Winding support for a rotary electrical component
First Claim
1. A winding support for a rotary electrical component, the rotary electrical component being rotatable about an axis of rotation and having poles extending in the direction of the axis of rotation and a plurality of windings which are wound on the poles so as to project beyond axis ends of the poles, the windings projecting beyond the axial ends of the poles being spaced apart in the direction of the axis of rotation of the rotary electrical component, the winding support comprising a first part formed from insulative material having spaced apart fingers to be positioned in respective spaces between the windings where the windings project beyond an axial end of one said pole and a second part to be fastened to the first part for holding the windings in place relative to the first part thereby securing the windings against movement relative to each other in the direction of the axis of rotation.

Abstract
A winding support for a rotary electrical component has axially extending poles and a plurality of windings which are wound on the poles so as to project beyond axial ends of the poles spaced apart in the direction of an axis of rotation of the rotary electrical component. The winding support comprises a first part formed from insulative material having spaced apart fingers to be positioned in respective spaces between the windings projecting beyond an axial end of one said pole and a second part arranged to be fastened to the first part for holding the windings in place relative to the first part. The first part preferably comprises a separator member having the spaced apart fingers thereon and a support member for the separator member arranged outboard of and formed of a different material from the separator member.
