Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wire winding devices are limited in their ability to efficiently wind wire into stators of small sizes, as they are designed for fixed-size stators and cannot accommodate smaller dimensions effectively.
Innovation Solution
A wire winding device comprising a rotatable tray, a horizontal shaft, a support post, and a guiding bar, where the rotatable tray has a clamping portion and an accommodation orifice, the horizontal shaft includes a connection section and a clamp arm, and the support post has jaws and a circular cavity to securely hold a guiding bar that accommodates the metal wire, allowing for easy and secure winding in small stators.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional wire winding device is used for fixed-size stators, then the device can reliably wind wire in standard configurations, but it cannot accommodate stators of small size
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies the dynamics principle by making the tray rotatable to change the orientation of the stator during the winding process. The tray can be rotated to different angles (e.g., 45 degrees) to accommodate small-sized stators that cannot be properly wound in a fixed horizontal position. This dynamic adjustment of the stator's orientation enables the device to handle various stator sizes while maintaining reliable wire winding through the guided bar mechanism.
2Adaptability or versatility
If the stator is positioned horizontally for winding, then the wire can be wound in standard configurations, but small-sized stators cannot be accommodated
Solution Approach 1:
The patent makes the tray rotatable so that the stator can be positioned at different angles during the winding operation. For small-sized stators, the tray can be rotated to a tilted position (e.g., 45 degrees), allowing the wire to be fed through the guided bar and wound effectively. This dynamic positioning capability maintains ease of operation while enabling accommodation of various stator sizes.
Solution Approach 2:
The guided bar acts as an intermediary component that facilitates wire feeding into the stator at different orientations. The guided bar is connected to the tray and can move with the tray's rotation, ensuring that the wire is always properly directed into the stator's slot regardless of the stator's orientation. This intermediary mechanism maintains ease of operation while enabling the handling of small-sized stators.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed-configuration winding device is used, then the structure is simple, but it lacks the capability to wind wire in small-sized stators
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a rotatable tray mechanism that adds minimal complexity to the overall device structure. The tray can rotate to different angles, enabling the accommodation of small-sized stators. This single dynamic component provides significant adaptability without substantially increasing device complexity, as the rotation mechanism integrates smoothly with the existing tray and guided bar structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The rotatable tray mechanism serves multiple functions: it holds the stator, enables rotation to different orientations, and works in conjunction with the guided bar to facilitate wire feeding. This multi-functional design provides the capability to wind both standard and small-sized stators without requiring separate dedicated devices, thereby achieving adaptability with controlled complexity.

AI summary
A wire winding device for a stator contains: a rotatable tray, a horizontal shaft, a support post, and a guiding bar. The rotatable tray includes a clamping portion, a fixing portion, an accommodation orifice, and a slot. The horizontal shaft includes a connection section located on a first end thereof and includes a clamp arm arranged on a second end thereof proximate to a receiving trough. The support post inserts into the receiving trough of the horizontal shaft and is clamped by the clamp arm, and the support post includes two jaws and a circular cavity defined therein adjacent to the two jaws. The guiding bar includes a part housed in the circular cavity and is hollow so as to accommodate a metal wire which is located in or around a stator.
