ABSTRACT:
Method of making a flat wire of the type comprising a plurality of bars in substantially axially parallel arrangement relative to one another and including wire slots contained inbetween. Said method comprises providing a plurality of bars and providing at least two bar support members. Each bar support member includes laterally open recesses provided along a longitudinal edge of the bar support member. Each bar support member is capable of being flexed from an initial state to a final state. At the initial state, the longitudinal edge has an initial radius of curvature such that the laterally open recesses are open sufficiently to receive the bars and wherein at the final state, the longitudinal edge has a final radius of curvature larger than the initial radius of curvature such that the laterally open recesses are sufficiently closed to exert a clamping force upon the bars retained in said recesses. The bars are inserted into the laterally open recesses of the bar support members while the bar support members are in the initial state in order to provide a wire shell. The bar support members are bent from the initial state to the final state such that the laterally open recesses exert a clamping force upon the bars.
