DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

(13) Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be explained below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First Embodiment

(14) FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the configuration of a coil component according to the first embodiment of the present invention.

(15) As illustrated in FIG. 1, the coil component according to the present embodiment includes an insulating substrate 11, a first coil part 100 formed on one surface 11a of the insulating substrate 11, and a second coil part 200 formed on the other surface 11b of the insulating substrate 11. Although details will be described later, an inner peripheral end Ti of the first coil part 100 and an inner peripheral end Ti of the second coil part 200 are connected to each other through a connection part THa penetrating the insulating substrate 11.

(16) Although there is no particular restriction on the material for the insulating substrate 11, a transparent or translucent flexible material such as PET resin may be used. Alternatively, the insulating substrate 11 may be a flexible substrate obtained by impregnating glass cloth with epoxy-based resin. When the insulating substrate 11 is transparent or translucent, the first coil part 100 and second coil part 200 are seen overlapping each other in a plan view. Thus, outer appearance inspection using an outer appearance inspection device becomes difficult depending on how they overlap each other. Although details will be described later, in the coil component according to the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are disposed overlapping each other for the most part so as to allow outer appearance inspection using an outer appearance inspection device to be executed properly.

(17) FIG. 2 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of the first coil part 100 as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11.

(18) As illustrated in FIG. 2, the first coil part 100 is constituted of a planar conductor spirally wound in a plurality of turns. In the example of FIG. 2, the first coil part 100 has five turns including turns 101 to 105, in which the turns 101 and 105 are positioned at the outermost and innermost peripheries, respectively. An outer peripheral end To of the first coil part 100 is connected to a terminal electrode E1a through a radially extending lead-out pattern 110. Further, a radially extending lead-out pattern 120 is provided peripherally adjacent to the lead-out pattern 110, and the leading end portion thereof is connected to a terminal electrode E2b.

(19) The turns 101 to 105 constituting the first coil part 100 each have a circumference region A1 in which the radial position is not changed and a shift region B1 in which the radial position is shifted. The five turns including the turns 101 to 105 are defined with the shift region B1 as a boundary. As illustrated in FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, both the outer peripheral end To and inner peripheral end Ti of the first coil part 100 are positioned within the shift region B1. Further, when a virtual line L0 radially extending from a center point C of the first coil part 100 and passing between the lead-out patterns 110 and 120 is drawn, the shift region B is positioned on the virtual line L0. Further, the inner peripheral end Ti of the first coil part 100 is also positioned on the virtual line L0.

(20) FIG. 3 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of the second coil part 200 as viewed from the surface 11b side of the insulating substrate 11.

(21) As illustrated in FIG. 3, the second coil part 200 has the same pattern shape as the first coil part 100. Accordingly, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 can be manufactured using the same mask, allowing the manufacturing cost to be significantly reduced. The second coil part 200 has five turns including turns 201 to 205, in which the turns 201 and 205 are positioned at the outermost and innermost peripheries, respectively. An outer peripheral end To of the second coil part 200 is connected to a terminal electrode Eta through a radially extending lead-out pattern 210. Further, a radially extending lead-out pattern 220 is provided peripherally adjacent to the lead-out pattern 210, and the leading end portion thereof is connected to a terminal electrode E1b.

(22) The turns 201 to 205 constituting the second coil part 200 each have a circumference region A2 in which the radial position is not changed and a shift region B2 in which the radial position is shifted. As described above, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 have the same planar shape, so that the virtual line L0 passes between the outer peripheral end To of the first coil part 100 and the outer peripheral end To of the second coil part 200. The inner peripheral end Ti of the second coil part 200 is also positioned on the virtual line L0.

(23) The thus configured first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are formed on the surfaces 11a and 11b of the insulating substrate 11, respectively.

(24) FIG. 4 is a transparent plan view illustrating how the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 overlap each other as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11.

