Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a transformer includes a first secondary winding made of stamped and bent metal. This first secondary winding has a coil portion with substantially closed cross section. The transformer also includes a primary winding made of wire and having a coil portion wound around the coil portion of the first secondary winding. A second secondary winding made of stamped and bent metal and having a coil portion with substantially closed cross section has its coil portion disposed about the coil portion of the primary winding. The primary winding further includes a second coil portion wound around the coil portion of the second secondary winding. The transformer thus provided is easier to build and less apt to internal short-circuiting than alternative designs.

Abstract: A dry-type transformer having an iron core, with high voltage and low voltage coils encapsulated in casting resin. The high and low voltage windings may be cast separately, or together. Either or both of the coils may have integral axial cooling channels, as may the annular axial space between the inner and outer windings (usually low voltage and high voltage, respectively). Coil cross-section is a modified oval (Rectoval.TM.) shape, in that the sides of the coil are substantially linear and the ends of the coils are substantially semi-circular. The aspect ratio (L/W) of the coil, when viewed in radial cross-section, ranges from greater than 1.0 to about 2.5. The rectangular nature of the coil allows for the use of a core member having a rectangular cross-section, thereby reducing the manufacturing expense involved with shaping the core member. The circular nature of the ends of the coil provide improved strength similar to that of circular/cylindrical coils.

Abstract: The storage coil has a core and windings which are arranged as conductor tracks on base layers. The base layers each contain only one winding, whose start and end are each passed out on one or more projections on the outer edge of the base layer. In consequence, the projections project out of an opening in a core, for example an E/I core, on which projections the windings of the base layers make contact with one another and with connections. With suitable dimensioning, losses resulting from the skin effect and eddy current losses can be kept very low.

Abstract: An improved low voltage winding for dry insulated transformer has its windings resin encapsulated. The winding is constructed with flexible sheet conductors wound coincident with an insulating sheet material. Insulating spacers provide a means to form air channels in the windings during the coil forming process. A sealant is applied to openings at the lower ends and along vertical seams of the coil prior to the resin impregnation and encapsulation process. This will prevent drainage of the resin during a curing cycle. The result is a coil that exhibits high short circuit protection due to the tightly bond sheet conductors which will prevent movement of the conductors during short circuit conditions and also increases the radial compressive strength of the coil.

A coil or wire 4 is wound round the core 1a and has a conductor protruding from opposite stripped ends thereof. The opposite ends 5 of the conductor are respectively received in the grooves 2 of the flanges 1b and connected to the conductive films 3. A coating or armor 6 is formed on the coil 4 and has a flat surface 6a. The coating 6 has a rectangular figuration complementary to the configuration of the flanges 1b.

Abstract: An electric noise absorber comprising at least two ferrite pieces having abutting planes, at least two case members containing the ferrite pieces respectively and being closed by means of engagement members, and a spring member provided in at least one of the case members for pressing the ferrite pieces against each other when the case members are closed.

The case members requires no apertures for biasing members and therefore outside magnetic substance is prevented from contacting with the ferrite pieces contained in the case members.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to an inductor element for noise suppression capable of suppressing the high frequency component in the GHz band through absorption.A core for passing through a signal line conductor is provided. The core is at least partially constituted with a compound member that is prepared by mixing ferromagnetic metal particles and resin.

Abstract: Transformer comprises a core (K1, K2), a primary winding (W1) and at least one secondary winding (W2), which are arranged as conductors on one or more layers of a flat carrier, and a coil former with a chamber system having chambers (C1, C2), which accommodate the layers with the windings (W1, W2). At least one of the chambers (C1, C2) is closed at least in regions, with the result that long distances for creepage paths are obtained. As a result of this, it is possible to adhere to existing safety regulations for the mains power supply isolation even with very compact dimensions and/or with full utilization of the width available for the conductor tracks. The chamber system can be formed from two or three plastic parts (P1, P2, P3) by mating. The layers with the conductor tracks are routed laterally out of the chamber system in order to make contact with terminals.
