ARMATURE WINDING METHOD AND APPARATUS

摘要

Pivotally mounted wire trimming blades (184) having sharp, wire trimming, edges (192) are positioned so that they extend through notches in the inner commutator shield (122) of a double flier armature winder and lie against the outer periphery of the inner shield. The start or finish wires, as the case may be, are severed by being pulled against the wire trimming edges (192). The wire trimming edges have offset portions, or else the trimming blades are movable to offset locations, so that the trimming of the start wires are at locations which are radially and longitudinally offset from the locations at which the finish wires are trimmed.
