Claims
- 1. A slotless and toothless wound stator for an electrical machine, comprising an iron stator cylinder having a smooth circumferential inner wall without slots or teeth between opposite ends of the cylinder, electrical windings without supporting form positioned on and pressed against the smooth inner wall about its circumference, and non-magnetic cylindrical retaining means positioned solely on the side of the electrical windings opposite that of the smooth inner wall and pressing against the windings in a direction toward the smooth inner wall.
- 2. The invention of claim 1, further comprising short end members attached to the stator cylinder at opposite ends thereof, the end members having slot bottoms extending about the end circumferences of the stator cylinder and positioned flush with the inner circumferential wall of the stator cylinder.
- 3. The invention of claim 1, wherein the cylindrical retaining means includes previously lengthwise cut edges which have been adhered to form an uninterrupted cylinder.
- 4. The invention of claim 1, wherein the electrical winding is wound in lap form.
- 5. The invention of claim 1, wherein the electrical winding is wound in concentric form.
- 6. The invention of claim 1, wherein the cylindrical retaining means comprises a plurality of discrete retaining cylinders.
- 7. The invention of claim 2, wherein the short end members are non-magnetic.
