Abstract

There is provided a method for manufacturing a laminated iron core. The method includes receiving a plurality of block iron cores which are temporarily laminated and ejected from a die, each block iron core being formed by laminating a plurality of iron core pieces that are blanked from a thin plate workpiece using the die, individually separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores by a block iron core separating unit, and rotating and laminating each of the separated block iron cores by a rotating and laminating unit in order different from order of lamination of the temporarily laminated block iron cores before separation in a place different from a location of the die.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for manufacturing a laminated iron core, the method comprising:
receiving a plurality of block iron cores which are temporarily laminated and ejected from a die, each block iron core being formed by laminating a plurality of iron core pieces that are blanked from a thin plate workpiece using the die;
individually separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores by a block iron core separating unit; and
rotating and laminating each of the separated block iron cores by a rotating and laminating unit in a place different from a location of the die.

2. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 1 , wherein each of the individually separated block iron cores is sequentially arranged on a disk-shaped placement table rotatable around a shaft center at intervals in a circumferential direction of the placement table.

3. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 1 , further comprising:
inspecting a lamination thickness of each of the block iron cores by a lamination thickness inspecting unit between separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores and rotating and laminating the separated block iron cores.

4. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 1 , further comprising:
inspecting a shape of each of the block iron cores by a shape inspecting unit between separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores and rotating and laminating the separated block iron cores.

5. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 1 , further comprising:
reversing fronts and backs of a unit of the plurality of temporarily laminated block iron cores by a reversing unit before separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores.

6. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 5 , further comprising:
removing burrs projected at a back side of each of the block iron cores by a burr removing unit between separating the temporarily laminated block iron cores and rotating and laminating the separated block iron cores.

7. The method for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 1 , wherein each of the separated block iron cores is rotated and laminated in an order different from an order of lamination of the unseparated temporarily laminated block iron cores.

8. An apparatus for manufacturing a laminated iron core, the apparatus comprising:
a block iron core separating unit that is provided in an upstream side and receives a plurality of block iron cores which are temporarily laminated and ejected from a die, each block iron core being formed by laminating a plurality of iron core pieces that are blanked from a thin plate workpiece using the die, wherein the block iron core separating unit individually separates the temporarily laminated block iron cores; and
a rotating and laminating unit that is provided in a downstream side of the block iron core separating unit and rotates and laminates each of the separated block iron cores in a place different from a location of the die.

9. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 8 , further comprising:
a disk-shaped placement table rotatable around a shaft center, wherein each of the block iron cores individually separated by the block iron core separating unit can be arranged on the placement table at intervals in a circumferential direction.

10. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 8 , further comprising:
a lamination thickness inspecting unit that inspects a lamination thickness of each of the block iron cores individually separated by the block iron core separating unit in a downstream side of the block iron core separating unit and an upstream side of the rotating and laminating unit.

11. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 8 , further comprising:
a shape inspecting unit that inspects a shape of each of the block iron cores individually separated by the block iron core separating unit in a downstream side of the block iron core separating unit and an upstream side of the rotating and laminating unit.

12. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 8 , further comprising:
a reversing unit that reverses fronts and backs of a unit of the plurality of temporarily laminated block iron cores in an upstream side of the block iron core separating unit.

13. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 12 , further comprising:
a burr removing unit that removes burrs projected at a back side of each of the block iron cores individually separated by the block iron core separating unit in a downstream side of the block iron core separating unit and an upstream side of the rotating and laminating unit.

14. The apparatus for manufacturing the laminated iron core according to claim 8 , wherein the rotating and laminating unit rotates and laminates each of the separated block iron cores in an order different from an order of lamination of the unseparated temporarily laminated block iron cores.
