Openings where the magnetic core in the mold component is exposed are formed in multiple faces of the mold component that are upper, lower, front, rear, and right and left faces. Apart of the yoke portion of the resin-mold core corresponding to a location where terminals are drawn to the exterior of the core from coils attached to the outer circumferences of the leg portions of the core has no opening formed in the multiple faces of the mold component. Positioning members to coaxially align the leg portions of the opposing resin-mold core are formed in abutting faces of the leg portions of the resin-mold core.

  • Publication number: 20140292456
    Abstract: A reactor includes an annular core, coils, a sensor detecting a state of the reactor, and a connector outputting signal from the sensor. Resin-molded bodies are provided around the annular core. The resin-molded body has bobbins for the respective coils and core covering portions formed integrally with each other. An exposed area where no resin covers the bottom of the core is formed in the lower face of the covering portions.

  • Publication number: 20130249666
    Abstract: First and second divisional cores each including right and left leg portions and a yoke interconnecting those together are formed by molding respective yoke-side core members in a resin. Cylindrical core mounting portions extending from the outer circumference of the surface of the yoke-side core member are formed integrally with the respective right and left leg portions of the first. divisional core. I-shaped leg-portion-side core members and spacers are attached in the cylindrical core mounting portion formed in each of the right and left leg portions. The surface of the yoke-side core member molded in the resin and the surface of the leg-portion-side core member are disposed so as to have a spacer therebetween. The two divisional cores are joined together by butting respective leg portions of the two divisional cores with each other to form an annular mold core, and a coil is wound around the mold core.
