may circulate. The armature-coils are 

 of flat-link shape with rounded ends, 

 which are laid on to the surface of the 

 core with the active wires parallel to the 

 spindle. The ends of the coils are 

 brought over the end plates of the core, 

 and bent inwards, as shown at C C C in 

 Fig. 22, and secured in that position. 

 The straight portions of the coils are 

 fastened to the surface of the core by 

 insulated filling-pieces and binding-hoops. 

 The field magnets N S are set radially 

 outside the armature, and their outer ends 

 are connected by a cylindrical yoke y. 



The Lowrie-Parker Alternator. 

 Tnis machine is the inverse of that 

 just described. The armature is outside 

 of the field, and is stationary, whilst the 

 magnets revolve. The armature coils 

 C C, Fig. 23, are also of flat-link shape, 

 the conductor consisting of a cotton- 

 covered strip, wound upon a core of wood 

 with rounded ends ; they are laid with 

 their long side parallel to the spindle on 

 to the inner surface of the armature-core
