Claims
- 1. An apparatus for manufacturing a stator of a rotary electric machine including a cylindrical stator core with a plurality of slots and a plurality of conductor segments respectively disposed in said slots in a plurality of radially aligned layers, said apparatus comprising:means for holding each of said conductor segments at grip portions; second means for driving said first means to shift said grip portions in a prescribed circumferential direction of said stator core; and third means for driving said first means to shift said grip portions separately from one another in an axial direction of said stator core to locate those of said grip portions to be connected adjacent to each other.
- 2. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1, whereinsaid first means comprises a plurality of twisting tools which respectively shift said grip portions separately from one another in circumferential and axial directions of said stator core.
- 3. The apparatus as claimed in claim 1, whereinsaid second means comprises a plurality of twisting tools for respectively shifting said grip portions the same angle in said circumferential direction, and said third means comprises a plurality of axial drive units for respectively shifting said grip portions in said axial direction under all heights of said grip portions become equal.
- 4. An apparatus for manufacturing a stator of a rotary electric machine including a cylindrical stator core with a plurality of slots and a plurality of conductor segments respectively disposed in said slots in a plurality of radially aligned layers, said apparatus comprising:a plurality of twisting tools for respectively shifting said grip portions separately from one another in circumferential and axial directions of said stator core; a plurality of circumferential drive units for respectively driving said twisting tools in a circumferential direction; a plurality of axial drive units for respectively driving said twisting tools in an axial direction of said stator core to locate those of said grip portions to be connected adjacent to each other.
- 5. The apparatus as claimed in claim 4, whereineach of said twisting tools has means for holding said grip portions.
