Patent number: 7723892Abstract: A synchronous motor includes multiple coil segments, each of which has an iron core in the form of a core stack that is wound with a coil. The coil segments are characterized in that the coils press fastening elements having at least two legs against two opposite surfaces of the substantially right parallelepiped iron core. In each case, at least one leg of the fastening element abutting against the iron core is pressed against the iron core, and at least one free leg of the fastening element projects away from the iron core. The free legs are fastened to connecting elements that connect multiple coil segments to one another.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2008Date of Patent: May 25, 2010Assignee: Etel S.A.Inventors: Vincent Cardon, Jean-Pierre Morel

Patent number: 7687964Abstract: An electric motor has a field assembly, such as a stator, for a dynamoelectric machine has field coils that are wound to a net shape. Lead wires are brought out from the ends of each field coil. The field coils are insulated with insulating sleeves or insulating slot liners. The field coils are assembled with stator core pieces, such as pole pieces and return path pieces, into the stator. The stator core pieces are formed prior to being assembled with the field coils. In an aspect of the invention, the pole pieces and return path pieces are separately formed and then assembled together with the field coils, which have also been separately formed.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2009Date of Patent: March 30, 2010Assignee: Black & Decker Inc.Inventors: Hung T. Du, Brandon L. Verbrugge, Earl M. Ortt, Michael J. Agnes, Michael A. Zemlock, Robert G. Kusmierski, David J. Smith
