## Abstract

This stator includes: a plurality of divided core units 11a and 11b which respectively have: a plurality of annular divided cores 12a and 12b in each of which a plurality of tooth portions 13 are provided at a predetermined interval on the inner periphery of the corresponding one of annular back yoke portions 14 which are formed as a plurality of divided parts in the axial direction of the rotary electric machine; and a plurality of coils 15 respectively mounted to the tooth portions, wherein the plurality of divided core units are assembled in the axial direction such that the tooth portions thereof are coupled to each other via the annular back yoke portions.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A stator of a rotary electric machine, the stator comprising:
a plurality of divided core units which respectively have: a plurality of annular divided cores in each of which a plurality of tooth portions are provided on an inner periphery of a corresponding one of annular back yoke portions which are formed as a plurality of divided parts in an axial direction of the rotary electric machine; and a plurality of coils respectively mounted to the tooth portions, wherein
the plurality of divided core units are assembled together in the axial direction such that the tooth portions thereof are coupled to each other via the annular back yoke portions, and
two of the plurality of tooth portions on each annular divided core are disposed adjacent to each other.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The stator of the rotary electric machine according to claim 1, wherein
the number of the annular divided cores is three or greater.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The stator of the rotary electric machine according to claim 1, wherein
the coils of each divided core unit are mounted via insulators to the tooth portions, respectively.

### Claim 4

A method for manufacturing a stator of a rotary electric machine, the method comprising:
a first step of creating a plurality of annular divided cores in each of which a plurality of tooth portions are provided at predetermined positions on an inner periphery of a corresponding one of a plurality of annular back yoke portions which are divided parts in an axial direction of the rotary electric machine;
a second step of creating a plurality of divided core units by mounting a coil to each of the tooth portions of the plurality of annular divided cores; and
a third step of integrally assembling together, in the axial direction, the plurality of divided core units such that the tooth portions of the plurality of divided core units are coupled to each other via the annular back yoke portions,
wherein two of the plurality of tooth portions on each annular divided core are disposed adjacent to each other.

### Claim 5 (depends on 4)

The method for manufacturing the stator of the rotary electric machine according to claim 4, wherein
in the third step, the plurality of divided core units are integrally assembled together by fixing, to an inner diameter side of each of the annular back yoke portions, an outer diameter side of each tooth portion of another divided core unit by press-fitting, shrink-fitting, welding, or bonding.

### Claim 6 (depends on 4)

The method for manufacturing the stator of the rotary electric machine according to claim 4, wherein
in the first step, each annular divided core is created by stacking, in the axial direction, thin plates stamped so as to correspond to shapes and dimensions of the annular back yoke portion and the tooth portions, and then fixing and adding, to the member obtained through the stacking, members obtained by stacking thin plates stamped so as to correspond to the shape and the dimensions of only the tooth portions.

### Claim 7 (depends on 4)

The method for manufacturing the stator of the rotary electric machine according to claim 4, wherein
in the first step, each annular divided core is created by stacking thin plates stamped so as to correspond to the shape and the dimensions of the annular back yoke portion, and separately stacking thin plates stamped so as to correspond to the shape and the dimensions of each tooth portion, and then, by integrally fixing each tooth portion obtained through the stacking at a predetermined position of a corresponding annular back yoke portion obtained through the stacking.
