Abstract: A diode has an electrode in the form of a coiled wire serving as both electrical connection and vibration damper, particularly useful in the case of a diode to be used in the diode bridge rectifier of a motor vehicle alternator. The vibration damper formed by a coiled part of the wire, comprises a helical intermediate coil between a planar end coil to be soldered to the diode proper and a bend joining the vibration damper to a rectilinear portion of the electrode.
Abstract: Identical strips of magnetic metal having alternating slots and pole teeth long one edge are cut from sheet material in a pattern minimizing waste of metal, stacked, and bent into a cylinder or sector of a cylinder. The ends of the stacks are then fastened together to form a rotor or stator.
