Abstract
Abstract Apparatus for fastening an air gap winding for electric machines having a large power rating, such as turbo generators, including a stator lamination stack formed of magnetic lamination segments, a mounting body formed of non-magnetic lamination segments having teeth with slots formed therebetween, the mounting body being welded at a seam to the stator lamination stack to form common lamination segments, winding bars being held in the slots and extending beyond the teeth into the mechanical air gap, pressure strips disposed in longitudinal direction of the slots pretensioning the winding bars in radial direction, clamping screws being radially disposed in the vicinity of the slot teeth and holding the pressure strips, and abutments anchoring the clamping screws in the vicinity of the stator lamination stack.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
146 words
Apparatus for fastening an air gap winding for electric machines having a large power rating, such as turbo generators, comprising a stator lamination stack formed of magnetic lamination segments, a mounting body formed of non-magnetic lamination segments having teeth with slots formed therebetween, said non-magnetic mounting body being integral with said magnetic stator lamination stack forming common homogeneous lamination segments by welding said teeth in the regions of the base lines thereof to said stator lamination stack segments in the circumferential direction, winding bars being held in said slots and extending beyond said teeth into the mechanical air gap, pressure strips disposed in longitudinal direction of said slots pretensioning said winding bars in radial direction, clamping screws being radially disposed in the vicinity of said slot teeth and holding said pressure strips, and abutments anchoring said clamping screws in the vicinity of said stator lamination stack.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
146 words
Apparatus for fastening an air gap winding for electric machines having a large power rating, such as turbo generators, comprising a stator lamination stack formed of magnetic lamination segments, a mounting body formed of non-magnetic lamination segments having teeth with slots formed therebetween, said non-magnetic mounting body being integral with said magnetic stator lamination stack forming common homogeneous lamination segments by welding said teeth in the regions of the base lines thereof to said stator lamination stack segments in the circumferential direction, winding bars being held in said slots and extending beyond said teeth into the mechanical air gap, pressure strips disposed in longitudinal direction of said slots pretensioning said winding bars in radial direction, clamping screws being radially disposed in the vicinity of said slot teeth and holding said pressure strips, and abutments anchoring said clamping screws in the vicinity of said stator lamination stack.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
34 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said slot teeth have bases in the vicinity of said stator lamination stack, and said welded seam is disposed in vicinity of said bases of said slot teeth.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
Apparatus according to claim 1 or 2, wherein said magnetic lamination segments are formed of high-silicon sheets and said non-magnetic lamination segments are formed of austenetic sheets.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
26 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said abutments are in the form of axially-disposed bolts having transverse tapped holes formed therein for attaching said clamping screws.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
26 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, wherein at least two winding bars are held side by side in each of said slots formed in said mounting body.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
26 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, including insulating biasing material disposed between said winding bars and said pressure strips for supplying said pretensioning to said winding bars.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
40 words
Apparatus according to claim 1, including heads on said clamping screws, holding strips disposed between said heads and said pressure strips, and cup springs disposed between said heads and said holding strips for supplying said pretensioning to said winding bars.
