Abstract

Abstract A magnetic slot wedge inserted in each slot of a stator core of a dynamo-electric machine so as to close an opening of each slot for preventing coils embedded in each slot from getting out of each slot is disclosed. The slot wedge includes a first thin non-magnetic sheet such as a polyester film having the thickness of several ten microns or an aromatic aramid paper, an amorphous sheet bonded to one of two faces of the first non-magnetic sheet opposite the other face facing a coil side in the condition that the wedge is inserted in each slot, and a second thin non-magnetic sheet bonded to the amorphous sheet so as to cover it. Each non-magnetic sheet has such dimensions that each non-magnetic sheet is projected from both ends and both side edges of the amorphous sheet.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 126 words
A double laminated sheet type magnetic slot wedge dimensioned for insertion in a slot of a stator core of a dynamo-electric machine so as to close an opening of the slot for preventing a coil embedded in the slot from getting out of the slot, the wedge comprising a thin flexible non-magnetic sheet having a first face and a second face opposite the first face and a flexible amorphous sheet bonded to the first face of the non-magnetic sheet, wherein the second face of the non-magnetic sheet faces the coil when the wedge is inserted in the slot, and wherein the flexible amorphous sheet is an alloy consisting of a first material comprising cobalt, iron, nickel, and niobium, and a second material comprising silicon and boron.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 126 words
A double laminated sheet type magnetic slot wedge dimensioned for insertion in a slot of a stator core of a dynamo-electric machine so as to close an opening of the slot for preventing a coil embedded in the slot from getting out of the slot, the wedge comprising a thin flexible non-magnetic sheet having a first face and a second face opposite the first face and a flexible amorphous sheet bonded to the first face of the non-magnetic sheet, wherein the second face of the non-magnetic sheet faces the coil when the wedge is inserted in the slot, and wherein the flexible amorphous sheet is an alloy consisting of a first material comprising cobalt, iron, nickel, and niobium, and a second material comprising silicon and boron.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 25 words
A magnetic slot wedge according to claim 1, wherein the amorphous sheet has a dimension approximately as large as a longitudinal length of the slot.
