Coil bending machine

A coil bending machine configured to, in a stator core including a cylindrical yoke and multiple teeth that protrude radially inward from the yoke and are spaced uniformly in a circumferential direction, and having a slot formed between circumferentially adjacent teeth, while lead portions of a segment coil which is a U-shaped lead wire including a bent portion and two of the lead portions extending from the bent portion are inserted into two slots, push-bend end portions of the lead portions protruding from an axial end face of the stator core toward the stator core, the coil bending machine comprising:

• a coil bending member that push-bends the end portions of the lead portions protruding from the axial end face of the stator core toward the stator core;
• and
• a coil pressing mechanism that press-fixes the segment coils inside the slot toward the yoke in the slot, from a radially inner side of the stator core.
