Abstract: A polyphase winding of ladder-like configuration for a linear motor is installed into a prearranged inductor assembly having a plurality of parallely arranged grooves, the inductor being attached to the underside of a T-shaped type carrier; a vehicle runs on that carrier carrying a drum for storing the winding (cable assembly), and there is a deflection system which runs the winding from the drum towards the underside of the carrier in near-tangential disposition whereby a tool resiliently mounted on an outrigger causes rungs of the ladder to be sequentially forced into the grooves of the inductor and, possibly, locked therein.
