Three-axis antenna
A three-axis antenna containing: a bobbin for housing a core, made of a resin having an top flange and a bottom flange both of which include four flange pieces at both ends of the winding column in the thickness direction of the core; a first coil and a second coil wound in the spaces between the flange pieces to cross each other at the upper and lower surfaces of the core; and a third coil wound at the side surface of the core and between the top flange and the bottom flange.
1. A three-axis antenna comprising:
a bobbin for housing a core, said bobbin being made of a resin and having a top flange and a bottom flange both of which include four flange pieces at both ends of the winding column in the thickness direction of the core and said bobbin further having an intermediate flange formed between the top and the bottom flanges;
a first coil and a second coil wound in a space between the flange pieces to cross each other at the upper and lower surfaces of the core; and
a third coil wound at the periphery of the core and between the top flange and the bottom flange, the third coil being divided by the intermediate flange.
2. A three-axis antenna of claim 1 , wherein:
the intermediate flange is formed in the space between the flange pieces; and
one of the first and the second coils is divided by the intermediate flange.
3. A three-axis antenna of claim 2 , wherein
the sectional height of the winding column of the first coil and the sectional height of the winding column of the second coil are different from each other.
4. A three-axis antenna of claim 3 , wherein
a metal terminal having a winding portion is implanted into the bottom flange.
5. A three-axis antenna of claim 4 , wherein
a groove for passing the terminal of the coil is provided in the space.
6. A three-axis antenna of claim 1 , wherein
the bobbin is made of a mixture of a magnetic material and a resin.
