  • the present invention further relates an electromagnetic coil manufactured employing a high-heat conductive insulating member, and an electromagnetic device.
  • one of the measures to improve the cooling performance of the electromagnetic coil is that the electro-insulating tape and sheet material used for a peripheral member of the electromagnetic coil should be made into a high heat conductivity type.
  • the heat conductivity of a conventional electro-insulating member is about 3 to 37 W/mK.
  • Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI Publication No. 11-71498 discloses that the components of the matrix resin are changed to increase the amount of the filling material, as its object, that is, increasing the heat conductivity of the electro-insulating member.
  • the heat conductivity of the electro-insulating member of this prior art document is not sufficient, and further the resins that can be employed for this reference technique are limited to special components only.
  • Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI Publication No. 2002-93257 discloses a highly heat conductive mica matrix sheet having a backing member containing inorganic powder, as the electro-insulating member used for an electromagnetic coil.
  • the heat conductive material that is used for the backing member does not exhibit a sufficiently high heat conductivity.
  • the heat conductivity is not sufficient.
  • Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI Publication No. 11-323162 is directed to an improvement of the heat conductivity of an insulating layer, and discloses that the heat conductivity of the resin can be improved by using a crystalline epoxy resin as the resin for the insulating layer.
  • the crystalline epoxy resin of this prior art document is in a solid state at room temperature, and therefore it is difficult to handle it.
  • Jpn. Pat. Appln. KOKAI Publication No. 10-174333 discloses an electromagnetic coil in which heat conductive sheets are alternately wound around a wire-wound conductor, for the object of improving the heat conductivity of an insulating layer.
  • the heat transmission is insulated by the mica layer, and therefore it is difficult to achieve a high heat conductivity.
  • the conventional insulating members entail such drawbacks that a sufficient heat conductivity cannot be obtained and the production takes much labor, time and high cost.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a widely usable highly heat conductive insulating member that can exhibit a highly heat conductive without having to use very limited components of resin and that can be easily manufactured, as well as a method of manufacturing the insulating member. Further, the object includes the provision of an electromagnetic coil that employs such a highly heat conductive insulating member, as well as an electromagnetic device.

  • the highly heat conductive insulating member of the present invention When the highly heat conductive insulating member of the present invention is used in combination with a conventional mica tape to prepare a wire-wound conductor (Cu coil), an electromagnetic coil having both of an excellent heat radiating property (cooling performance) and an excellent insulating property at the same time can be provided. It is only natural that the highly heat conductive insulating member of the present invention can be solely used.
  • the highly heat conductive insulating member according to the present invention is a tape-like or sheet-like highly heat conductive insulating member including a mica layer and a backing material layer, the insulating member characterized in that the backing material layer comprises: a resin matrix; first particles having a heat conductivity of 1 W/mK or higher and 300 W/mK or lower, that are diffused in the resin matrix; and second particles having a heat conductivity of 0.5 W/mK or higher and 300 W/mK or lower, that are diffused in the resin matrix.

  • the diameter of the second particles should be set smaller than that of the first particles, and more preferably, the diameter of the second particles should be set to 0.15 times or smaller as that of the first particles. This is because if the ratio in particle diameter of the second particles with respect to the first particles becomes closer to 0.15, the heat conductivity ⁇ decreases as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the diameter of the first particles should be set in a range of 0.05 ⁇ m or more and 100 ⁇ m or less (50 nm to 10 5 nm). If the diameter of the first particles is less than 0.05 ⁇ m, it becomes difficult to disperse the particles uniformly in the layer, and as a result, the electric breakdown strength may be deteriorated in some cases. On the other hand, if the diameter of the first particles exceeds 100 ⁇ m, the flatness of the tape member or sheet member is impaired, and further the thickness becomes uneven easily.
  • the diameter of the second particles should be set to 0.15 times or smaller as that of the mica scales. This is because if the ratio in particle diameter of the mica scales with respect to the second particles becomes closer to 0.15, the heat conductivity ⁇ decreases as in the above-described case.

It is particularly preferable that the second particles are made of either one of carbon and aluminum oxide. Carbon particle such as of carbon black is appropriate for improving the heat conductivity ⁇ of the material of the present invention. Further, aluminum oxide particle is suitable since it not only improves the heat conductivity ⁇ of the material of the present invention but also it does not impair the insulating property of the material.
  • the content of the second particles in the backing material layer should preferably be set to 0.5% by volume or more, and most preferably, it should be set to 1% by volume or more.

  • the content of the second particles should be set to 33.3% by volume or less with respect to the total amount of the second particles and the resin, and most preferably, it should be set to 23% by volume or less.

  • the solvent water or various types of alcohols can be used, and it is preferable here that water should be used.
  • the steps S21 to S23 shown in FIG. 9 are employed. Mica scales have a high aspect ratio and therefore they easily aggregate to consolidate. Thus, even after the solvent volatilizes, the shape of the consolidated body is maintained and the highly heat conductive particles are well retained. It should be noted that when a slight amount of binder resin is added, the shape maintaining property and particle retaining property are improved.
