Abstract

Provided are a method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets, capable of efficiently separating the band-shaped stator core sheets having engaged magnetic pole pieces, and a die apparatus used therefor.
The method comprises placing tips of magnetic pole pieces 12, 13 of first and second band-shaped stator core sheets 10, 11 on inner peripheries of yoke pieces 16, 15 , a slot punching step for forming gaps of the magnetic pole pieces 12, 13 , a shear-cutting step for cutting the tips of the magnetic pole pieces 12, 13 from the inner peripheries of the yoke pieces 16, 15 , respectively, a correction step for returning the magnetic pole pieces 12, 13 bent by the shear-cutting step to their original states, and a separation step for separating the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets 10, 11 with the magnetic pole pieces 12, 13 pressed back by the correction step.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets by performing blank layout such that a magnetic strip material includes at least two rows of first and second band-shaped stator core sheets with magnetic pole pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets engaged with one another and thereafter separating the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets from the magnetic strip material by press work, the method comprising:
placing tips of respective magnetic pole pieces of the first band-shaped stator core sheet on an inner periphery of a yoke piece between adjacent ones of the magnetic pole pieces of the second band-shaped stator core sheet, and placing tips of the respective magnetic pole pieces of the second band-shaped stator core sheet on an inner periphery of a yoke piece between adjacent ones of the magnetic pole pieces of the first band-shaped stator core sheet;
a slot punching step for punching out slots to form gaps of the respective magnetic pole pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets;
a shear-cutting step for shear-cutting the tips of the respective magnetic pole pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets from the inner peripheries of the yoke pieces;
a pressing correction step for returning the magnetic pole pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets having been bent by the shear-cutting step to their original states; and
a separation step for separating the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets with the magnetic pole pieces having been pressed back by the pressing correction step,
wherein the tips of the respective magnetic pole pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets are in contact with the inner peripheries of the yoke pieces, and
wherein the separation step is performed after successively performing the shear-cutting step and the pressing correction step.

2. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 1 , wherein, in the separation step, the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets are gradually separated vertically by an upper die separation part provided to an upper die and a lower die separation part provided to a lower die.

3. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 2 , wherein, the upper die separation part is provided with a first projection adapted to be brought into contact from above with the first band-shaped stator core sheet, and the lower die separation part is provided with a second projection adapted to be brought into contact from below with the second band-shaped stator core sheet.

4. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 3 , wherein an undersurface of the first projection is brought into contact with either one or both of the magnetic pole pieces and the yoke piece of the first band-shaped stator core sheet, and an upper surface of the second projection is brought into contact with either one or both of the magnetic pole pieces and the yoke piece of the second band-shaped stator core sheet.

5. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 3 , wherein the first and second projections have chamfers on upstream sides thereof to be brought into contact with the magnetic pole pieces so as to avoid catching on the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets being conveyed.

6. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 3 , wherein the undersurface of the first projection is gradually sloped downward toward a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets.

7. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 6 , wherein the upper surface of the second projection is gradually sloped downward at an angle smaller than an inclination angle of the undersurface of the first projection toward the downstream side in the conveyance direction of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets.

8. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 2 , wherein the respective yoke pieces of the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets are supported by lifters provided to the lower die.

9. The method for manufacturing band-shaped stator core sheets according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic strip material includes the first and second band-shaped stator core sheets arranged in four rows.
