Patent number: 8358045Abstract: Presented is a winding arrangement for an electric machine that includes a laminated core that includes a yoke that includes a plurality of teeth each having flanks that form first wedge surfaces and a winding support area that has a trapezoidal cross-section. The arrangement further includes a coil winding, and a winding body configured to arrange the coil winding on one of the plurality of teeth. The coil winding has an inner area arranged opposite the first wedge surfaces and represents second wedge surfaces. The arrangement further includes a stop means disposed on the winding body and/or one of the plurality of teeth. The stop means is configured to limit movement of the winding body in a direction toward the yoke. The arrangement further includes a centering means configured to center the winding body on one of the plurality of teeth.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2008Date of Patent: January 22, 2013Assignee: ZF Friedrichshafen AGInventors: Marcus van Heyden, Alexander Gehring, Ralf Rönnebeck, Florian Leberfinger, Frank Kewes

Patent number: 5443378Abstract: A standard injection molding machine is combined with an auxiliary plasticizing unit having a hot runner manifold that can be alternately connected with or disconnected from the main injection unit of the molding machine to perform sandwich molding. The injection unit retracts from the mold to connect with a hot runner and receive skin material from a non-reciprocating screw extruder directly into the barrel of the injection unit. The injection unit then disconnects from the hot runner and moves back into position for injection into the mold. Simultaneously with this movement, the injection unit plasticizes sufficient core material to complete the stacked arrangement of skin and core material necessary for sandwich molding. In an alternate embodiment, the sandwich molding apparatus includes an accumulator with a suitable valve and connections to the other components to supply a final shot of skin material into the mold, as well as provide the pack and hold functions of the injection cycle.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 1994Date of Patent: August 22, 1995Assignee: Ferromatik Milacron Maschinenbau GmbHInventors: Christoph Jaroschek, Reinhard Steger, Wolfgang Nesch, Alexander Gehring, Karlheinz Bourdon
