［１−２．詳細構成］
図２は、第１実施形態に係るリアクトルの分解斜視図である。図１及び図２に示すように、リアクトル１は、コア１０、コア１０を被覆する樹脂部材２０、及び、樹脂部材２０を介してコア１０の一部に装着されるコイル４０を備えている。 [1-2. Detailed configuration]
FIG. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the reactor according to the first embodiment. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the reactor 1 includes a core 10, a resin member 20 that covers the core 10, and a coil 40 that is mounted on a part of the core 10 via the resin member 20.

コア１０は、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３及びヨーク部１４、１５を有し、環状に構成されている。中脚部１１は、コイル４０が装着される柱状のコアである。ここでは、中脚部１１は、３つの円柱状の中脚コア１１ａ〜１１ｃが軸を共通にして接着剤等で接合されて柱形状を成している。中脚部１１の断面は円形である。 The core 10 has a middle leg portion 11, outer leg portions 12, 13 and yoke portions 14, 15, and is formed in an annular shape. The middle leg portion 11 is a columnar core on which the coil 40 is mounted. Here, the middle leg portion 11 has a pillar shape in which three columnar middle leg cores 11a to 11c are joined with an adhesive or the like with a common shaft. The cross section of the middle leg portion 11 is circular.

外脚部１２、１３は、柱状であり、中脚部１１を中央にして中脚部１１と並列に配置されている。外脚部１２、１３は、中脚部１１よりも設置対象物に近くなるように配置されている。すなわち、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３は平行に配置され、かつ、外脚部１２、１３が配置される仮想的な平面から離れているものの、外脚部１２と外脚部１３の間に入り込むように中脚部１１が配置されている。本実施形態では、外脚部１２、１３は、ブロック状の外脚コア１２ａ〜１２ｃ、１３ａ〜１３ｃを接着剤等で接合して柱形状を成している。外脚部１２、１３は、断面が概略直角三角形状を有する。具体的には、直角三角形の斜辺が外脚部１２、１３において中脚部１１又はコイル４０と対向する部分である。当該外脚部１２、１３の中脚部１１又はコイル４０と対向する部分は、コイル４０の外周に沿った形状を有する。特に、外脚部１２、１３のコイル４０と対向する部分の縁１６が、丸みを帯びた形状になっており（図３参照）、丸みを持たせず角にした場合と比べてコイル４０の外周との距離を長くしている。 The outer legs 12 and 13 are columnar and are arranged in parallel with the middle legs 11 with the middle legs 11 at the center. The outer legs 12 and 13 are arranged so as to be closer to the installation target than the middle legs 11. That is, although the middle leg 11 and the outer legs 12 and 13 are arranged in parallel and separated from the virtual plane on which the outer legs 12 and 13 are arranged, the outer leg 12 and the outer leg 13 are arranged. The middle leg portion 11 is arranged so as to enter between them. In the present embodiment, the outer leg portions 12 and 13 have a pillar shape by joining the block-shaped outer leg cores 12a to 12c and 13a to 13c with an adhesive or the like. The outer legs 12 and 13 have a substantially right-angled triangular cross section. Specifically, the hypotenuse of a right triangle is a portion of the outer legs 12 and 13 facing the middle leg 11 or the coil 40. The portion of the outer leg portions 12 and 13 facing the middle leg portion 11 or the coil 40 has a shape along the outer circumference of the coil 40. In particular, the edges 16 of the outer legs 12 and 13 facing the coil 40 have a rounded shape (see FIG. 3), and the coil 40 has a rounded shape as compared with the case where the outer legs 12 and 13 have corners without being rounded. The distance from the outer circumference is increased.

ヨーク部１４、１５は、ここでは、逆さＶ字形状のヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａで構成されている。ヨーク部１４、１５は、対向配置され、中脚部１１及び外脚部１２、１３の端部を繋ぐ。具体的には、ヨーク部１４には、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３の一端が接続され、ヨーク部１５には、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３の他端が接続されることで、コア１０が環状に構成される。中脚部１１の周囲に設けられたコイル４０に磁束が発生すると、当該磁束は、ヨーク部１４を通って外脚部１２、１３、ヨーク部１５を介して中脚部１１に戻り、２つの閉じた磁気回路が形成される。 Here, the yoke portions 14 and 15 are composed of inverted V-shaped yoke cores 14a and 15a. The yoke portions 14 and 15 are arranged so as to face each other, and connect the ends of the middle leg portion 11 and the outer leg portions 12 and 13. Specifically, one ends of the middle leg 11 and the outer legs 12 and 13 are connected to the yoke portion 14, and the other ends of the middle leg 11 and the outer legs 12 and 13 are connected to the yoke portion 15. By doing so, the core 10 is formed in a ring shape. When a magnetic flux is generated in the coil 40 provided around the middle leg portion 11, the magnetic flux returns to the middle leg portion 11 via the outer leg portions 12, 13 and the yoke portion 15 through the yoke portion 14, and the two A closed magnetic circuit is formed.

