Patent number: 8536967Abstract: In a coil bobbin, a cover section is provided as a spacer section which abuts against a heat radiating section that functions as a heat radiating terminal of the first coil winding, from a direction following the axis line of the tubular section. Here, when performing heat radiation from the coil winding, since the cover section which abuts against the heat radiating terminal when the coil winding is fixed to the heat radiating object functions as an insulating member, then the radiation of heat from the coil winding is raised without increasing the number of parts.Type: GrantFiled: April 5, 2012Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: TDK CorporationInventor: Kouji Kaneko
