First Claim
Patent Images
1. Method of making and completing a stator for a linear motor, comprising the steps ofproviding a plurality of core elements, each having at least one transverse groove, and arranging these elements in a line transversely to the grooves;
- placing a plurality of different, individual cables separately into the grooves in a meandering pattern as to each cable, whereby adjacent ones of the grooves receive a different one of the cables;
retaining the cable in the grooves to provide an elongated assembly comprised of the plural elements held together by the cables;
winding the assembly on a drum and transporting it to the carrier; and
subsequently affixing the elements as so assembled to a carrier.

Abstract
A long stator for a linear motor is assembled from many individual core elements provided with transverse grooves into which one places cable to be retained in the grooves so that they physically interconnect the stator elements and establish a chain-like assembly which can be, e.g., wound on drums and hauled to an installation site where the assembly is affixed to carriers along or on the track on which the movable part of the motor runs.
