Abstract

In a multilayer coil which winds “n” wire rods ( 4 ) (“n” is an integer number of two or more) in line around a winding core ( 2 ) having a cross section of a polygonal shape. An intersection portion ( 5 ) is formed on a face where feeding of the winding core is made by feeding the wire rods by an amount of “n” wire rods during a period when the wire rods ( 4 ) are wound by one round around the winding core ( 2 ), so that the wire rods in a lower layer and an upper layer intersect therein. A twist portion ( 6 ) is formed at an end of at least one face out of the faces where the feeding is made, wherein two wire rods out of “n” wire rods are twisted to replace an arrangement of the wire rods.

Claims (39)

1. A multilayer coil which winds “n” wire rods (“n” is an integer number of two or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

an intersection portion which is formed on “n” faces of the winding core and in which the wire rods in a lower layer and an upper layer intersect by feeding the wire rods by an amount of one wire rod; and

a twist portion which is formed on “n−1” faces out of the “n” faces, in which two wire rods are twisted to replace an arrangement of the wire rods.

2. The multilayer coil according to claim 1 , wherein:

the two wire rods to be twisted include:

a wire rod moving on from the lower layer to the upper layer; and

a wire rod a winding direction of which is opposite to a winding direction of the wire rod in the lower layer.

3. A multilayer coil which winds “n” sets of two wire rods (“n” is an integer number of one or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

an intersection portion which is formed on “n” faces of the winding core and in which the wire rods in a lower layer and an upper layer intersect by feeding the wire rods by an amount of two wire rods; and

a twist portion which is formed on the “n” faces and in which two wire rods are twisted to replace an arrangement of the wire rods.

4. The multilayer coil according to claim 3 , wherein:

the two wire rods to be twisted include wire rods moving on from the lower layer to the upper layer.

5. The multilayer coil according to claim 3 , wherein:

in a case where the “n” is an integer number of two or more, “n” sets of the two wire rods each begin to be wound from a different face of the winding core.

6. A multilayer coil which winds “n” wire rods (“n” is an integer number of two or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

an intersection portion which is formed on faces where feeding of the winding core is made and in which the wire rods in a lower layer and an upper layer intersect by feeding the wire rods by an amount of “n” wire rods during a period when the wire rods are wound by one round around the winding core; and

a twist portion in which two wire rods out of the “n” wire rods are twisted to replace an arrangement of the wire rods at an end of at least one face out of the faces where the feeding of the winding core is made.

7. A winding method of a multilayer coil which winds “n” wire rods (“n” is an integer number of two or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

feeding the wire rod by an amount of one wire rod on “n” faces of the winding core; and

replacing an arrangement of the wire rods on “n−1” faces out of the “n” faces by twisting two wire rods thereon as the wire rod moving on from a lower layer to an upper layer and the wire rod a winding direction of which is opposite to a winding direction of the wire rod in the lower layer.

8. A winding method of a multilayer coil which winds “n” sets of two wire rods (“n” is an integer number of one or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

feeding the wire rod by an amount of two wire rods on “n” faces of the winding core; and

replacing an arrangement of the wire rods by twisting two wire rods moving on from a lower layer to an upper layer on the “n” faces.

9. The winding method of the multilayer coil according to claim 8 , wherein:

in a case where the “n” is an integer number of two or more, the “n” sets of the two wire rods each begin to be wound from a different face of the winding core.

10. A winding method of a multilayer coil which winds “n” wire rods (“n” is an integer number of two or more) in line around a winding core having a cross section of a polygonal shape, comprising:

feeding the wire rod by an amount of “n” wire rods during a period when the wire rods is wound by one round around the wire core; and

replacing an arrangement of the wire rods by twisting two wire rods out of the “n” wire rods at an end of at least one face out of the faces where the feeding of the winding core is made.

11. A winding apparatus of a multilayer coil, comprising:

a spindle shaft rotating around an axis together with a winding core on which wire rods are wound;

a plurality of nozzles leading the wire rods to the winding core;

wire rod feeding mechanism which travels the nozzles in an axial direction of the winding core; and

wire rod twist mechanism which twists the wire rods by replacing locations of the nozzles.

12. The winding apparatus of the multilayer coil according to claim 11 , wherein:

the plurality of the nozzles are supported integrally with and by a nozzle support; and

the wire rod twist mechanism includes nozzle support rotating mechanism which rotates the nozzle support.

13. The winding apparatus of the multilayer coil according to claim 11 , wherein:

the plurality of the nozzles each are supported by the nozzle support individually; and

the wire rod twist mechanism travels the nozzle support in the axial direction of the winding core individually.
