  • Publication number: 20230283153
    Abstract: A method and a device by which conductor ends of hairpins sticking out from stator slots are shaped to form coil windings. The ends are shaped in the radial direction using different widening tools allowing the ends to be engaged individually or in pairs so that a first part is at a first radial position, a second part is at a second radial position and a third part is at at least one intermediate position in between. Subsequently, the ends are shaped in the circumferential direction using twisting tools, wherein a twisting tool located further out has inwardly open inner receiving pockets, and a twisting tool located further in has outwardly open outer receiving pockets. At least one of the twisting tools has both inner and outer receiving pockets, one of these located at the at least one intermediate position to shape the third part of the ends.

  • Patent number: 8251314
    Abstract: A cargo receiving arrangement for an aircraft hold with a cargo receiving area provided therein with at least one folding loading bridge (4, 5, 6) and a loading door (20) which closes the aircraft hold in a swivelling manner in the region of the loading bridge, characterized in that a loading door inner face (23) of the loading door is designed in such a way that, when the loading door is swung to, the folding loading bridge folds upwards as a result of the contact with the inner face of the loading door. This is important especially in regions of varying aircraft width, since the loading bridge collides there with the loading door.
