Abstract
Abstract A plurality of winding units are each wound in winding channels formed in a bobbin. Each of the winding units include start and finish location conductor portions or termination leads or segments located at predetermined longitudinal and angular positions relative to the longitudinal axis of the bobbin. Longitudinally extensive connecting conductors are located inward of the bobbin outer surface. A plurality of passageways are formed in shoulders or partitions separating the winding channels. These passageways provide access from the outer surface to the connecting conductors. Guide tracks connect the winding channels with the passageways and guide the conductor wire of a winding unit from its winding channel to a passageway for positioning a start or finish conductor portion of the winding unit over the passageway. A radial extension of the longitudinal connecting conductor extends into the passageway and provides electrical interconnection between the connecting conductor and the start or finish conductor portion of the winding unit.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 13
Claim 1
Independent Claim
203 words
A winding structure comprising: a bobbin; at least a first winding channel situated adjacent an outer surface of said bobbin, at least a first conductor winding unit about said first winding channel, said first winding unit including at least a first conductor termination segment located at a first predetermined longitudinal position along a longitudinal axis of said bobbin and at a first predetermined angular position about said longitudinal axis; at least a first longitudinal connecting conductor located inwardly of said outer surface and traversing at least a portion of said bobbin in a direction generally along said longitudinal axis; a winding channel shoulder located in the vicinity of said first predetermined longitudinal position; at least a first passageway located in said shoulder adjacent said first predetermined angular position providing access to said first longitudinal connecting conductor; at least one guide track located in said shoulder connecting said first passageway to said first winding channel guiding a conductor portion of said first winding unit from said first winding channel to said passageway for emplacing said first conductor termination segment; and first electrical interconnecting means located in said first passageway providing electrical connection between said first conductor termination segment and said first longitudinal connecting conductor.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
203 words
A winding structure comprising: a bobbin; at least a first winding channel situated adjacent an outer surface of said bobbin, at least a first conductor winding unit about said first winding channel, said first winding unit including at least a first conductor termination segment located at a first predetermined longitudinal position along a longitudinal axis of said bobbin and at a first predetermined angular position about said longitudinal axis; at least a first longitudinal connecting conductor located inwardly of said outer surface and traversing at least a portion of said bobbin in a direction generally along said longitudinal axis; a winding channel shoulder located in the vicinity of said first predetermined longitudinal position; at least a first passageway located in said shoulder adjacent said first predetermined angular position providing access to said first longitudinal connecting conductor; at least one guide track located in said shoulder connecting said first passageway to said first winding channel guiding a conductor portion of said first winding unit from said first winding channel to said passageway for emplacing said first conductor termination segment; and first electrical interconnecting means located in said first passageway providing electrical connection between said first conductor termination segment and said first longitudinal connecting conductor.
