is cut with respect to the strip 16 made of a wide magnetic material, which will be described with reference to FIG.
The center line m in the radial direction of each divided core piece 12 is parallel to the strip 16, and the side end portion 22 of the divided yoke piece portion (that is, the wide portion) 13 (to be precise, the central portion excluding both end portions) ), The divided core piece 12 adjacent to the side end portion 22 of the divided yoke piece 13 is positioned so that the side corner 23 of the magnetic pole tooth piece portion (that is, the narrow width portion) 14 of the adjacent divided core piece 12 is positioned. The core piece group 24 in which a plurality of (four in this embodiment) adjacent four divided core pieces 12 are alternately arranged with the side end portion 22a of the magnetic pole tooth piece portion 14 in contact with the strip 16 is widened. Take a plate along the direction (plate taking process). Thereby, when a grain-oriented magnetic steel plate is used for the strip 16, the magnetic characteristics of the iron core are improved.

In this case, since a rectangular hole 25 formed by the notch 17 facing each other is formed at the center position in the radial direction of the adjacent divided core pieces 12, the position of the notch 17 of the adjacent divided core pieces 12 is determined. It is preferable to determine the positions of the adjacent divided core pieces 12 so as to match, but this is the case where the positions of the notches 17 facing each other in the adjacent divided core pieces 12 are shifted in the radial direction of each divided core piece 12. May be.

In this embodiment, the divided core pieces 12 at the end of the plate are also plated so that the square punch holes 25 are formed.
Moreover, it is good for the core piece group 24 arrange | positioned in the longitudinal direction (feeding direction) of the strip 16 to have a slight clearance (1-3 mm). If the iron core piece group 24 is brought into contact with the plate to make a plate, it is difficult to perform press working.

Next, the divided core pieces 12a used in the method for manufacturing the divided core pieces according to the second embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 3B are cut off from the strip 16 made of a wide magnetic material. This will be described with reference to FIG.
The center line m in the radial direction of each divided core piece 12a is parallel to the strip 16, and the side end portion 22b of the divided yoke piece portion (that is, the wide portion) 19 (precisely, the central portion excluding both end portions) ) So that the side corner portion 23a of the radially inner portion (that is, the narrow portion) of the side end portion 22c of the magnetic pole piece portion (that is, the narrow portion) 20 of the adjacent divided core piece 12a is positioned. A group of core pieces 24a in which the four divided core pieces 12a are alternately shifted in the direction of the center line m is cut off in the strip 16 along the width direction.

In the manufacturing method of the split core pieces according to the embodiment, the split core pieces 12 and 12a are alternately shifted with respect to the center line direction (strip material transport direction). As shown in the method for manufacturing a split core piece according to the third embodiment, each split core piece 12b may be cut off with its corners 23b aligned in the direction of the center line m. In addition, about the component same as the division | segmentation iron core piece 12a shown in FIG. 5, the same number is attached | subjected and detailed description is abbreviate | omitted. In this case, the split iron core piece 12b is used as a small hole 29 for cutter escape at the corners 23b which are both side corners of the side end part 22b of the split yoke piece part 19 and both side corners of the magnetic pole piece part 20. A / 4 circle notch 29e is formed. Further, in the third embodiment shown in FIG. 6, since there is a possibility that a stacking fault may occur due to the deviation or inclination of the divided core pieces in the die during outline extraction and stacking, a protrusion is provided on the die and the small hole 29 is provided. It is also possible to position the divided core pieces within the die by abutting or forming a recess or a dovetail groove on the outer peripheral side of the divided yoke piece and engaging the protrusion of the die here.

A punch hole 25a is formed at a radial intermediate position between the adjacent divided core pieces 12a and 12b, and a cutter is provided at a portion where the outer line of the punch hole 25a intersects the side end portion 22c of the magnetic pole piece portion 20. A notch 29d for relief is formed in advance. As a result, even if the cutting line formed by the blade that forms the punch hole 25a and the cutting line formed by cutting the outer shape of the magnetic pole piece 20 are connected in a straight line, the cutout 29d is identical with another blade. Cutting of the location can be avoided. In the split core pieces 12b shown in FIG. 6, the positions of the wide end side ends 22b and the narrow end side ends 22c of the adjacent split core pieces 12b coincide with each other in the radial direction. In addition, about another point, it is substantially the same as the boarding of the division | segmentation iron core pieces 12 and 12a.

