Abstract:
A fixing force measuring apparatus including a section for applying a predetermined controlled hammering force to a wedge surface to generate a hammering sound, a section for controlling the hammering sound generated, a section for obtaining plural kinds of feature quantities such as a feature quantity due to a hammering sound energy, and a feature quantity due to a frequency of the hammering sound from the hammering sound collected by an arithmetic operation, and a section for obtaining a fixing force corresponding to the plural kinds of feature quantities by using a correlative relationship between the wedge fixing force previously obtained, and the plural kinds of feature quantities.
Abstract:
A rotor coil for a revolving armature includes a strand coil that includes a part arranged in a core slot of the rotor and is composed of a plurality of element wires; and a solid coil welded to an end of the strand coil wherein the end of the strand coil and an end of the solid coil are welded by friction stir welding. A manufacturing method of a rotor coil includes the step of performing friction stir welding wherein the friction stir welding is performed for the butt joint with the end of the strand coil arranged in an advancing side defined by a rotation direction of a tool and with the solid coil arranged in a retreating side.
