Abstract
In the manufacture of certain stators for dynamoelectric devices, proper spacing between oppositely-facing winding forms of a winding form assembly is determined by the length of a pair of connector rods extending from one winding form to the other. A winding form assembly can be quickly and easily adjusted for use in the manufacture of stators having various stack heights by removal and replacement of the winding form connector rods with connector rods of an appropriate length. The connector rods are locked to one of the winding forms when the connector rods are in a first rotary position and are removable when the connector rods are in a second rotary position. A simple tool can be used to rotate the connector rods between the first rotary position and the second rotary position.
