Vom Wicklungsabschnitt 16 wird der Wcklungsdraht 10 in der mittleren Led end portion 29 and then the Wcklungsabschnitt 14, then the winding portion 15 and then the winding portion 16 is wound first. From the winding section 16 of the Waklungsdraht 10 is in the middle
Spulenkammer 27 zum Hochspannungsabgang 5 geführt. Spool chamber 27 led to the high voltage outlet 5.
Am Hochspannungsabgang 5 wird der Wcklungsdraht 10 mehrfach um einen Kern 6 herumgewickelt, um ein Entstörelement zu bilden. Somit ist das At high voltage output 5, the spooling wire 10 is wound around a core 6 several times to form a suppression element. So that's it
Entstörelement integral mit dem Hochspannungsabgang 5 gebildet, so dass keine zusätzlichen Entstörwiderstände notwendig sind. Es sei angemerkt, dass der Kern 6 eine beliebige Form, entsprechend einer gewünschten Anwendung (lang, kurz, breit, schmal) haben kann, und dass der Wicklungsdraht in einer beliebigen Anzahl von Wicklungen, welche zur Entstörung der Zündspule benötigt werden, um den Kern herumgewickelt werden kann. Suppressor element formed integrally with the high-voltage outlet 5, so that no additional suppression resistors are necessary. It should be noted that the core 6 may have any shape, according to a desired application (long, short, wide, narrow), and that the winding wire in any number of windings, which are required for the suppression of the ignition coil, around the core can be wrapped around.
Somit kann erfindungsgemäß die Bauteileanzahl insbesondere am heißen Ende im Bereich des Hochspannungsabgangs 5 im Vergleich mit dem Stand der Technik deutlich reduziert werden. Ferner weist die erfindungsgemäße Thus, according to the invention, the number of components, in particular at the hot end in the region of the high-voltage outlet 5, can be significantly reduced in comparison with the prior art. Furthermore, the inventive
Zündspule einen verbesserten thermischen Aufbau auf, da der letzte Ignition coil on an improved thermal design, as the last
Wicklungsabschnitt 16 nahe der Mitte des Spulenkörpers 2 angeordnet ist. Winding portion 16 is disposed near the center of the bobbin 2.
Hierdurch kann insbesondere ein Temperaturgefälle zwischen dem ersten Endbereich 28 und dem zweiten Endbereich 29 des Spulenkörpers reduziert werden. Die im Ausführungsbeispiel beschriebene Wcklung 9 ist insbesondere als Sekundärwicklung der Zündspule ausgebildet. Der erfindungsgemäße Spulenkörper eignet sich weiterhin besonders zur Verwendung in In this way, in particular, a temperature gradient between the first end region 28 and the second end region 29 of the bobbin can be reduced. The Wcklung 9 described in the embodiment is designed in particular as a secondary winding of the ignition coil. The bobbin according to the invention is also particularly suitable for use in
Kompaktzündspulen. Kompaktzündspulen.
Es sei angemerkt, dass die Wicklungsabschnitte 17, 18 auch ohne It should be noted that the winding sections 17, 18 also without
Spulenkammern einfach auf den Spulenkörper mit einem gewissen Abstand gewickelt werden können. Spool chambers can be easily wound on the bobbin with a certain distance.
