Abstract: 1375504 Inserting electrical coils into cores GENERAL ELECTRIC CO 15 March 1972 [19 March 1971] 12052/72 Heading B3A An apparatus for inserting the side turn portions of electrical coils 32 into axial slots 33 of a magnetic core 34 comprises turn inserting means including coil inserter blades 35, which are movable a preselected distance relative to the core 34 by a drive means 65, 70, and means, accessible through the turn inserting means remote from the drive means 65, 70, for selectively setting the preselected distance. The insertion operation is initiated by raising a plate 63 along rods 60, 61 by a piston 65 of a cylinder 70 causing pushers 75 to move insulators 78 from apertures 77 of a rotatable magazine 76 to a position just below the coils 32. When the plate 63 engages a control member 53 in screw threaded engagement with a rod 38 connected at one end to the feeder blades 35, the rod 38 is raised together with a coaxial rod 29 which is connected to the rod 38 through a slip clutch 50 and which is connected to divider blades 21. The upward movement of the divider blades 21 is halted when a control plate 49 in screw threaded engagement with the rod 29 engages a stationary plate 46, the slip clutch 50 allowing the feeder blades 35 to continue upward movement with the insulator pushers 75 until stop members 71 engage the control plate 49 whereupon the insertion of the coils 32 and insulators 78 into the core slots 33 is complete. In this position teeth 56 of the control member 53 are intermeshed with teeth 58 of a member 57 fixed to the control plate 49. The strokes of the blades 21, 35 and insulator pushers 75 are adjustable to accommodate cores 34 of different heights by manually rotating the rod 38 which causes, through pin connection 43, simultaneous rotation of the rod 29 to effect axial movement of the control plate 49 and control member 53. When the core height is small, the control plate 49 may be positioned against the stationary plate 46 to prevent movement of the divider blades 21. The core 34 is held against axial movement by cylinder operated latches 78. The divider blades 21 and feeder blades 35 may be rotated by a gear 18.

A cylindrical member presenting a conductive helical surface consists of an insulating sleeve on which a wire is helically wound and to which it is secured by a bonding material partially embedding the wire, a diameter of the wire being exposed to constitute the helical surface. The member may form part of a capcitative position sensing device. To form an external conductive surface a resin bonded fibre-glass sleeve 1 is provided with at least one helical groove 4 in which wire 5 is wound. The sleeve is then covered with thermosetting resin 6 and when this has hardened the assembly is machined to remove resin and wire to expose a diameter of the latter. Former 2 may be retained to reinforce the assembly. An internal conductive surface may be formed by winding a wire in grooves on a mandrel, applying a layer of resin and then applying a layer of resin bonded fibre glass to form a sleeve. The outer surface is then machined and the assembly is centrally bored out to remove the mandrel and expose the wire at a diameter. In another embodiment (Fig 3) the wire 25 is wound in grooves on a mandrel 22 and a grooved sleeve 21 is screwed on to it. The ends of the wire are secured to pegs 27, 28 on the sleeve and mandrel, and the mandrel is turned slightly to loosen the wire and force it into grooves 26 in the sleeve. After transferring the end of the wire from peg 28 to peg 29 the mandrel is unscrewed, resin is applied to the wire and machining is carried out as before. Specification 872,152 is referred to.

Abstract: 944,588. Protective arrangements. GARRETT CORPORATION. April 7, 1960 [April 10, 1959], No. 12433/60. Heading H2K. In a protective arrangement for a starconnected polyphase load, e.g. a motor 16, supplied from a star-connected source 10, a saturable current-transformer 14 has a secondary winding 66 connected to the opening coil 11 of a latched-closed relay 32 and a part or the whole of this winding is normally shunted by a low-impedance circuit including a thermal switch 68. Under overload conditions, the bimetallic strip of the thermal switch is heated by the current in a heater coil 61 and/or the heat of the motor and opens its contacts to interrupt the low-impedance circuit. The output of the current transformer 14 now energizes the coil 11 sufficiently for it to open the contacts of the relay 32 and so interrupt the supply to the operating coil of a contactor 30. Under earth fault conditions the coil 11 is energized by the secondary winding 50 of a core-balance transformer 12 having a primary winding in the neutral conductor as well as those in the phase conductors. The relay 32 may be reclosed by the energizing of a reset coil 76 on the operation of a resetting pushbutton switch 86.

Vacuum gauges.-A sealed evacuated or gasfilled enclosure such as an incandescent lamp is tested to determine the degree of vacuum or the nature of the gas filling by subjecting it to a highfrequency electric discharge and utilizing the current passing through the lamp under test to actuate an indicating device. A transformer has its primary winding 10 connected to supply mains and is provided wth two secondary windings 12, 13 supplying current to the anode and filament circuits respectively of two valves 14, 15 connected in parallel. In the anode circuit is included a coil 16 and a milliammeter 28. The grid circuit includes a coil 17, load-equalizing resistances 32, 33, and a varable grid leak 18 for adjusting the starting load to a definite value. Coupled with the coils 16, 17 is a high-frequency secondary coil 22 earthed at one end and having at the other end an electrode 23 into which the lamp &c. 24 to be tested is inserted. If, for example, the lamp is filled with argon and some air is present, the resistance is increased and the current correspondingly lowered. This induces a change in the anode and grid circuits of the valves due to the coils 16, 17, the effect of which is indicated on the milliammeter 28. In place of the milliammeter 28 there may be inserted a member forming part of a sorting device. The coils 16, 17 mav be wound on an insulating tube surrounding and spaced from an inner insulating tube on which the coil 22 is wound. Specification 301,454 is referred to.
