Abstract:
1. A tool for transferring coil windings to a motor stator, the motor stator having a longitudinal center axis and a central plane encompassing the center axis, the tool comprising: a first coil support portion configured to maintain a first bundle of coiled wire at a first height for insertion into a first set of motor stator slots, the first height being parallel to the plane; and a second coil support portion configured to maintain a second bundle of coiled wire at a second height above the first height for insertion into a second set of motor stator slots adjacent to the first set of slots, the second height being parallel to the plane; and a least one partition member disposed between the first and second coil support portions; wherein the tool is adapted to be inserted in an interior of the motor stator along a center axis of the stator such that with the first and second coil supports maintaining the first and second bundles at the first and second heights, the first and second bundles are in position to be received in the first and second sets of stator slots.
