Patent attributes
A stator for an electric motor may have a substantially annular shape centered around a central axis and may include a stator core having a plurality of teeth consecutively arranged in a circumferential direction, and a plurality of coils wound around respective teeth of the plurality of teeth. The plurality of coils may be grouped into a plurality of phase groups. The stator may include in association with the respective phase groups: at least one loop wire connecting at least two coils of the respective phase group in series with each other with the at least one loop wire being positioned at a radially inner portion of the stator, and at least two end wires respectively connected to two end coils of the respective phase group. The at least two end wires may be configured to be connected to a power source to energize the coils of the respective phase group.
