Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

An isolation transformer wherein in a first coil group of a pair of coil groups provided in an isolation transformer, an inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in a positive direction of a z axis and then drawn out to an outer peripheral side of a primary side coil as a first inner peripheral side lead wire, and in a second coil group, the inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in a negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil as a second inner peripheral side lead wire. The first inner peripheral side lead wire and the second inner peripheral side lead wire are then connected to each other, such that respective inner peripheral side end portions are connected to each other in series.

First claim

The isolation transformer according to claim 1 , wherein the first inner peripheral side lead wire of the first coil group is passed through a central hole in the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil, and the second inner peripheral side lead wire of the second coil group is passed through a central hole in the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil. 3. The isolation transformer according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first coil group, a first groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, in the second coil group, a second groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, in the first coil group, the first inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the positive direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the first groove, and in the second coil group, the second inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the second groove. 4. The isolation transformer according to claim 1 , wherein, in the first coil group, the inner peripheral side lead wire bifurcates from the inner peripheral side end portion so as to be drawn out in the positive direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil as the first inner peripheral side lead wire and drawn out in the negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil as a third inner peripheral side lead wire, in the second coil group, the inner peripheral side lead wire bifurcates from the inner peripheral side end portion so as to be drawn out in the negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil as the second inner peripheral side lead wire, and drawn out in the positive direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil as a fourth inner peripheral side lead wire, the first inner peripheral side lead wire and the third inner peripheral side lead wire that are drawn out after bifurcating and the second inner peripheral side lead wire and the fourth inner peripheral side lead wire that are drawn out after bifurcating respectively converge on the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil, and the converged first and third inner peripheral side lead wires and the converged second and fourth inner peripheral side lead wires are respectively connected to each other. 5. The isolation transformer according to claim 4 , wherein, in the first coil group, the first inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil after passing through a central hole in the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and the third inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil after passing through a central hole in the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and in the second coil group, the second inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil after passing through the central hole in the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and the fourth inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil after passing through the central hole in the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil. 6. The isolation transformer according to claim 4 , wherein, in the first coil group, a first groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and a third groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, in the second coil group, a second groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the second secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, and a fourth groove is formed in a primary side coil side surface of the first secondary side coil facing the primary side coil, in the first coil group, the first inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the positive direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the first groove, while the third inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the third groove, and in the second coil group, the second inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the negative direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the second groove, while the fourth inner peripheral side lead wire is drawn out in the positive direction of the z axis and then drawn out to the outer peripheral side of the primary side coil through the fourth groove. 7. The isolation transformer according to claim 1 , further comprising a magnetic material core in which the respective coil groups of the pair of coil groups are mounted individually. 8.
