An improved transformer core joint for use in connection with amorphous metal transformers which includes a plurality of spirally wound laminations that are divided into a plurality of groups of laminations. The laminations within a group of laminations essentially provide a butt joint within the group while adjacent groups of laminations form a lap joint with each other. The groups of laminations are divided into sets of groups and a step either in the direction of the spiral or against the direction of the spiral occurs between each of the sets of groups. The joint of the invention provides a compact, easily disassembled and reassembled core joint for accommodating the manufacture of amorphous metal transformer cores. |
