Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A winding coil component includes a drum-shaped core including a winding core having a substantially n-sided prism shape having n side surfaces positioned around a central axis. The n side surfaces include a first side surface facing a mounting substrate and wire wound around the winding core portion and forming a multilayer portion in layers including a superposition beginning portion located in a region other than a region above an n-th side surface to which the n side surfaces are arranged in order from the first side surface in a winding direction in which a lowest layer of the multilayer portion winds toward the superposition beginning portion.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A winding coil component comprising: a drum-shaped core including a winding core portion, a first flange portion and a second flange portion, the first flange portion and the second flange portion being positioned on respective end portions of the winding core portion that are opposite each other along a central axis of the winding core portion, the winding core portion including a substantially n-sided prism (n is a natural number of 3 or more) shape having n side surfaces positioned around the central axis, and the n side surfaces including a first side surface facing a mounting substrate; and a wire wound around the winding core portion and forming at least one multilayer portion wound around the winding core portion in layers such that the multilayer portion includes a superposition beginning portion at which the wire shifts from a lower layer side to an upper layer side; wherein the n side surfaces are arranged in order from the first side surface to a n-th side surface in a winding direction in which a lowest layer of the multilayer portion winds toward the superposition beginning portion, the superposition beginning portion includes a first superposition beginning portion located in a region other than a region above the n-th side surface, the superposition beginning portion is wound in a direction pointing from the second flange to the first flange, the superposition beginning portion is wound from a region above the second side surface to a region above the n−1 side surface, the wire at the upper layer side is wound multiple turns, and the wire at the lower layer side is wound multiple turns. 2. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , wherein the first superposition beginning portion is located in a region above one of the n side surfaces other than the n-th side surface. 3. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , wherein the first superposition beginning portion is located above a ridge line between adjacent side surfaces of the n side surfaces. 4. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , wherein the winding core portion has a substantially quadrangular prism shape having the first side surface, a second side surface, a third side surface and a fourth side surface in order in the winding direction. 5. The winding coil component according to claim 4 , wherein the first superposition beginning portion is located in a region above the third side surface. 6. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , wherein the superposition beginning portion only consists of a plurality of the first superposition beginning portions. 7. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one multilayer portion includes a plurality of multilayer portions, and the plurality of the multilayer portions are arranged along the central axis. 8. The winding coil component according to claim 1 , further comprising: a first terminal electrode mounted on a surface of the first flange portion that faces a mounting substrate side and connected to a first end of the wire; and a second terminal electrode mounted on a surface of the second flange portion that faces the mounting substrate side and connected to a second end of the wire. 9. A winding coil component comprising: a drum-shaped core including a winding core portion, a first flange portion and a second flange portion, the first flange portion and the second flange portion being positioned on respective end portions of the winding core portion that are opposite each other along a central axis of the winding core portion; a wire wound around the winding core portion and forming at least one multilayer portion wound around the winding core portion in layers such that the multilayer portion includes a superposition beginning portion at which the wire shifts from a lower layer side to an upper layer side; a first terminal electrode mounted on a surface of the first flange portion that faces a mounting substrate side and connected to a first end of the wire; and a second terminal electrode mounted on a surface of the second flange portion that faces the mounting substrate side and connected to a second end of the wire, wherein the wire is wound from the first end to the second end in a winding direction in which a lowest layer of the multilayer portion winds toward the superposition beginning portion, the superposition beginning portion includes a first superposition beginning portion located in a region other than a region within a range from 225° to 315° in terms of an angle measured about the central axis from the first end in the winding direction, the superposition beginning portion is wound in a direction pointing from the second flange to the first flange, the superposition beginning portion is wound above a region extending from 45° to 225° in terms of the angle measured about the central axis from the first end in the winding direction, the wire at the upper layer side is wound multiple turns, and the wire at the lower layer side is wound multiple turns. 10. The winding coil component according to claim 9 , wherein the first superposition beginning portion is located within a range from 90° to 225° in terms of the angle measured about the central axis from the first end in the winding direction. 11. The winding coil component according to claim 10 , wherein the first superposition beginning portion is located within a range from 180° to 225° in terms of the angle measured about the central axis from the first end in the winding direction. 12. The winding coil component according to claim 9 , wherein the superposition beginning portion only consists of a plurality of the first superposition beginning portions. 13. The winding coil component according to claim 9 , wherein the at least one multilayer portion includes a plurality of the multilayer portions, and the plurality of the multilayer portions are arranged along the central axis.
