Abstract
Abstract A bobbin construction, particularly for windings surrounding an assembly of ferromagnetic laminations, is described. It consists of a skeletal frame member of molded plastic having an elongated shape, generally of rectangular cross section, over which a winding may be wound. The frame member has laterally extending walls which define the space for the windings and axially extending walls defining the space of the laminations. The latter walls are so constructed as to support covers for enclosure of the core assembly.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
111 words
A bobbin construction, particularly for electrical coils having cores of ferromagnetic laminations, comprising a hollow skeletal frame member of molded plastic material over which a coil may be wound, said member having laterally extending walls defining the space for said coil and, at each end, a pair of axially-extending walls defining the space for said laminations, one of said lateral walls having axially-extending portions supporting terminal lugs for the electrical connection of said coil, said axially-extending walls having protuberant parts adapted to secure a cover member, comprising an oblong piece of flexible material having cutouts so dimensioned as to cooperate with said protuberant parts in a snap fastener mode of retention.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
111 words
A bobbin construction, particularly for electrical coils having cores of ferromagnetic laminations, comprising a hollow skeletal frame member of molded plastic material over which a coil may be wound, said member having laterally extending walls defining the space for said coil and, at each end, a pair of axially-extending walls defining the space for said laminations, one of said lateral walls having axially-extending portions supporting terminal lugs for the electrical connection of said coil, said axially-extending walls having protuberant parts adapted to secure a cover member, comprising an oblong piece of flexible material having cutouts so dimensioned as to cooperate with said protuberant parts in a snap fastener mode of retention.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
38 words
A bobbin construction in accordance with claim 2 wherein said cover member has a bottom surface of curvilinear shape adapted to flatten upon retention and in contact with the edge of said laminations, thereby exerting increased pressure thereon.
