DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS
(11) Hereinafter, the bobbin for coil according to the present invention, and the coil device having the bobbin, and the method for manufacturing the coil device will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
(12) Note that the present invention is not limited only to examples disclosed herein, and various modifications can be made thereto without changing the gist of the present invention.
(13) As illustrated in
(14) Note that in the Examples, the bobbin for coil 1 is formed from an insulating synthetic resin.
(15) As illustrated in
(16) In the Examples, the first bobbin body 2 is configured such that the flange portion 2c on one end side of the first bobbin body is connected to the flange portion 3b on one end side of the second bobbin body 3 through the connecting part 4.
(17) The second bobbin body 3 has the approximately same configuration as the first bobbin body 2 except that one flange portion of a pair of flat plate-shaped flange portions is integrally formed with a case body 5a configuring the connector part 5.
(18) That is, in
(19) In
(20) In case that a coil device for solenoid is configured by winding a conductor wire around the bobbin for coil 1, the insertion holes 2d and 3d are used for arranging the iron core (for example, plunger) or the like inside thereof.
(21) As illustrated in
(22) In
(23) The guide grooves 4e and 4f configure a conductor wire-guide portion for guiding one end (winding-start side) and the other end (winding-finish side) of a conductor wire, which is wound around an outer peripheral portion of the barrel part of the bobbin body (first bobbin body 2 in
(24) Thus, the ribs formed on both ends (ribs 4b and 4d) allow the winding of the conductor wire to be easy, and allow the position of the conductor wire to be stabled, and allow the damage of the conductor wire due to exterior influences to be prevented.
(25) Note that the rib (rib 4c) formed on a center can bring to an insulating state by isolating between two conductor wires which are disposed on an outer face in a radical direction of the connecting part 4; however, the rib is not always required as long as an insulating state is formed, for example, by covering the conductor wire(s) itself.
(26) The connector part 5 is provided on one axial end of the bobbin for coil, and as illustrated in
(27) Note that in
(28) Furthermore, in
(29) As illustrated in
(30) In
(31) Furthermore, in
(32) In
(33) In
(34) The lateral side opening portions 57a and 57a are used in inserting male terminals, which are provided with various apparatus, into the connecting terminals 61 and 62, which are configured by a female terminal, when the male terminals are electrically contacted with the connecting terminals.
(35) Furthermore, as illustrated in
(36) In
(37) Both of the connecting terminals 61 and 62 are formed from a material having conductivity, and are configured to have the one end connected electrically to a conductor wire and the other end connected electrically by contacting with contact portions of external terminals (not illustrated) provided with the external connector of the opposite party (various apparatus).
(38) Note that in the Examples, the connecting terminals 61 and 62 are formed from a material having spring properties as well as conductivity; however, the configuration of connecting terminal is not particularly limited as long as the connecting terminal is formed from at least a material having conductivity so as to connect electrically to the external terminal of the external connector as a terminal.
(39) In
(40) The engaging portion 61b (or 62b) is formed by bending the front end portion in a longitudinal direction of the terminal body 61a (or 62a), and is formed in a U-shaped opening outwardly (leftwardly in the engaging portion 61b, rightwardly in the engaging portion 62b, in
(41) The elastic contact portion 61c (or 62c) is formed by bending the tip portions of the engaging portion 61b (or 62b) vertically backward to make them parallel to the terminal body 61a (or 62a), and contacts with external terminal of the external connector.
(42) Thus, the elastic contact portion 61c (or 62c) is elastically displaceable in the plate thickness direction, and can contact elastically with the external terminal (male terminal), which is inserted from the lateral side opening portion 57a.
(43) The conductor wire-connecting portion 61d (or 62d) is formed protruding upward from the rear edge side in a longitudinal direction of the terminal body 61a (or 62a) to connect electrically to a conductor wire.
(44) Furthermore, conductor wire-guide portion 61e (or 62e) is formed by folding back the extension piece, which is protruded from the rear end edge of the terminal body 61a (or 62a), to guide a conductor wire.
(45) As described above, the press-in grooves 55a and 55a, into which the connecting terminals 61 and 62 are pressed, are provided in right and left end portions of the stepped portion 53a of the case body 5a. The press-in grooves 55a and 55a are formed by notching in a prescribed depth so as to match with each shape of the connecting terminals. The engaging projections 56a and 56a, which engage with engaging portions 61b and 62b, are formed protruding upward in the press-in grooves 55a and 55a.
(46) Thus, the connecting terminal 61 (or 62) is held in the case body 5a by pressing the terminal body 61a (or 62a) into the press-in groove 55a in a state where the engaging portion 61b (or 62b) engages with the engaging projection 56a.
(47) Note that in the Examples, a female terminal is selected for a connecting terminal; however, an embodiment of the terminal may be selected according to an embodiment of the external terminal provided with the apparatus to be attached.
(48) As illustrated in
(49) The terminal body 63a is held in the press-in groove 55b of the case body 5a.
(50) The conductor wire-connecting portion 63b is for electrically connecting to a conductor wire. In
(51) As described above, in
(52) Thus, the relay terminal 63 is held in the case body 5a by pressing the terminal body 63a into the press-in groove 55b.
