Abstract

A coil block manufacturing method of winding a wire around a coil core in which a core portion is provided between a first attachment portion and a second attachment portion, includes: a first step of fixing one end of the wire; a second step of, in a state of holding the first attachment portion of the coil core by a first chuck to expose the whole core portion, winding the wire around an end of the core portion; and a third step of, in a state of holding the second attachment portion of the coil core by a second chuck to expose the whole core portion, winding the wire around the whole core portion, to form a coil portion.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A coil block manufacturing method of winding a wire around a coil core in which a core portion is provided between a first attachment portion and a second attachment portion, the coil block manufacturing method comprising:
a first step comprising attaching a wiring board on which a wiring pattern is formed to the first attachment portion, and connecting a first end of the wire to the wiring pattern of the wiring board;
a second step comprising, in a state of holding the first attachment portion of the coil core together with the wiring board by a first chuck to expose all of the core portion, rotating the first chuck to wind the wire around an end of the core portion on a first attachment portion side while keeping the wire in close contact with an end surface of the first attachment portion, the first attachment portion side being a side where the first attachment portion is located; and
a third step comprising, in a state of holding the second attachment portion of the coil core by a second chuck to expose all of the core portion, rotating the second chuck to wind the wire around all of the core portion while keeping the wire in close contact with an end surface of the second attachment portion, to form the coil portion,
wherein in the second step, when holding the first attachment portion of the coil core together with the wiring board by the first chuck, respective end surfaces of the first attachment portion and the wiring board on a core portion side are substantially on a same plane as an end surface of the first chuck such that the respective end surfaces of the first attachment portion and the wiring board on the core portion side are exposed, the core portion side being a side where the core portion is located.

2. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the end surface of the first chuck on the core portion side protrudes, by a length shorter than a diameter of the wire, toward the core portion with respect to the respective end surfaces of the first attachment portion and the wiring board on the core portion side.

3. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein in the second step, when holding the first attachment portion of the coil core together with the wiring board by the first chuck, the wire connected to the wiring pattern is guided over the first chuck toward the core portion.

4. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the first chuck comprises:
a board positioning portion for positioning which positions the first attachment portion of the coil core in the second step; and
a pair of sandwiching claw portions which, in the second step, sandwich the first attachment portion from both sides to cover an edge of the wiring board in a state in which an end of the first attachment portion on the core portion side is open, the first attachment portion being positioned by the board positioning portion.

5. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 4 , wherein at least one of the pair of sandwiching claw portions is provided with a rounded wire guide protection portion which prevents the wire connected to the wiring pattern of the wiring board from coming into contact with the edge of the wiring board.

6. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 5 , wherein the rounded wire guide protection portion is inclined in a direction such that, when the pair of sandwiching claw portions move away from each other along the wiring board to release the first attachment portion from the pair of sandwiching claw portions, a semicircular contact surface in contact with the wire gradually moves away from the wire.

7. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein in the second step, when winding the wire around the end of the core portion on the first attachment portion side, the wire is wound substantially conically such that a number of turns of the wire gradually decreases from a position where the wire is in close contact with an end of the first attachment portion toward the second attachment portion.

8. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein in the third step, when holding the second attachment portion of the coil core by the second chuck, an end of the second attachment portion on a core portion side is substantially on a same plane as an end surface of the second chuck such that the end of the second attachment portion on the core portion side is exposed, the core portion side being a side where the core portion is located.

9. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 8 , wherein the end surface of the second chuck on the core portion side protrudes, by a length shorter than a diameter of the wire, toward the core portion with respect to the end of the second attachment portion on the core portion side.

10. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the second chuck comprises:
a stator positioning portion having a positioning depression which, in the third step, positions the second attachment portion of the coil core to expose an end of the second attachment portion on a core portion side, the core portion side being a side where the core portion is located; and
a stator press portion which, in the third step, presses the second attachment portion, positioned by the stator positioning portion, against the stator positioning portion.

11. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein in the third step, when winding the wire around all of the core portion to form the coil portion, the wire is wound around all of the core portion while controlling reciprocation of the coil core in an axial direction of the core portion by the second chuck.

12. The coil block manufacturing method according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a fourth step comprising fixing an outer periphery of the coil portion,
wherein in the fourth step, a second end of the wire is connected to the wiring pattern of the wiring board, and a fixing agent is applied to the outer periphery of the coil portion.
