Abstract: An antenna includes an elongate laminated core, a core case having an electrical insulating property and housing the core, and a coil wound around the core between both end portions of the core through the case. The core has a first and second groups, each including thin plates of amorphous soft magnetic alloy laminated with each other, and is configured by stacking the first and second groups one another. Each of the thin plates of the core includes flanges provided at both end portions thereof, and a coil wound portion between the both end portions, and the case includes projections, which push the both end portions of the thin plates of the second group to separate from the both end portions of the thin plates of the first group in the laminating direction of the thin plates of the core while the core is housed in the case.

Abstract: The objectives of the present invention is to provide smaller, lighter and less expensive structure in a starting device for discharge lamp for car use so as to prevent breakage due to vibrations etc. The device having the following arrangement realizes the above-mentioned objective. A starting device for a discharge lamp comprises a socket for mounting the discharge lamp and starting members such as a starting transformer etc. where the starting transformer comprises a bobbin having a core-less structure and a primary coil and a secondary coil wound around the bobbin.

Abstract: A small-sized apparatus having an inverter which can satisfy EMC standards by providing a small zero phase-sequence reactor which has a high noise attenuation rate over a wide frequency range and wide working temperature range. The apparatus having an inverter comprising a line-noise filter connected between a power supply and the inverter and a zero phase-sequence reactor connected between the inverter and a load is characterized in that the zero phase-sequence reactor connected between the inverter and the load comprises a tape-wound magnetic core formed by winding a nanocrystalline soft-magnetic alloy tape in which nanocrystalline grains not larger than 50 nm in grain size account for at least 50% in volume of the structure; the tape-wound core having the AC relative initial permeability .mu.ri (10 kHz) at the magnetizing force peak value of 0.05 A/m and the frequency of 10 kHz of 20,000 to 200,000, and the AC relative initial permeability .mu.ri (100 kHz) at the magnetizing force peak value of 0.

Abstract: A high voltage transformer comprising a core with a closed magnetic flux path formed by at lease two core parts, at least two bobbins mounted on the side legs of the core, a primary coil and a secondary coil. The bobbin has a hollow through hole to receive the side leg, a low voltage side flange and a high voltage side flange at end portions. The primary coil is inserted in the low voltage side flange, and the secondary coil is regularly and orderly wound on the bobbin between the low voltage side flange and the high voltage side flange. The winding direction of the secondary coil of one of the bobbins is opposite to that of the secondary coil of the other bobbin. The regularly and orderly wound coil and the opposite winding directions decrease the potential difference between the adjacent turns in the second coil and minimize the potential difference between the opposing turns of the secondary coils which are placed parallel to each other.

Abstract: In the magnetic core including a first leg portion around which a wire is wound, a second leg portion for circulating a magnetic flux generated in the first leg portion, and a web portion connecting the first leg portion and the second leg portion, a magnetic gap is provided in a rear area extending from the root of the first leg portion. With the magnetic gap, a magnetic flux leaking outwardly from a rear area extending from the root of the first leg portion is drastically reduced.
