Winding Into Coil Center Patents (Class 242/329)
  • Patent number: 8302286
    Abstract: A stator winding is manufactured by a forming step, a winding step, and a expanding step. In the forming step, an S-shaped offset shape is formed on a conductor part corresponding to a coil end part. Thereby, in a coil end part, it is possible to provide an expected shape stably at the coil end part. The conductor is wound around a bobbin in the winding step. In the winding step, a twisted shape is given to the conductor parts to be the inclined part of the coil end and the conductor part to be accommodated in a slot. In the expanding step, a preform product removed from the bobbin is expanded into a shape of the stator winding.

  • Patent number: 7770286
    Abstract: A manufacturing method of a winding assembly of a rotating electrical machine using a rotation block and a fixed block and a manufacturing apparatus used for the same. The rotation block includes a rotation surface rotatable around a rotation axis, and the fixed block includes a first surface and a second surface opposite to each other and a shaping surface. The shaping surface is formed between end parts of the first and the second surfaces, is made to have an almost semicircular shape with the rotation axis as the center, and extends along the rotation axis. Plural wire rods are simultaneously fed from the first surface of the fixed block to the rotation surface of the rotation block, and the wire rods positioned on the rotation surface are bent by rotation of the rotation block.
