 ステータコア40の周面には、周方向に等間隔に3つの突条48A,48A,48Bが形成されている。
 突条48A,48Aは、周方向の幅がステータコア40の径方向外側へ行くに従い小さくなるテーパ状の横断面形状を有している。
 突条48Bは、テーパ状でなく、周方向の幅が径方向に沿って変わらない四角形の横断面形状を有している。突条48Bの径方向外側の端面には、周方向に沿って外側へ膨らむ僅かなR(曲面)が付与されている。
 又、突条48A,48A,48Bには、それぞれ貫通孔49が形成されている。
On the circumferential surface of the stator core 40, three protrusions 48A, 48A, 48B are formed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction.
The ridges 48A, 48A have a tapered cross-sectional shape in which the width in the circumferential direction becomes smaller toward the radially outer side of the stator core 40.
The ridge 48B is not tapered and has a quadrangular cross-sectional shape whose circumferential width does not change along the radial direction. A slight R (curved surface) that bulges outward along the circumferential direction is provided on the radially outer end surface of the protrusion 48B.
Further, through holes 49 are formed in the protrusions 48A, 48A and 48B, respectively.
 図8に示されるように、突条48A,48A,48Bは、各鋼板40aに形成される突起50A,50A,50Bが重なって形成される。
 各突起50Aは、周方向の幅がステータコア40の径方向外側へ行くに従い小さくなるテーパ状に形成される。
 突起50Bは、テーパ状でなく、周方向の幅が径方向に沿って変わらない四角形の横断面形状となる。突起50Bの径方向外側の端縁には、周方向に沿って外側へ膨らむ僅かなR(曲面)が付与されている。
 突起50A,50A,50Bには、それぞれ貫通孔49が形成される。
 又、突起50A,50A,50Bの各間には、切り欠き52が形成される。この切り欠き52により、突条48A,48A,48Bの各間に、ステータ23の製造時の位置決め用の溝53が形成されるようになっている。
As shown in FIG. 8, the protrusions 48A, 48A, 48B are formed by overlapping the protrusions 50A, 50A, 50B formed on each steel plate 40a.
Each of the protrusions 50A is formed in a taper shape in which the width in the circumferential direction becomes smaller toward the radially outer side of the stator core 40.
The protrusion 50B is not tapered and has a rectangular cross-sectional shape whose circumferential width does not change along the radial direction. A slight R (curved surface) that bulges outward along the circumferential direction is provided on the radially outer end edge of the protrusion 50B.
A through hole 49 is formed in each of the protrusions 50A, 50A and 50B.
A notch 52 is formed between each of the protrusions 50A, 50A, 50B. Due to the notch 52, a groove 53 for positioning the stator 23 at the time of manufacturing is formed between the protrusions 48A, 48A, 48B.
 各突条48Aがテーパ状であるため、上インシュレータ42、下インシュレータ43及び絶縁部44が一体成形される際、金型との干渉が防止される。
 即ち、図8において二点鎖線で示された左右の割り型54でステータコア40に上インシュレータ42、下インシュレータ43及び絶縁部44が一体成形される際、各割り型54に対してテーパ状の2つの突条48A,48Aを左右に位置させることで、図8の左右方向に動作する割り型54に対し、突条48A,48Aがテーパ面によって干渉しないようになっている。この動作方向に対するテーパの角度θは、ここでは3°である。又、突条48Bの端面には、外側へ膨らむRが付与されている。よって、左右の割り型54との干渉が防止される。尚、角度θは、3°に限定されず、1°以上10°以下の範囲で適宜設定されても良い。
Since each protrusion 48A has a tapered shape, interference with the mold is prevented when the upper insulator 42, the lower insulator 43, and the insulating portion 44 are integrally molded.
That is, when the upper insulator 42, the lower insulator 43, and the insulating portion 44 are integrally molded with the stator core 40 by the left and right split molds 54 shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. By positioning the two ridges 48A, 48A on the left and right, the ridges 48A, 48A do not interfere with the split mold 54 that moves in the left-right direction in FIG. 8 due to the tapered surface. The taper angle θ with respect to this operation direction is 3° here. In addition, R that bulges outward is given to the end surface of the protrusion 48B. Therefore, interference with the left and right split molds 54 is prevented. The angle θ is not limited to 3°, and may be set appropriately within the range of 1° to 10°.

