Abstract

A conductor unit includes: a plurality of conductors each including a conducting portion covered with an insulating coating; an annular core that includes a first core constituent portion and a second core constituent portion combined with the first core constituent portion, and that interposes the conductors between the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion; and a holding member that makes the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion press and hold the conductors therebetween.

Claims (22)

1. A conductor unit comprising:

a plurality of conductors each including a conducting portion covered with an insulating coating;

an annular core made of magnetic material that includes a first core constituent portion and a second core constituent portion combined with the first core constituent portion, and that interposes the conductors between the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion; and

a holding member that makes the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion press and hold the conductors therebetween, wherein

the first core constituent portion has a columnar or plate-like shape, and

the conductors are busbars each having a spiral portion into which the first core constituent portion is insertable.

2. The conductor unit according to claim 1 , wherein

the holding member is an adhesive member that bonds the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion together.

4. The conductor unit according to claim 3 , further comprising:

a plurality of connection members electrically connected to the respective conductors; and

a housing member that accommodates the connection members, wherein

the core is accommodated in the housing member, and held by the housing member.

5. The conductor unit according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a plurality of connection members electrically connected to the respective conductors; and

a housing member that accommodates the connection members, wherein

the core is accommodated in the housing member, and held by the housing member.
