A coil component includes a core including a winding core portion, a first flange portion, and a second flange portion, and a first wire and a second wire that are wound around the winding core portion in the same direction and that form a winding portion. The winding portion includes a second intersecting portion along a third side surface of the winding core portion at a position on the winding portion nearest to the second flange portion.

Method and machine to manufacture a coil around a component of an article includes a main conveyor that moves along a working path and a carriage with a seat to house the component. Along the working path, the component is arranged in the seat of the carriage in an input station, and at a winding station, a wire having a diameter less than 500 μm is directly wound around the component for a winding time ranging from 50% to 70% of the total work cycle, to obtain the coil with a number of turns less than 50. A work cycle lasts from an initial instant, in which the carriage carrying the component without the coil reaches the winding station, to a final instant, in which the carriage carrying the component with the coil leaves the winding station.

A Conductor on Molded Barrel (COMB) magnet assembly optimized for High Temperature Superconducting (HTS) materials. The magnet assembly comprises a magnetic coil(s) carried by a conductor support structure and configured in cosine-theta geometry. Created using additive manufacturing, the conductor support structure features a continuous cable channel that fittedly carries and positions elongated straight portion(s) of the magnetic coil(s) parallel to a magnetic axis. The conductor support structure may be cylindrically shaped and longitudinally bored, with the continuous cable channel comprising an outer channel portion (distal on the cylinder) and an inner channel portion (proximal on the cylinder). A transition hole that joins the outer channel portion and the inner channel portion allows a single magnetic coil to be wound along both the outer and inner surfaces of the conductor support structure. The conductor support structure may be fabricated as longitudinally-symmetrical halves, and secured for operation using azimuthal and/or midplane shims.

A method of manufacturing a winding-type electronic component using stranded wires which can suppress a disconnection of a winding when a plurality of windings is twisted. The method of manufacturing a winding-type electronic component includes: a preparation step of allowing a chuck to hold a core having a winding core portion (14) and flange portions; a first step of fixing a portion of each of windings supplied from nozzles (N1, N2) to the flange portion; and a second step of twisting the windings by rotating the chuck.

An installation aid chain member for an installation aid chain may be arranged for positioning and fixing an electric conductor. The installation aid chain member may include a base, at least one coupling arrangement, and a conductor holder. The base may define a support surface. The support surface may support or be able to support the installation aid chain member. The at least one coupling arrangement may be arranged on the base for movably coupling the installation aid chain member to a second installation aid chain member. The conductor holder may be arranged away from the support surface on the base, for retaining a conductor portion of the electric conductor.