 ロータコア55の周縁部には、同心円上に複数(8個)の磁石孔58が軸方向に貫通形成され、各磁石孔58には、板状の永久磁石59が埋設されている。各永久磁石59の内側には、上下両端を除いて鋼板40aに形成された透孔の積層により、肉盗みとしての空間部60が形成され、ロータ24の軽量化が図られている。
The rotor 24 has a cylindrical rotor core 55 in which a plurality of steel plates 40a are laminated in the axial direction, and a rotating shaft 25 penetrating the axial center thereof. The rotor core 55 and the rotary shaft 25 are integrally formed of resin 56. A chamfer 57 (FIG. 4) is formed at the lower end of the rotary shaft 25.
On the outer circumference of the rotary shaft 25, a twill knurl 25a is formed in the resin 56 filling area as a rotary shaft stopper and a rotary shaft slip stopper, and minute irregularities are formed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotary shaft 25 in a grid pattern. It is formed into a shape.
A plurality of (eight) magnet holes 58 are concentrically formed through the periphery of the rotor core 55 in the axial direction, and a plate-shaped permanent magnet 59 is embedded in each magnet hole 58. Inside each of the permanent magnets 59, a space portion 60 as a meat steal is formed by stacking through holes formed in the steel plate 40a excluding the upper and lower ends, and the weight of the rotor 24 is reduced.

 作業者は、ハンドル4を介してベース2を前方へ押すことで、車輪5を介して芝刈機1を芝の生えた地面上で走行させ、芝を切り揃えて芝面を整える。刈られた芝は、集草カゴ7に集められる。
Next, an operation example of such a lawnmower 1 will be described.
When the operator pushes the lock-off button 9 and then pulls the switch lever 8 with two charged battery packs 13 mounted in the battery mounting portion 12, the main switch is turned on, The ON signal is transmitted to the control circuit board of the controller 15.
The microcomputer of the control circuit board that has received the ON signal acquires the rotation state of the rotor 24 based on the detection signal obtained from the rotation detection element 108 of the sensor circuit board 47, and controls ON/OFF of each switching element according to the acquired rotation state. Then, the rotor 24 is rotated by sequentially supplying an exciting current to the coils 45 of the respective phases of the stator 50.
Due to the rotation of the rotor 24, the rotary shaft 25 rotates, and a rotational force is applied to the cutting blade 20 via the spindle 17. Therefore, the lawnmower 1 performs an operation of mowing lawn by the cutting blade 20 that is rotated horizontally (parallel to the ground) around the vertical axis (rotary blade type).
The operator pushes the base 2 forward through the handle 4 to cause the lawnmower 1 to travel on the lawn-grown ground through the wheels 5 and trims the lawn to prepare the lawn surface. The mowed grass is collected in the grass collection basket 7.
 このとき、ブラシレスモータ21では、ステータ23が、回り止め部としての突条48A,48A,48Bを貫通するネジ81によって、ベース28に組み付けられるモータケース22に対して回り止めされるので、公差による影響が小さく、精度の良い回り止めが可能となる。又、ブラシレスモータ21の固定において、高い強度が得られる。特に、ネジ81がステータコア40を直接貫通するため、ステータコア40の外側で上ケース26及び下ケース27をネジで連結する構造に比べて、撓みが生じ難くなっている。
 更に、コイル45を形成するワイヤ115A~115Cは、互いに交差しないので、接触による削れが生じ難くなり、耐久性が高まる。
 又、ロータ24では、回転軸25の外周に綾目ローレット25aが設けられているので、樹脂56の食いつきが良くなって回転方向及び軸方向のスリップトルクが高くなり、刈刃20の回転によって負荷が大きくなっても回転軸25とロータコア55との一体性は保たれる。
At this time, in the brushless motor 21, the stator 23 is prevented from rotating with respect to the motor case 22 assembled to the base 28 by the screw 81 penetrating the protrusions 48A, 48A, 48B serving as a rotation preventing portion, and therefore, it depends on the tolerance. The influence is small, and the rotation can be stopped with high accuracy. Further, when fixing the brushless motor 21, high strength can be obtained. In particular, since the screw 81 directly penetrates the stator core 40, bending is less likely to occur as compared with the structure in which the upper case 26 and the lower case 27 are connected to each other outside the stator core 40 by a screw.
