Abstract

An apparatus is provided for winding a laminated core with a magnet coil for an electric motor in which a conductive, insulated coil wire is wound into one or multiple pole tip grooves of a winding surface of the laminated core. The apparatus comprises a holding device, a counter holding device, and one or multiple clamping elements. The holding device is configured to fix the laminated core to be wound during a winding process. The one or multiple clamping elements are configured to fix an insulating paper to one of the one or multiple pole tip grooves.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for winding a laminated core with a magnet coil with an apparatus including: (i) a holding device; (ii) a counter holding device; and (iii) one or multiple clamping elements, the method comprising:
inserting a laminated core having an insulating paper into the apparatus by inserting an outer surface of the laminated core into the holding device;
moving a winding support surface of the counter holding device toward an inner surface of the inserted laminated core along an axis;
winding a conductive, insulated coil wire about the axis into one or multiple pole tip grooves of a winding surface of the laminated core after moving the counter holding device toward the inner surface; and
fixing the insulating paper to a pole tip groove of the laminated core with the one or multiple clamping elements by fixing the insulating paper into at least one of (i) the holding device with a first clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements; and (ii) the counter holding device with a second clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements is configured to fix the insulating paper to the holding device.

3. The method as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first clamping element is provided on a face of one of the one or multiple pole tip grooves that is remote from a pole tip of the laminated core.

4. The method as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a second clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements is provided on the counter holding device and configured to fix the insulating paper.

5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the second clamping element is provided on a face of one of the one or multiple pole tip grooves that is facing the pole tip of the laminated core.

6. The method as claimed in claim 5 , wherein:
the counter holding device includes at least one winding support surface having at least one coil-shaping element and configured to be displaced or pivoted relative to a region of the winding surface of the laminated core;
the region of the at least one winding support surface protrudes out of the pole tip groove;
a winding position of the coil wire or a part region of the magnet coil protruding out of the pole tip groove is predefined during the winding step; and
the coil-shaping element defines a groove configured to guide the second clamping element to fix the insulating paper between the at least one winding support surface and the second clamping element on the face of the one or multiple pole tip grooves facing the pole tip such that the insulating paper is received.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the apparatus further comprises:
a guiding element provided on the holding device,
wherein the first clamping element is configured to be moved perpendicular to a surface of the insulating paper via the guiding element when the first clamping element is closed such that the insulating paper is fixed to the face of the pole tip groove facing the pole tip.

8. The method as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the insulating paper is fixed to the face of the pole tip groove facing the pole tip by closing a gap between the winding support surface and the second clamping element by pulling back the second clamping element in a direction that is remote from the laminated core.

9. The method as claimed in claim 8 , further comprising pulling back the second clamping element so as to fix the insulating paper by bringing together the holding device and the counter holding device.

10. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the apparatus comprises a heating device for baking at least one of the magnet coil and the laminated core.

11. The method as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising baking or partially baking at least one of the magnet coil and the laminated core after winding the conductive, insulated coil wire into the one or multiple pole tip grooves of the winding surface of the laminated core.

12. The method as claimed in claim 11 , further comprising powder coating at least one of the magnet coil and the laminated core after the baking or partially baking.

13. The method of claim 1 , wherein fixing the insulating paper to a pole tip groove comprises:
pushing a first end of the insulating paper toward a first of the one or multiple pole tip grooves with the first clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements.

14. The method of claim 13 , wherein the counter holding device comprises a third clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements, the method further comprising:
clamping a second end of the insulating paper with the third clamping element.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein pushing a first end of the insulating paper comprises:
closing the first clamping element using a guiding groove in the first clamping element.

16. The method of claim 15 , wherein closing the first clamping element comprises:
moving the first clamping element in a first direction toward the first of the one or multiple pole tip grooves; and
moving in a second direction after moving in the first direction, the second direction generally orthogonal to the first direction.

17. A method for winding a laminated core with a magnet coil with an apparatus including: (i) a holding device; (ii) a counter holding device; and (iii) one or multiple clamping elements, the method comprising:
inserting a laminated core having an insulating paper into the apparatus by inserting an outer surface of the laminated core into the holding device;
moving a winding support surface of the counter holding device toward an inner surface of the inserted laminated core along an axis;
winding a conductive, insulated coil wire about the axis into one or multiple pole tip grooves of a winding surface of the laminated core after moving the counter holding device toward the inner surface; and
fixing the insulating paper to a pole tip groove of the laminated core with the one or multiple clamping elements by pushing a first end of the insulating paper toward a first of the one or multiple pole tip grooves with a first clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the counter holding device comprises a second clamping element of the one or multiple clamping elements, the method further comprising:
clamping a second end of the insulating paper with the second clamping element.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein pushing a first end of the insulating paper comprises:
closing the first clamping element using a guiding groove in the first clamping element.

20. The method of claim 19 , wherein closing the first clamping element comprises:
moving the first clamping element in a first direction toward the first of the one or multiple pole tip grooves; and
moving in a second direction after moving in the first direction, the second direction generally orthogonal to the first direction.
