  • Method of breaking interlaminar bonds of an amorphous metal core
    Patent number: 5426846
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for structurally restraining and reinforcing an amorphous metal core of an electrical transformer employs an adhesive bonding agent applied to the lamination edges and protective layers of the core followed by adhesion of a woven fabric thereto to form a highly permeable oil/air interface with the lamination edges of the amorphous material, while providing an effective chip containment system thereto. A temporary guide sleeve aids the core and coil lacing operation. A method for breaking performance inhibiting interlaminar bonds between the amorphous layers of the core.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 23, 1994
    Date of Patent: June 27, 1995
    Assignee: Cooper Power Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: James V. White, Donald Stachewicz, Robert M. Weier