Further, since the wires 115A to 115C forming the coil 45 do not intersect with each other, abrasion due to contact is less likely to occur and durability is improved.
Further, in the rotor 24, since the twill knurls 25a are provided on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 25, the biting of the resin 56 is improved, the slip torque in the rotation direction and the axial direction is increased, and the rotation of the cutting blade 20 causes a load. Even if the value becomes large, the integrity of the rotary shaft 25 and the rotor core 55 is maintained.
 更に、回転軸25の回転により遠心ファン35が回転して周囲の空気を径方向外方に押し出すことで、本体3外側から、その隙間及びモータカバー29の隙間並びにモータユニット16外部を通り、遠心ファン35及びその径方向外方の本体ハウジング10の排気口に至る空気の流れ(風)が形成される。
 この風により、芝刈機1の内部機構が冷却される。
Further, the rotation of the rotating shaft 25 causes the centrifugal fan 35 to rotate and push out the surrounding air radially outward, so that the centrifugal force is passed from the outside of the main body 3 through the gap, the gap of the motor cover 29, and the outside of the motor unit 16 to the centrifugal force. A flow of air (wind) reaching the fan 35 and the exhaust port of the main body housing 10 radially outside thereof is formed.
The wind cools the internal mechanism of the lawnmower 1.
 又、ブラシレスモータ21のステータコア40では、各ティース41に巻かれたコイル45を覆うコイル外側樹脂36が設けられているので、各コイル45への通電を始めとするブラシレスモータ21の作動により発生した熱は、コイル外側樹脂36に伝達する。コイル外側樹脂36が受け取った熱は、直接接触するステータコア40を介して、金属製のモータケース22に伝達し、モータケース22の各フィン65等から放散される。ブラシレスモータ21の発熱は、コイル外側樹脂36がない場合に比べ、モータケース22に伝達する熱量がより多くなり、より効率的に放散される。
 図23(A)にも示されるように、各フィン65には、上方からの風Wがテーパ状の斜面に当たるので、モータケース22ひいてはブラシレスモータ21が効率良く冷却される。
Further, in the stator core 40 of the brushless motor 21, since the coil outer resin 36 covering the coils 45 wound around the teeth 41 is provided, it is generated by the operation of the brushless motor 21 including energization of the coils 45. The heat is transferred to the coil outside resin 36. The heat received by the coil outer side resin 36 is transmitted to the metal motor case 22 through the stator core 40 that is in direct contact therewith, and is dissipated from the fins 65 and the like of the motor case 22. The heat generated by the brushless motor 21 has a larger amount of heat transferred to the motor case 22 and is dissipated more efficiently than when the coil outer resin 36 is not provided.
As shown in FIG. 23(A), the wind W from above hits the tapered slopes of the fins 65, so that the motor case 22 and thus the brushless motor 21 are efficiently cooled.
 続いて、かような芝刈機1が奏し得る作用効果が説明される。
 芝刈機1は、モータケース22に保持され、ステータコア40、コイル45、及びステータコア40とコイル45との間に介在する絶縁部44を有するステータ23、並びに、ステータ23の内側に配置され、回転軸25を有するロータ24を備えたブラシレスモータ21と、回転軸25により駆動するスピンドル17と、を備えており、ステータ23は、各コイル45の外側並びにステータコア40に接触する樹脂であるコイル外側樹脂36を有する。よって、ブラシレスモータ21がコイル外側樹脂36、ステータコア40及びモータケース22により効率良く放熱され、放熱性に優れたブラシレスモータ21を備えた芝刈機1が提供される。
 又、コイル45は、複数設けられており、コイル外側樹脂36は、複数の各コイル45の外側に共通して接触するよう一連に配置されている。よって、コイル外側樹脂36がより形成し易い。
 更に、モータケース22は、非磁性体の金属製である。よって、コイル外側樹脂36がステータコア40を介して熱伝導性に優れた非磁性体の金属に熱結合され、より一層放熱性が高められる。
Next, the operational effects that the lawnmower 1 can play will be described.
