Abstract
An armature coil winder for winding coils at high density while restricting coil ends within a restricted space in an armature core assembly having a plurality of slots in an outer circumference thereof and a series of continuous coils, the coil winder including a fixed former for guiding one of the continuous coils into two of the slots, and a movable former for restricting a position of a coil end of one of the continuous coils between the two slots by moving in the fixed former along both end surfaces of the armature core assembly toward a center of the core assembly; a former slider including a flyer for winding one of the continuous coils around the fixed former; and a coil shaping mechanism including coil shaping blades for shaping one of the continuous coils in the slots relative to the armature core assembly. The use of such a winder to form coils of an armature core assembly is also described.
