MUMBAI, India, July 5 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517058571 A) filed by Atop S. P. A., Barberino Tavarnelle, Italy, on June 18, for 'station for forming inductive windings of electric machines.'

Inventor(s) include Corbinelli, Rubino; and Nocciolini, Daniele.

The application for the patent was published on July 4, under issue no. 27/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A station (1) for forming a lattice of inductive windings of electric conductors (C) of the hairpin type, wherein each conductor (C) is fork-shaped with two straight shanks (D) of different length joined by a bridge (F). The station (1) comprises a forming tool (4) configured to temporarily accommodate a plurality of conductors (C) about a first axis of symmetry (2a), so as to form the lattice (3) with the bridges (F) of each conductor (C) arranged substantially at the same axial height; it further comprises a pushing element (7) configured to be moved along the first axis of symmetry (2a) so as to push the lattice (3) with respect to the forming tool (4): the pushing element (7) comprises a pusher (8) provided with an operative face (8a) designed to abut against terminal fronts (E) of the shanks (D) of the electric conductors (C) which form the lattice (3). The operative face (8a) of the pusher (8) has a radially-inclined annular configuration with a protrusion that decreases as it progresses further away from the first axis of symmetry (2a), so as to abut against the electric conductors (C) at different axial heights along a radial direction. The operative face (8a) is configured to move axially while remaining in abutment against the terminal fronts (E), until it partially lifts the shanks (D) of the electric conductors (C) that form the lattice from the forming tool (4), so as to enable a subsequent extraction of the lattice (3) from the forming tool (4) by means of an extractor element (9)."

The patent application was internationally filed on Nov. 27, 2023, under International application No.PCT/EP2023/083188.