(53) Note that in the Examples, the connecting terminals 61 and 62 and the relay terminal 63 are attached to the case body 5a by pressing their terminals into the press-in grooves 55a, 55a and 55b; however, the connecting terminals 61 and 62 and the relay terminal 63 can be provided in the case body 5a by using a known method such as a method of burying the terminal metal fitting into the case body through integral molding.
(54) In
(55) In addition, a through hole 59b is formed on a center portion of the case cover 5b so as to correspond to the through hole 59a, which formed on a center portion of the case body 5a. As illustrated in
(56) In case that a coil device for solenoid is configured by winding a conductor wire around the bobbin for coil 1, the through holes are used for arranging the iron core (for example, plunger) or the like inside thereof.
(57) As illustrated in
(58) The coil device can be produced, for example, by connecting one end (winding-start end portion) of a conductor wire 9 electrically to one connecting terminal 61, which is provided with the connector part 5; and further drawing a conductor wire, which is led out from the winding-start end portion of the conductor wire 9, in the order of the conductor wire-guide portion 58a and the guide groove 4e; and then winding it around the barrel part 2a of the bobbin body (first bobbin body) 2, which does not have a connector part 5, in a winding direction X to draw in the order of the guide groove 4f and the conductor wire-guide portion 58b; and connecting the other end (winding-finish end portion) electrically to the relay terminal 63 provided in the center; and thereafter connecting one end (winding-start end portion) of an another conductor wire 10 electrically to the other connecting terminal 62; and further drawing a conductor wire, which is led out from the winding-finish end portion of the conductor wire 9, in the conductor wire-guide portion 58b; and then winding it around the barrel part 3a of the bobbin body (second bobbin body) 3, which has the connector part 5, in a winding direction X to draw the conductor wire-guide portion 58c; and connecting the other end (winding-finish end portion) electrically to the relay terminal 63 provided in the center.
(59) In addition, in another embodiment, as illustrated in
(60) In this case, a terminal metal fitting configuring a connector part 105 can be configured by only a pair of connecting terminals 161 and 162. Thus, a coil device can be easily produced (manufactured) inexpensively, only by connecting one end (winding-start end portion) of a conductor wire 109, which configures each electromagnetic coils 107 and 108, electrically to one connecting terminal 161, and connecting the other end (winding-finish end portion) electrically to the other connecting terminal 162.
(61) The winding one conductor wire 109 to both of the outer peripheral portions of the barrel parts 102a and 103a may be conducted by hand or by using a prescribed winding device.
(62) In the case of using the winding device, as illustrated in
(63) As illustrated in
(64) Such a configuration allows the conductor wire 109 to be caught to an inside sidewall of the rib 104d when drawing the conductor wire 109 in the guide groove 104f, thus the conductor wire 109 is easily disposed in the guide groove 104f.
(65) As illustrated in
(66) Such a configuration allows the conductor wire 109 to be caught to a rib 104b-side sidewall of the rib 104c when drawing the conductor wire 109 in the guide groove 104e, thus the conductor wire 109 is easily disposed in the guide groove 104e.
(67) Thus, the coil device can be produced by hand or by using a prescribed winding device, for example, by connecting one end (winding-start end portion) of a conductor wire 109 electrically to one connecting terminal 161, which is provided with the connector part 105; and further drawing a conductor wire, which is led out from the winding-start end portion of the conductor wire 109, in the conductor wire-guide portion 158a; and then winding it around the barrel part 103a of the bobbin body (second bobbin body) 103, which has a connector part 105, in a winding direction X to draw in the guide groove 104f; and additionally winding it around the barrel part 102a of the bobbin body (first bobbin body) 102, which does not have the connector part 105, in a winding direction X to draw in the order of the guide groove 104e and the conductor wire-guide portion 58c; and connecting the other end (winding-finish end portion) electrically to the other connecting terminal 162.
(68) Note that in the Examples, the conductor wire is wound around the barrel part 103a of the second bobbin body 103 in a winding direction X first, and then is wound around the barrel part 102a of the first bobbin body 102 in a winding direction X; however, the order, around which the conductor wire is wound, and the winding direction are particularly limited. A conductor wire may be wound around the barrel part 102a of the first bobbin body 102 first. The winding direction may be a direction opposite to the X direction.
(69) The coil device having such configuration is used as a coil device for various electronic apparatus, in particular, solenoid.
(70)
(71) In
(72) As illustrated in
(73) The plunger 15a and the stoppers 15b and 15c are formed from iron or the like, and all of them have a cylindrical shape and have an outer diameter approximately equal to the inner diameter of the barrel part (outer diameter of the through holes) of the bobbin for coil 101.
(74) The pair of stoppers 15b and 15c are configured to have one side (15b in
(75) The solenoid S having such a configuration is connected to a power source of various apparatus. In the solenoid S, in a state where an energization is not conducted, by a pair of magnets 13 and 14 provided at an axial center portion of the coupling body 104, the plunger 15a is disposed in the vicinity of the center portion in a stationary state. On the other hand, when one electromagnetic coil of electromagnetic coils, which are wound around the barrel parts of the bobbin bodies coupled through the coupling body 104, is energized, the plunger 15a is oscillated freely in the direction of the electromagnetic coil, which is energized.
INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
(76) The bobbin for coil according to the present invention enables to produce (manufacture) inexpensively a small coil device, which is easily attached to various apparatus without providing a lead wire by using the bobbin for coil. Thus, the bobbin for coil can be used in a wide range of fields.
