Abstract
Abstract An electric motor rotor assembly and method of forming the flat rotor wherein an inner tubular casing and a commutator are molded in a first mold thereby forming between the casing and the commutator a molded resin intermediate section. After the so molded commutator is removed from the first mold, the windings for the rotor are first cold crimped and then hot crimped to the commutator thereby breaking the insulation and providing a good electrical connection. After the windings are attached to the commutator, it can then be tested to check the windings for electrical continuity. After the testing, the assembly is placed into a second mold where resin is injected about the windings forming a resin enclosing sheath.

A method of mounting and casting flat rotors of electric motors, comprising the following successive operational steps: first, angularly positioning within a first mold, an inner tubular casing and a commutator having segments, wherein the angular positioning of said tubular casing in said first mold is performed by at least one indexing finger which is present in said first mold, said at least one indexing finger of said first mold traverses at least one orifice in said inner tubular casing, and another at least one indexing finger goes between said segments of said commutator so as to assure the proper orientation of said commutator in said first mold in relation to said inner tubular casing; second, pouring a suitable resin into said first mold between said tubular casing and said commutator forming a molded commutator; third, crimping a winding coil-by-coil onto said molded commutator; fourth, separating said commutator segments of said molded commutator and windings; fifth, angularly positioning within a second mold, said molded commutator and windings, wherein the angular positioning of said molded commutator and windings in said second mold is performed by at least one indexing key which is present in said second mold and which fits between said coils to assure proper orientation of said coils in relation to at least one indexing finger in said second mold for positioning said inner tubular casing, whereby said two angular positioning steps ensures correct adjustment of said commutator because said segments of said commutator are correctly positioned with respect to said tubular casing in said first mold and said windings are correctly positioned with respect to said tubular casing in said second mold so that said windings and said commutator segments are correctly positioned with respect to one another; and sixth, pouring suitable resin into said second mold, so as to coat said windings with resin.