The lawn mower 1 is held by the motor case 22, and is provided with a stator core 40, a coil 45, and a stator 23 having an insulating portion 44 interposed between the stator core 40 and the coil 45, and is arranged inside the stator 23. A brushless motor 21 having a rotor 24 having 25 and a spindle 17 driven by a rotating shaft 25 are provided. The stator 23 has a coil outside resin 36 that is a resin that contacts the outside of each coil 45 and the stator core 40. Have. Therefore, the brushless motor 21 is efficiently radiated by the coil outside resin 36, the stator core 40, and the motor case 22, and the lawnmower 1 including the brushless motor 21 having excellent heat radiation is provided.
A plurality of coils 45 are provided, and the coil outside resin 36 is arranged in series so as to commonly contact the outside of each of the plurality of coils 45. Therefore, the coil outer side resin 36 is easier to form.
Further, the motor case 22 is made of non-magnetic metal. Therefore, the coil outside resin 36 is thermally coupled to the non-magnetic metal having excellent thermal conductivity via the stator core 40, and the heat dissipation is further enhanced.

[Sixth form]
The sixth form of the present invention is the same as the first form except for the forms of the motor case and the stator. Members and portions similar to those in the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals, and description thereof will be appropriately omitted.
FIG. 26 is a vertical cross-sectional explanatory view of the motor unit 616 of the lawnmower according to the sixth embodiment of the present invention.
The motor case 622 of the motor unit 616 has a cup-like shape having a bottom on the upper side and an upper case 626 having a flange 626a on the outer side of the upper end, and a bottomed double-cylinder shape having an outer cylinder 627a. And a lower case 627 having an inner flange 627b protruding radially inward in the upper opening.
The upper case 626 and the lower case 627 are fitted on the upper side of the inner flange 627b with the flange 626a mounted thereon via an O-ring 628a (elastic member) made of an elastic body (rubber) as a waterproof member. The upper case 626 enters the outer cylindrical portion 627a of the lower case 627 and faces the inner cylindrical portion 627c of the lower case 627.
The stator core 40 of the stator 623 including the stator core 40, the upper insulator 42, the lower insulator 43, the insulating portion 44, and the coil 45 is sandwiched between the lower portion of the upper case 626 and the upper portion of the inner cylindrical portion 627c of the lower case 627. .. The stator 623 does not include the coil outer resin 36.
 上ケース626の上壁中央部には、Oリング628bを介してロータ24の回転軸25の軸受68が保持されており、下ケース627の下壁中央部には、Oリング628cを介して回転軸25の軸受76が保持されている。
 又、回転軸25における軸受76とロータコア55との間の部分に対し、遠心ファン635が固定されている。遠心ファン635は、下ケース627の内筒部627cの内側に配置されており、コイル45及びステータコア40の下方に配置されている。
 内筒部627cにおける遠心ファン635の径方向外方の部分には、内筒部627cの内側と外側とをつなぐ複数の通風口としての貫通孔627dが形成されている。他方、上ケース626におけるフランジ626aの下方の部分には、同様に複数の通風口としての貫通孔626bが形成されている。そして、これらの貫通孔627d,626b、並びに内筒部627cと外筒部627aとの間、ステータコア40と及び外筒部627aとの間、及び上ケース626と外筒部627aとの間により、風路W1が形成される。内筒部627c及び上ケース626がモータケース622の内壁となり、外筒部627aがモータケース622の外壁となっている。
A bearing 68 of the rotary shaft 25 of the rotor 24 is held in the center of the upper wall of the upper case 626 via an O-ring 628b, and is rotated in the center of the lower wall of the lower case 627 via an O-ring 628c. The bearing 76 of the shaft 25 is held.
A centrifugal fan 635 is fixed to a portion of the rotary shaft 25 between the bearing 76 and the rotor core 55. The centrifugal fan 635 is arranged inside the inner cylindrical portion 627c of the lower case 627, and is arranged below the coil 45 and the stator core 40.
