Abstract
Abstract A method for the manufacture of plate-packs of coated metal laminas for electrical machinery and appliances in which the number of necessary manufacturing steps is reduced. After the laminas have been punched or stamped out, they are electrically upgraded by annealing and in the process are arranged at intervals with respect to one another and exposed to a reducing gaseous atmosphere. Then projections or depressions, known from punch-packing processes, which correspond to each other are punched into the laminas to connect them together. The laminas of a plate-pack are assembled into a unit by means of the interlocking projections and depressions prior to the annealing by an initial axial pressing step with an ensured axial minimum separation. After the annealing treatment, by means of a final axial pressing step, they are assembled into the final plate-pack form. The resulting plate-packs are particularly well suited for laminated stator or rotor packs for small electric motors or for electromagnetic switch gear.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim
136 words
In a method for the manufacture of a pack of coated metal laminas for electrical machinery and appliances in which the laminas, after being punched out, are arranged at a distance from one another, exposed in an annealing furnace to a reducing gaseous atmosphere and then assembled in the final plate-pack form, the improvement comprising the steps of: (a) punching or stamping projections and depressions, corresponding to one another, in the laminas for the mutual connection of the laminas to be assembled into a plate-pack; (b) assembling the laminas of the plate-pack by an initial axial pressing step, prior to annealing, into a unit with an ensured minimum axial separation by means of the interlocking projections and depressions; and (c) assemblying the laminas, after annealing into the final plate-pack form by a final axial pressing step.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
136 words
In a method for the manufacture of a pack of coated metal laminas for electrical machinery and appliances in which the laminas, after being punched out, are arranged at a distance from one another, exposed in an annealing furnace to a reducing gaseous atmosphere and then assembled in the final plate-pack form, the improvement comprising the steps of: (a) punching or stamping projections and depressions, corresponding to one another, in the laminas for the mutual connection of the laminas to be assembled into a plate-pack; (b) assembling the laminas of the plate-pack by an initial axial pressing step, prior to annealing, into a unit with an ensured minimum axial separation by means of the interlocking projections and depressions; and (c) assemblying the laminas, after annealing into the final plate-pack form by a final axial pressing step.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
46 words
The method according to claim 1, further comprising punching or stamping distance stops into the laminas, which forms a stable separation between the laminas during the initial pressing step, and can be bent back into the plane of their respective laminas during the final pressing step.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
27 words
The method according to claim 2, comprising arranging the distance stops of successive laminas in a plate-pack displaced with respect to one another in an alternating sequence.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
41 words
The method according to claim 2, comprising using tabs on the perimeter of a lamina, the inner side of which is radially connected with the lamina and the outer side of which is stamped free and bent out, as distance stops.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
41 words
The method according to claim 3, comprising using tabs on the perimeter of a lamina, the inner side of which is radially connected with the lamina and the outer side of which is stamped free and bent out, as distance stops.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
15 words
The method according claim 1, comprising coating the laminas of a plate-pack without any shift.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
29 words
The method according to claim 4, comprising subjecting the plate-pack to impregnation with self-curing casting resin after the plate-pack has been coated and pressed to give it plane-parallel faces.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
29 words
The method according to claim 5, comprising subjecting the plate-pack to impregnation with self-curing casting resin after the plate-pack has been coated and pressed to give it plane-parallel faces.
