Abstract
Abstract Magnetic cores are manufactured from blanks of magnetically permeable sheet material that have core preforms including strip elements that are partially separated from adjacent portions of the blank. Stabilizer strip elements are provided at opposite sides of the preform and are partially separated from adjacent portions of the blank. A tube is attached to one end of the blank and a weight to an opposite end of the blank. After removal of portions of the blank adjacent to the strip elements, the strip elements are wound upon the tube while tension is applied to the strip elements by virtue of the weight. After the winding, the strip elements of the core preform define a core configuration, and the remainder of the blank is removed.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
103 words
A blank for the manufacture of a magnetic core, comprising a sheet of magnetically permeable material having a magnetic core preform including strip elements that define an X-configuration and stabilizer strip elements at opposite sides of the X-configuration, respectively, and defining therewith two diamond configurations, said strip elements being partially separated from said blank by strip-shaped openings extending longitudinally along respective strip elements at opposite sides thereof, said diamond configurations including portions of said sheet adjoining said X-configuration at opposite sides thereof and having areas that are substantially greater than the areas of said strip elements at either side of said diamond configurations.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
103 words
A blank for the manufacture of a magnetic core, comprising a sheet of magnetically permeable material having a magnetic core preform including strip elements that define an X-configuration and stabilizer strip elements at opposite sides of the X-configuration, respectively, and defining therewith two diamond configurations, said strip elements being partially separated from said blank by strip-shaped openings extending longitudinally along respective strip elements at opposite sides thereof, said diamond configurations including portions of said sheet adjoining said X-configuration at opposite sides thereof and having areas that are substantially greater than the areas of said strip elements at either side of said diamond configurations.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
22 words
A blank in accordance with claim 1, wherein said blank has a pair of holes spaced along one end of the blank.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
24 words
A blank in accordance with claim 2, wherein each of said holes is elongated in a direction along said one end of the blank.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
24 words
A blank in accordance with claim 2, wherein an opposite end of the blank has an area adapted to be attached to a weight.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
82 words
A blank for the manufacture of a magnetic core, comprising a sheet of magnetically permeable material having a magnetic core preform including strip elements that define an X-configuration and stabilizer strip elements that define with the strip elements of the X-configuration two diamond configurations, said diamond configurations including portions of said sheet adjoining said X-configuration at opposite sides thereof, said strip elements being partially separated from adjoining portions of the blank by openings formed by the removal of material from said sheet.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
82 words
A blank for the manufacture of a magnetic core, comprising a sheet of magnetically permeable material having a magnetic core preform including strip elements that define an X-configuration and stabilizer strip elements that define with the strip elements of the X-configuration two diamond configurations, said diamond configurations including portions of said sheet adjoining said X-configuration at opposite sides thereof, said strip elements being partially separated from adjoining portions of the blank by openings formed by the removal of material from said sheet.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
27 words
A blank in accordance with claim 5, wherein said magnetically permeable material is Permalloy and said sheet has a thickness that is a fraction of a mil.
