Abstract
This bus bar module (26) is created by integrally forming at least one coil bus bar with a power line bus bar by means of resin molding, said coil bus bar for connecting conductive coil wires together, and said power line bus bar for connecting the conductive coil wires with a power line. The power line bus bar (32) is supported on a support portion (34) that extends from a bus bar module main body (28). The power line bus bar penetrates through a beam (44) of the support portion. The portion of the power line bus bar embedded inside the beam (44) has characteristically shaped portions (56) extending in the width direction of this bus bar.

1-8. (canceled)
A bus bar module having at least one coil bus bar for connecting coil wires to each other and at least one power line bus bar for connecting the coil wires to power lines, the coil wires being attached to a stator core of a rotating electric machine, the power line bus bar being a flat plate member, and the coil bus bar and the power line bus bar being formed by mold forming using a resin material, the bus bar module comprising:
- a bus bar module main body which contains the coil bus bar;
- and
- at least one power line bus bar support portion which extends outward from the bus bar module main body and supports the power line bus bar, the power line bus bar support portion including a coupling member through which the power line bus bar penetrates and which contains a part of the power line bus bar to thereby be coupled with the part of the power line bus bar, wherein:
- the power line bus bar has a characteristically shaped portion in a portion contained in the coupling portion, the characteristically shaped portion extending in a direction which intersects with a direction in which the power line bus bar penetrates through the coupling member, and
- is within a plane defined by a plate surface of the power line bus bar;
- and
- the power line bus bar support portion has two arms extending outward from the bus bar module main body and a beam connecting between the two arms, the beam functioning as the coupling member.
