Abstract: A method of and apparatus for inserting coils into slots formed in the stator core of a dynamoelectric machine such as an electric motor, with the stator core having open type slots each of which cooperates with blades of the apparatus for guiding the coil and a stripper for forcing the coil out of the blades. A closed space has a volume sufficient to avoid any disorder of coil wire layers when the coil is received by the closed space. After placing the coils in the closed spaces, the coils are pushed into the respective slots and, as desired, the coils are further compressed until the coil wires assume a non-circular cross-section. By so doing, it is possible to remarkably increase the space factor of each slot.

Abstract: A cushioning member is placed in the open slots formed in a core, weirs are disposed at the ends of teeth located on both sides of each of said open slots, a coil composed of a conductor having an insulation film is disposed in said open slots and between said weirs, and said coil is pressed from the opening of said slot toward the bottom thereof in order to deform the cross-sectional shape of the conductor having insulation film from a circular shape into a non-circular shape.

Abstract: A coil winding and inserting machine suitable for winding stator coils of 3-phase multipolar motors. The machine has a plurality of independently liftable tooling blades and auxiliary plates. Three winding forms are formed simultaneously or in a predetermined sequence, each being constituted by two tooling blades and one selectively lifted auxiliary plate. Three flyers corresponding to the three winding forms are rotated around these winding forms to form coils of the first pole of respective phases. Then, the flyers make a 180.degree. indexing rotation and coils of the second pole are formed in the same manner as the coils of the first pole. After the winding of all coils, the coils are inserted into the stator core together with the wedges. Accordingly, it is possible to form the coils of u, v and w phases without cutting wires between two poles of respective phases, while ensuring an equal circumferential length of coils of all phases.

Abstract: A rotor core of an electric rotary machine is provided with a number of slots opening toward the outer peripheral surface of the core and teeth formed between the slots. At the sides of the rotor core are mounted spidery end plates having notches opposing the slots and projections opposing the teeth. That end surface of the projection which is remote from the rotor core is formed to extend farther from the end surface of the rotor core as it becomes distant from the axis of the rotor core. The rotor winding is wound about the rotor core and spidery end plates to be buried in the slots and notches, the bottom of the notch being higher than the laminate slot, so that the slot liner is not distorted during winding operations.

Abstract: A molding apparatus for molding a coil of a stator of a rotary electric machine having a novel construction for fitting the stator readily to its mold enabling the molding operation to be continuously performed without interruption even if the thickness of the stator shows variations when fitted to the mold. The molding apparatus includes a pair of mold members, one mold member enclosing one coil end of the stator having a stator core and a coil wound thereon with a clearance therebetween and positioned against one end surface of the stator core disposed outwardly of the one coil end and the other mold member set on the inner periphery of the stator core and enclosing the other coil end of the stator with a clearance therebetween while being positioned against the other end surface of the stator core disposed outwardly of the other coil end. The two mold members are prevented from striking each other when the stator core is held therebetween.
