<p>There is provided a gap in a magnetic circuit of an iron core inductor, and a plurality of small size permanent magnet pieces are placed in the aforesaid gap, with the magnetizing directions thereof being provided in side-by-side relation. If the magnetizing direction of the permanent magnet pieces is opposed to that of a D.C. magnetic field which is produced in a magnetic circuit, yet in case D.C. and A.C. overlapping currents flow through the inductor, then the D.C. magnetic field produced in the magnetic circuit will be off-set thereby, providing a high inductance value, while eddy currents produced within the permanent magnet pieces due to the A.C. magnetic field will be reduced to a considerable amount, because the permanent magnet pieces are small in size, thus minimizing the heat to be produced in the permanent magnet pieces.</p> |
