Abstract

Abstract An inlet type noise filter which can be directly mounted to a substrate or the like includes a casing, a pair of output terminals, a ground terminal projecting from a surface of the casing and a retaining portion projecting from the same surface of the casing that the terminals project from. The retaining portion extends through bores in the substrate and engage the substrate to secure the noise filter to the substrate. The terminals can then be operatively electrically connected by soldering or the like to conductive patterns on the substrate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 167 words
An inlet type noise filter device comprising: a casing having an open end and a surface extending perpendicular to said open end, said casing comprising an insulating resin portion and a metal portion extending over said insulating resin portion and in which said insulating resin portion is disposed; an inlet socket disposed over the open end of said casing and including a bayonet portion; a ground terminal and output terminals projecting from and extending perpendicular to said surface of said casing; a filter circuit means for filtering noise, said circuit disposed within said casing and operatively electrically connected to said socket and said terminals; a printed substrate on which said casing is mounted, said ground terminals and said output terminal secured directly to said printed substrate; and the metal portion of said casing including retaining portions extending in the same direction as do said terminals, said retaining portions engaging said printed substrate for securing said casing in which the filter circuit is disposed to said printed substrate.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 167 words
An inlet type noise filter device comprising: a casing having an open end and a surface extending perpendicular to said open end, said casing comprising an insulating resin portion and a metal portion extending over said insulating resin portion and in which said insulating resin portion is disposed; an inlet socket disposed over the open end of said casing and including a bayonet portion; a ground terminal and output terminals projecting from and extending perpendicular to said surface of said casing; a filter circuit means for filtering noise, said circuit disposed within said casing and operatively electrically connected to said socket and said terminals; a printed substrate on which said casing is mounted, said ground terminals and said output terminal secured directly to said printed substrate; and the metal portion of said casing including retaining portions extending in the same direction as do said terminals, said retaining portions engaging said printed substrate for securing said casing in which the filter circuit is disposed to said printed substrate.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 17 words
An inlet type noise filter device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said terminals are each pin-shaped.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 43 words
An inlet type noise filter as claimed in claim 1, wherein each of said retainer portions comprises a retaining piece having an outermost end spaced from said surface; and a hook extending from said outermost end of the retaining piece and inclined thereto.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 75 words
An inlet type noise filter device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said device further comprises a box including an inlet wall, said inlet wall having an opening extending therethrough and slits defined therein alongside said opening, and wherein said bayonet portion includes a flange portion extending in said slits for mounting said casing to said box, said inlet socket extending in said opening so as to be exposed at the exterior of said box.
