Abstract
An apparatus for installing an elongate conductor into stator core slots, including a magazine having a radially outer cylindrical surface with recesses that extend inwardly of the cylindrical surface, and a circular rack having a radially outer periphery provided with rack slots. The magazine has an installation mode in which a stator core coaxially surrounds the magazine, there is concurrent radial alignment between pairs of magazine recesses and stator core slots, and a conductor axial branch is receivable by a stator slot from a respectively paired magazine recess; and a load mode in which the circular rack and the magazine have synchronized rotative movements, corresponding pairs of magazine recesses and rack slots are sequentially aligned, and a conductor axial branch is receivable by a magazine recess from its aligned rack slot. Also, a method for loading an elongate conductor onto a magazine for subsequent installation into stator core slots.
