  • Publication number: 20240105374
    Abstract: Holding mechanisms for an electromagnetic core, assemblies thereof, and methods of manufacturing same are disclosed, such as for electromagnetic cores having a predetermined number of limbs. According to some embodiments, the holding mechanism may include a hub having an axis, wherein the hub comprises a plurality of apertures corresponding to the predetermined number of limbs of the electromagnetic core, such as an aperture in the hub per limb of the electromagnetic core. Each of the apertures may be configured to receive an end portion of a respective limb radially around the axis. Further, the axis of the hub may be coincident with the central axis of the electromagnetic core when the predetermined number of limbs of the electromagnetic core are received in the plurality of apertures. In one implementation, the holding mechanism comprises a plurality of jaws corresponding to the predetermined number of limbs of the electromagnetic core.