A through hole 627d is formed in a portion of the inner cylindrical portion 627c that is radially outward of the centrifugal fan 635, as a plurality of ventilation holes that connect the inner side and the outer side of the inner cylindrical portion 627c. On the other hand, through holes 626b serving as a plurality of ventilation holes are similarly formed in a portion of the upper case 626 below the flange 626a. Then, by these through holes 627d, 626b, and between the inner cylinder portion 627c and the outer cylinder portion 627a, between the stator core 40 and the outer cylinder portion 627a, and between the upper case 626 and the outer cylinder portion 627a, The air passage W1 is formed. The inner tubular portion 627c and the upper case 626 serve as an inner wall of the motor case 622, and the outer tubular portion 627a serves as an outer wall of the motor case 622.
 ロータ24の回転軸25が回転すると、遠心ファン635が回転して空気を径方向外方へ押す。すると、貫通孔627dを通過する風W2が発生し、風路W1に案内されて風路W1を通過する風W3となり、更に貫通孔626bを通過する風W4となる。風W4は、各コイル45の上部と上ケース626の上内壁との間に進入し、遠心ファン635に吸い寄せられて各コイル45間(図6,図7参照)への風W5となって、各コイル45等を冷却する。遠心ファン635の回転中、一連の風W2~W5が巡り続ける。 When the rotary shaft 25 of the rotor 24 rotates, the centrifugal fan 635 rotates and pushes air radially outward. Then, the wind W2 passing through the through hole 627d is generated, becomes the wind W3 guided by the air passage W1 and passes through the wind passage W1, and becomes the wind W4 further passing through the through hole 626b. The wind W4 enters between the upper part of each coil 45 and the upper inner wall of the upper case 626, is sucked by the centrifugal fan 635, and becomes the wind W5 between the coils 45 (see FIGS. 6 and 7). The coils 45 and the like are cooled. During the rotation of the centrifugal fan 635, a series of winds W2 to W5 continue to circulate.
 かような第6形態の芝刈機は、モータケース622に保持され、ステータコア40、コイル45、及びステータコア40とコイル45との間に介在する絶縁部44を有するステータ623、並びに、ステータ623の内側に配置され、回転軸25を有するロータ24を備えたブラシレスモータ621と、回転軸25により駆動するスピンドル17と、回転軸25により駆動する遠心ファン635と、を備えており、モータケース622は、外壁(下ケース627の外筒部627a)と内壁(下ケース627の内筒部627c及び上ケース626)とを有しており、内壁内にブラシレスモータ621及び遠心ファン635を保持しており、遠心ファン635による風W3は、モータケース622の外壁と内壁の間を通過する。よって、モータケース622内で風W2~W5が循環し、ブラシレスモータ621が風W2~W5により効率良く放熱され、放熱性に優れたブラシレスモータ21を備えた芝刈機が提供される。
 又、モータケース622は、貫通孔627d,626bを有している。よって、外壁と内壁の間の通風路に係る風路がシンプルに形成される。
Such a sixth type lawnmower is held in the motor case 622 and has a stator core 40, a coil 45, a stator 623 having an insulating portion 44 interposed between the stator core 40 and the coil 45, and the inside of the stator 623. Is provided with a rotor 24 having a rotating shaft 25, a brushless motor 621, a spindle 17 driven by the rotating shaft 25, and a centrifugal fan 635 driven by the rotating shaft 25. It has an outer wall (the outer cylinder portion 627a of the lower case 627) and an inner wall (the inner cylinder portion 627c of the lower case 627 and the upper case 626), and holds the brushless motor 621 and the centrifugal fan 635 inside the inner wall. The wind W3 from the centrifugal fan 635 passes between the outer wall and the inner wall of the motor case 622. Therefore, the winds W2 to W5 circulate in the motor case 622, the brushless motor 621 is efficiently radiated by the winds W2 to W5, and the lawn mower provided with the brushless motor 21 having excellent heat dissipation is provided.
The motor case 622 has through holes 627d and 626b. Therefore, the air passage related to the air passage between the outer wall and the inner wall is simply formed.
