Abstract

Abstract In winding the stator of a long stator linear motor without iron, the conductors of the traveling wave winding in the stator are designed as round jacketed lines which are fixed to a non-magnetic winding support by cross-bars and retained in place by hardenable non-magnetic material. The conductors of the traveling wave winding are approximately flush with the outside surface of the stator which is disposed opposite an exciter magnet on a moving vehicle.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim 158 words
A linear motor stator adapted to be disposed on a track and to cooperate with a vehicle containing an excitation winding comprising: (a) a form for the stator for defining a space having a preselected cross-sectional configuration suitable for placement on a track roadbed; (b) a plurality of electrically conductive lines, each such line having at least one electrically conductive element surrounded by an insulating jacket; (c) non-magnetic retention means in said form for fixing each of said lines individually within said space defined by said form in a position which produces a substantially flat traveling wave stator winding, portions of each of said lines being disposed adjacent and parallel to a surface plane of said form; and (d) a non-magnetic material which is poured while in a fluid state into said form so as to occupy the remaining space defined therein, and which hardens to further fix said lines in said position fixed by said retention means.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 158 words
A linear motor stator adapted to be disposed on a track and to cooperate with a vehicle containing an excitation winding comprising: (a) a form for the stator for defining a space having a preselected cross-sectional configuration suitable for placement on a track roadbed; (b) a plurality of electrically conductive lines, each such line having at least one electrically conductive element surrounded by an insulating jacket; (c) non-magnetic retention means in said form for fixing each of said lines individually within said space defined by said form in a position which produces a substantially flat traveling wave stator winding, portions of each of said lines being disposed adjacent and parallel to a surface plane of said form; and (d) a non-magnetic material which is poured while in a fluid state into said form so as to occupy the remaining space defined therein, and which hardens to further fix said lines in said position fixed by said retention means.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 46 words
A linear motor stator according to claim 1 wherein there are further provided a plurality of said forms and precast slabs for providing at least a lower portion of respective ones of said forms, said slabs being lined up on said track roadbed as lost forms.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 23 words
A linear motor stator according to claim 2 wherein said lines are continuously formed into said stator winding on a prealigned winding support.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 35 words
A linear motor stator according to claim 1 wherein said non-magnetic retention means for said lines comprise cross-bars disposed side-by-side in said form, for forming slots in which respective portions of said lines are positioned.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 32 words
A linear motor stator according to claim 4 further including projections in said cross-bars at preselected intervals, said projections narrowing said slots for securing said portions of said lines in said form.