(25) As illustrated in FIG. 4, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are formed on the front and back surfaces of the insulating substrate 11, respectively, such that the center points C thereof coincide with each other and that the terminal electrodes E1a and E2a overlap the terminal electrodes E1b and E2b, respectively. As a result, the circumference regions A1 of the respective turns 101 to 105 constituting the first coil part 100 and the circumference regions A2 of the respective turns 201 to 205 constituting the second coil part 200 overlap each other for the most part in a plan view. Further, the inner peripheral end Ti of the first coil part 100 and the inner peripheral end Ti of the second coil part 200 are connected to each other through the connection part THa penetrating the insulating substrate 11. As a result, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are connected in series to each other as illustrated in FIG. 5, thereby constituting a spiral coil of 10 turns in total.

(26) Further, the lead-out patterns 110 and 220 are connected to each other through a connection part THb penetrating the insulating substrate 11. Similarly, the lead-out patterns 120 and 210 are connected to each other through a connection part THc penetrating the insulating substrate 11. As a result, the terminal electrodes E1a and E1b are short-circuited, and the terminal electrodes E2a and E2b are short-circuited. Although four connection parts THa, three connection parts THb, and three connection parts THc are formed in the present embodiment, the number of each of the connection portions is not particularly limited.

(27) The above is the configuration of the coil component according to the present embodiment. As described above, the coil component according to the present embodiment is constituted of the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 having the same planar shape, so that the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 can be manufactured using the mask having the same pattern shape, allowing the manufacturing cost to be significantly reduced. In addition, the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 overlap each other for the most part in a plan view excluding a portion overlapping the shift regions B1 and B2, so that even when the insulating substrate 11 is transparent or translucent, visual interference between the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 can be minimized. That is, when the outer appearance of the first coil part 100 is inspected, the second coil part 200 does not serve as a visual obstruction and, conversely, when the outer appearance of the second coil part 200 is inspected, the first coil part 100 does not serve as visual obstruction. This allows outer appearance inspection using an outer appearance inspection device to be executed properly.

(28) Further, in the coil component according to the present embodiment, the outer peripheral ends To and inner peripheral ends Ti of the first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are disposed within the shift region (B1, B2). Thus, although the outer peripheral end To of the first coil part 100 and the outer peripheral end To of the second coil part 200 are disposed adjacent to each other, it is possible to prevent increase in the size of the outer shape of the coil component or reduction in the size of the coil inner diameter region due to enlargement of the circumference regions A1 and A2.

Second Embodiment

(29) Next, a coil component according to the second embodiment will be described. The coil component according to the second embodiment differs from the coil component according to the first embodiment in that the above-described first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are replaced by first and second coil parts 100A and 200A. Other configurations are the same as those of the coil component according to the first embodiment, so the same reference numerals are given to the same elements, and overlapping description will be omitted.

(30) FIG. 6 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of the first coil part 100A as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11. Also in the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100A and 200A have the same pattern shape, so reference numerals corresponding to the second coil part 200A are given in parentheses in FIG. 6.

(31) As illustrated in FIG. 6, the first coil part 100A differs from the first coil part 100 illustrated in FIG. 2 in that a turn 106 is added to the inner peripheral side of the turn 105. The conductor width of the turn 106 is about half the conductor width of each of the turns 101 to 105. The inner peripheral end of the turn 105 is branched from the turn 106 and has a connection part THa1. On the other hand, a connection part THa2 is formed at the inner peripheral end of the turn 106. The connection parts THa1 and THa2 are formed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0.

(32) Thus, when the first and second coil parts 100A and 200A are put one over the other through the insulating substrate 11, the inner peripheral end of the turn 105 of the first coil part 100A and the inner peripheral end of the turn 206 of the second coil part 200A are connected through the connection part THa1, and the inner peripheral end of the turn 106 of the first coil part 100A and the inner peripheral end of the turn 205 of the second coil part 200A are connected through the connection part THa2. As a result, a spiral coil of 11 turns in total is constituted, that is, it is possible to realize a spiral coil of an odd number of turns although the coil parts having the same pattern shape are used on the front and back surfaces of the insulating substrate 11.

