A method and apparatus for producing an arrangement of a support and a coil (e.g, chip card)

摘要

The invention concerns a method of producing an arrangement comprising an air-core coil (2) which is wound with winding wire covered with an insulating material and has a core which covers a relatively large area in comparison with the thickness of the air-core coil (2). The method is carried out using a winding tool (3) with a winding core (4) for depositing and supporting the air-core coil (2) and with a winding member (5) for dispensing or feeding the winding wire onto the winding core (4). The winding core (4) and winding member (5) are mounted such that they can rotate relative to each other. The method is characterized by the following steps: winding the air-core coil (2) onto the winding core (4) of the winding tool (3); at the end of the winding step, direct and exact transfer and positioning of the wound air-core coil (2) on a carrier (12) supported by a carrier holder (13); securing the wound air-core coil (2) on the carrier (12); and installing the air-core coil (2) secured on the carrier (12) in the arrangement to be produced.
