ABSTRACT:
A stator wedge assembly provides a spring force to assist in retaining a conductor securely in a slot, without requiring a separate spring. Two ends of the assembly are received in a dove-tail at the mouth of a slot. A central spring section extends between the two ends and is slightly narrower than the walls at the mouth of the slot, so that it is free to flex. The central part of the central spring section has an increased thickness extending towards the conductor in the slot. At least one wedge is inserted, to press against the conductor in the slot on one side and to press against at least one of the two ends and the central part of the central spring section on the other side, forcing the central spring section away from the conductor. Because of the flexibility or springiness of the material of the flexed central spring section, a spring force is applied to assist in restraining the conductor in the slot.
