Abstract
In an armature coil conductor arraying apparatus, a cylindrical coil guide tool 25 has a plurality of inner insertion holes or grooves 23a into which inner legs of coil conductors 2 are inserted and a plurality of outer grooves 24a provided radially outwardly of the inner insertion holes in respective outer peripheries of cylindrical inner coil holder 23 and cylindrical outer coil holder 24. A cylindrical holder 26 rotatable about an axis of the coil guide tool is disposed radially outwardly of the coil guide tool, and mounts a plurality of inclined settling plates or guides 29 for guiding outer legs of the coil conductors into the outer grooves when the holder is rotated.
Claims6
An armature coil conductor arraying apparatus, comprising:
- a) a cylindrical coil guide tool (25) defining a plurality of inner insertion holes (23a) provided with equal intervals therebetween in a circumferential direction and into which linear inner legs of substantially U-shaped coil conductors shaped into a predetermined form are inserted, and a plurality of outer grooves (24a) provided radially outwardly of said inner insertion holes in an outer periphery of the guide tool,
- b) a cylindrical holder (26) disposed radially outwardly of said coil guide tool, and rotatable about an axis of said coil guide tool, and
- c) a plurality of inclined guide members (29) mounted to an inner peripheral surface of said holder with equal intervals therebetween in the circumferential direction for pressing and guiding linear outer legs of said coil conductors in an inwardly spiralling direction so that said outer legs are led into said outer grooves, when said holder is rotated.
