Patented Apr. 10, 1951 ELECTRICAL COIL Jerome .S. Franks, Cicero, 111., assignor to Western Electric Company, Incorporated, New York, N. Y., a corporation of New York Application October 29, 1947, Serial No. 782,705
4 Claims.
This invention relates to electrical coils and more particularly to electrical coils having magnetic cores.
An object of this invention is to provide a new and eflicient electrical coil with a magnetic core.
In accordance with one embodiment of this invention an induction coil is provided wherein windings of insulated wire are applied on an inner folded laminated core section of magnetic material which forms a central leg along a diameter of an outer cylindrical core portion comprising a coiled strip of magnetic material which protectively surrounds the coil as a container and also provides the pro-per magnetic path. The central core section is supported between concave surfaces formed on legs of cooperating plates which legs also serve to engage and position the outer cylindrical core portion, one of the plates carrying outwardly extending terminal plugs connected to the coil windings and adapted to conmeet and mount the assembly on associated apparatus.
A complete understanding of this invention will be had by referring to the following detailed description taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawing, in which Fig. 1 is a partly broken away View from the bottom of an induction coil embodying the features of the invention;
Fig. 2 is a view partly in front elevation of the coil shown in Fig. 1 and partly in section taken on the lines 22 of Fig. 1;
Fig. 3 is a sectional view of the coil shown in Figs; 1 and 2 takenon the lines 3-3 of Figs. 1 and 2; and
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary View showing in detail the manner in which the ends of the inner core section are clamped by the projections extending from the top and bottom plates.
As will be seen in the drawing, a plug-in induction coil l may be formed in accordance with the present invention by mounting a coil unit H on an inner core section l2 made of any suitable magnetic material, for example, silicon steel which may be in strip form and folded in accordion fashion to form a laminated core with low hysteresis loss. The coil unit H may have one or more separate windings. Several layers of acetate sheet I3 may be interposed between the inner surface of the coil and the core section I2 which i supported at its ends between concave surfaces |4|4 and l5-l5 formed on projections or legs -20 and 2l2| extending downwardly from a circular top plate 22 and upwardly from a similar bottom plate 23, respectively, which plates may be made of any suitable insulating material, for example, a thermoplastic or thermosetting moldable material.
The ends 24 of the windings of the coil unit H may be connected to prong-type terminals 25 fixed in the bottom plate 23 in spaced relation to each other to adapt the unit for mounting in a base having jacks to receive the terminal prongs 25.
An outer circular core portion or member 30 formed preferably from a ribbon of silicon steel wound in a tight cylindrical-tube is positioned between the upper plate 22 and the lower plate 23 in such a manner that the extending portions 20-40 and 2I2l lie just inside the cylindrical outer core portion 38 and the ends of the core ection 12 contact its inner surface 3| to form a closed magnetic circuit through the cylindrical core portion or member 30 and the inner core section i2. To prevent the spirally wound core portion 30 from springing open, the ends of the silicon ribbon may be tack welded or riveted to their adjacent layers of ribbon.
The assembled parts are clamped together by a pair of machine screws 32-"2 which pass oppositely disposed tubular projections 33 and 34 extending upward from the lower plate 23 and are threaded into hollow tubular projections 35 and 36 which extend downward from the upper plate 22 and are in coaxial alignment with the tubular projections 33 and 34, respectively. Forcing the screws 32-32 into the threaded tubular portions 35 and 36 causes the ends of the inner core section I2 to be clamped between the concave surfaces l4--|4 and l5-I5 and also clamps the cylindrical outer core portion 30 between the plates 22 and 23.
The completed induction coil forms a compact fully enclosed unit, the outer core portion 30, providing not only a path for the magnetic circuit but also a protective housing for the coil windings.
What is claimed is:
