Abstract

An insulated wire containing a thermoplastic resin layer (A) as a covering layer directly or indirectly on a rectangular conductor, in which the insulated wire has at least one protruding part which is continuous in a longitudinal direction of said insulated wire, on a surface of a portion of the thermoplastic resin layer (A), which portion corresponds to at least one side of a cross-section of the insulated wire, said protruding part and a flat part of the surface having the protruding part forms a curved portion with a radius of curvature of 0.01 to 0.75 mm in the cross-section of the insulated wire, and a lateral face of the protruding part has a slope of less than 90° to the flat part of the surface having the protruding part in the cross-section of the insulated wire, a coil produced by processing the insulated wire by winding, and an electric/electronic equipment comprising the coil.

Claims (17)

1. An insulated wire comprising a thermoplastic resin layer (A) as a covering layer directly or indirectly on a rectangular conductor,

wherein the insulated wire has at least one protruding part which is continuous in a longitudinal direction of said insulated wire, on a surface of a portion of the thermoplastic resin layer (A), which portion corresponds to at least one side of a cross-section of the insulated wire,

wherein said protruding part and a flat part of the surface having the protruding part forms a curved portion with a radius of curvature of 0.01 to 0.75 mm in the cross-section of the insulated wire, and

wherein a lateral face of the protruding part has a slope of less than 90° to the flat part of the surface having the protruding part in the cross-section of the insulated wire.

2. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , wherein the lateral face of the protruding part has a slope of 1 to 80° to the flat part of the surface having the protruding part.

3. The insulated wire according to claim 1 ,

wherein the height of the protruding part is 30 μm or more and 3000 μm or less.

4. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , wherein the insulated wire has one of the protruding parts on each surface of the portions of the thermoplastic resin layer (A), which portions correspond to at least a pair of two opposing sides of the cross-section of the insulated wire.

5. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , wherein the insulated wire has two of the protruding parts on each surface of the portions of the thermoplastic resin layer (A), which portions correspond to at least a pair of two opposing sides of the cross-section of the insulated wire.

6. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , wherein the insulated wire has the protruding part on a surface of the portions of the thermoplastic resin layer (A), which portions correspond to short sides of the cross-section of the insulated wire.

7. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , comprising an insulating layer (B) between the rectangular conductor and the thermoplastic resin layer (A),

wherein the insulating layer (B) comprises a thermosetting resin.

8. The insulated wire according to claim 1 ,

wherein a surface roughness Ra of the flat part of the thermoplastic resin layer (A) is 0.01 μm or more and 0.5 μm or less.

9. The insulated wire according to claim 1 , wherein a resin constituting the thermoplastic resin layer (A) is a polyetheretherketone, a polyphenylenesulfide, a polyethylene naphthalate, and/or a thermoplastic polyimide.

10. A coil produced by processing the insulated wire according to claim 1 by winding.

11. An electric/electronic equipment comprising the coil according to claim 10 .
