Abstract

Abstract of the Disclosure Core laminations of two piece EI construction for shell-type cores comprising an E part providing three legs 1,2,3 and a yoke 5, and an I part providing a yoke 4, the width c1 of the yoke 5 being greater than the width c2 of the yoke 4, the width b of the outer legs is greater than half the width f of the middle leg, and the sum C1 + c2 is greater than f. In the stacked core the E and I parts may be in respective stacks, or alternate layers may be reversed. The laminations may be secured by cementing, welding or clamping. The arrangement permits nearly wasteless stamping and improved electrical and magnetic characteristics.

Description

114~Z26 Core Lamination for Shell~type cores, particularly for Transformers.
__.__ _ The invention relates to imp~ovements in magnetic core laminations of two piece EI configuration providing three legs and two end yokes, for shell type magnetic cores utilizing a plurality of said EI laminations provided in layers, said layers being provided with an E
and an I part, the E parts having a center leg and two outer legs parallel thereto at a distance and an integral yoke, which will be called the integral yoke and the ends of said legs abut one side of the I parts, constituting the other yoke, which will be called the separated yoke, and wherein lower reluctance, reduced magnetic leakage and higher efficiency is achieved by means which are described hereafter.
Namely, in addition to the so-called M type of core laminations for shell-type cores, there is also another very widely used type, namely the so-called EI core lamination, for instance according to US-Patent 3,546,571;
~th December 1970; USA Fletcher et al. Core laminations o~ the EI type are distinguished in particular by very economical manuacture because they can be stamped with litt'le or no waste at al], and I parts being obtained from the waste left after the E parts have been stamped.
By far the greatest majority of known art magnetic core laminations for shell-type cores of two piece EI
construction are provided with a ratio of the center leg width being twice the width of'each outer leg and also twice the width of each of th~ end yokes which are of the same width as the outer legs, that is half the center leg width.
It is the object of the invention to provide new and improved magnetic core laminations of two piece EI
construction, so that a core comprising such lam;nations will be characterised by lower reluctance, reduced maynetic leakage and higher efficiency.
According to the invention this object is achieved by ~roviding a core laminations comprising an E

This means that the window widt'n h is e~ual to or greater than the width c2 of the I part B because this is the only possibility of obtaining the I parts B from tne window parts stamped out of the E parts A and hence of cutting the stamping waste to a minimum. Two E parts A are stamped simu]taneously, with their legs pointing toward one another, so that the two window stampings, i.e. the two I parts B, will be of the necessary length. Thus the waste amounts to no more than twice the window length e minus the length a of the I part B of the free yoke 4.
The integral yo~e 5 of the E part A holds the legs 1, ~ and 3 together, its width cl being greater than the width c2 of the separated yoke 4, i.e. the I part B.
The width of the two outer legs 2 and 3 and of the two yokes 4 and 5 is greater than half the width f/2 of the center leg 1. The width b of the outer legs 2 and 3 is preferably 1.2 to 1.3 times half the width f/2 of the center leg 1 whereas the sum of the widths cl and c2 of the two yokes 4 and 5 amounts to 1.3 to 1.4 times the width f of the center leg 1.
The center leg 1, the two outer legs 2 and 3 and the two yokes 4 and 5 enclose the windows 10 and 11, being of window length e calculated in the direction of the longitudinal axis 9 of the center leg 1.
The windows 10 and 11 are asynunetrical to the transverse axis 6 because the width c1 of the integral yoke S is greater than the width c2 of the separated yoke 4, i.e. the I part B.-The shell-type core according to Fig. 2 and 3 contains core ]aminations according to Fig. 1, said core laminations being stacked alternately. The inside edges 12 of the integral yoke 5 of the E parts A are in contact with the winding and its supporting coil form respectively.
Said winding and coil form are not shown in the drawings.
In contrast, the inside edges 15 of the separated yoke 4, i.e. the I parts B are spaced away from the winding and its coil form respectively; by an amount corresponding to tlle yoke width dirference cl - c2. The inside length eK
of the windows in the shell-type core is shorter, by the yoke width difference cl - c2, than the length e of the windows 10 and 11 of the individual core laminations. This form of stacking the core laminations serves to modify the poor, separated yoke cross-section in favour of the heneficial, integral yoke cross-section, without any substantial disadvantage having to be taken into account.
There is no change in the amount of material, stacking time, yoke cross-section or coil form.
In a core comprising ~ alternately stacked laminations of the above kind, the abutting joints are located within the yokes so that some of the magnetic flux can flow out of the yoke in an undivided stream before it even reaches the abutting joints, so diminishing the adverse influence due to said joints. This influence is diminished still further by making the outer legs wider than half the center leg.
It is also possible to stack the EI laminations of the invention in the same direction in the core, the E
parts A and I parts B then being cemented, clamped or welded together after the insertion of the winding and its supporting coil form, respectively. This procedure is particularly adopted in cases where the benefits to the manufacturing process have priority over the electrical characteristics. ~lere again, advantages are obtained by using the core laminations according to the invention.
The magnetic leakage of a shell-type core constructed thus is very low at the end with the integral yokes, firstly because the latter is of larger cross-section and hence of lower reluctance and secondly because all the abutting joints are situated at the other end in the separated yoke part of the shell-type core.
The invention thus provides magnetic core laminations cornprising of two piece EI configuration, wllich are of really universal application, which according to the invention, will be suitable for practically all purposes.
