Claims.
'Ihe invention relates generally to magnetic core structures for electrical apparatus and, more particularly, to bonded wound core structures.
With the advent of the oriented silicon steel,
lin order to take full advantage of the high permeability characteristics of the steel in small cores, it was found desirable to` employ wound cores. After the cores have been wound it is necessaryl to apply the electrical windings. In one well known type of structure, the standard practice is to make preformed electrical coils and to out the wound core into two sections and nt the core over the preformed electrical windings.
'When such practice was employed, it was found desirable to bond the turns of the wound core to one another, so that when the core is cut into sections for applying to the preformed coils they will not split apart and render it difiicult to apply the core sections to the preformed coils.
The standard practice in bonding the turns or laminations of the wound core to one another has been to impregnate the core after it is wound with some suitable bonding material. This practice has been reasonably successful. However, there is always a certain percentage of the cores lost due to the splitting apart of the turns or laminations. In manufacturing operations with which the inventor is familiar, as much as 2% of the cores have been lost at times due to the splittingl apart of the turns or laminations. The
' splitting usually occurs at the edge of the core.
Sometimes these splits can be repaired, and the core salvaged. In many instances. the split core cannot be repaired, and the core is a complete loss. This adds greatly to the cost of manufacturing cores for electrical apparatus and, in particular. transformers.
The object of the invention is to provide for so bonding the laminations of a wound core of electrical sheet steel that the laminations will f not split apart at the edges.
` struction hereinafter set forth and the scope of the application of which will be indicated in the claims.
For a fuller understanding of the nature and objects of the invention, reference should be had ytov the following detailed description taken in connection with the accompanying drawing, in which:
Figure 1 is a view in perspective of a. section of a wound core embodying the features of the invention; l
Fig. 2 is a. view in perspective of a section of a wound core showing a modification of the invention embodied in Fig. l and rig. 3 is a view in perspective of a portion of a wound core greatly magnified to show details of tne invention.
Referring now to the drawing, the wound core section IU illustrated in Figure l is part of a core made by winding together on a mandrel two strips of electrical sheet steel. The core section I0 comprises a plurality of layers or laminations bonded to one another to provide a unitary structure.
In order to provide a structure, such as illustrated in Fig. l, two strips of electrical sheet steel are superimposed on one another so that the edges of the wider strip, such, for example, as II, extend beyond both sides of the narrower strip I2. When the two strips are wound t0- getner into a core structure, the edges of alternate laminations of the core will extend beyond or overhang the other laminations on both sides.
Any desired type of core of this kind can be made by using a plurality of strips of different widths. In the structure illustrated in Fig. 1, thc
core section ID comprises two strips wound together, however any number of strips of electrical sheet steel of diierent widths may be wound toiL gether to provide a core of the desired contour at the sides, that is, with the edges of some of the laminations extending beyond other laminations.
In the modiiication illustrated in Fig. 2, the outer turn I3 and the next adjacent turn I4 are of the same width. In winding the core structure from which the core section shown in Fig. 1
was cut, the strips which form the laminations I3 and I4 were so disposed or vso offset relative to one another that one edge of each lamination I3 extends laterally beyond one edge of each lamination I4 on one side while one edge of each lamination I4 extends laterally beyond one edge of each lamination I3 on the opposite side. Thus. in the core section shown in Fig. 2, with strips of electrical sheet steel of the same width, we
have provided a structure very similar to the core section III.
The width of the strip from which the core is wound can readily be determined by one skilled in the art of making wound cores. It has been found in practice that when a structure. such as shown in Fig. 1, is being made, if the strip or turn II is three inches Wide, that the strip or turn I2 should be from 2% inches to 2% inches wide. This gives an overhang or extension laterally of the edge of one strip beyond the edge of the other strip of from 1/8 inch to 11g inch. In practice, this was found quitesatisfactory for this size of core.
In the modification illustrated in Fig. 2, the strips or laminations I3 and I4 are of the same width. In order to provide space at the sides of the core between the overhanging laminations lfor bonding material, the strips will be offset so as to give an overhang of the edge of one turn or lamination over the next turn or lamination of from fs inch to 1/8 inch.
The distance that one turn extends laterally beyond the other may be said to be a matter of design. However, it may also be influenced by the bonding material that it is desired to use.
After the core has been wound on the mandrel, as is common practice, it is impregnated with some suitable bonding material. The bonding materialwill bond the laminations II and I2 in the structure illustrated in Fig. l and the laminations I3 and I4, as illustrated in Fig. 2 into unitary structures.
The selection of the bonding material will depend on the characteristics it is desired that the core should have. The bonding material should be capable of penetrating between the laminations or turns of the core and when cured should have adequate strength to hold the turns in the same relative positions as when the core is impregnated. It should be suiiiciently resilient to permit some distortion without shattering and capable of resisting predetermined temperatures without becoming soft and losing its tensile strength. Therefore, it will be seen that the selection of the bonding material is important.
