Abstract

Abstract A mold for producing anisotropic permanent magnets consists of a cavity defined by a thin-walled tubular lining element closely surrounded by an electrical field coil, reinforced by a metal ring enclosing the field coil so that a magnetic field of a given strength can be generated in the cavity with less power than in the case of the conventional field coil normally positioned at a relatively greater distance from the interior of the cavity. The lining element can be composed of a non-metallic material such as a ceramic, or sintered Al 2 O 3 .

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 19
Claim 1
Independent Claim 87 words
A mold for use with at least one reciprocatory ram for the production of anisotropic permanent magnets from permanent magnet powder under the influence of a magnetic field, said mold having a cavity to receive said ram for compacting said particles within said cavity under pressure, said cavity being defined by tubular relatively thin-walled lining, a radially incompressible electrical field coil means closely surrounding said lining, and means for reinforcing said field coil means and said lining against excessive radially outwardly directed forces generated within said cavity.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 87 words
A mold for use with at least one reciprocatory ram for the production of anisotropic permanent magnets from permanent magnet powder under the influence of a magnetic field, said mold having a cavity to receive said ram for compacting said particles within said cavity under pressure, said cavity being defined by tubular relatively thin-walled lining, a radially incompressible electrical field coil means closely surrounding said lining, and means for reinforcing said field coil means and said lining against excessive radially outwardly directed forces generated within said cavity.