Third Embodiment

(33) Next, a coil component according to the third embodiment will be described. The coil component according to the third embodiment differs from the coil component according to the first embodiment in that the above-described first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are replaced by first and second coil parts 100B and 200B. Other configurations are the same as those of the coil component according to the first embodiment, so the same reference numerals are given to the same elements, and overlapping description will be omitted.

(34) FIG. 7 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of the first coil part 100B as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11. Also in the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100B and 200B have the same pattern shape, so reference numerals corresponding to the second coil part 200B are given in parentheses in FIG. 7.

(35) As illustrated in FIG. 7, the first coil part 100B has six turns including turns 101 to 106 and, thus, a spiral coil of 12 turns in total is constituted. The turns 101 to 106 are each radially separated by a spiral-shaped slit. As a result, the turns 101 to 106 are separated into conductor parts 101a to 106a positioned at the outer peripheral side and conductor parts 101b to 106b positioned at the inner peripheral side. A connection part THa3 is formed at the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106a of the turn 106 which is the innermost turn, and a connection part THa4 is formed at the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106b of the turn 106. The connection parts THa3 and THa4 are formed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0.

(36) Thus, when the first and second coil parts 100B and 200B are put one over the other through the insulating substrate 11, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106a of the first coil part 100B and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 206b of the second coil part 200B are connected through the connection part THa3, and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106b of the first coil part 100B and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 206a of the second coil part 200B are connected through the connection part THa4.

(37) As described above, in the coil component according to the present embodiment, each turn is radially separated by the spiral-shaped slit, so that non-uniformity of current density distribution is reduced as compared to a case where such a slit is not formed. As a result, DC resistance or AC resistance can be reduced. In addition, the conductor parts 101a to 106a positioned at the outer peripheral side in the first coil part 100B are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201b to 206b positioned at the inner peripheral side in the second coil part 200B, and the conductor parts 101b to 106b positioned at the inner peripheral side in the first coil part 100B are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201a to 206a positioned at the outer peripheral side in the second coil part 200B, thereby canceling the inner/outer peripheral difference. This further uniformizes current density distribution, allowing further reduction in DC resistance or AC resistance.

(38) Further, as compared to the first and second embodiments, the positions of the terminal electrodes E1a and E2b are interchanged. Thus, in the present invention, the positional relationship between the terminal electrodes E1a and E2b can arbitrarily be set.

Fourth Embodiment

(39) FIG. 8 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of a first coil part 100C according to the fourth embodiment as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11.

(40) In the first coil part 100C, the conductor part 106b included in the first coil part 100B illustrated in FIG. 7 is removed, and a connection part THa5 is formed at the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105b. Other configurations are the same as those of the coil part 100B illustrated in FIG. 7, so the same reference numerals are given to the same elements, and overlapping description will be omitted. Also in the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100C and 200C have the same pattern shape, so reference numerals corresponding to the second coil part 200C are given in parentheses in FIG. 8.

(41) As illustrated in FIG. 8, the connection parts THa3 and THa5 are disposed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0. Thus, when the first and second coil parts 100C and 200C are put one over the other through the insulating substrate 11, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106a of the first coil part 100C and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205b of the second coil part 200C are connected through the connection part THa3, and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105b of the first coil part 100C and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 206a of the second coil part 200C are connected through the connection part THa5.

(42) As a result, a spiral coil of 11 turns in total is constituted, that is, it is possible to realize a spiral coil of an odd number of turns although the coil parts having the same pattern shape are used on the front and back surfaces of the insulating substrate 11.

Fifth Embodiment

(43) Next, a coil component according to the fifth embodiment will be described. The coil component according to the fifth embodiment differs from the coil component according to the first embodiment in that the above-described first and second coil parts 100 and 200 are replaced by first and second coil parts 100D and 200D. Other configurations are the same as those of the coil component according to the first embodiment, so the same reference numerals are given to the same elements, and overlapping description will be omitted.

(44) FIG. 9 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of the first coil part 100D as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11. Also in the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100D and 200D have the same pattern shape, so reference numerals corresponding to the second coil part 200D are given in parentheses in FIG. 9.

