Abstract
An alternator having a rotor and a stator is described. The stator includes a cylindrical body with a plurality of phases. Each of the plurality of phases includes a phase input located at least partially outside of the cylindrical body, where the phase input is formed of a bar. The bar includes a longitudinal surface extending along at least a part of the bar, a first segment crossing the cylindrical body, and a second segment extending from an axial side of the cylindrical body. Each of the plurality of phases further includes a phase output located at least partially outside of the cylindrical body and conducting elements crossing the cylindrical body and forming at two axially opposite sides of the body, respectively, a first chignon and a second chignon. The conducting elements are electrically connected to form at least one winding connecting the phase input to the phase output.
