  • Coil bobbin for superconducting magnetic energy storage
    Patent number: 8456269
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a coil bobbin for a superconducting magnetic energy storage. The coil bobbin includes coil bobbin frames, superconducting coils, first support plates, second support plates and a center frame. The coil bobbin frames are provided in such a way as to face each other. The superconducting coils are wound around the respective coil bobbin frames. The first support plates are provided on surfaces of the respective coil bobbin frames that are on faces that are opposite to the surfaces between the coil bobbin frames that face each other. The second support plates are provided on the respective facing surfaces of the coil bobbin frames. The center frame is disposed between the second support plates and has an annular plate shape having a thickness that is gradually reduced towards a center of the toroidal arrangement.
