Rotor for rotary electric machine

A rotor for a rotary electric machine, the rotor including a shaft, a rotor core, and coils incorporated in slots of the rotor core, the rotor comprising:

• a tubular retaining ring opened on an outer side thereof in an axial direction and covering a coil end portion of each coil;
• and
• rotor baffles and insulation baffles alternately connected in a circumferential direction and partitioning a space in the retaining ring into a first space on an inner side in a radial direction where the coil end portion is not present, and a second space on an outer side in the radial direction where a center portion in the circumferential direction of the coil end portion is present, wherein
• each rotor baffle is disposed on an inner side in the radial direction of a portion, of the corresponding coil end portion, at which a jumper portion is formed,
• the insulation baffles are disposed along end surfaces on an inner side in the radial direction of extending portions of a plurality of conductors forming the coil end portions,
• a gap is present between an end surface of the rotor core and an end, on a center side of the rotor, of each insulation baffle,
• the first space is formed over an entire circumference around the shaft, and
• the rotor baffle includes, at a part thereof on a radially outer side of which the jumper portion is present, a first tapered shape part tilted so as to be more apart from the jumper portion toward a center side in the axial direction of the rotor.
