Coil removal apparatus for a dynamoelectric generator

摘要

A coil removal apparatus for a dynamoelectric generator. This apparatus directs a radial pulling force on the legs of a coil to be removed from stator core slots during rewinding operations. The apparatus includes a frame including a frame member of predetermined length. A pair of gripper members are provided with grippers jaws to grasp each leg of a coil to be removed. The gripper members are connected to the frame member. The frame member is connected to a pulling mechanism that applies a horizontal force to the frame member to pull the coil out of the slots without binding in the slots.
