Patents by Inventor Kevin Allen Young

Kevin Allen Young has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 8327677
    Abstract: A twisting device comprises at least one conductor coupler configured to engage a plurality of the conductors and at least one drive operably connected to the conductor coupler. The at least one drive is configured to rotate the conductor coupler in order to bend the plurality of the conductors and simultaneously move the conductor coupler in an axial direction relative to the electric machine component. An associated method of bending conductors positioned in a component of an electric machine comprises first engaging a plurality conductors with a conductor coupler. Thereafter, the plurality of conductors are bent by rotating the conductor coupler while simultaneously moving the conductor coupler in an axial direction relative to the component of the electric machine.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6478890
    Abstract: Isotropic magnetic alloy powder having an intrinsic magnetic induction of at least two third of its magnetic remanence and method for making same are provided. The powder is made from an alloy having a composition comprising, by weight percentage, approximately 15 to 35 percent of one or more rare earth metals, approximately 0.5 to 4.5 percent of boron, and approximately 0 to 20 percent of cobalt, balanced with iron. The alloy powder is made by a process wherein an amount of the alloy is melt and spun in an inert environment, preferably at a distance between an orifice and a wheel being less than one and one half inches, into ribbons, followed by crushing the ribbons into powder and annealing the powder.
