A wiring assembly having a conductor positioned about an axis in a helical-like configuration to provide a repetitive pattern which rotates around the axis. In one embodiment, when a current passes through the conductor, a magnetic field having an orientation orthogonal to the axis changes direction as a function of position along the axis. |

Claim: |
1. A method of providing and operating a conductor assembly comprising a first continuous conductor, the assembly being of the type such that (i) when conducting current, a magnetic field is generated or (ii) when the conductor is in the presence of a changing magnetic field, a voltage is induced therein, the method comprising: positioning the conductor about an axis in a helical-like configuration; making a repetitive pattern of full coil turns which rotate about the axis; generating and rotating at least one magnetic field component in directions transverse to the axis, wherein the rotation occurs about the axis as a function of position along the axis. |
Claim: |
2. A method of providing and operating a conductor assembly, comprising: providing one or more lengths of conductor, each positioned about a common axis in a helical-like configuration, including a segment comprising a sequence of loops forming a repetitive pattern about the common axis, the assembly being of the type which, when conducting current, generates a magnetic field or which, in the presence of a changing magnetic field, induces a voltage; generating, with the portion of the segment which forms the repetitive pattern, a transverse field along each in a plurality of planes passing through the common axis and orthogonal thereto, wherein the direction of the transverse field generated by the repetitive pattern, relative to the common axis, rotates about the axis as a function of position along the common axis. |
