Teardrop-shaped magnetic core and coil device using same

摘要

The present invention provides a teardrop-shaped magnetic core having excellent manufacturing efficiency, a large initial inductance, and stable DC superposition characteristics and a coil device using this teardrop-shaped magnetic core. A teardrop-shaped magnetic core according to the present invention is a magnetic core that is made from a magnetic material and is to be used in a coil device 20, the magnetic core including a first rectilinear portion 11 and a second rectilinear portion 15 that have a straight-line shape and are connected to each other at one end via a bent portion 16 that is bent at a right angle, and a circular arc portion 17 that has a circular arc shape and connects the first rectilinear portion and the second rectilinear portion to each other at the other end. A coil device according to the present invention is configured by winding a wire around the teardrop-shaped magnetic core 10.

1. A teardrop-shaped magnetic core that is made from a magnetic material and is to be used in a coil device, the magnetic core comprising:
a first rectilinear portion and a second rectilinear portion that have a straight-line shape and are connected to each other at one end via a bent portion that is bent at a right angle; and a circular arc portion that has a circular arc shape and connects the first rectilinear portion and the second rectilinear portion to each other at the other end, wherein an outer circumferential surface and an inner circumferential surface of the bent portion have concentric circular arc shapes, the bent portion, the first rectilinear portion, the second rectilinear portion, and the circular arc portion are coated with an electric insulation resin, the resin with which an inner circumferential surface of the second rectilinear portion is coated having a thickness that is substantially equal to a radius of curvature of the inner circumferential surface of the bent portion, and the first rectilinear portion has a gap portion formed by cutting the first rectilinear portion in a direction perpendicular to a magnetic path, and no step is present between a first end surface of the gap portion that is located on the side of the bent portion and a resin-coated inner surface of the second rectilinear portion.
