Abstract

A surface-mount inductor including a coil formed by winding a rectangular wire and a molded body for accommodating the coil, where the coil includes: a first roll formed by winding a rectangular wire, a second roll formed by winding the rectangular wire in position adjacent to the first roll along the winding axis, and a third roll formed by winding the rectangular wire on the second roll in a partially overlapping manner in a position adjacent to and opposite from the first roll along the winding axis, the ends of the wire being brought out from the outermost turns of the first roll and the third roll as lead ends, and the winding axis is parallel with the mounting face and the lead ends being extended over the surface of the molded body, as well as the method for manufacturing the same.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A method for manufacturing a surface-mount inductor including a coil formed by winding a rectangular wire and a molded body for accommodating the coil, comprising:
a step for making a coil, forming a first roll contacting the median portion of a rectangular wire to the spindle of a winding machine to wind, forming a second winding portion at a position adjacent to the first roll along the winding axis, arranging a jig at the first roll side of the second roll, forming a third roll winding the wire on the second roll at a position opposite to the first roll along the winding axis in such a manner that a portion of the third roll partially overlaps with the second roll, and forming lead ends brought out from the outermost turns of the first roll and of the third roll; and
a step for housing the coil inside the molded body,
whereby the coil is housed in the molded body, arranging the winding axis to be parallel with the mounting face of the molded body and the lead ends to extend over the surface of the molded body.

2. The method for manufacturing the surface-mount inductor according to claim 1 ,
wherein the molded body symmetrically houses two of the coils.

3. The method for manufacturing the surface-mount inductor according to claim 1 ,
wherein two of the coils are arranged in the molded body in such a manner that the coils face each other.
