Abstract
A method and to a device for inserting a plurality of wires into a plurality of grooves of a component, such as a stator or rotor of an electric motor, in which the wires are inserted by gripping elements.
Claims21
A method for inserting a plurality of wires into a plurality of grooves of a component of an electric motor, the component having a longitudinal axis, the method comprising the following:
- compressing the wires such that during compression, the wires are pressed onto or between a number of guide plates which are radially movable,
- after the compressing, providing the wires radially offset to the component so that the wires extend at least partially along the longitudinal axis,
- gripping the wires at their respective first axial ends by first gripping elements and at their respective second axial ends opposite said first axial ends by of second gripping elements, and
- radially moving the gripping elements and thereby pressing the wires into the grooves.

(canceled)
A device for inserting a plurality of wires into a plurality of grooves of a component of an electric motor, the component having a longitudinal axis, the device comprising the following:
- first gripping elements configured to grip the wires at their respective first axial ends, and second gripping elements configured to grip the wires at their respective second axial ends opposite said first axial ends when the wires are provided radially offset to the component, the gripping elements being configured to move radially to press the wires into the grooves, and
- radially movable guide plates,
- wherein the device is configured to compress the wires before the wires are provided and to press the wires onto or between the guide plates during compression.
