Cascaded Winding with Multiple Weaves - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240039378 titled 'Cascaded Winding with Multiple Weaves
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a stator for an electric machine that includes a stator core with slots and a multi-phase winding arrangement. The winding arrangement consists of cascaded conductors arranged in layers within the slots, forming multiple layer pairs. Each phase has multiple parallel paths that make multiple revolutions within a layer pair. The number of weaves between the parallel paths in each layer pair is greater than or equal to two.

Original Abstract Submitted
a stator for an electric machine includes a stator core having a plurality of slots formed therein and a multi-phase winding arrangement positioned on the stator core. the winding arrangement includes a plurality of cascaded conductors arranged in layers of the slots, the layers defining multiple layer pairs. the plurality of cascaded conductors form a plurality of parallel paths per phase, each of the parallel paths making multiple revolutions of the core with each revolution occurring within a layer pair. for each layer pair, a number of weaves (n) are formed between a first parallel path and a second parallel path in said layer pair, wherein n is greater than or equal to two.
