Abstract

To provide a wire-wound resistor provided with high reliability and that retains the basic functionality of the wire-wound resistor, and a method for manufacturing the same. A wire-wound resistor in which a resistor wire is wound onto an external periphery of a core ( 11 ) obtained by bundling fibrous insulators, and a connection terminal ( 13 ) is attached to both ends of the core ( 11 ) and connected to the resistor wire ( 12 a ), wherein the core ( 11 ) is impregnated with a binder in the portion ( 11 a ) in the vicinity of the external periphery. The binder ( 1 ) is preferably not included in a center portion ( 11 b ) of the core ( 11 ).

Claims (24)

1. A wire-wound resistor in which a resistor wire is wound onto an external periphery of a core obtained by bundling fibrous insulators, and a connection terminal is attached to both ends of the core and connected to the resistor wire,

wherein the core is impregnated with a binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery, and

wherein the core is impregnated with the binder in 5%-70% portion of the core in the cross section.

2. The wire-wound resistor of claim 1 , wherein the binder is not included in a center portion of the core.

3. The wire-wound resistor of claim 1 , wherein the binder is not included in the center portion of the core accommodated in inside of the connection terminals.

4. The wire-wound resistor of claim 1 , wherein a cross section of the core is a polygon at the caulking portion to the connection terminal, and the caulking result does not bite inside.

5. A method for manufacturing a wire-wound resistor comprising:

forming a long length core obtained by bundling fibrous insulators;

winding a resistor wire onto an external periphery of the core;

forming a resistor element by cutting the core into a prescribed size; and

attaching a connection terminal at both ends of the resistor element;

wherein the core is impregnated with a binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery, and

wherein the core is impregnated with the binder in 5%-70% portion of the core in the cross section.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the core is impregnated with a binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery, and the binder is not included in a center portion of the core.

7. The method of claim 5 , wherein by the core, which bundles fibrous insulators, passing through in a tank, which stores the binder, the core is impregnated with the binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein a time of the core passing through in the tank, which stores the binder, is five seconds or less and two seconds or more.

9. The method of claim 5 , wherein by a roller transferring the binder onto the core, which bundles fibrous insulators, the core is impregnated with the binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein transferring the binder is carried out while the core is sandwiched between a pair of rollers in vertical direction.

11. The method of claim 5 , further comprising:

immersing a first part of fibrous insulators in a tank, where a binder is stored, so that the first part of fibrous insulators is impregnated with the binder;

bundling a second part of fibrous insulators without the binder; and

bundling the first part of fibrous insulators with the binder so as to surround the second part of fibrous insulators without the binder.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the fibrous insulators without the binder are folded in by the fibrous insulators with the binder.

13. The method of claim 5 , wherein the binder ran down out face of a wire-winding nozzle, and supplied to the core consisting of a bundle of fibrous insulators, and the core is impregnated with the binder in the portion in the vicinity of the external periphery.
