Abstract

A method for producing a coil as a measurement transmitter for a sensor, including: providing electrical connections and a magnetic core for the coil, forming a coil former around the magnetic core in such a way that the magnetic core is at least partially enclosed by the coil former and the electrical connections are held by the coil former, winding at least one coil wire onto the formed coil former, and connecting the wound coil wire to the electrical connections.

Claims (24)

1. A method for producing a coil as measuring pickup for a sensor, comprising:

arranging electrical connections and a magnetic core for the coil,

forming a coil former around the magnetic core by forming a receiving body with a cutout, inserting the magnetic core into the cutout, and covering the magnetic core in the cutout with a cover, the coil former formed in such a way that the magnetic core is at least partially enveloped by and held in a fixed position relative to the coil former and the electrical connections are held by the coil former, the coil former including separating elements defining a plurality of separate winding regions,

winding at least one coil wire onto the formed coil former in one of the plurality of separate winding regions such that at least a portion of the at least one coil wire is wound on the cover, and

connecting the wound coil wire to the electrical connections.

2. The method as claimed in claim 1 , comprising

applying a mechanical decoupling material to the magnetic core) prior to closing of the cutout.

3. The method as claimed in claim 1 , comprising:

arranging a deflection pin on the coil former, and

connecting the wound coil wire to one of the electrical connections via the deflection pin.

4. The method as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coil former comprises a thermosetting plastic material.

5. The method as claimed in claim 4 , wherein the thermosetting plastic material is a resin system.

6. The method as claimed in claim 1 , comprising:

forming a housing body around the coil former with the wound coil wire which is connected to the electrical connections.

7. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the coil former and the housing body are formed from a material having an identical coefficient of thermal expansion.

8. The method as claimed in claim 6 , comprising:

arranging an electrically conductive metal sheet between a contact-making point between the electrical connections and a printed circuit board and the coil former,

wherein the housing body is formed around the conductive metal sheet.

9. The method as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the coil former and the housing body are formed from an identical material.

10. A measuring pickup, which is produced using a method for producing a coil as measuring pickup for a sensor, comprising:

arranging electrical connections and a magnetic core for the coil,

forming a coil former around the magnetic core by forming a receiving body, with a cutout, inserting the magnetic core into the cutout, and covering the magnetic core in the cutout with a cover, the coil former formed in such a way that the magnetic core is at least partially enveloped by and held in a fixed position relative to the coil former and the electrical connections are held by the coil former, the coil former including separating elements defining a plurality of separate winding regions,

winding at least one coil wire onto the formed coil former in one of the plurality of separate winding regions such that at least a portion of the at least one coil wire is wound on the cover, and

connecting the wound coil wire to the electrical connections.
