  • Publication number: 20230135284
    Abstract: A coil component includes a core, and projection is on a lower main surface of a top plate and a recess for receiving the projection is in a top surface of a flange portion in the core. The projection has a frustoconical shape, for example, and the cavity formed by the recess has a conical inner peripheral surface. An outer surface of the projection and a wall surface that defines the recess form guide surfaces which guide the projection into the recess and form first and second abutment portions, respectively, that are brought into abutment against each other. The abutment between the first and second abutment portions defines the termination end of the projection inserted into the recess with a gap between the lower main surface of the top plate and the top surface of the flange portion and aligns the top plate relative to the core.

  • Publication number: 20230014685
    Abstract: Bonding strength between a core and a top plate is increased in a coil component. Surface roughnesses of a top surface of a flange portion of the core and a lower main surface of the top plate are different. For example, the surface roughness of the lower main surface is smaller than the surface roughness of the top surface. A protrusion protruding from the lower main surface having smaller surface roughness and in contact with the top surface of the flange portion of the core is in a region where the lower main surface of the top plate and the top surface of the flange portion of the core face each other with an adhesive interposed therebetween. The protrusion can increase a surface area of a bonding surface of the top plate having smaller surface roughness, and provide an anchor effect of the adhesive on the top plate.

  • Publication number: 20220328229
    Abstract: A coil component having a first flange portion connected to a first end of a winding core portion on a first positive direction side, a second flange portion connected to a second end of the winding core portion on a first negative direction side, and a top plate extending through a longer range in a direction along a center axis than the winding core portion and connected to the first and second flange portions via an adhesive which does not contact the winding core portion. A first presence area is where the adhesive is on a surface of the top plate. A second presence area consists of a second area where the adhesive is on a surface of the first flange portion and a fourth area where the adhesive is on a surface of the second flange portion. The first presence area is larger than the second presence area.

  • Publication number: 20220328239
    Abstract: In a coil component, a first end of a wire is connected to a first terminal electrode. Part of the wire extends in a spiral shape around a peripheral surface of a winding core portion with a center axis as an axis of helix. A region of the wire from a first point at which the wire is connected to the first terminal electrode to a second point at which the wire has been wound through one turn around the center axis is referred to as a first wire range. Within the first wire range, the wire has a first connection point at which the wire is connected to a top plate via adhesive. The wire is separated from the peripheral surface of the winding core portion at the first connection point.