(45) As illustrated in FIG. 9, the first coil part 100D has five turns including turns 101 to 105 and, thus, a spiral coil of 10 turns in total is constituted. The turns 101 to 105 are each radially separated into four sections by three spiral-shaped slits. As a result, the turns 101 to 105 are separated, respectively, into conductor parts 101a to 105a positioned at the outermost peripheral side, conductor parts 101b to 105b positioned at the second outermost peripheral side, conductor parts 101c to 105c positioned at the second innermost peripheral side, and conductor parts 101d to 105d positioned at the innermost peripheral side. Connection parts THa6 to THa9 are formed at the inner peripheral ends of the respective conductor parts 105a to 105d of the innermost turn 105. The connection parts THa6 and THa9 are disposed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0, and the connection parts THa7 and THa8 are also disposed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0.

(46) Thus, when the first and second coil parts 100D and 200D are put one over the other through the insulating substrate 11, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105a of the first coil part 100D and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205d of the second coil part 200D are connected through the connection part THa6, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105b of the first coil part 100D and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205c of the second coil part 200D are connected through the connection part THa7, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105c of the first coil part 100D and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205b of the second coil part 200D are connected through the connection part THa8, and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105d of the first coil part 100D and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205a of the second coil part 200D are connected through the connection part THa9.

(47) As described above, in the coil component according to the present embodiment, each turn is radially separated into four sections by the three spiral-shaped slits, so that non-uniformity of current density distribution is further reduced. As a result, DC resistance or AC resistance can be further reduced. In addition, the conductor parts 101a to 105a positioned at the outermost peripheral side in the first coil part 100D are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201d to 205d positioned at the innermost peripheral side in the second coil part 200D, the conductor parts 101b to 105b positioned at the second outermost peripheral side in the first coil part 100D are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201c to 205c positioned at the second innermost peripheral side in the second coil part 200D, the conductor parts 101c to 105c positioned at the second innermost peripheral side in the first coil part 100D are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201b to 205b positioned at the second outermost peripheral side in the second coil part 200D, and the conductor parts 101d to 105d positioned at the innermost peripheral side in the first coil part 100D are connected respectively to the conductor parts 201a to 205a positioned at the outermost peripheral side in the second coil part 200D, thereby canceling the inner/outer peripheral difference. This further uniformizes current density distribution, allowing further reduction in DC resistance or AC resistance.

Sixth Embodiment

(48) FIG. 10 is a plan view illustrating the pattern shape of a first coil part 100E according to the sixth embodiment as viewed from the surface 11a side of the insulating substrate 11.

(49) In the first coil part 100E, conductor parts 106a and 106b are added to the first coil part 100D illustrated in FIG. 9, and connection parts THa10 and THa11 are formed at the inner peripheral ends of the conductor parts 106a and 106b, respectively. Other configurations are the same as those of the first coil part 100D illustrated in FIG. 9, so the same reference numerals are given to the same elements, and overlapping description will be omitted. Also in the present embodiment, the first and second coil parts 100E and 200E have the same pattern shape, so reference numerals corresponding to the second coil part 200E are given in parentheses in FIG. 10.

(50) As illustrated in FIG. 10, the connection parts THa6 and THa11 are disposed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0, and the connection parts THa7 and THa10 are also disposed so as to be symmetrical with respect to the virtual line L0. Thus, when the first and second coil parts 100E and 200E are put one over the other through the insulating substrate 11, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105c of the first coil part 100E and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 206b of the second coil part 200E are connected through the connection part THa6, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 105d of the first coil part 100E and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 206c of the second coil part 200E are connected through the connection part THa7, the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106a of the first coil part 100E and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205d of the second coil part 200E are connected through the connection part THa10, and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 106b of the first coil part 100E and the inner peripheral end of the conductor part 205c of the second coil part 200E are connected through the connection part THa11.

(51) As a result, a spiral coil of 11 turns in total is constituted, that is, it is possible to realize a spiral coil of an odd number of turns although the coil parts having the same pattern shape are used on the front and back surfaces of the insulating substrate 11.

(52) It is apparent that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but may be modified and changed without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention.
