Abstract
Abstract Apparatus for soldering the wires of the coil on the armature of an electric machine to the commutator thereof. The apparatus has a device for clamping, shifting and fixing the armature, a monophase magnet-hydrodynamic pump with a charger and a pan with molten solder. The magnetic core of the pump has the shape of a hollow cylinder and is externally chamfered at its upper end. The armature to be soldered is disposed vertically with the lower portion of its commutator telescoped within the upper end of the core. Around the core within the pan there is an annular charger disposed coaxially of the core, the charger having its lower end above the bottom of the pan and its upper end on the level of the upper chamfered end of the core so as to form between the upper end of the charger and the upper chamfered end of the core an annular frusto-conical channel with a discharge end directed toward the upper portion of the commutator and the parts of the wires adjacent thereto to solder the wires to the commutator.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
238 words
An apparatus for soldering the wires of the coil of an armature of an electric machine to the commutator thereof, comprising a pan containing molten solder, a monophase hydro-dynamic magnetic pump acting upon the molten solder, the pump having a vertically disposed magnetic core in the shape of a cylinder having a passage therein, the core having an externally chamfered upper end, the upper end of the passage in the core receiving the lower end of an armature there within with a first portion of the commutator on the armature disposed within the upper end of the passage in the core and a second portion of the armature with wires from the coil leading thereto disposed above the upper end of the core, an annular heat-resistant gasket disposed on the commutator between the first and second portions thereof and effecting a seal between the first portion of the commutator and the core, an annular charger surrounding the core disposed in the pan coaxial of the core, the charger having a lower end disposed above the bottom of the pan and a frusto-conical upper end cooperating with the chamfered upper end of the core to form with the chamfered upper end of the core a frusto-conical annular channel which discharges molten solder from its upper end unto the second portion of the commutator and the part of the wires adjacent thereto whereby to solder the wires to the commutator.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
238 words
An apparatus for soldering the wires of the coil of an armature of an electric machine to the commutator thereof, comprising a pan containing molten solder, a monophase hydro-dynamic magnetic pump acting upon the molten solder, the pump having a vertically disposed magnetic core in the shape of a cylinder having a passage therein, the core having an externally chamfered upper end, the upper end of the passage in the core receiving the lower end of an armature there within with a first portion of the commutator on the armature disposed within the upper end of the passage in the core and a second portion of the armature with wires from the coil leading thereto disposed above the upper end of the core, an annular heat-resistant gasket disposed on the commutator between the first and second portions thereof and effecting a seal between the first portion of the commutator and the core, an annular charger surrounding the core disposed in the pan coaxial of the core, the charger having a lower end disposed above the bottom of the pan and a frusto-conical upper end cooperating with the chamfered upper end of the core to form with the chamfered upper end of the core a frusto-conical annular channel which discharges molten solder from its upper end unto the second portion of the commutator and the part of the wires adjacent thereto whereby to solder the wires to the commutator.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
35 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the core extends downwardly to the bottom of the pan, and the pump has a coil surrounding the portion of the core beneath the bottom of the pan.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
29 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the charger has a broad lower end portion which gradually converges upwardly to the lower entrance end of the solder feeding channel.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
20 words
An apparatus according to claim 1, comprising an adjustable armature centering and supporting element within the passage in the core.
