Abstract

Abstract A method for manufacturing rectangular wound cores including a step of forming at least one developed lamination body by cutting off at least one ring-like lamination body, a step for applying adhesive agent to one of cut ends of each developed lamination body, a step forming lamination blocks each of which is comprised of plural lamination units shifted in the length-wise direction by a predetermined distance and a step for jointing both ends of each of lamination unit in an overlapping state by winding each lamination block around a shaping bobbin.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 203 words
A method for manufacturing rectangular wound cores comprising the following steps: winding a strip of an amorphous magnetic alloy around a substantially circular bobbin to form at least one ring-like lamination body, and cutting the ring-like lamination body in a radial direction to form at least one developed lamination body having two cut ends; applying adhesive agent to one cut end of said at least one developed lamination body; separating said at least one developed lamination body into a plurality of lamination units, and shifting the lamination units relative to each other in a lengthwise direction by a predetermined distance to form a plurality of lamination blocks of different lengths; and jointing both ends of each of said lamination units of each of said plurality of lamination blocks in an overlapped state by winding each lamination block around a shaping bobbin for shaping said plural lamination blocks to form a substantially rectangular wound core, said step of winding including winding the lamination blocks around the shaping bobbin in the order from the shortest lamination block to the longest lamination block and wherein each of said plurality of lamination blocks is wound starting from the cut end to which adhesive agent has been applied.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 203 words
A method for manufacturing rectangular wound cores comprising the following steps: winding a strip of an amorphous magnetic alloy around a substantially circular bobbin to form at least one ring-like lamination body, and cutting the ring-like lamination body in a radial direction to form at least one developed lamination body having two cut ends; applying adhesive agent to one cut end of said at least one developed lamination body; separating said at least one developed lamination body into a plurality of lamination units, and shifting the lamination units relative to each other in a lengthwise direction by a predetermined distance to form a plurality of lamination blocks of different lengths; and jointing both ends of each of said lamination units of each of said plurality of lamination blocks in an overlapped state by winding each lamination block around a shaping bobbin for shaping said plural lamination blocks to form a substantially rectangular wound core, said step of winding including winding the lamination blocks around the shaping bobbin in the order from the shortest lamination block to the longest lamination block and wherein each of said plurality of lamination blocks is wound starting from the cut end to which adhesive agent has been applied.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, in which first to n-th, wherein n is an integer larger than 1, developed lamination bodies are formed from first to n-th ring-like lamination bodies having diameters which increase stepwise.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 63 words
The method as claimed in claim 2, wherein said first to n-th ring-like lamination bodies are formed by winding strips of amorphous magnetic alloy around first to n-th substantially circular bobbins, and the i-th circular bobbin, wherein i is an integer of 2 to n, has a diameter larger than the outer diameter of the (i-1)-th ring-like lamination block by a predetermined length.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 43 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said substantially circular bobbin has a flat portion along the outer periphery thereof which corresponds to a shorter side of a substantially rectangular window defined by the inner periphery of said substantially rectangular wound core.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 25 words
The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein said lamination units are jointed in said overlapped state on said flat portion of said shaping bobbin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 54 words
The method as claimed in claim 4, wherein said bobbin for shaping said plural lamination blocks has a rectangular configuration substantially the same as the outer configuration of said window of said wound core, and said lamination units are jointed in an overlapped state on one of the shorter sides of said shaping bobbin.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 92 words
The method as claimed in claim 6, wherein said plurality of developed lamination blocks are stacked successively in the order from the longest lamination block to the shortest lamination block to form a stacked lamination body in which the center positions of the lamination blocks coincide with each other and the center portion of said stacked lamination body is fixed at one of the shorter sides of said shaping bobbin and, thereafter, are wound around said shaping bobbin to joint respective lamination unit son the other shorter side of said shaping bobbin.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 24 words
The method as claimed in claim 7, wherein the applied adhesive agent is softened before winding said stacked lamination body around said shaping bobbin.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 28 words
The method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said ring-like lamination body is formed to have a space factor smaller than that of the wound core being manufactured.
