Abstract
Provided is a vehicle AC generator which enables the common use of components and the use of the same molding die for molded bodies to enable a significant reduction in fabrication cost. The vehicle AC generator includes a molded body (45). On one surface side of the molded body, a capacitor body (43) including a capacitor element built therein is electrically connected to an insert conductor. On another surface side of the molded body, a resistor (44) is electrically connected to the insert conductor only when a device main body is provided outside of the AC generator, and the device main body is electrically connected to the insert conductor only when the device main body is provided in the AC generator.
Claims9
An AC generator, comprising:
- a stator around which a stator winding is wound;
- a rotor around which a rotor winding is wound, for inducing an AC electromotive force in the stator winding by rotational driving thereof;
- a rectifier for converting the AC electromotive force into a DC output voltage;
- and
- a molded body including an insert conductor, the molded body having approximately the same outer shape both in a case where a device main body having a function of regulating a magnitude of the DC output voltage is provided in the AC generator and a case where the device main body is provided outside of the AC generator, wherein:
- on one surface side of the molded body, a capacitor body including a capacitor element built therein is electrically connected to the insert conductor;
- and
- on another surface side of the molded body, a resistor is electrically connected to the insert conductor only when the device main body is provided outside of the AC generator, and the device main body is electrically connected to the insert conductor only when the device main body is provided in the AC generator.
