  • Patent number: 7116203
    Abstract: A first winding of a choke coil is closely wound in a single layer on the outer periphery of a substantially cylindrical body portion of a first bobbin. A second winding is closely wound in a single layer over the first winding. A third winding is closely wound in a single layer on the outer periphery of a substantially cylindrical body portion of a second bobbin. A fourth winding is closely wound in a single layer over the third winding. The first, second, third and fourth windings are wound so as to mutually strengthen magnetic fluxes when an in-phase noise current flows. The first and second windings are connected to a pair of signal lines via which differential transmission communication is performed and on which a power supply current is sent out. The third and fourth windings are connected to a pair of signal lines via which differential transmission communication is performed and on which the power supply current returns.

  • Patent number: 6965289
    Abstract: A common-mode choke coil includes a core having flanges disposed at both ends and a winding section arranged between the flanges. Electrodes are disposed in the flanges, while two pieces of wire are wound around the winding section and ends of the pieces of wire are connected to the electrodes. A ferrite plate with a relative magnetic permeability that is smaller than that of the core is attached on the upper surface of the flanges with an adhesive so as to cover the wire.

  • Publication number: 20030071704
    Abstract: A common-mode choke coil which is capable of achieving a desired impedance value and reducing the amount of deviation in the impedance values, includes a core having flanges disposed at both ends and a winding section arranged between the flanges. Electrodes are disposed in the flanges, while two pieces of wire are wound around the winding section and ends of the pieces of wire are connected to the electrodes. A ferrite plate with a relative magnetic permeability that is smaller than that of the core is attached on the upper surface of the flanges with an adhesive so as to cover the wire. Thereby, the impedance value of the coil preferably has a relative magnetic permeability that is different from that of a coil having the same relative magnetic permeability of the ferrite plate as that of the core, thereby increasing the degree of freedom of the impedance value while changes in the impedance value are reliably prevented even when the ferrite plate is displaced.

  • Patent number: 6160465
    Abstract: A soft magnetic core is substantially cylindrical and a linear-shaped coil conductor is inserted through a hole in the central portion of the soft magnetic core. A hard magnetic material sheet has areas which are magnetized in a thickness direction thereof and the areas are arranged in strips so that a magnetization direction of adjacent strips is mutually opposite. The hard magnetic material is wound on the outside surface of the soft magnetic core and is fixed to the soft magnetic core. The direction of the areas formed as strips of the hard magnetic material is substantially perpendicular to the axial direction of the coil conductor.

  • Patent number: 5994992
    Abstract: A choke coil is provided having a highly efficient normal-mode inductance component. The choke coil comprises a bobbin, a magnetic core, and a pair of windings. The bobbin has a core portion, and flanges which are respectively provided at both outer ends and at the center of the core portion. The forward end of the central flange, placed near the magnetic core, extends longer than the forward ends of the other flanges located at the ends of the core portion. In one embodiment, the forward end of the central flange is provided with a hole for receiving the magnetic core.

  • Patent number: 5977853
    Abstract: There is provided a choke coil having a sufficient noise eliminating effect against common mode and normal mode noises. The choke coil has two bobbins, a pair of windings wound around the respective bobbins, first and second magnetic cores which are each inserted in cylindrical body portions of the bobbins at one side thereof, and a support member for supporting the cores. The first magnetic core is in the form of the character B and made of a material having lower permeability. The second magnetic core is in the form of the character D and made of a material having higher permeability. A predetermined gap is maintained between the cores by a spacer provided on the top surface of the support member.

  • Patent number: 5825272
    Abstract: A choke coil is disclosed which exhibits sufficient capability in suppressing both common-mode noise and normal-mode noise with a small number of parts. A bobbin is formed of a rod and flanges provided for the rod. A pair of windings are reeled around the rod. Further, one side of a hollow-rectangular integral-type magnetic core is inserted into a hole formed in the rod of the bobbin. The heights of the flange of the bobbin are set as L2 in the upward direction, while the heights of the flange of the bobbin are determined as L1 in the downward direction (as illustrated) with L1>L2, i.e., the heights of the flange are varied in the directions along the outer peripheral surfaces of the flange.

  • Patent number: 5793273
    Abstract: A choke coil exhibits sufficient capability in suppressing both common-mode noise and normal-mode noise while inhibiting an occurrence of magnetic saturation of a magnetic core. A terminal stand is formed of a frame and a magnetic plate. A split-type bobbin has a bobbin member made from a magnetic substance and a bobbin member made from an insulating substance. The bobbin is formed of a rod and three flanges provided for the rod. A pair of windings are reeled around the rod of the bobbin. Further, one side of an integral-type magnetic core formed in a hollow-rectangular shape is inserted into a hole formed in the rod of the bobbin. The magnetic bobbin member is placed outside a region surrounded by a closed magnetic path formed by the magnetic core. The magnetic bobbin member also forms a closed magnetic path together with the magnetic plate of the terminal stand.

  • Patent number: 5635890
    Abstract: A choke call includes a bobbin, a pair of windings wound around the bobbin, and two magnetic cores. The bobbin has a rectangular barrel in which a circular hole is defined. The two magnetic cores are partly inserted into the hole of the barrel. The hole is offset from the central axis of the barrel. A central collar extends perpendicular to and at the central portion of the barrel. Two end collars extend beyond and parallel to opposite ends of the barrel. The thickness of the central collar is approximately two times greater than that of the end collars. The magnetic cores collectively form an opening. Within the opening, the gap between the outer periphery of the central collar and the magnetic cores is greater than that between the outer periphery of the end collars and the magnetic cores. A part of the magnetic cores within the hole has a circular or rectangular cross-section.

  • Patent number: 5629661
    Abstract: A choke coil having a sufficient noise eliminating effect against common mode and normal mode noises. The choke coil has a bobbin, a pair of windings wound around the bobbin, and magnetic cores inserted in a rectilinear body portion of the bobbin.
