  • Publication number: 20240038434
    Abstract: A device is described, which, according to one exemplary embodiment, includes a carrier which has a through opening along a longitudinal axis, and at least one soft magnetic strip wound around the carrier to form a toroidal strip core. The strip is wound directly onto the carrier so that there is no play between the toroidal strip core and the carrier. The carrier can thus serve as part of the housing of the toroidal strip core.

  • Publication number: 20210217550
    Abstract: An inductive component, which has an annular core having a core cross section and made of a soft-magnetic material and a coil surrounding the core is provided. The coil is composed of two electrically conductive sections. The sections each have a basic U shape with two limbs, of which the first limb is longer than the second limb and the first limb is curved and towards the end of same projects away from a plane defined by the basic U shape. The sections are pushed onto the core next to one another so that the basic U shape of each section surrounds the core cross section on three sides. The first limb of a section is mechanically and electrically connected to the second limb of the other section. A method for producing a component of this kind is also described.
