Patent attributes
A structure for forming inductor windings includes a first portion and a second portion of a clamshell casing. The first portion includes a first set of electrically conductive segments, a first inner carrier, and a first outer carrier. The second portion includes a second set of electrically conductive segments, a second inner carrier, and a second outer carrier. An inductor core is mountable between the first inner carrier and the first outer carrier within the first portion. A control assembly aligns and joins the first portion to the second portion of the clamshell casing such that the first set of electrically conductive segments arranged in the first pattern that correspond to first half-turns of the inductor windings, are attached to the second set of electrically conductive segments arranged in the second pattern that correspond to second half-turns of the inductor windings, to form continuous turns around the inductor core.
