Abstract
A coil winding system is provided for making a secondary winding for an automotive ignition coil. The system includes a roller configured to apply a holding force to wire being dispensed from a wire nozzle onto a bobbin. The nozzle and roller are moved by a drive mechanism under control of a controller from one axial end to the other axial end of the bobbin for winding the bobbin in a progressive winding fashion. The roller allows an increase in the winding angle of the layers, which reduces the voltage difference between adjacent layers, thereby reducing incidence of dielectric break down in that region.
Description
- 1. Technical Field
- The present invention relates generally to the field of engine ignition coils, and, more particularly, to a system and method for winding an ignition coil.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- It is known to use an automated winding system for the manufacture of ignition coils wherein the system has a plurality of spindles for receiving empty coil spools or bobbins, as seen by reference to U.S. Pat. No. 5,950,956 issued to Yukitake. Yukitake discloses an ignition coil winding machine capable of simultaneously forming a plurality of engine ignition coils. The machine has a driver for rotating a shaft on which a coil bobbin is disposed, all under the control of a controller. The machine further includes a tensioning device in between a wire spool (containing wire destined for being wound on the bobbins) and a nozzle. The nozzle reciprocates in the coil winding direction, thereby laying out the wire on the bobbin according to a method specified in the Yukitake patent.
- It is also known to provide an ignition coil of the type suitable for mounting directly above the spark plug, sometimes referred to as a “pencil” coil, that employs a progressive wound secondary winding, as set forth in U.S. Pat. No. 6,276,348 issued to Skinner et al. entitled “IGNITION COIL ASSEMBLY WITH SPOOL HAVING RAMPS AT BOTH ENDS THEREOF.” As disclosed in Skinner et al., a progressive winding is a one segment winding where a “top” layer advances under an angle from one end of the spool to the other. The winding angle is important in such a configuration because it sets the voltage difference between adjacent layers. In current, conventional pencil coils, a typical winding angle ranges between about 8-12 degrees. Increasing the winding angle, however, has been heretofore limited by the wire collapsing at the bottom of the winding. Increasing the winding angle would be beneficial inasmuch as it would be reduce the voltage difference between adjacent wire layers, thereby decreasing the risk of failure due to voids produced in the secondary winding area. That is, in a conventional pencil coil, the secondary winding region is encapsulated with a dielectric material, such as an epoxy potting material. Increased voltage differences may break down such dielectric material, thereby allowing a short circuit between turns.
- There is therefore a need for an improved winding system that minimizes or eliminates one or more of the problems as set forth above.
- One advantage of the present invention is that it solves one or more of the problems set forth above. Another advantage of the present invention is that it facilitates manufacture of a progressive wound coil having an increased winding angle, which reduces a voltage difference between adjacent layers, thereby reducing the occurrence of dielectric break down and possible coil failure. In addition, the invention provides an improved robustness of the winding due to a reduction or elimination of the occurrence of wire movement during the winding process.
- In accordance with the present invention, a method is provided for winding a bobbin having a main axis to form a coil. The method comprises the step of holding the wire being wound on the bobbin in place using a roller. Accordingly, increased winding angles can be employed inasmuch as the wire layers need not rely solely on the tension in the wire during winding to maintain placement, but also benefits from the force exerted by the roller to keep the wire in place.
- In a preferred embodiment, the roller comprises an outer surface formed of a material having a predetermined hardness (or pliability, as the case may be), for example, rubber having a preselected durometer. In a still further preferred embodiment, the outer surface of the roller is formed so as to have a predetermined pattern configured to facilitate holding the wire in place.
- In another aspect of the invention, a system for winding a bobbin is also presented.
- Additional objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily apparent from the following detailed description of preferred embodiments thereof, when taken together with the accompanying drawings in which:
