Abstract
Abstract A heater construction for inductively heated rotating rolls which have inductive heater coils made up of a large number of turns of wire. The heater wire used for winding the coil has a high temperature insulation, preferably an inorganic material such as glass fiber, which may be impregnated with silicone in order to prevent abrasion as it is being wound. As each layer or wire is wound into coil form a coating of ceramic paste or ceramic material is applied to fill the interstitial spaces between the wires to provide a coil construction that has no voids within it that would permit relative movement between the wires to the extent that they could abrade and short out against each other.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
155 words
The method of constructing a coil for operation with heated rolls at high temperatures comprising the steps of providing a length of suitable heater wire having an inorganic insulation material surrounding said wire, helically wrapping said length of wire into loops arranged substantially in a layer about a central axis, filling the voids between each of the loops in the layer by forcing an insulating, hardening material against the loops until the voids are filled with said insulating, hardening material leaving a layer of said material over the loops in the layer, and adding additional layers of helically wound loops sequentially with each of the loops spaced from other loops and forcing said material into each layer to fill the voids between the loops of wire in each layer after each layer is wound and before another layer is wound, and to fill the voids between each of the layers with said insulating, hardening material.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
155 words
The method of constructing a coil for operation with heated rolls at high temperatures comprising the steps of providing a length of suitable heater wire having an inorganic insulation material surrounding said wire, helically wrapping said length of wire into loops arranged substantially in a layer about a central axis, filling the voids between each of the loops in the layer by forcing an insulating, hardening material against the loops until the voids are filled with said insulating, hardening material leaving a layer of said material over the loops in the layer, and adding additional layers of helically wound loops sequentially with each of the loops spaced from other loops and forcing said material into each layer to fill the voids between the loops of wire in each layer after each layer is wound and before another layer is wound, and to fill the voids between each of the layers with said insulating, hardening material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
19 words
The method as specified in claim 1 including the step of filling the voids with a ceramic cement material.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method of claim 2 including the further step of heating said coil after completing the winding steps to drive volatile materials from said ceramic cement material.