Next, a press working process based on this plate cutting will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, although the manufacturing method of the split core piece concerning 1st Embodiment is demonstrated, it is the same also in the manufacturing method of the split core piece concerning 2nd, 3rd embodiment.
In this pressing step, as shown in FIG. 1A, a plurality (two in this embodiment) of pilot holes 28 are formed on both side portions at predetermined positions of the strip 16 (first step).

Then, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 1C, along the above-described cutting, the side end 22 of the divided yoke piece 13 of each adjacent divided core piece 12 of the core piece group 24 is contacted. A small hole 29 is formed in the side corner 23 of the magnetic pole piece 14 in contact (second step). The small holes 29 are formed in the same manner for each of the divided core pieces 12. Therefore, in the divided core piece 12 at the end of the strip 16, even if there is no adjacent divided core piece 12, the side end 22 of the divided yoke piece 13 and the side angle of the magnetic pole piece 14. A small hole 29 is formed in the portion 23.

The size of the small hole 29 is 0.5 to 2 mm in diameter, and prevents the occurrence of cuts and burrs when the adjacent processing lines at the time of press processing do not exactly match.
Next, as shown in FIG. 1D, a punch hole 25 is formed between the adjacent divided core pieces 12 of the core piece group 24 along the plate cutting (third step). FIG. 1E shows an idle process.

In FIG. 1F, the magnetic pole tooth piece portion 14 corresponding to the radially inner side connected to the punched hole 25 of each divided core piece 12 is cut and bent along the plate cutting. This cutting and bending process is a process of holding the intermediate part of the divided core piece 12 and bending the magnetic pole tooth piece part 14 and a part of the magnetic pole shaft piece part 15 subsequent thereto by about 10 to 30 degrees. Then, in FIG. 1G, the cut and bent portion is pushed with a flat punch or stripper to return to the base position and flattened. This process is, for example, disclosed as “Cutting and bending process” and “Pushback process” in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2005-318863, and is a known technique (the fourth process).

Next, in FIG. 2H, a caulking hole constituting the caulking portion 21 formed at the center of the divided core piece 12 is formed. The caulking hole is a hole that is formed only in the split core piece 12 positioned at the bottom when laminating and into which the caulking protrusion of the caulking part 21 of the split core piece 12 is inserted. FIG. 2 (I) shows an idle process, and in FIG. 2 (J), the caulking portion 21 is formed with respect to the other divided core pieces 12. This caulking portion may be half-cut caulking or V-shaped caulking (the caulking forming step).

2K is an idle process. In FIG. 2L, the outer side in the radial direction of the split core piece 12 whose one end communicates with the punch hole 25 along the plate cutting (ie, corresponds to the split yoke piece 13). ) Are separated from the strip material 16. As a result, each of the divided core pieces 12 is punched into a die and caulked and laminated to form the divided laminated core 11 (fifth step).

Here, the adjacent divided core pieces 12 (same for 12a) are shifted in the direction of the center line m (that is, the plate material conveying direction), so that the positions of the individual divided core pieces are accurately maintained in the die. The caulking work becomes accurate, and the laminated core pieces are not displaced or fallen.
The above “caulking process” may be any time after the first process and before the fifth process.
When the divided laminated cores 11 manufactured by the above method are combined, a stator core 10 as shown in FIG. 7 is obtained.

The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and can be improved and modified within the scope not changing the gist of the present invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, the core piece group is the width of the strip. Although formed in the direction, it may be formed in the length direction of the strip.
Although the manufacturing method of the split core pieces is limited to the stator core, the present invention is applicable to other cores (for example, a rotor) as long as it is an annular laminated core.
