  • Publication number: 20040090300
    Abstract: An improved ferrite core, which is particularly suitable for transformers, is proposed, which proposes with respect to shapes derived from E-cores to create the middle bleb with an oval cross-section, whereby the longitudinal axis of the middle bleb is oriented parallel to the attachment plane and the longest axis of the oval cross-section resides vertically to this attachment plane. The core is symmetrically structured with respect to the mirror plane, which contains the longitudinal axis and which resides vertically to the attachment plane, and is particularly low in distortion.
    Type: Application

  • Patent number: 6696913
    Abstract: A ferrite core, such as for transformers, has a middle bleb with an oval cross-section or flattened oval cross-section, whereby the longitudinal axis of the middle bleb is oriented parallel to the attachment plane of the transformer and the longest axis of the oval cross-section or flattened oval cross-section is oriented vertically to this attachment plane. The core is symmetrically structured with respect to a mirror plane, which contains the longitudinal axis of the ferrite core and which resides vertically to the attachment plane, and is particularly low in distortion.

  • Publication number: 20020158743
    Abstract: An improved ferrite core, particularly suitable for transformers, with a middle bleb with an oval cross-section, whereby the longitudinal axis of the middle bleb is oriented parallel to the attachment plane and the longest axis of the oval cross-section is placed vertically to this attachment plane. The core is symmetrically structured with respect to the mirror plane, which contains the longitudinal axis and which resides vertically to the attachment plane, and is particularly low in distortion.

  • Patent number: 5939965
    Abstract: An inductive component with variable magnetic properties. A magnetic field is inductively generated in a magnetic core by an electrical winding. Electrode coatings are provided on the magnetic core and an electrical field or current is impressed into the magnetic core through the electrodes.
