BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention:
This invention pertains to the design and manufacturing of electric or electronic devices and more particularly to the design and manufacturing of electric or electronic devices that include a magnetic component structure composed of at least one magnetic core to provide a magnetic path for the magnetic flux and at least one conductive coil winding to provide magneto-motive forces.
2. Description of the Related Art:
Developing modern electronic devices requires the magnetic components to be small in size, powerful in performance and minimal in electromagnetic interference. To decrease the overall structure size while enhancing electrical properties of such magnetic components, manufacturers must overcome many challenges that are associated with the complexity of manufacturing processes and the increase of manufacturing cost. The reduction of manufacturing cost has been strongly demanded for the small stnicture size yet powerful magnetic components such as inductors and transformers. This is so for
those magnetic components of low cost and high volume.
The growing interest on the small size yet high power density electronic devices challenges the design and manufacturing of the magnetic components. The core size and the coil size must be reduced to reduce the overall structure size of the magnetic components despite an increased current being carried by the magnetic components. The manufacturing processes also need to be optimized and simplified to reduce the cost while improving the performance. Many efforts have been dedicated to optimize the core shapes to maximize the usage of the core material. Many efforts have also been contributed to simplify the manufacturing processes to reduce the manufacturing cost and improve the competitiveness.
Conventional magnetic components typically include a magnetic core and a winding or a coil wound on the magnetic core. The core may be fabricated from magnetic materials and is typically formed at certain shapes prior winding. The core may include over one core pieces and the shapes may include I core, EE core, U core, toroidal core, pot core, T core, and other shapes. The core may be bonded with epoxy, epoxy combined with glass bead, or other composite magnetic materials. The coils or windings are fabricated from a conductive wire such as a magnet wire or a tin coated copper wire. The coils are further fabricated by wrapping the wire around a core piece completely formed to a certain shape beforehand. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention generally relates to the design and manufacturing of electric or electronic devices that include a magnetic component structure composed of at least one magnetic core to provide a magnetic path for the magnetic flux and at least one conductive coil winding to provide magneto-motive forces. Under the present invention,
a conductive coil or coils are wound on a flexible magnetic core. A magnetic path is then formed by rolling the flexible magnetic core with the wound coil or coils to a closed or gapped loop which can be formed into variety of shapes such as a toroidal shape. The conductive coils can be made of including but not limited to insulated round magnet wires, insulated square or rectangular magnet wires, insulated square and rectangular conductive films, insulated bondable magnet wires, Litz wire, triple insulation wires, and cables. The coil or coils can be directly wound on the flexible magnetic core or indirectly wound on the flexible magnetic core with the use of a fixture. The fixture is used either together with or separately from the flexible magnetic core. When used together with the flexible magnetic core, the fixture guides the winding or windings on the flexible magnetic core. With the fixture and the flexible magnetic core separate, the indirect method winds the coil or coils on the fixture first and then shifts the coil or coils to the flexible magnetic core. The flexible magnetic core is made of a flexible magnetic sheet or sheets. The flexible magnetic sheet or sheets has or have predefined thickness, width, and length and has or have a relatively high electrical resistivity, and the flexible magnetic sheet or sheets can be but is not or are not limited to rectangular in shape. The magnetic sheet is fabricated by magnetic materials, such as magnetic powder materials or ferrite materials combined with flexible insulation materials, such as polymer or rubber. With the rolled structure of the magnetic sheet or sheets, a magnetic path is formed to facilitate the circulation of the magnetic flux. The rolling method enables the flexible magnetic core with the wound coil or coils to form different shapes. An encapsulation casing can be included to secure the coil winding or windings and the flexible magnetic core. The conductive coil or coils can include a plurality of turns. The conductive coil or coils can also be directly-fed-through wires, and the coils can be contained in a cable or a plurality of cables. A variety of magnetic components, including
but not limited to axial inductors, radial inductors, common mode inductors, transformers, noise suppression filters, and low profile packed inductors can be manufactured by using the magnetic component structure and the manufacturing method. Such magnetic components may be power management devices in electrical systems and electronic devices in electronics, and such magnetic components have low electromagnetic emission and interference due to the looping nature of the magnetic flux path and in the meantime maintain high performance and small size due to the extensible nature of the flexible magnetic core.

manufacturing processes. AXIAL INDUCTORS
Figures 1-4 disclose a magnetic component as an axial power inductor. The axial power inductor comprises a ilexible magnetic core 102 and a coil 104. The coil 104 includes a first end 100, a second end 101, and a plurality of turns wrapped on the flexible magnetic core. The coil can be fabricated from materials that can include but are not limited to insulated round magnet wires, insulated square or rectangular magnet wires, insulated square and rectangular conductive films, insulated bondable magnet wires, Litz wire, and triple insulation wires. The first end 100 and the second end 101 can be the same material as the coil winding or different material. Both 100 and 101 can connect to the electrical circuit to receive and deliver electrical current. The flexible core comprises at least one flexible magnetic sheet. The magnetic sheet can be a magnetic powder sheet fabricated from magnetic powder and polymeric resin, or a magnetic ferrite sheet fabricated from Ferrite and polymeric resin, or any magnetic material sheet fabricated from magnetic property materials and flexible resin materials or rubber materials. The magnetic sheet, which has a predefined thickness, width, length and relative magnetic permeability, is flexible and can roll at a small radius without crack. The magnetic sheet further has a relatively high electrical resistivity.
Figures 1 -4 also disclose the manufacturing process of this embodiment. First, wind a coil or winding on a flexible magnetic core composed of at least one flexible magnetic sheet. This step is illustrated in the Figure 1. The coil can be directly wound on the flexible magnetic core or can be indirectly wound on the flexible magnetic core with the use of a fixture. For example, the coil can be wound on the combined object of the flexible magnetic core and the fixture with the fixture removed after the winding is
completed. For another example, the coil can be wound on a fixture first and then be shifted onto the flexible magnetic core. Second, roll the wound magnetic core to form a looped magnetic flux path. The combined object of the coil and the flexible magnetic core will be rolled together. There is a plurality of ways in rolling the wound flexible magnetic core, which include but are not limited to the following three examples. For the first example, which is illustrated in Figure 2 and Figure 3, the manufacturing process includes rolling the wound flexible magnetic core over one roll, and there is a small portion of the rolled magnetic core overlapped so the magnetic flux path is a closed loop and the magnetic flux will circulate inside the core. By doing so, the magnetic flux that escapes to the adjacent area can be minimized and the electromagnetic emission can be minimized. The core overlapping portion is directly contacted by the sheet material. For the second example, the manufacturing process includes rolling the wound flexible magnetic core over one roll through a small portion of a tape or a similar low magnetic conductive material to create a gap in the magnetic flux path. For the third example, the flexible magnetic core is rolled for a plurality of rolls. Third, secure and solidify the rolled coil and core by a piece of tape or by an epoxy resin encapsulation or by other means. Figure 4 illustrates the finished encapsulated axial power inductor. 105 in figure 4 shows the encapsulated coil and core, and the first end 100 and the second end 101 , which are on the opposite sides of the secure encapsulation, can be stripped and then tinned before or after these process steps.
