Claim 1
Independent Claim
280 words
In a device for the production, transfer and installation of interconnected coils into the stator of an electrical machine, the interconnected coils being machine-fabricated in sets by means of semi-circular winding formers with wire chambers stepped in correct polarity and the formers being arranged axially extractably on carrying bars which are secured parallel to the rotational axis on rotary arms of a winding machine such that the formers can be turned after release of a rotational lock, with the winding diameters of the formers being equivalent to the chord lengths between the corresponding stator grooves, and the coil sets taken off the formers being installed into the stator by means of elastically spreadable installation strips inserted in groups between the groove heads, the improvement wherein said formers comprise two mutually opposite former sets, each having a mid-axis, a sectional plane and a step profile, with a former-free space being provided adjacent each former set, and said device further comprises a support element associated with at least one said former set for dimensionally stable transfer of a coil set from the winding machine to the stator, said support element extending radially in the mid-axis of said one former set and perpendicular to the sectional plane of said one former set and protruding into the former-free space adjacent said one former set, said support element having supporting faces which are in mirror symmetry with the step profile of said one former set and having step radii which are equivalent to the radii of the wire chambers of said one former set, and said supporting faces being arcs concentric to the axis of the coil windings and having arc lengths of about 10°.

Claim 3
Dependent Claim
37 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the supporting faces are provided on either side with a raised holding edge (15), the height of which is approximately equivalent to the thickness of the coil phase winding.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
35 words
A device as claimed in claim 2, wherein, for adaptation of the winding radii to the said one chord lengths (Sa, Sb, Sc) between the corresponding stator grooves (21), the former set is adjustably designed.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
49 words
A device as claimed in claim 3, further comprising a semi-circular insertion dish (25), the inside radius of which is adapted to the radius of one wire chamber and which can be inserted into the one wire chamber (10) and can be connected positively, but exchangeably, to the latter.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
29 words
A device as claimed in claim 4, wherein the insertion dish (25) forms a coil chamber provided with chamber walls to establish the width of the coil phase winding.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
100 words
A device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the support element (31) is provided with a receiver (32) which runs parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the one former set (30), can be inserted into the body of the one former set and has a first receiving bore for the former carrying bar (3), and wherein the support element is provided outside the former set with a second receiving bore (36) which, in relation to the former mid-plane, is arranged symmetrically to the first receiving bore and is aligned for the positive reception of a second carrying rod (37).
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
22 words
A device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the receiver (32) is connected positively, but detachably, to the one former set (30).
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
41 words
A device as claimed in claim 6, wherein the second carrying rod (37) is provided at its inserting-side end with a driving bolt (39) which is moved automatically into a transverse position in the inside final position of the carrying bar.