ヨーク部１４、１５の設置対象物側の縁には、切り欠き部１７が設けられている。この切り欠き部１７は、概略三角形状であり、コイル４０を露出させる。切り欠き部１７は、概略台形形状としても良い。すなわち、台形の平行な辺のうち、短い上辺部分が円弧であり、中脚部１１の下部と一致する。また、切り欠き部１７の箇所は、コイル４０で発生した磁束の流れが少なく、リアクトル１の特性に影響の小さい箇所である。 A notch 17 is provided on the edge of the yoke portions 14 and 15 on the side to be installed. The notch 17 has a substantially triangular shape and exposes the coil 40. The cutout portion 17 may have a substantially trapezoidal shape. That is, among the parallel sides of the trapezoid, the short upper side portion is an arc, which coincides with the lower portion of the middle leg portion 11. Further, the notched portion 17 is a portion where the flow of the magnetic flux generated by the coil 40 is small and the characteristic of the reactor 1 is not affected.

中脚コア１１ａ〜１１ｃ、外脚コア１２ａ〜１２ｃ、１３ａ〜１３ｃ、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａは、磁性体であれば良い。例えば、圧粉磁心、フェライトコア、積層鋼板を用いることができる。ここでは、これらのコアは、圧粉磁心である。 The middle leg cores 11a to 11c, the outer leg cores 12a to 12c, 13a to 13c, and the yoke cores 14a and 15a may be magnetic materials.

The outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 have a tubular shape here, and the portion facing the coil 40 has a shape along the outer circumference of the coil 40. The edge of the outer leg covering portion 22 facing the coil 40 has a rounded shape, and the distance from the outer circumference of the coil 40 is longer than in the case where the outer leg covering portion 22 is not rounded and has a corner. .. The outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 are arranged in parallel with the middle leg covering portion 21 with the middle leg covering portion 21 in the center, and are arranged so as to be closer to the installation object than the middle leg covering portion 21. ..

ヨーク被覆部２４、２５は、ヨーク部１４、１５を被覆する。但し、脚部１１〜１３と接続される面とは反対側の面である背面を露出させる開口が設けられている。ヨーク被覆部２４、２５には、設置対象物側の縁に切り欠き部２４５が設けられている。この切り欠き部２４５は、ヨーク部１４、１５に設けられた切り欠き部１７に倣った形状であり、コイル４０を露出させる。 The yoke covering portions 24 and 25 cover the yoke portions 14 and 15. However, an opening is provided to expose the back surface, which is the surface opposite to the surface connected to the legs 11 to 13. The yoke covering portions 24 and 25 are provided with cutout portions 245 at the edges on the side of the object to be installed. The notch portion 245 has a shape that follows the notch portions 17 provided in the yoke portions 14 and 15, and exposes the coil 40.

ヨーク被覆部２４には、中脚被覆部２１、外脚被覆部２２、２３の一端が接続され、ヨーク被覆部２５には、中脚被覆部２１、外脚被覆部２２、２３の他端が接続されている。このヨーク被覆部２４、２５は、ヨーク部１４、１５を構成するヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａを樹脂モールド成形してなる樹脂成形部である。 One ends of the middle leg covering portion 21 and the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 are connected to the yoke covering portion 24, and the other ends of the middle leg covering portion 21 and the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 are connected to the yoke covering portion 25. It is connected. The yoke covering portions 24 and 25 are resin molding portions formed by resin molding the yoke cores 14a and 15a constituting the yoke portions 14 and 15.

