US Patent:

40301842, Jun 21, 1977

Filed:

Aug 24, 1976

Appl. No.:

5/717293

Inventors:

Frank R. Dombrowski - Kingston IL
Raymond L. Larson - Sycamore IL

Assignee:

General Electric Company - Fort Wayne IN

International Classification:

B23Q 1700
B26D 104

US Classification:

29403

Abstract:

A method of stripping from a dynamoelectric machine stator a plurality of windings thereof having one of a pair of opposite generally annular grouping of end turns of the windings secured therefrom. The method includes the steps of: lowering the stator onto means for seating and supporting it so as to dispose the other of the end turns in a predetermined position; gripping the other end turns for maintaining them generally against displacement from the predetermined positions; and driving the seating means generally upwardly relative to the winding and moving the stator conjointly therewith toward a position displaced from the windings while gripping the other end turns in the predetermined position thereby stripping the windings from the stator.

Abstract:

Apparatus for stripping from a dynamoelectric machine stator a plurality of windings thereof with one of a pair of opposite generally annular groupings of end turns severed therefrom. The apparatus has means movable between a mounting position and a displaced position for generally loosely seating the stator and supporting it in the mounting and displaced positions and also means for gripping engagement with the other of the end turns when the stator is in the mounting position to generally maintain the windings against displacement from the mounting position. The seating and supporting means is movable from the mounting position in response to a force applied thereto to conjointly move the stator relative to the windings to the displaced position thereby to effect the stripping of the windings from the stator when the gripping means is engaged with the other end turns. A method for stripping windings from a stator for dynamoelectric machine is also disclosed.

Abstract:

Apparatus for severing from a plurality of windings in a dynamoelectric machine stator a generally annular grouping of winding end turns extending from an end face of the stator. The apparatus has means movable generally in a predetermined plane for severing at least a portion of the winding end turns from the stator windings. Means for mounting the stator includes means for positioning the end face generally adjacent the predetermined plane and also means for supporting the winding end turns portion adjacent the end face and the plane upon the severance of the winding end turns portion in response to the movement of the severing means into severing engagement therewith. A method for severing the end turns from the stator winding, a method of mounting the stator having end turns adapted to be severed, and means for mounting a stator in apparatus for severing end turns from windings of the stator are also disclosed.

International Classification:

G09B 100

US Classification:

434247

Abstract:

A device for recording a series of exercises to be followed over a period of days and for indicating the order in which the exercises are to be performed on a given day. When the exercises are recorded in pencil, they may be erased and rewritten when the exercise regimen is changed by the exerciser. The device includes three flat, circular plates that are rotatable independently of one another about a common pivot point. A plurality of radially extending lines are disposed on a base plate and one exercise is written on each line. Exercises to be performed in one day are grouped together on contiguous radial lines. An intermediate plate has a window formed in it that exposes to view a group of the radial lines when the window is in registration with the group, and a pointer plate includes a pointer that points at an exercise written on a particular line of the group that is exposed to view. The pointer is indexed to the next contiguous line after the performance of each exercise and the intermediate plate is indexed to expose the next group of exercises at a time selected by the exerciser.
