Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A conductor unit includes: a plurality of conductors each including a conducting portion covered with an insulating coating; an annular core that includes a first core constituent portion and a second core constituent portion combined with the first core constituent portion, and that interposes the conductors between the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion; and a holding member that makes the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion press and hold the conductors therebetween.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A conductor unit comprising: a plurality of conductors each including a conducting portion covered with an insulating coating; an annular core made of magnetic material that includes a first core constituent portion and a second core constituent portion combined with the first core constituent portion, and that interposes the conductors between the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion; and a holding member that makes the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion press and hold the conductors therebetween, wherein the first core constituent portion has a columnar or plate-like shape, and the conductors are busbars each having a spiral portion into which the first core constituent portion is insertable. 2. The conductor unit according to claim 1 , wherein the holding member is an adhesive member that bonds the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion together. 3. The conductor unit according to claim 2 , wherein the adhesive member is interposed between the first core constituent portion and the second core constituent portion in a circumferential direction of the core, and contains a magnetic material. 4. The conductor unit according to claim 3 , further comprising: a plurality of connection members electrically connected to the respective conductors; and a housing member that accommodates the connection members, wherein the core is accommodated in the housing member, and held by the housing member. 5. The conductor unit according to claim 2 , further comprising: a plurality of connection members electrically connected to the respective conductors; and a housing member that accommodates the connection members, wherein the core is accommodated in the housing member, and held by the housing member. 6. The conductor unit according to claim 1 , further comprising: a plurality of connection members electrically connected to the respective conductors; and a housing member that accommodates the connection members, wherein the core is accommodated in the housing member, and held by the housing member.
