Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A winding component includes a core that surrounds an outer circumference of a coil and end surfaces of flanges to form a closed magnetic circuit, in which notches through which end portions of the coil are drawn outward are so formed in the flanges that each of the notches extends radially inward from an outer circumferential edge of the corresponding flange, a wall that surrounds each of the notches such that the wall stands axially outward on the flange, a thick portion in a winding part in correspondence with the notches and thicker than other portions of the winding part, and a lid formed of a sidewall between an outer circumferential surface of the wall and the core and covers the outer circumferential surface of the wall and a top plate at an axially outer end of the sidewall and covers an opening in the wall.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A winding component comprising: a bobbin having flanges formed at axially opposite ends of a tubular winding part; a coil wound around the winding part of the bobbin; and a core that surrounds an outer circumference of the coil and end surfaces of the flanges to form a closed magnetic circuit, wherein the bobbin further includes: notches through which end portions of the coil are drawn outward so formed in the flanges that each of the notches extends radially inward from an outer circumferential edge of the corresponding flange, a wall that surrounds each of the notches so provided that the wall stands axially outward on each of the flanges, a thick portion formed in the winding part in correspondence with the notches and made thicker than other portions of the winding part, the thick portion having an egg-like shape formed in a cross section of the winding part taken along the radial direction thereof, and a lid formed of a sidewall that is disposed between an outer circumferential surface of the wall and the core and covers an outer circumferential surface of the wall, and a top plate formed at an axially outer end of the sidewall, and covers an opening in the wall. 2. The winding component according to claim 1 , wherein the lid is so configured that the sidewall has a continuous ring shape, and the top plate is formed at the axially outer end of the sidewall. 3. The winding component according to claim 1 , wherein the core comprises a pair of E-shaped ferrite cores, the pair of E-shaped ferrite cores each having a rectangular-plate-shaped back portion, plate-shaped outer legs standing on longitudinal opposite ends of the back portion, and a cylindrical middle leg standing on a middle portion between the outer legs.
