Abstract
Abstract In a coil winding machine for producing cylindrical coils each having a plurality of coil layers, an insulating bobbin is detachably mounted on a coil winding spindle driven by a driving source. A coil wire supplying device supplies a coil wire continuously onto the bobbin so as to form the coil layers, and an insulating tape supplying device continuously supplies an insulating tape over each coil layer so as to form tape windings partly overlapping each other in the longitudinal direction.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
189 words
A coil winding machine for manufacturing a multilayer coil having a number of coil layers and interlayer insulator layers made of an insulating tape, which machine comprises a coil winding spindle detachably supporting an insulating bobbin, a driving device for driving said coil winding spindle, first and second feed screws extending in parallel with said bobbin, said first feed screw being driven by said driving device through a change gear containing a reversible clutch, said second feed screw being driven by a servomotor, a wire guide and tape guide mounted on said first and second feed screws respectively, first and second position detectors for detecting the positions of said wire guide and said tape guide along said first and second feed screws, and a control circuit for controlling operation of said servomotor based on the output of said first and second position detectors, said control circuit comprising a function generator connected to an output of said first position detector, a subtracting circuit connected to deliver a difference signal between outputs of said function generator and said second position detector, and means for supplying the difference signal to said servomotor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
189 words
A coil winding machine for manufacturing a multilayer coil having a number of coil layers and interlayer insulator layers made of an insulating tape, which machine comprises a coil winding spindle detachably supporting an insulating bobbin, a driving device for driving said coil winding spindle, first and second feed screws extending in parallel with said bobbin, said first feed screw being driven by said driving device through a change gear containing a reversible clutch, said second feed screw being driven by a servomotor, a wire guide and tape guide mounted on said first and second feed screws respectively, first and second position detectors for detecting the positions of said wire guide and said tape guide along said first and second feed screws, and a control circuit for controlling operation of said servomotor based on the output of said first and second position detectors, said control circuit comprising a function generator connected to an output of said first position detector, a subtracting circuit connected to deliver a difference signal between outputs of said function generator and said second position detector, and means for supplying the difference signal to said servomotor.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
189 words
A coil winding machine as set forth in claim 1 wherein said function generaor generates, during a forward run of the tape guide along said second feed screw, a first output signal which is equal to zero when the output (Y) of the first position detector is equal to or less than a predetermined value (C 1 ), but is varied in accordance with a function of the output (Y), varying at first slowly and later quickly to an ultimate value (X 1 ) when the output (Y) is larger than the predetermined value (C 1 ), and during a rearward run of the tape guide along said second feed screw, said function generator generates a second output signal which is equal to the ultimate value (X 1 ) when the value of the output (Y) is equal to or less than the predetermined value (C 1 ), but is varied to zero in accordance with a function of the output (Y) similar to that in the forward run of the tape guide when the value of the output (Y) is larger than the predetermined value (C 1 ).
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
96 words
A coil winding machine as set forth in claim 2 wherein said first and second position detectors are pulse generators, and said function generator comprises an n-stage counter where n is an integer larger than one, for counting the output pulses of said first position detector, a latch circuit which inverts the output of the counter depending on whether the latch circuit receives a carry output or a barrow output from said counter, and a calculating circuit connected to receive outputs of the counter and said latch circuit for delivering said first and second output signals.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
76 words
A coil winding machine as set forth in claim 3 wherein said subtracting circuit comprises a counter connected to count the number of output pulses of said second position detector, a subtractor for subtracting a count of said counter from an output of said calculating circuit, and a D/A converter for converting an output of said subtractor into an analog value adapted to control said servomotor in a direction to reduce the output of said subtractor.
