Abstract

Abstract An exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch and a method for manufacturing same, in which a member having a cylindrical portion is secured to the end surface of a yoke of a doughnut or annular form to thereby provide a coil supporting portion which is open in the radial direction and has a U-shaped cross section, and then a cnductor is directly wound through the medium of an insulating material around the aforesaid cylindrical portion, after which the exposing portions of the coil formed of the conductor are insulated according to a resin-impregnating treatment or varnish immersion treatment, thereby providing an exciting device for an electromagnetic clutch.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 107 words
An exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, comprising: a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit; a supporting member, around which is wound a conductor to give a coil therearound; a stator formed by securing said yoke member and said supporting member together and having a groove which is open in the radial direction, said stator having a U-shaped cross-section; a first insulating layer formed on the inner surface of said groove provided in said stator; an exciting coil placed on said supporting member through the medium of said insulating layer; and a second insulating layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 107 words
An exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, comprising: a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit; a supporting member, around which is wound a conductor to give a coil therearound; a stator formed by securing said yoke member and said supporting member together and having a groove which is open in the radial direction, said stator having a U-shaped cross-section; a first insulating layer formed on the inner surface of said groove provided in said stator; an exciting coil placed on said supporting member through the medium of said insulating layer; and a second insulating layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 117 words
An exciting device for use in electromagnetic clutch, comprising: a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit and having a doughnut or annular form; a non-magnetic supporting member, around which a conductor is to be wound, said supporting member having a groove which is open in the radial direction thereof and a U-shaped cross section; a stator formed by securing said supporting member to the end surface of said yoke member; a first insulating layer formed on the inner surface of said groove in said supporting member; an exciting coil placed around said coil supporting member through the medium of said insulating layer; and a second insulating layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 117 words
An exciting device for use in electromagnetic clutch, comprising: a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit and having a doughnut or annular form; a non-magnetic supporting member, around which a conductor is to be wound, said supporting member having a groove which is open in the radial direction thereof and a U-shaped cross section; a stator formed by securing said supporting member to the end surface of said yoke member; a first insulating layer formed on the inner surface of said groove in said supporting member; an exciting coil placed around said coil supporting member through the medium of said insulating layer; and a second insulating layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 5
Independent Claim 92 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, comprising the steps of: securing a coil supporting member to a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit to thereby provide a stator having a U-shaped cross section to provide a groove which opens in the radial direction thereof; winding a conductor directly through the medium of an insulating layer around the inner surface of said groove in said stator to provide an exciting coil thereon; and forming an insulating layer on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 6
Independent Claim 92 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, comprising the steps of: securing a coil supporting member to a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit to thereby provide a stator having a U-shaped cross section to provide a groove which opens in the radial direction thereof; winding a conductor directly through the medium of an insulating layer around the inner surface of said groove in said stator to provide an exciting coil thereon; and forming an insulating layer on the outer peripheral surface of said exciting coil.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 51 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, as set forth in claim 3, wherein an insulating tape is wound around the outer peripheral surface of an exciting coil, and an insulating film is formed on said outer peripheral surface according to a varnish impregnating process.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 82 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch, as set forth in claim 3, wherein said method further comprises the steps of providing a hole for use in taking out the end portion of a coil, in a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit; extending said first insulating layer to the inner peripheral surface of said hole; inserting said terminal in said hole to thereby connect the starting and terminating ends of said coil to said terminal.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 76 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch as set forth in claim 3, wherein said method comprises the steps of: providing a hole for use in taking out the end portion of a coil, in a yoke member forming a magnetic circuit; securing into said hole a terminal member which has its terminal molded with resin beforehand; and connecting the starting and terminating ends of said coil to said terminal.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 47 words
A method for manufacturing an exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch as set forth in claim 6, wherein said method comprises the steps of providing two terminals on said terminal member; and connecting the starting and terminating ends of said coil to said terminals, respectively.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 59 words
An exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch as claimed in claim 2, wherein said second insulating layer formed on the outer peripheral surface of the exciting coil comprises an insulating tape wound around an outer peripheral portion of the exciting coil, and a coat of an insulating resing applied to an outer surface of said insulating tape.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 75 words
An exciting device for use in an electromagnetic clutch as claimed in claim 2, further comprising at least one hole formed in the yoke member, a film representing an extension of said first insulating layer and covering an inner surface of said at least one hole, and a terminal member inserted in said hole, whereby starting and terminating ends of said exciting coil can be connected to an external power source through said terminal member.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 65 words
