Abstract

A coil device includes a bobbin, a main core, and wires. A connection portion located between a first bobbin flange portion and a second bobbin flange portion includes a raised portion protruding along a direction perpendicular to a first axis more than the connection portion located between a first terminal block and a first bobbin flange portion. Communication wire portions connecting first wires of a proximal first coil and first wires of a distal first coil are arranged in a wiring space formed between second wires wound in contact with an upper end of the raised portion and an outer surface of the winding core portion or the bobbin.

Claims (43)

1 . A coil device comprising:

a bobbin;

a main core; and

a wire,

wherein

the bobbin comprises:

a connection portion covering at least a surface of a winding core portion of the main core and wound by the wire together with the winding core portion;

a first terminal block disposed at one end of the connection portion along a first axis; and

a second terminal block disposed at the other end of the connection portion along the first axis,

the wire comprises at least:

a first wire; and

a second wire,

the bobbin comprises:

a first bobbin flange portion disposed separately from the first terminal block at a predetermined interval along the first axis; and

a second bobbin flange portion disposed separately from the first bobbin flange portion at a predetermined interval along the first axis,

the first wire is wound around the winding core portion and the connection portion located between the first terminal block and the first bobbin flange portion so as to constitute a proximal first coil,

the second wire is wound around the winding core portion and the connection portion located between the first bobbin flange portion and the second bobbin flange portion so as to constitute an intermediate second coil,

the first wire is wound around the winding core portion and the connection portion located between the second bobbin flange portion and the second terminal block or between the second bobbin flange portion and a third bobbin flange portion so as to constitute a distal first coil,

the connection portion located between the first bobbin flange portion and the second bobbin flange portion comprises a raised portion protruding along a direction perpendicular to the first axis more than the connection portion located between the first terminal block and the first bobbin flange portion, and

a communication wire portion of the first wire connecting the first wire of the proximal first coil and the first wire of the distal first coil is disposed in a wiring space formed between the second wire wound in contact with a tip of the raised portion and an outer surface of the winding core portion or the bobbin.

2 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein the raised portion protrudes along a direction perpendicular to the first axis more than the connection portion located between the second terminal block and the second bobbin flange portion.

3 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein

the second bobbin flange portion comprises a guide portion for guiding the second wire from the intermediate second coil towards the second terminal block, and

the second wire guided via the guide portion is wired in the air above the distal first coil and goes to the second terminal block.

4 . The coil device according to claim 3 , wherein the second wire from the intermediate second coil is connected to a second terminal attached to the second terminal block via the guide portion.

5 . The coil device according to claim 4 , wherein the guide portion comprises a guide groove recessed from an outer circumferential edge of the second bobbin flange portion at a position different from that of the raised portion along a circumferential direction.

6 . The coil device according to claim 3 , further comprising a third bobbin flange portion, wherein

the second wire is wound around the winding core portion and the connection portion located between the third bobbin flange portion and the second bobbin flange portion so as to constitute a distal second coil, and

the second wire wound in the intermediate second coil and the second wire wound in the distal second coil are continuous via the guide portion.

7 . The coil device according to claim 6 , wherein the second wire from the distal second coil is connected to a second terminal attached to the second terminal block.

8 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein the first wire from the proximal first coil is connected to a first terminal attached to the first terminal block.

9 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein the raised portion of the bobbin protrudes towards a mounting surface and/or an anti-mounting surface.

10 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein the raised portion of the bobbin protrudes towards a direction parallel to a mounting surface.

11 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein

the main core comprises a pair of core flange portions provided at both ends along a winding axis of the winding core portion, and

each of the terminal blocks is formed with a flange accommodation recess for accommodating each of the core flange portions.

12 . The coil device according to claim 1 , wherein

the first terminal block and the second terminal block are integrally formed with the connection portion,

the connection portion comprises at least a pair of connection side portions covering both sides of the winding core portion, and

the first wire or the second wire is continuously wound so as to contact with an upper surface or a lower surface of the winding core portion.

13 . The coil device according to claim 12 , wherein

the connection portion further comprises a bottom wall formed by integrating the pair of connection side portions and covering the lower surface of the winding core portion, and

the first wire is continuously wound so as to contact with the pair of connection side portions and the bottom wall and contact with the upper surface of the winding core portion or an upper end of the connection side portions.
