Abstract

A device and a method for connecting lamination parts to form a lamination stack, in which lamination parts are punched out from an electrical strip that is coated on at least one of its flat sides with a hot-melt adhesive varnish layer, the lamination parts that have been punched out are stacked, and then connected in an integrally joined manner through thermal activation of the hot-melt adhesive varnish layer to form a plurality of lamination stacks. Before the lamination parts are punched out, the electrical strip is prepared in a subregion of the hot-melt adhesive varnish layer in such a way that after the lamination part is punched out, this lamination part facilitates separation of the stacked lamination parts into lamination stacks. In the preparation of the electrical strip, the layer thickness of the hot-melt adhesive varnish layer on the electrical strip is at least reduced through removal by laser light in order to produce the subregion.

An apparatus and method for bonding sheet metal parts to a laminated core in which sheet metal parts are punched from an electrical steel strip, the punched sheet metal parts are stacked and bonded at least integrally to form a plurality of laminated cores, and in order to facilitate the separation of the integrally bonded sheet metal parts into laminated cores, a separating agent is provided at least between two stacked sheet metal parts in that with the punching stage for punching the sheet metal part, the separating agent is both punched from a separating agent support and provided to the sheet metal part. In order to embody the application of a geometrically accurate separating agent in a reproducible and simple way, it is proposed that the separating agent be punched from the sheet-like separating agent support that is supplied below the electrical steel strip.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for connecting lamination parts (2) to form a lamination stack (3), in which lamination parts (2) are punched out from an electrical steel strip (5), which is coated on at least one of the flat sides (6, 7) thereof with an activatable adhesive layer (8, 9), in particular a hot-melt adhesive layer, and the punched-out lamination parts (2) are stacked and are adhesively bonded to form lamination stacks (3), the electrical steel strip (5) being embossed in a first subregion (5.1) before lamination parts (2) are punched out, a plurality of spacers (20.1, 20.2) protruding on at least one flat side (6, 7) of the electrical steel strip (5) being produced by the embossing, by means of which spacers (20.1, 20.2) the separating of the stacked and adhesively bonded lamination parts (2) into lamination stacks (3) is facilitated after a first lamination part (2) has been punched out from said first subregion (5.1). In order to achieve separation that is simple with respect to process, it is proposed that spacers (20.1, 20.2) protruding from both flat sides (6, 7) of the electrical steel strip (5) are produced in the first subregion (5.1) by embossing and that the first lamination part (2) is provided as a separating element (10.1, 10.2, 10.3) between the lamination parts (2) adhesively bonded to each other, which separating element is separate from the lamination stacks (3).

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for connecting lamination parts (2, 2.1, 2.2) in order to form lamination stacks (3, 30). The aim of the invention is to ensure a multifaceted applicability of the lamination stacks. This is achieved in that first recesses (22.1) are punched in an identical manner in a first and second sub-region (5.1, 5.2) on the electrical sheet strip (5); additional second recesses (22.2) are punched in the second sub-region (5.2) in accordance with the number of spacers (20), said second recesses (22.2) being designed to receive the spacers (20), and a second lamination part (2.2) which is punched free from the second sub-region (5.2) is either stacked in front of or behind the first lamination part (2.1) such that when spacers (20) of the first lamination part (2.1) are resting against the second lamination part (2.2), the second recesses (22.2) are offset relative to the spacers (20).

Abstract

A device and a method for connecting sheet metal parts to form lamination stacks are demonstrated, in which sheet metal parts are stamped out of an electrical steel strip by means of at least one stamping stage, which has a die and a cutting edge that cooperates with the die, and the stamped-out sheet metal parts are stacked and at least integrally joined to form a plurality of lamination stacks; at least between a first sheet metal part of the stacked sheet metal parts and the subsequent second sheet metal part of the stacked sheet metal parts, a separating element is provided in order to facilitate the separation of the integrally joined sheet metal parts in lamination stacks. In order to improve the reproducibility of the method, when applying the separating element, it is proposed that after the first sheet metal part is stamped out and before the second sheet metal part is stamped out, the separating element which, in accordance with the die geometry, is smaller or of the same size is conveyed to the die, is inserted into said die, and is thus provided to the first sheet metal part.
