The present invention provides a solid electric wire having a small resistance value and a low resistance increase rate at high frequency. A solid electric wire T has a structure in which a plurality of unit wires S are regularly confounded. Each of the unit wires S repeatedly extends inside and outside the electric wire, with a twist direction changed on the basis of a predetermined period. Accordingly, all or most of the unit wires cross each other, and a very large number of cross points are thus created. This reduces the effects of magnetic lines of force on the interaction between the unit wires. This in turn reduces a value for resistance to a high frequency current and the rate of increase in resistance associated with an increase in frequency. Moreover, the regular confounding structure of the unit wires advantageously leads to stable quality.
A solid electric wire manufactured by confounding a plurality of unit wires together, the wire being characterized by being formed by confounding the unit wires together so that each of the unit wires repeatedly extends through an interior of the electric wire and then on a surface portion of the electric wire.
A solid electric wire manufactured by confounding a plurality of unit wires together, the wire being characterized by being formed by confounding the unit wires together so that each of the unit wires repeatedly extends through an interior of the electric wire and then on a surface portion of the electric wire and so that for each unit wire, rate at which each unit wire is located inside the electric wire is substantially equal to rate at which the unit wire is located on the surface portion.
A solid electric wire manufactured by confounding a plurality of unit wires together, the wire being characterized in that the unit wires are twisted together so that each of the unit wires repeatedly extends through an interior of the electric wire and then on a surface portion of the electric wire and so that a twist direction is changed on the basis of a predetermined period.
A method of manufacturing a solid electric wire by confounding a plurality of unit wires together by moving a plurality of bobbins around each of which a unit wire has been wound, along a predetermined track while drawing out the unit wire from each bobbins the method being characterized in that a plurality of bobbin carriers holding said bobbins are arranged on a track plate in which a guide groove is formed so that the bobbin carriers form a plurality of rows, and interference among the bobbin carriers is avoided by moving said bobbin carriers on a predetermined path along the guide groove in the track plate, and in the middle of a moving step, performing an operation of delaying movement of each of the bobbin carriers at a particular point of the guide groove.
An apparatus that manufactures a solid electric wire by confounding a plurality of unit wires together, the apparatus being characterized by comprising bobbin carriers each holding a bobbin around which the unit wire has been wound, a plurality of vane wheels each having a plurality of slits into one of which a guide section of the corresponding bobbin carrier is inserted, the vane wheels being arranged so as to rotate synchronously, and a track plate in which a guide groove is formed to set a movement path for the bobbin carriers arranged on the vane wheels, and in that the bobbin carrier inserted into one of the slits in the corresponding vane wheel moves on a predetermined path along the guide groove in the track plate while being delivered from one of the vane wheels to another, and in that the apparatus includes slit shifting means for performing an operation on particular vane wheels, the operation comprising retreating the bobbin carrier from the slot in the corresponding vane wheel and then inserting the bobbin carrier into the adjacent slit in the same vane wheel.
