Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[001] The present disclosure generally relates to the field of electric motors and more particularly to a stator tooth for a stator of an electric motor.
BACKGROUND
[002] An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. The electric motor operates based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, where the interaction of magnetic fields generates motion. In the context of an electric vehicle, an electric motor converts electrical energy from a battery into mechanical energy to drive the electric vehicle. Generally, the electric vehicles use brushless direct current (BLDC) motors for their efficiency, reliability, and maintenance requirements.
[003] Fundamental components of the electric motor include a rotor and a stator, working together to generate motion. Typically, the rotor comprises a coil or coils of wire wound around a core, or magnets in the rotor core, and it is connected to a shaft of the motor. When an electric current flows through the coil, it interacts with the magnetic field produced by the stator, causing the rotor to turn. The stator surrounds the rotor and creates a magnetic field. The stator comprises coils or windings of wire that are connected to the power supply. When electric current flows through the stator windings, it produces a magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic field of the rotor, causing the rotor to rotate.
[004] The stators can be categorized into two main types, concentrated winding stators and distributed winding stators. The concentrated winding stator can be made through continuous stators or segmented stators which use corresponding winding techniques. In a continuous stator, a continuous winding covers the circumference of each tooth of the stator. In contrast, a segmented stator has the stator and winding divided into distinct segments, and each segment is responsible for generating a portion of the stator's magnetic field. The construction of a segmented winding stator involves multiple stator teeth, typically made of laminated iron or steel sheets. Each tooth contains copper coils, and these coils are connected to the power supply or invertor. Conventionally, plastic bobbins are used to electrically isolate the copper coils from the stator tooth in the construction process. The plastic bobbins also provide support to form and wind the wire in addition to being electrically insulative. Nevertheless, the plastic bobbins exhibit limited thermal conductivity, failing to establish an efficient heat dissipation route from the coils to the stator and ultimately to the motor housing. For example, the electrical resistance of the stator winding increases with temperature, leading to higher losses and reduced efficiency. Further, increase in temperature may lead to insulation breakdown, reduced motor life, and potential failure. Furthermore, excessive heat may demagnetize the stator core material, affecting the motor's magnetic properties and efficiency.

adhering at least one electrically insulating paper (200) to at least a first pair of sides (120 and 125) of a central portion (105) of an iron part of the stator tooth (100) and two surfaces (140 and 145) of a first portion (110) and two surfaces (150 and 155) of a second portion (115) contiguous with the first pair of sides (120 and 125), wherein the first portion (110) and the second portion (115) are substantially perpendicular to the central portion (105);
detachably coupling two electrically insulating bobbins (305 and 310), to a slot (160) on a surface of the first portion (110) of the iron part of the stator tooth (100), for covering a front portion (130) and a back portion (135) of the central portion (105) of the iron part of the stator tooth (100) for receiving a coil (315) to be wound around the central portion (105) covered with the at least one electrically insulating paper (200) and the two electrically insulating bobbins (305 and 310).
10. The method as claimed in claim 6, the at least one electrically insulating paper (200) comprises adhesive liners.
11. The method as claimed in claim 6, wherein the at least one electrically insulating paper (200) is adhered using glue.
12. The method as claimed in claim 6, wherein the slot (160) is substantially at the center of the surface (165) of the first portion (110) of the iron part of the stator tooth (100).
13. A segmented stator (500) for a motor, the segmented stator (500) comprising:
a plurality of stator tooth (505); and
a plurality of windings, each winding wound around a respective stator tooth (505) of the plurality of stator tooth (505);
characterized in that each stator tooth (505) comprises:
an iron part having a central portion (105), and a first portion (110) and a second portion (115) substantially perpendicular to the central portion (105);
at least one electrically insulating paper (200) adhered to at least a first pair of sides (120 and 125) of the central portion (105) of the iron part of the stator tooth (505) and two surfaces (140 and 145) of the first portion (110) and two surfaces (150 and 155) of the second portion (115) contiguous with the first pair of sides (120 and 125);
two electrically insulating bobbins (305 and 310) covering a front portion (130) and a back portion (135) of the central portion (105) of the iron part of the stator tooth (505); and
a coil (315) wound around the central portion (105) covered with the least one electrically insulating paper (200) and the two electrically insulating bobbins (305 and 310).
