A coil includes a wound body and a resin covering. The wound body is configured by winding a conductor. The wound body is pressure-molded. The resin covering covers a surface of the wound body.

A winding method of forming a coil by edgewise bending a flat rectangular conductor comprises a step of edgewise bending the rectangular conductor to form edgewise bending portions so that two predetermined two adjacent bent portions are formed so that an outward bulging portion to be generated by edgewise-bending of the flat rectangular conductor is generated in a concentrated manner in a side between the two edgewise bent portions, and the side having the bulging portion constitutes each of a pair of opposite sides of the coil.

A coil manufacturing device for manufacturing a coil by rotating a winding core and winding a wire around the rotating winding core, the coil manufacturing device includes a recess formed in the winding core, the recess being configured to suspend the wire wound around the winding core in the recess; and a wire bundling device configured to bundle the wire suspended in the recess.

Provided is a method for winding an edgewise coil and a winding device capable of saving time and labor when changing a guide. A guide bar is disposed in contact with the side face of the rectangular conductor bent by the bending jig and the rotation center of the guide bar deviates from the rotation center of a bending jig for bending a rectangular conductor. The guide bar rotates in accordance with the action whereby the bending jig bends the rectangular conductor and supports the outside surface of a coil on the side of rotational direction of the bending jig.

The invention relates to a method for producing a helix (2). A permanent mold with mold halves which can be joined together on a mold separation plane is provided. The mold halves of the permanent mold are joined together such that the permanent mold has a cavity, which defines the shape of the helix (2) or the shape of a bent-up helix, when the permanent mold is joined together. The specified helix (2) or the bent-up helix has a flattened profiled winding cross-section which has two opposite flat faces (2.1, 2.1′), an outer face and an inner face (2.3) opposite the outer face. The mold separation plane runs at least partly along the flat faces (2.1, 2.1′) from the inner face to the outer face (2.3), wherein the permanent mold has a bulge (2.5) which extends along the mold separation plane and protrudes into the cavity at least in a region in which the mold separation plane runs along one of the flat faces (2.1, 2.1′) such that the cast body is provided with recesses (2.5) on the flat faces (2.1, 2.1′). The invention further relates to a permanent mold for carrying out the method and to a helix which has been produced using the method or using the permanent mold.

A 3D printed metal coil for an electrical machine. The 3D printed coil has a plurality of turns and is configured to fit within a slot in an electrical machine. A portion of each turn forming an end winding of the coil has a flat plate-like shape for dissipating heat from the end winding.

A winding device includes: a winding core having a winding body and flanges provided on both sides of the winding body in a rotation-axis direction, the winding core being configured such that a wire rod supplied from a supply source is wound around the winding body being rotated; a guide member configured to be rotated together with the winding core, the guide member being configured to guide the wire rod to the winding body; and an axial-direction moving mechanism configured to move the guide member in the rotation-axis direction of the winding core.

A method for winding a coil for electric machines, and a coil wound according to this method. Wherein the method comprises the following steps: placing a wire against a form, leaving a first length of the wire and a second length of the wire extending from the form, wherein the first length has a first end and the second length has a second end; winding the first length in a first direction round the form, such that the first end of the first length is ending in an outer layer of the plurality of layers; winding the second length in a second direction round the form, wherein the second direction is opposite the first direction, wherein the second end of the second length is ending in an outer layer of the plurality of layers, wherein all layers and levels of the coil are filled.

A stator with a multi-phase stator winding including phase windings each made of several winding segments, the segments including intermediate conductor portions arranged away from each other in a circumferential direction and link portions located at first and second radial end sides and connect the paired intermediate conductor portions into an annular shape. The winding segments are adjacent each other in a circumferential direction partially overlapping in the circumferential direction and include first and second winding segments overlapping each other in the circumferential direction. The link portions of the first winding segments are bent radially inward at at least one of axially opposed ends of the stator winding. The link portions of the second winding segments are bent radially outward at the at least one of the axially opposed ends of the stator winding. These link portions are arranged not overlapping in an axial direction of the stator.

A method, a processing line and components of the processing line for making a stator for electric motors, and the resultant stator. The conducting wire is wound in coils having at least one straight portion which is inserted into a corresponding stator sector. The sector is thus deformed to move its teeth close to each other and to close the straight portion of the coil. Multiple stator sectors so made are assembled together to form a stator complete with windings. During the production of stator sectors, the coils and/or stator sectors are rototranslated to bring them to the final position they must take inside the finished stator. Measures are provided to maximize the filling factor, to minimize torque ripple phenomena, to minimize noise and the vibrations of the electric motor achieved with the stator, and to maximize its performance, under other equal conditions.
