US Patent:

47301783, Mar 8, 1988
Filed:

Aug 31, 1987
Appl. No.:

7/091562
Inventors:

William F. Gunnels - Hendersonville NC
Candler A. Willis - Zirconia NC
Mitchell M. Osteen - Zirconia NC
Assignee:

General Electric Company - Schenectady NY
International Classification:

H01F 1510
US Classification:

336192
Abstract:

Coil bobbins are disclosed having flanged coil support portions provided with outboard terminal housings projecting beyond the flange rim and defining inwardly extending terminal-receiving cavities. The end walls of the housings are slotted to allow a wire to pass through the cavity in a circumferential direction relative to the winding axis in similar fashion to a turn of coiling. Bifurcated terminals pressed into the cavities in straddling relationship to the wire provide connections to the coil. A double bobbin has twin flanged coil support portions with bridging sections maintaining their physical separation. Terminal housings are provided on the bridging sections allowing wire to be first wound into a coil on one support portion, guided across the bridging section and passed through the cavity in a terminal housing, and then wound into a coil on the other support portion, all without interruption.
