Abstract

Abstract A high-voltage transformer is provided which includes a primary coil and a secondary coil disposed in a coil case, and a support member attached to the coil case and having a high-voltage terminal for electrically connecting a lead wire of the secondary coil with an external electrical device. The primary and secondary coil are first accommodated in the coil case, and the lead wire of the secondary coil is temporarily connected with the high-voltage terminal while the support member is separated from the coil case and freely moved to an appropriate location. Then, the lead wire of the secondary coil thus temporarily connected is soldered to the high-voltage terminal. Thereafter, the support member having the high-voltage terminal thus soldered to the secondary coil lead wire is attached to the coil case. Finally, a resin is filled into the coil case so as to firmly secure the primary and secondary coils and the support member to the coil case.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 15
Claim 1
Independent Claim 144 words
A method for making a high-voltage transformer which includes a primary coil and a secondary coil disposed in a coil case, and a support member attached to said coil case and having a high-voltage terminal for electrically connecting a lead wire of said secondary coil with an external electrical device, said method comprising the steps of: accommodating said primary and secondary coil in said coil case; temporarily connecting the lead wire of said secondary coil with said high-voltage terminal while said support member is separate from said coil case and freely movable to an appropriate location; soldering the temporarily connected lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal; attaching said support member to said coil case; and filling a resin in said coil case so as to firmly secure said primary and secondary coils and said support member to said coil case.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 144 words
A method for making a high-voltage transformer which includes a primary coil and a secondary coil disposed in a coil case, and a support member attached to said coil case and having a high-voltage terminal for electrically connecting a lead wire of said secondary coil with an external electrical device, said method comprising the steps of: accommodating said primary and secondary coil in said coil case; temporarily connecting the lead wire of said secondary coil with said high-voltage terminal while said support member is separate from said coil case and freely movable to an appropriate location; soldering the temporarily connected lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal; attaching said support member to said coil case; and filling a resin in said coil case so as to firmly secure said primary and secondary coils and said support member to said coil case.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 64 words
A method of making a high-voltage transformer as claimed in claim 1, wherein in said temporarily connecting step, the lead wire of said secondary coil is inserted into a small aperture in said high-voltage terminal for temporary connection therewith, and any slack in the lead wire of said secondary coil thus inserted is removed before said lead wire is soldered to said high-voltage terminal.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 33 words
A method of making a high-voltage transformer as claimed in claim 1, wherein in said support member attaching step, said support member is press fitted into a mounting hole in said coil case.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 108 words
A process for producing a high-voltage transformer comprising: disposing a primary coil around an iron core in a coil case; disposing around said primary coil a secondary coil having a lead wire; separately forming a high voltage terminal assembly, said high voltage terminal assembly having a support member and a high-voltage terminal; connecting said lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal while said support member is separate from said coil case; attaching said support member to a portion of said coil case; and securing said primary and secondary coils and said support member to said coil case by filling said coil case with a resin.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 108 words
A process for producing a high-voltage transformer comprising: disposing a primary coil around an iron core in a coil case; disposing around said primary coil a secondary coil having a lead wire; separately forming a high voltage terminal assembly, said high voltage terminal assembly having a support member and a high-voltage terminal; connecting said lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal while said support member is separate from said coil case; attaching said support member to a portion of said coil case; and securing said primary and secondary coils and said support member to said coil case by filling said coil case with a resin.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 29 words
The process according to claim 4 wherein said high-voltage terminal is formed atone end with a small aperture into which said lead wire of said secondary coil is inserted.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 13 words
The processof claim 5 wherein said lead wire is soldered to said terminal.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 44 words
The process according to claim 4 wherein said support member has a reduced-diameter mounting portion member which is provided on its outer peripheral surface with an annular groove for guiding said resin into interstices between the engaged surfaces of said support member mounting portion.

The process of claim 4 wherein said portion has a mounting hole.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 28 words
The process of claim 4 wherein said support member has a mounting portion adapted to be inserted into a mounting hole in said portion on said coil case.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 125 words
A process for producing a high-voltage transformer comprising: disposing a primary coil around an iron core in a coil case; disposing around said primary coil a second coil having a lead wire; forming a high voltage terminal assembly separate from said coil case, said terminal assembly having a support member and a high-voltage terminal; temporarily connecting said lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal while said support member is separate from said coil case and subsequently soldering said lead wire of said secondary coil to said high-voltage terminal; attaching said support member to a portion of said coil case; and securing said primary and secondary coils and said support member to said coil case by filling said coil case with a resin.
Claim 13
