STATOR ASSEMBLY APPARATUS AND STATOR ASSEMBLY METHOD: abstract simplified (18171309)

• This abstract for appeared for patent application number 18171309 Titled 'STATOR ASSEMBLY APPARATUS AND STATOR ASSEMBLY METHOD'

Simplified Explanation

The provided apparatus is designed to assemble a stator, which is a component of an electric motor. The apparatus includes several guide members that can be inserted into and removed from the electrically-insulating members of the stator core. These guide members are arranged in a radial direction within the slots of the stator. The apparatus also includes a presser that presses the coil of the stator outward. A controller is used to control the movement of the guide members. When the coil comes into contact with or gets close to the guide member that is positioned most radially inside the electrically-insulating members, the controller causes that guide member to move and withdraw from the insulating members. This process is repeated sequentially.

Original Abstract Submitted

Provided is a stator assembly apparatus configured to assemble a stator, the apparatus including: a plurality of guide members that are provided in a manner enabling insertion into and withdrawal from inside the electrically-insulating members in a central axial direction of the stator core, and are arranged in a radial direction of the slots in a state of having been inserted inside the electrically-insulating members; a presser configured to press the coil radially outward with respect to the stator core; and a controller configured to control movement of the plurality of guide members. Each time the coil moved by the presser come into contact with or approaches the guide member positioned most radially inside from among the plurality of guide members inside the electrically-insulating members, the controller causes the guide member positioned most radially inside to move so as to sequentially withdraw from within the electrically-insulating members.
