Method of horizontally stacking a stator core within a stator frame

摘要

The present invention provides a method for the horizontal stacking of laminations 10 and donuts to form a stator core. A stator generator frame 2 has multiple keybars 6 that run the axial length of the frame. The laminations 10 have grooves 12 there-in that engage the keybars to provide a secure fit of the laminations to the generator frame. By extending two or more of the keybars 6 , these extensions 7 may be used as rails on which the laminations may be horizontally inserted into the stator frame.
