  • Patent number: 8957754
    Abstract: A wound transformer core is provided with at least one core loop made of a magnetic material. The transformer core includes multiple thin amorphous band-like iron sheets which are concentrically stacked around at least one center axis. A lower yoke section, an upper yoke section, and at least two limb sections are formed. The transformer core includes a modular plate-like support structure which is affixed upright to the center axis on both face sides of the lower yoke section and on both face sides of each limb section such that neighbored iron sheets are affixed together at their outer edge. The modular plate-like support structure includes, for each face side of the corresponding core sections, at least two plate-like modules, which are each connected to each other by a first or second plug-in connection.

  • Publication number: 20140320253
    Abstract: A transformer core is disclosed, which can include at least three hollow-cylindrical rectangular shaped core-discs wound from a magnetic band-like material, wherein two opposed limb areas and an upper and lower yoke area can be formed along a circumferential path. The core-discs can include one first and at least one second slanted area parallel to the circumferential path in the belonging limb area. The at least three core-discs can be connected according to a polygonal layout at their first slanted areas, which can be arranged adjacently face to face. Conical shaped polygonal adapter plates fitted to the polygonal layout within the upper and lower yoke areas, which can be clamped together.

  • Patent number: 8786390
    Abstract: A transformer of dry design is disclosed having a core composed of amorphous material, which is sensitive to mechanical loads, having at least one winding former which surrounds the core and is in each case formed from at least one primary winding and secondary winding, and having at least one holding apparatus. A method for transformer production is also disclosed, wherein the holding apparatus is used to fix the at least one primary winding and secondary winding in each case and for this purpose it acts on each of the end faces of the at least one winding former.

  • Patent number: 8111123
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a transformer that includes forming a disc-wound coil using a plurality of pre-formed cooling ducts. Each cooling duct may be supported by a support pipe secured between walls of the cooling duct, or by a removable insert. First and second conductor layers are formed, each of which include plurality of disc windings arranged in an axial direction of the disc-wound coil. A spacer layer is formed between the first and second conductor layers to form a plurality of axially-extending passages. The cooling ducts are slid into the axially-extending passages so as to be disposed between the first and second conductor layers.

  • Publication number: 20110113621
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a transformer coil including a conductive winding enclosed in a resin using a mold including two tubular inner mold parts and one outer mold part with a length at least as long as the inner mold parts, the method includes the steps of winding a first conductor around a first inner mold part, winding a second conductor around a second inner mold part, joining one end of the first inner mold part to one end of the second inner mold part forming a sealed joint, connecting electrically the first and second conductors forming one winding, arranging the joined inner mold parts with the winding in the outer mold part, enclosing the winding between the inner and outer mold parts, filling resin into the space enclosed between the mold parts, letting the resin cure, and removing the mold parts.

  • Patent number: 6283626
    Abstract: A multiphase mixing apparatus using acoustic resonance. The apparatus can induce a pressure difference between fluids to be mixed so that a resonance and an acoustic energy are generated, thereby shattering the fluids and effectively mixing them. The shattered gas fluid penetrating into the liquid fluid goes along a swirl flow so that the gas fluid stays in the liquid fluid for a relatively long time. In addition, the acoustic energy perturbs the fluids, a mass transfer resistance decreases.
