Patent number: 8598973Abstract: A reactor that is fabricated with high productivity is provided. The reactor 1 includes an annular magnetic core 11, a coil molded product 12A, and an external resin portion 13. The coil molded product 12A is disposed around an outer periphery of the magnetic core 11, the external resin portion 13 covers an outer periphery of an assembly 10 of the magnetic core 11 and the coil molded product 12A. The magnetic core 2 includes a plurality of core pieces that are combined so as to form an annular shape. The magnetic core 2 is fixed in the annular shape using the external resin portion 13 that covers the magnetic core without use of adhesive. The coil molded product 12A includes a coil 12 formed of a helically wound wire 12w and an internal resin portion 12c that maintains the coil 12 in a compressed state. Since the magnetic core 11 is formed without adhesive, a bonding step is not required. Due to use of the coil molded product 12A, the coil 12 needs not be compressed while forming the reactor 1.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2010Date of Patent: December 3, 2013Assignee: Sumitomo Electric Industries, Ltd.Inventor: Hajime Kawaguchi

Patent number: 8487732Abstract: There are many varieties of windings. Coils adopting an edgewise winding wire in which winding wires are wound around in the radial direction of the coil have a wide flux linkage area orthogonal to the electric wire, so that stray loss within the wire is increased, winding wire loss is increased and temperature is raised thereby. The present invention provides an arrangement in which a plurality of coil units are prepared and connected via external coupling terminals. At this time, winding is performed so that the contact faces of the coil units have equal potentials, so that there is no need to ensure an insulation distance between coils, and the coils can be downsized. Therefore, the mass of the respective coils can be reduced. Taps disposed on the respective coils are arranged to have equal potentials, according to which the external coupling terminals can double as tap switch terminals, so that there is no need to provide a dedicated tap switch.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2011Date of Patent: July 16, 2013Assignee: Hitachi Industrial Equipment Systems Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaki Takeuchi, Atsushi Suzuki, Tatsuhito Azegami
