Abstract
Abstract An insulated field pole coil assembly for a dynamoelectric machine characterized by including an open-weave glass tape wound in half-lapped fashion around the energizing coil of magnet wire on the pole and coated with a continuous, void-free, crack-resistant dipping compound that is supported by the strands of the tape. In the method of the invention a coil is wound with lapped open-weave tape and immersed in dipping compound which is supported by the tape strands while the compound is cured, and thereafter, to form a crack-resistant, continuous insulating coating around the coil.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
119 words
An insulated coil assembly for a field pole of a dynamoelectric machine, said coil assembly comprising; a coil of conductive wire coated with an insulating varnish and arranged to define a multi-side window for receiving therein a portion of a field pole, a lapped layer of open-weave glass fiber tape positioned snuggly around each of the respective sides of said coil to entirely cover the coil, and a substantially void free, continuous, crack-resistant, thermoset dipping compound that is thermally stable in a range of temperature from -50° C. to 150° C., forming a cured solid ringing coating that is generally uniformly distributed over the surface of the coil and is supported in a generally uniform thickness by said tape.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
119 words
An insulated coil assembly for a field pole of a dynamoelectric machine, said coil assembly comprising; a coil of conductive wire coated with an insulating varnish and arranged to define a multi-side window for receiving therein a portion of a field pole, a lapped layer of open-weave glass fiber tape positioned snuggly around each of the respective sides of said coil to entirely cover the coil, and a substantially void free, continuous, crack-resistant, thermoset dipping compound that is thermally stable in a range of temperature from -50° C. to 150° C., forming a cured solid ringing coating that is generally uniformly distributed over the surface of the coil and is supported in a generally uniform thickness by said tape.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
An invention as defined in claim 1 wherein said lapped layer of tape consists of a single half-lapped layer of substantially uniformly spaced turns of tape.
