Apparatus for winding and terminating dynamo electric machine cores
First Claim
1. An apparatus for winding and termination of coils wound with at least one electric wire on a core of a dynamo electric machine;
- the core having a longitudinal axis and a groove at an end of the core for receiving the at least one electric wire on a termination path that extends around the longitudinal axis;
said apparatus comprising;
a wire dispenser;
the wire dispenser having a holding structure for passage of the at least one electric wire and a wire exit from where the at least one electric wire reaches the core;
a first motor for translating the wire dispenser with respect to the core during winding or termination of the coils;
wherein the first motor translates the holding structure along the core for positioning the wire exit adjacent the end of the core where the groove is located;
a second motor for rotating the core around a rotation axis for winding the core; and
a wire deflector positioned adjacent the end of the core where the groove is located;
the wire deflector intercepting and aligning the at least one electric wire with the groove.

Abstract
An apparatus terminates and winds coils of a core of a dynamo electric machine. The coils are formed from at least an electric wire and the core has a longitudinal axis. The apparatus includes a wire dispenser which translates and rotates with respect to a core to wind the coils. At least a stretch of wire extends from the coil; and the stretch of wire includes a portion for a termination connection to a termination structure of the core, such as a tang terminal. The core has a groove at an end to receive at least a wire in the path of the wire to terminate the coils. The apparatus comprises a wire deflector positioned adjacent the end of the core, where the groove is located, in order to intercept and align the wire with the groove. The apparatus avoids waste cut wire.
