Abstract
Abstract A holder for an electromagneticcoil assembly comprised of joined mirror symmetric E core halves has two bracket pieces which are disposed adjacent to joined legs of the E core halves, each bracket having a pair of bores therein for receiving at least one retainer rod. The rod extends through the brackets and an alignment bore or groove in the core halves. In one embodiment of the holder a retainer plate having bores in registry with the bracket bores also receives the retainer rod, with nuts applied to threaded ends of the retainer rod to exert a uniform retaining pressure along opposite faces of the core halves to maintain a substantially constant core air gap and maximize vibration resistance.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim
176 words
In an electromagnetic coil assembly consisting of opposed abutting E core halves each having an end face and two outer legs and a centrally disposed inner leg, and a hollow coil bobbin which receives said central legs and is disposed between said halves, a holder for said assembly comprising: two brackets disposed adjacent to said outer legs of each core half, each said bracket having a pair of spaced bores; at least one retainer received in said bores in said brackets, said retainer terminating in two threaded ends; a means in said E core half legs for receiving and aligning said retainer, whereby said retainer extends through said brackets and said means in said core half legs to hold said halves between said brackets; a pair of nuts received on said threaded ends of said retainer for applying uniform retaining pressure to said halves in cooperation with said brackets; and at least one vertical leg respectively depending downwardly from each bracket, each said vertical leg carrying means thereon for attaching said vertical leg to a circuit.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
176 words
In an electromagnetic coil assembly consisting of opposed abutting E core halves each having an end face and two outer legs and a centrally disposed inner leg, and a hollow coil bobbin which receives said central legs and is disposed between said halves, a holder for said assembly comprising: two brackets disposed adjacent to said outer legs of each core half, each said bracket having a pair of spaced bores; at least one retainer received in said bores in said brackets, said retainer terminating in two threaded ends; a means in said E core half legs for receiving and aligning said retainer, whereby said retainer extends through said brackets and said means in said core half legs to hold said halves between said brackets; a pair of nuts received on said threaded ends of said retainer for applying uniform retaining pressure to said halves in cooperation with said brackets; and at least one vertical leg respectively depending downwardly from each bracket, each said vertical leg carrying means thereon for attaching said vertical leg to a circuit.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
27 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said means in said E core half legs for receiving and aligning said retainer are aligned bores extending through said legs.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
30 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said means in said E core half legs for receiving and aligning said retainer are grooves carried on the outer surfaces of said legs.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
21 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said bracket consists of a central bridge portion having two bracket legs downwardly extending therefrom.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
28 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said bracket is T-shaped having a crossbar carrying said bores in said bracket, and having a vertical portion forming said vertical leg.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
24 words
The holder of claim 5 wherein said crossbar terminates in two right angle flanges which surround and receive corners of said E core halves.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
32 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said retainer is a U-shaped rod having a central bridge portion from which two parallel legs respectively terminating in said threaded ends extend at right angles.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
63 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said retainer is a pair of rods each having a first hooked end received in one of the bores of one of said brackets and each having at an opposite end one of said threaded ends which is received in one of the bores of the other bracket with said E core halves retained between said brackets.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
44 words
The holder of claim 1 wherein said means for attaching said vertical leg to a circuit board is a right angle flange carried at a lowest portion of said vertical leg, said flange having at least one hole therein for receiving a mounting bolt.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
