Inductance element, method for manufacturing the same, and switching power supply using the same
View Patent ↗An inductance element ( 1 ) includes a doughnut-shaped magnetic core ( 2 ) and a bottomed container ( 3 ) for housing the doughnut-shaped magnetic core ( 2 ). The bottomed container ( 3 ) has a cylindrical outer wall portion, a cylindrical inner wall portion, a bottom portion, an open section and a hollow portion. The open section of the bottomed container ( 3 ) is covered with an adhesive portion ( 4 ) for integrally fixing the doughnut-shaped magnetic core ( 2 ) and the bottomed container ( 3 ). The adhesive portion ( 4 ) has an extended portion ( 4 a ) extended in the cylindrical inner wall portion. The ratio (B/A) of a length (B) of the extended portion ( 4 a ) to a height (A) of the cylindrical inner wall portion is in a range of 0.1 to 0.5.
1. An inductance element, comprising:
a doughnut-shaped magnetic core;
a bottomed container having a cylindrical outer wall portion, a cylindrical inner wall portion arranged within the cylindrical outer wall portion, a bottom portion disposed at an end of each of the cylindrical outer wall portion and the cylindrical inner wall portion to close a space between them, an open section provided at the other end of each of the cylindrical outer wall portion and the cylindrical inner wall portion and a hollow portion disposed within the cylindrical inner wall portion, wherein the doughnut-shaped magnetic core is housed between the cylindrical outer wall portion and the cylindrical inner wall portion; and
an adhesive portion, disposed on the side of the open section of the bottomed container, integrally fixing the doughnut-shaped magnetic core and the bottomed container,
wherein the adhesive portion has an extended portion extended into the cylindrical inner wall portion, and a ratio (B/A) of a length (B) of the extended portion to a height (A) of the cylindrical inner wall portion is in a range of 0.1 to 0.5.
2. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein the open section of the bottomed container including the hollow portion is covered with the adhesive portion.
3. The inductance element according to claim 2 ,
wherein at least a lead insertion part selected from a concave, a hole and a notch is formed in the adhesive portion.
4. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein the doughnut-shaped magnetic core has a wound body of a magnetic alloy ribbon or a stacked body of magnetic alloy ribbons.
5. The inductance element according to claim 4 ,
wherein the magnetic alloy ribbon is provided with an amorphous magnetic alloy ribbon.
6. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein the adhesive portion penetrates to a range of 5 to 30% of a cross-sectional area of the doughnut-shaped magnetic core.
7. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein the adhesive portion is formed of a cured body of an acryl modified silicone resin-based adhesive.
8. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein a conductive lead portion is inserted into the hollow portion of the bottomed container.
9. The inductance element according to claim 1 ,
wherein a ratio (C/A) of a height (C) of the cylindrical outer wall portion to the height (A) of the cylindrical inner wall portion is in a range of 0.6 to 1.3.
10. A method for manufacturing an inductance element, comprising:
housing a doughnut-shaped magnetic core into a bottomed container having a cylindrical outer wall portion, a cylindrical inner wall portion disposed within the cylindrical outer wall portion, a bottom portion disposed at an end of each of the cylindrical outer wall portion and the cylindrical inner wall portion to close a space between them, an open section provided at the other end of each of the cylindrical outer wall portion and the cylindrical inner wall portion and a hollow portion disposed within the cylindrical inner wall portion;
coating an adhesive on a side of the open section of the bottomed container in which the doughnut-shaped magnetic core is housed; and
forming an adhesive portion, which integrally fixes the doughnut-shaped magnetic core and the bottomed container, by drying the adhesive for curing.
11. The method for manufacturing an inductance element according to claim 10 ,
wherein the adhesive is dried at a temperature in a range of 90 to 150° C.
12. The method for manufacturing an inductance element according to claim 10 ,
wherein the adhesive portion is formed to extend into the cylindrical inner wall portion, and a ratio (B/A) of a length (B) of a portion having the adhesive portion extended to a height (A) of the cylindrical inner wall portion is in a range of 0.1 to 0.5.
13. The method for manufacturing an inductance element according to claim 10 ,
wherein the open section including the hollow portion of the bottomed container is covered with the adhesive portion.
14. The method for manufacturing an inductance element according to claim 10 , further comprising,
forming at least a lead insertion part selected from a concave, a hole and a notch, in the adhesive portion.
15. A switching power supply comprising the inductance element according to claim 1 as a noise suppression element.
