Method of making a multiple open turn lap wound dynamoelectric machine
First Claim
1. A method for placing a winding on an armature of a four pole lap wound direct current machine, said armature including a plurality of commutator segments and a laminated core with a plurality of slots formed therein, comprising:
- free forming a continuous elongated conductor having two ends into a plurality of open turns with each said turns having two sides, said formed conductor having substantially a final shape of said conductor on said core and having four said sides spaced to engage four different slots in said core spaced 90°
apart;
thenspreading said sides apart and positioning said formed conductor about said armature core;
thenpositioning said four sides in said four different slots in said core; and
thenattaching said conductor ends to two different commutator segments disposed substantially adjacent each other.

Abstract
Lap wound direct-current dynamoelectric machines may allow excessive currents to flow in single turn windings when such machines are operated at relatively low speeds and/or relatively high voltages, and plural turn windings cannot be practically formed from heavy gauge wire, or from heavy gauge rectangular wire or from rectangular wire, to efficiently fill armature slots. A plural turn, preformed winding is disclosed having two ends for connection to commutator segments substantially adjacent each other on the armature, and with at least four sides defining at least two open turns, for engaging slots in the armature core which are spaced substantially 90° apart for a four pole machine. A three open turn winding is also disclosed. The number of open turns is limited only by space available in the armature coil slots.
