Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coil device, a method of manufacturing the coil device, and a fuel injection valve. More particular, the present invention relates to a method of electric connection between a coil and an external terminal in the coil device.
  • a coil is electrically and mechanically connected with a terminal for external connection (external terminal) via an intermediate terminal (intermediate conductive part).
  • a wire of a coil is joined with one end of the intermediate terminal in the vicinity of the coil. Thereafter, the other end of the intermediate terminal is joined with the external terminal.
  • a short wire is partially drawn outside of a coil, and an intermediate terminal is joined with the short wire.
  • the wire, which is partially drawn outside of the coil is short. Accordingly, it is not easy to peel an insulating coating away from a portion of the wire, which is to be joined, prior to joining the wire with the intermediate terminal. Therefore, it is conventionally common to use a joining method, such as fusing welding, in which the insulating coating is melted and peeled off simultaneously with joining.
  • the wire which is partially drawn outside of the coil, is short, and the coil is located in the vicinity of that portion of the wire, which is to be joined to the intermediate terminal. Accordingly, the joining work becomes difficult, and setting and control of joining conditions become difficult.
  • heat generated in the joining work is apt to be conducted to the coil, and the heat may likely affect the coil or a bobbin of the coil.
  • a coil need to be assembled to a body device such as a solenoid of a solenoid valve, after the wire of the coil is joined with the intermediate terminal. Therefore, a concentrated load is apt to arise in an assembling process, and the concentrated load may be applied to the region, in which the wire of the coil is joined with the intermediate terminal. Besides, the concentrated load may be applied to the short wire drawn outside of the coil. Accordingly, the wire may be broken due to the concentrated load.
  • an intermediate terminal is located between a coil and an external terminal. Therefore, it is necessary to perform joining at both respective ends of the intermediate terminal. Accordingly, manhour for joining twice causes an increase in manufacturing cost of a coil device.
  • An intermediate terminal may be bent by 90° midway, so that an orientation of the intermediate terminal may be changed, in order to decrease the height of a body device such as a solenoid valve, on which a coil device is mounted, and to improve the quality of mount of the body device.
  • a failure in conduction will be caused when the bent portion of the intermediate terminal is broken.
  • a coil device includes a coil, a pipe-shaped terminal, and an external terminal.
  • the coil includes a wire provided with an electrically insulating coating.

  • the wire has a start portion and an end portion that are drawn outside of the coil.
  • the start portion of the wire and the end portion of the wire are inserted into a pipe-shaped terminal.

  • the external terminal is conductive.
  • the external terminal is electrically connected with the pipe-shaped terminal for external connection.
  • the coil includes a bobbin.
  • the wire is wound around the bobbin.
  • the pipe-shaped terminal has one end that is inserted into the bobbin.
  • the pipe-shaped terminal is arranged in a bent state.

  • the start portion of the wire and the end portion of the wire are crimped with the pipe-shaped terminal on the substantially opposite side of the coil with respect to the location, in which the pipe-shaped terminal is in the bent state.
  • the external terminal is welded with the pipe-shaped terminal on the substantially opposite side of the coil with respect to the location, in which the pipe-shaped terminal is in the bent state.
  • the wire is equal to 0.5 mm or less in diameter.
  • a fuel injection valve defines a pressure control chamber connected with an inflow passage, through which the pressure control chamber is supplied with high-pressure fuel.
  • the pressure control chamber defines a discharge passage, through which high-pressure fuel in the pressure control chamber is discharged.
  • the fuel injection valve includes a valve, a spring, a needle, a nozzle body, and a solenoid valve.
  • the valve is capable of opening and closing the discharge passage to control pressure in the pressure control chamber.
  • the spring biases the valve in a direction in which the valve closes the discharge passage.
  • the needle displaces in accordance with pressure in the pressure control chamber.
  • the nozzle body defines a fuel jet nozzle. The fuel jet nozzle is opened and closed by the needle.

  • a pressure rod 14 is arranged around a connection between the control piston 3 and the needle 7.
  • the pressure rod 14 is biased by a spring 15, which is connected to the top of the pressure rod 14, to push the needle 7 downward, in which the fuel injection valve 1 is closed.
  • the orifice plate 4 is arranged on an end surface of the lower body 2, which is opened to the upper end of the cylinder 9, to form a pressure control chamber 16 communicated to the cylinder 9.

  • the ball valve 23 is mounted at a lower end of the moving valve 24.
  • the valve body 25 holds the moving valve 24 slidably in a vertical direction.
  • the valve body 25 positions the orifice plate 4 at the top of the lower body 2.
  • the spring 26 biases the moving valve 24 downward in a direction in which the fuel injection valve 1 is closed.

  • the solenoid valve is assembled to the top of the lower body 2, and fixedly joined to the top of the lower body 2 by an upper body 28.
  • the solenoid 27 includes a coil device 40 provided with a coil 31, a stator core 32, and a stopper 33.
  • the coil 31 generates magnetomotive force by energization.
  • the stator core 32 attracts the moving valve 24 with the magnetomotive force generated by the coil 31.
  • the stopper 33 abuts against the moving valve 24 when the moving valve 24 is attracted, and sets an upper limit of lift of the moving valve 24.
