Abstract
In a linear motor coil assembly (12), and a method for manufacturing the same, a plurality of coils (14) are arranged in a line in a direction of movement and have respective coil axes perpendicular to the direction of movement of the motor. A flat cooling tube (20) is arranged to meander inside the plurality of coils. The cooling tube has a cross section elongated in a direction parallel to the coil axes, and a plurality of clearance holes (25) through which coolant flows are formed inside the cooling tube. The cooling tube has interleaved folds at least equal in number to the number of coils. The coils being fitted into these folds. At the time of manufacture of the coil assembly, the coils are wound around cores that are divided for each coil, and the cores are inserted into the folds of the cooling tube.
