Abstract

Disclosed herein is a common mode filter that includes: a winding core part including first and second winding areas and a third winding area positioned between the first and second winding areas; and first and second wires wound in a same direction around the winding core part. The first and second wires constitute a first winding block wound in the first winding area and a second winding block wound in the second winding area. The first and second wires cross each other in the third winding area. Each of the first and second winding blocks has first and second winding layers. The difference in a number of turns between the first winding layer and the second winding layer is larger in the first winding block than in the second winding block.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A common mode filter comprising:
a winding core part including a first winding area positioned on one axial end side, a second winding area positioned on other axial end side, and a third winding area positioned between the first and second winding areas; and
first and second wires wound in a same direction around the winding core part,
wherein the first and second wires constitute a first winding block wound in the first winding area and a second winding block wound in the second winding area,
wherein the first and second wires cross each other in the third winding area,
wherein each of the first and second winding blocks has a first winding layer positioned in a lower layer and a second winding layer positioned on an upper layer of the first winding layer,
wherein the first winding block includes a first layer part in which one of the first and second wires is positioned in the first winding layer and other one thereof is positioned in the second winding layer and a non-layer part in which both the first and second wires are positioned in the first winding layer,
wherein the first layer part and the non-layer part are apart from each other so as to form a space therebetween, and
wherein a difference in a number of turns between the first winding layer and the second winding layer is larger in the first winding block than in the second winding block.

2. The common mode filter as claimed in, claim 1 , wherein the second winding block includes a second layer part in which one of the first and second wires is positioned in the first winding layer and other one thereof is positioned in the second winding layer.

3. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a number of turns in the first layer part and a number of turns in the second layer part are equal to each other.

4. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first and second wires are positioned in the first winding layer and second winding layer, respectively, in the first layer part, and the first and second wires are positioned in the second winding layer and first winding layer, respectively, in the second layer part.

5. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 2 , further comprising:
a first flange part provided at the one axial end of the winding core part;
a second flange part positioned at the other axial end of the winding core part;
first and second terminal electrodes provided on the first flange part and connected respectively with one ends of the first and second wires; and
third and fourth terminal electrodes provided on the second flange part and connected respectively with other ends of the first and second wires,
wherein the non-layer part is positioned between the one ends of the first and second wires and the first layer part.

6. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 5 ,
wherein numbers of turns of the first and second wires in the non-layer part are both one, and
wherein the first and second wires are wound so as to be along with each other in the non-layer part.

7. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the first and second wires do not cross each other in the first winding block and cross each other in the second winding block.

8. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 7 , wherein last turns which are closest to the other ends of the respective first and second wires in the second winding block cross each other.

9. A common mode filter comprising:
a winding core part including first, second, third, fourth and fifth sections arranged in an axial direction in this order; and
first and second wires wound around the winding core part,
wherein the first and second wires cross each other in each of the third and fifth sections,
wherein the first and second wires constitute a double layer structure in each of the second and fourth sections, and
wherein the first and second wires constitute a single layer structure in the first section such that neither of the first and second wires in the first section overlaps either of the first and second wires in the second section.

10. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first and second wires do not cross each other in each of the first, second and fourth sections.

11. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first section is apart from the second section so as to form a space therebetween.

12. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a difference in a number of turns between the first winding layer and the second winding layer in the first winding block is two or more larger than that in the second winding block.

13. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 12 , wherein a difference in a number of turns between the first winding layer and the second winding layer in the first winding block is four or more larger than that in the second winding block.

14. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 6 ,
wherein the first wire in the non-layer part is a first turn counted from the first terminal electrode,
wherein the second wire in the non-layer part is a first turn counted from the second terminal electrode,
wherein second and third turns of each of the first and second wires constitute the first layer part, and
wherein the second turn of the second wire is wound along a valley line formed by the second and third turns of the first wire.

15. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the first turn of the second wire does not contact with the second turn of the first and second wires.

16. A common mode filter comprising:
a winding core part including first, second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth sections arranged in an axial direction in this order; and
first and second wires wound around the winding core part,
wherein the first and second wires constitute a single layer structure in each of the first, third, and fifth sections such that same turns of the first and second wires contact with the winding core part,
wherein the first and second wires constitute a double layer structure in each of the second and sixth sections such that one of same turns of the first and second wires contacts with the winding core part and that other thereof is wound on the one of same turns of the first and second wires so as not to contact with the winding core part, and
wherein the first and second wires cross each other in the fourth section.

17. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the first section is apart from the second section so as to form a space therebetween.

18. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 16 , wherein the second section contacts with the third section.

19. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 18 , wherein the fifth section contacts with the sixth section.

20. The common mode filter as claimed in claim 16 ,
wherein a number of turns in the second section and a number of turns in the sixth section are equal to each other, and
wherein a number of turns in the third section and a number of turns in the fifth section are equal to each other.
