ASSEMBLY LINE METHOD FOR AND METHOD OF PRODUCING ARMATURE COILS

摘要

A semi-automated method for forming armature coils (20) comprising a plurality of transposed wire pairs (10) includes joining a plurality of pairs of wires (10) having offset segments along their lengths, insulating each of the transposed pairs of wires, assembling the plurality of the insulated transposed pairs of wires with the transpositions (18) being staggered to create a pack (19), and forming the pack (19) into an armature coil (20) in an automated coil forming machine by bending the pack (19) in two planes. The joining of the plurality of pairs of wires (10) having the offset segments along their lengths is effectuated at a transposition point. Each pair of wires has a transposition (18) at a unique point relative to the others of the plurality of the pairs of wires forming the coils.