A bonding material that has been used with success is disclosed in the J. G. Ford Patent 2,37 2,074, issued March 20, 1945. For convenience in reference, the composition of the bonding material of Patent 2,372,074 comprises polyvinyl acetal ill/2%, polyvinyl acetate 421/2%, and the resinous condensate of cresylic acid and formaldehyde 15%. The percentages given above are al1 by weight. The above composition when it is being prepared for the impregnation process is dissolved in a solvent composed of approximately two parts by weight of toluene or xylene and one part by weight of ethyl alcohol to form a 25% to l40% solution. In some cases, coal tar naphtha may be used in place of toluene or xylene.
It will be readily appreciated by anyone skilled in the art that different compositions of the same materials may be prepared to meet diierent requirements in the bonding operation.
In this invention in the impregnation process to bond the turns or laminations to one another, layers of bonding material I5 will be applied to the sides of the core, as shown in Figs. l and 2. These layers I5 of the same bonding material as used for impregnation will bond the overhanging edges of the laminations II to one another and to the'narrower laminations I2. In the construction illustrated in Fig. 2, the layers of bonding material I5 will bond the overhanging edges of the laminations I3 on one side of the core section to one another and to the' laminations I4, and
the overhanging edges of the turns I4 on the' other side to one another and to the turns I3.
This in effect gives layers of bonding material on each side of the core which will greatly increase the strength of the bond between the turns and will prevent splitting at the edges which is the cause of the greatest amount of loss in the manufacture of cores.
It has also been found that by mixing a certain amount of fibrous material with the bonding material the layers I5 may be greatly strengthened. Many different kinds of fibrous material may be employed, such as asbestos. glass, cotton and other types of mineral and vegetable bers. It will 15e appreciated by anyone skilled in the art that the bers employed should be selected to meet the requirements of the problem at hand. For example, if the baking cycle applied to the core after it has been made should be as high as C., then it would be unwise to use cel1ulosic bers since they would deteriorate under such temperatures. When the baking temperatures are to be as high as 140 C., a mineral ber would preferably be employed.
It has also been found that during impregnation with a bonding material carrying fibrous material that in the process of infiltration the fibers are collected at the edges of the turns of electrical sheet material. When the bers are collected in this manner, it greatly strengthens the bond at the edges of the turns, and splitting is practically eliminated.
Other bonding materials have been employed with success. Bonding materials that may be employed are mixtures of acetals with phenolic materials in a suitable solvent, resorcinol formaldehyde resin mixed with vinyl acetate, the mixtures being dissolved in a suitable solvent and a solution of aniline resins mixed with vinyl acetate. It is also possible to use bonding materials such as dierent types of phenolic, aminos, and alkyd resins. Further fibrous materials may be used with any of the bonding materials.
In instances where fibrous material has been employed, it was found good practice to employ around 30% to 40% by Weight of fibers calculated on the solids content of the resinous material in the bond. This may be expressed by saying that a bond containing 40% by weight of resin would contain around 16% to 20% by weight of brous material. The weight of the iibrous material employed will, of course, depend to some extent on the characteristics of the fibrous material used. In order to illustrate this point, we may say that two or three times as much asbestos ber is required as cellulosic ber. The mat formed along the edges of the turn through the accumulation of the bers as the infiltration of the bonding material proceeds gives a very strong layer or coating of bonding material which holds the turns together.
In practicing this invention, it has been found that when the insulated strips from which the core is wound are staggered or offset in the manner described hereinbefore that lower losses result than were obtained from corresponding iron Wound with the edges of the strip in line. The improved efficiency of the core results from a number of features of this improved type of core.
One of the contributing factors to the lowering of the losses in the new core results from the fact that, if in cutting the strips from which the core sections are wound burrs are formed on the edges of the strips, the burrs on the edges of one turn or lamination does not contact the edges of the next adjacent lamination since the edges of the strips are staggered relative to one another in the winding operation and the burrs on the l edge of the lamination covered by an overhangever, when two or more strips are wound together to form a core, the characteristics of the steel are averaged out, and it" has been round that the magnetic characteristics are homogeneous throughout. It has been found that the spaces between the wider laminations, or the laminations or turns having the overhanging edge, are better nlled with bonding material and thus give greater strength to resist splitting.
Reference toFig. 3, which is an enlarged view of how the core will appear, shows how the overhanging edges I8 of the turns are bonded to one another by the bonding material I and to the other turns to cooperate in holding the turns together in a unitary structure to resist splitting at the edges.
Since certain changes may be made in the above article and different embodiments of the invention could be made without departing from the scope thereof, it is intended that all matter contained in the above description or shown in the accompanying drawing shall be interpreted as illustrative and not in a limiting sense.
