Abstract

Abstract An external core member is mounted on a dielectric substrate. The external core member is made of a magnetic material and is formed with a through bore. A coil member is disposed on the substrate and within the through bore. An elastic material casting is formed in the through bore and about the coil member, and having a core receiving bore formed therein. The core receiving bore is arranged coaxially with the longitudinal axis of the coil member so as to extend through the coil member at its center portion. A movable core of a magnetic material is movably retained in the core receiving bore.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim 265 words
A method of fabricating a high frequency coil assembly or transformer, comprising the following steps: preparing a substrate having a plurality of electrodes and having a through bore in its center portion; disposing the substrate on a first casting core which has a flat base and a projection projecting perpendicularly from said flat base, the arrangement of the substrate on said casting core being such that said substrate lies on said flat base and said projection extends axially through the bore thereof; winding a coil around said projection; disposing an external core member on said substrate circumferentially of said coil, said external core member being made of a magnetic material and having a through bore therein, the arrangement of said external core member on said substrate being such that the longitudinal axis of said through bore of said external core member is coaxial with the longitudinal axis of said projection and encloses said coil; disposing a second casting core on said projection such that the axes of said second casting core and said projection are coaxial, said projection being dimensioned such that said second casting core is partly received in said through bore of said external core member, and said second casting core having a larger diameter than said projection; casting a settable elastic material into said through bore of said external core member; removing said first and second casting cores after setting of said elastic material, thereby forming a core-receiving bore in said elastic material; and inserting a movable core made of a magnetic material into said core-receiving bore of the elastic casting material.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 265 words
A method of fabricating a high frequency coil assembly or transformer, comprising the following steps: preparing a substrate having a plurality of electrodes and having a through bore in its center portion; disposing the substrate on a first casting core which has a flat base and a projection projecting perpendicularly from said flat base, the arrangement of the substrate on said casting core being such that said substrate lies on said flat base and said projection extends axially through the bore thereof; winding a coil around said projection; disposing an external core member on said substrate circumferentially of said coil, said external core member being made of a magnetic material and having a through bore therein, the arrangement of said external core member on said substrate being such that the longitudinal axis of said through bore of said external core member is coaxial with the longitudinal axis of said projection and encloses said coil; disposing a second casting core on said projection such that the axes of said second casting core and said projection are coaxial, said projection being dimensioned such that said second casting core is partly received in said through bore of said external core member, and said second casting core having a larger diameter than said projection; casting a settable elastic material into said through bore of said external core member; removing said first and second casting cores after setting of said elastic material, thereby forming a core-receiving bore in said elastic material; and inserting a movable core made of a magnetic material into said core-receiving bore of the elastic casting material.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 63 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said second casting core has a thread along its length, and wherein said movable core has first and second portions each having a different diameter, said first portion having a screw thread along its length and having means for turning the same at its top end, and having a larger diameter than said second portion.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 78 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said second casting core has a plurality of slits on its surface in a substantially parallel relationship with its axis whereby a plurality of ribs are produced in said core-receiving bore with said plurality of slits each initially having an even surface but being tapped to form a thread when said movable core is first screwed therein, and wherein said movable core has an external screw thread along its length.
