Abstract

A bobbin for use in a magnetic module is provided. The bobbin comprises a winding body, a first plate and a second plate. The winding body is disposed between the first plate and the second plate, and further comprises a first end, a second end and a through hole. The first end comprises a first buckling portion, and the through hole penetrates the first end and the second end. The first plate includes a second buckling portion and a first opening, while the second buckling portion is adapted to engage with the first buckling portion. The second plate includes a second opening, and the second plate is engaged with the second end of the winding body.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A bobbin for use in a magnetic module, the bobbin comprising:
a winding body comprising a first end, a second end opposite the first end, a through hole passing through the first end and the second end, and at least one first buckling portion disposed on the first end;
a first plate comprising at least one second buckling portion and a first opening, the at least one first buckling portion of the winding body being structured to engage with the at least one second buckling portion of the first plate so that the first plate is detachably mounted on the first end of the winding body with the first opening being disposed corresponding to the through hole of the winding body; and
a second plate comprising a second opening corresponding to the through hole of the winding body, and the second plate engaged with the second end of the winding body;
wherein the winding body comprising the first end and the first buckling portion is a monolithic structure, the first plate comprising the second buckling portion is a monolithic structure, and the first buckling portion extends along an axial direction of the winding body;
wherein the second end of the winding body comprises at least one third buckling portion, and the second plate comprises at least one fourth buckling portion, the winding body engages with the fourth buckling portion of the second plate by the third bucking portion and the second plate is detachably mounted on the second end of the winding body.

2. The bobbin as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one first positioning structure disposed on the first plate.

3. The bobbin as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first positioning structure is a hollow column comprising an outer peripheral edge smaller than an inner peripheral edge of the through hole.

4. The bobbin as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the first positioning structure is a plurality of protrusions disposed around the first opening.

5. The bobbin as claimed in claim 1 , further comprising at least one second positioning structure disposed on the second plate.

6. The bobbin as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the second positioning structure is a hollow column comprising an outer peripheral edge smaller than an inner peripheral edge of the through hole.

7. The bobbin as claimed in claim 5 , wherein the second positioning structure is a plurality of protrusions disposed around the second opening.

8. A magnetic module, comprising:
a bobbin as claimed in claim 1 ;
a winding structure disposed on the winding body of the bobbin; and
a magnetic core assembly partly disposed in the through hole of the bobbin.

9. The magnetic module as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the winding structure comprises a primary coil and secondary coil.

10. The magnetic module as claimed in claim 9 , further comprising a partition plate disposed on the winding body of the bobbin, the partition plate divides the winding body into a first winding portion and a second winding portion, and the primary coil and the secondary coil are disposed on the first winding portion and the second winding portion, respectively.
