A dynamoelectric machine having a wire retaining device constructed to frictionally retain the quadrature winding to allow automated winding of the quadrature winding. The wire retaining device includes stator end caps having integrally formed wire retention elements at the radially inner end of the stator tooth. The wire retaining device frictionally holds the wire in place as the quadrature winding is automatically wound about the stator. In addition, the stator end caps electrically insulate the quadrature winding from the stator and the main winding.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.] A dynamoelectric machine comprising:a rotor including at least one permanent magnet;a stator including a stator core having a central opening in which the rotor is received, the stator core having teeth extending radially inwardly into the central opening, and a winding wound around at least some of the teeth of the stator core;a quadrature winding positioned for generating an output signal representative of rotor angular position, the quadrature winding including wire extending longitudinally of the stator core along radially inner ends of at least some of the stator teeth; andwire retaining means associated with at least some of the stator teeth for engaging and fixedly retaining the quadrature winding wire to secure the quadrature winding in position on the stator core;said wire retaining means comprising a pair of nubs spaced apart a distance less than the diameter of the quadrature winding wire such that the wire is received between the nubs with an interference fit, said wire retaining means located generally at the radially inner ends of said at least some stator teeth.
