  • Patent number: 6624724
    Abstract: The present invention is intended to provide a line filter having an outstanding attenuation characteristic over a wide frequency band from low frequency band to high frequency band, with an improved elimination characteristic for common mode noises. To achieve this object, the invention incorporates a structure wherein a first coil unit (14) for second band and a second coil unit (16) for second band are disposed vertically to a closed-loop magnetic core (11).

  • Patent number: 6078242
    Abstract: A line filter capable of eliminating the common mode noise and the normal mode noise altogether. It comprises both the common mode noise elimination means and the normal mode noise elimination means. A central magnetic core 32 is provided in the middle flange 34 of bobbin 23. A through-window 36 is provided at a place facing the counterpart feet 27 of closed magnetic circuit core 28 so as a part of the central magnetic core 32 is exposed, but the central magnetic core 32 and the closed magnetic circuit core 28 are not making contact with each other.

  • Patent number: 5745021
    Abstract: A line filter includes a magnetic core having a leg. A bobbin is placed around the leg of the magnetic core. The bobbin has end collars provided with projections respectively. A pair of windings are provided on the bobbin. A molded casing made of resin houses the magnetic core, the bobbin, and the windings. The casing has movable tongues which engage the projections on the bobbin collars to fix the bobbin to the casing. The casing has inner surfaces formed with ribs which engage the magnetic core to fix the magnetic core to the casing. The casing has an L-shaped movable member extending from a ceiling thereof and engaging the magnetic core to fix the magnetic core to the casing.

  • Patent number: 5227745
    Abstract: A line filter assembly adapted to be inserted in an electrical power supply circuit of various electronic appliances for avoiding an invasion and leakage of noise include first and second core members each having a pair of opposite arms connected together through a common bridge. Coils are formed on the arms of each of the core members in such a manner that directions of magnetic fluxes produced in the closed magnetic circuit as a result of flow of line currents counteract while the same coils are so arranged that the magnetic fluxes produced in the closed magnetic circuit as a result of the flow of the line currents are oriented in the same direction.

  • Patent number: 4516978
    Abstract: A key button molded of a synthetic resin and having on the top surface thereof a character or symbol printed with a coloring agent comprising a dye and a solvent which is capable of dissolving the dye and the synthetic resin, wherein the character or symbol is durably formed on the top surface by the action of the solvent on the surface and body to cause the dye to permeate the surface and the body.
