Apparatus of inserting wedges into the slots of a magnetic core

摘要

An improved pusher blade and wedge magazine assembly for use in a coil inserting machine and cooperative therewith for inserting the wedges into the elongated slots of a dynamoelectric machine core. The assembly provides pusher blades which are interlockingly and slidably engaged with the wedge magazine during all phases of operation of the machine. The wedge is conjointly rotatably by reason of an operative connection therebetween to eliminate torque or other stresses on the pusher blades. The assembly obviates misalignment between the wedge magazine and the pusher blades and thereby damage or destruction of the pusher blade assembly which can result form such misalignment.
