CLAMPING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING STATOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
- This abstract for appeared for US patent application number 18176537 Titled 'CLAMPING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING STATOR'
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a clamping device used in laser welding. It is designed to join two stripped portions of a material where the coating is absent. The device consists of two shafts, each with a claw at one end. When the first and second stripped portions are placed between the shafts and the shafts are pressed against curved portions, the device clamps the material by rotating the second shaft until its claw contacts the second end of the material.
Original Abstract Submitted
A clamping device performs a clamping action when performing laser welding to join a first stripped portion, where a coating is absent from a first end, and a second stripped portion, where a coating is absent from a second end. A second claw extends in a radial direction of a second shaft. In a state in which a first shaft and the second shaft are moved toward a stator core such that the first end and the second end are sandwiched between the first shaft and the second shaft, and the first shaft is pressed against a second curved portion and the second shaft is pressed against a first curved portion, the clamping device performs the clamping action by rotating the second shaft about a center axis of the second shaft until the second claw comes into contact with the second end.
