Abstract
The method and apparatus are used to produce a wave winding. To simplify and accelerate the production of wave windings, after winding at least one turn, a stripping stroke pushes the wire between and axially along the first and second shaping elements, which causes radial deformation of the wire to take place in each continual stripping substroke.
Claims17
A method for producing wave windings for stators of electrical machinery, comprising the steps of:
- winding a wire on first shaping elements arranged in a circle;
- shaping said wire into a wave shape between said first shaping elements and second shaping elements;
- pushing said wire with a stripping stroke during said step of winding after winding said wire at least one turn which pushes said wire between and axially along said first and second shaping elements;
- and radially deforming said wire during each stripping stroke during said step of winding.
1 more element
An apparatus for producing wave windings for stators of electrical machinery, comprising:
- a machine housing;
- a winding nozzle mounted to said housing;
- first and second shaping elements mounted to said housing;
- a stripper mounted to said housing;
- and a coil receiver mounted to said housing;
- wherein said stripper pushes a wave winding between and axially along said first and second shaping elements after said wave winding has been wound at least one turn, and whereby radial deformation of the wave winding takes place while said stripper operates.
