Abstract: A 64-channel polymer lithium ion battery formation fixture machine is disclosed, comprising a machine frame, wherein, further comprising a pressure control device, a 64-channel laminate, a temperature control cabinet and a battery formation cabinet; the pressure control device is mounted on the machine frame, and the 64-channel laminate is mounted on the pressure control device; the 64-channel laminate comprises a heating plate, a fixture pressure plate, a temperature sensor, a connecting chain, a guide block, a silicon plate and a battery tab contact pin for clamping tab of the polymer lithium ion battery, a plurality of fixture pressure plates are arranged in parallel, and the polymer lithium ion battery is clamped between two fixture pressure plates; the heating plate is attached to the surface of the fixture pressure plate for clamping polymer lithium ion battery, and the silicon plate is attached to the surface opposite to the heating plate; the temperature sensor is mounted inside the fixture pressure p

Abstract: A filament winding apparatus prevents a fiber bundle supplied to a liner from interfering with other fiber bundles and fiber supplying guides. First and second guide units include a plurality of fiber supplying guides arranged radially and extending and contracting in a direction approximately perpendicular to a liner central axis. When a fiber bundle supplied from a first supplying guide of the first guide unit crosses between a second supplying guide of the second guide unit and the liner, the distance from the second supplying guide to the liner central axis is made larger than the distance from the first supplying guide to the liner central axis, and in the reverse case, the distance from the first supplying guide to the liner central axis is made larger than the distance from the second supplying guide to the liner central axis.

Abstract: A method of winding an electric motor core member includes continuously winding a single conductor about a portion of an electric motor core member, and separating the single, continuously wound conductor into multiple phase windings.

Abstract: A layered tape guide spool having a plurality of guide rods, each of which have a first and a second guide member. The gaps between adjacent guide rods and the gaps formed between the first and second guide members define a gap that urges the tape stacks together into a desirable rectangular shape. The resulting tape stacks are then wrapped onto a tubular core or onto existing layers on a tubular core.

Abstract: A wire/fiber ring having two layers applied in four clock positions. Each layer includes a first material strand having a first diameter and a second material strand having a second diameter different from the first diameter. A second or any subsequent layer is disposed such that there is unambiguous nesting between strands in adjacent layers. After the array is built-up, wire is over-wrapped around the array to hold it in place during subsequent consolidation steps, which take place after the built-up array is sealed in an air-tight container and evacuated. After heating and application of pressure a wire/fiber array having a void content of about 12% and a fiber content of between about 0% to 70% and preferably between about 30% and 45% can be achieved.