本実施形態では、樹脂部材２０は、二分割されて構成されており、樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂを有する。樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂは、略Ｅ字形状を有し、別々に成形しておき、互いの端部を向かい合わせることで概略θ形状の樹脂部材２０が構成される。樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂは、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５から３本の筒部Ｔ１〜Ｔ３が並列に設けられてなる。樹脂体２０ａの中央の筒部Ｔ１と樹脂体２０ｂの中央の筒部Ｔ１とが向かい合うことで、中脚被覆部２１が構成される。樹脂体２０ａの両側の筒部Ｔ２、Ｔ３と樹脂体２０ｂの両側の筒部Ｔ２、Ｔ３とが向かい合うことで、外脚被覆部２２、２３が構成される。このように、樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂを別々に成形するのは、互いの端部を向かい合わせる前に、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３を構成する各コア部材を各筒部Ｔ１〜Ｔ３に収容するため、及び、コイル４０を中央の筒部Ｔ１に嵌め込んで樹脂部材２０にコイル４０を装着するためである。 In the present embodiment, the resin member 20 is divided into two parts and has resin bodies 20a and 20b. The resin bodies 20a and 20b have a substantially E-shape, are molded separately, and their ends face each other to form a resin member 20 having a substantially θ shape. The resin bodies 20a and 20b are provided with three tubular portions T1 to T3 in parallel from the yoke covering portions 24 and 25. The middle leg covering portion 21 is formed by facing the central tubular portion T1 of the resin body 20a and the central tubular portion T1 of the resin body 20b. The outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 are formed by facing the tubular portions T2 and T3 on both sides of the resin body 20a and the tubular portions T2 and T3 on both sides of the resin body 20b. In this way, the resin bodies 20a and 20b are separately molded by forming the core members constituting the middle leg 11 and the outer legs 12 and 13 into the cylinders T1 to T1 before facing each other. This is to accommodate the coil 40 in the T3 and to fit the coil 40 into the central tubular portion T1 to mount the coil 40 on the resin member 20.

本実施形態では、後述するように、コイル４０は、２つのコイル４０ａ、４０ｂからなり、コイル４０ａ、４０ｂを絶縁するため、樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂの間には、板状の仕切り部２６が設けられている。この仕切り部２６の中央部分には、貫通孔２６ａが設けられており、この貫通孔２６ａに樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂの中央の筒部Ｔ１の先端が嵌合する。仕切り部２６はコイル４０ａ、４０ｂの端部を覆う程度の大きさであり、外脚被覆部２２、２３の間に位置している。 In the present embodiment, as will be described later, the coil 40 is composed of two coils 40a and 40b, and in order to insulate the coils 40a and 40b, a plate-shaped partition portion 26 is provided between the resin bodies 20a and 20b. Has been done. A through hole 26a is provided in the central portion of the partition portion 26, and the tip of the central tubular portion T1 of the resin bodies 20a and 20b is fitted into the through hole 26a.

樹脂部材２０は、リアクトル１を設置対象物に固定するための固定部２７、リアクトル１が設置対象物に接触する接触部２８を更に有する。この固定部２７は、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５から外方に張り出した板状体であり、外縁の一部を切り欠いてなる切り欠き２７ａが設けられている。リアクトル１は、この切り欠き２７ａに、例えば切り欠き２７ａより大きな頭部を有するボルトを差し込んで締結により設置対象物に固定される。この固定部２７は、ヨーク被覆部２４に２箇所、ヨーク被覆部２５に２箇所の合計４箇所に設けられている。 The resin member 20 further has a fixing portion 27 for fixing the reactor 1 to the installation object, and a contact portion 28 in which the reactor 1 comes into contact with the installation object. The fixing portion 27 is a plate-like body protruding outward from the yoke covering portions 24 and 25, and is provided with a notch 27a formed by notching a part of the outer edge. The reactor 1 is fixed to the installation object by inserting, for example, a bolt having a head larger than the notch 27a into the notch 27a and fastening the reactor 1. The fixing portions 27 are provided at two locations on the yoke covering portion 24 and two locations on the yoke covering portion 25, for a total of four locations.

図３及び図４に示すように、接触部２８は、リアクトル１が設置対象物に接触する部分である。接触部２８としては、固定部２７の底面、外脚被覆部２２、２３の底面、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５の底面が挙げられる。本実施形態では、これらの全ての底面が設置対象物に接触するが、少なくとも、外脚被覆部２２、２３の底面、又は、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５の底面が設置対象物に接触していれば良い。リアクトル１を安定的に設置できるからである。より安定的に設置するためには、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５の底面が設置対象物に接触することが好ましい。 As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the contact portion 28 is a portion where the reactor 1 comes into contact with the installation object. Examples of the contact portion 28 include the bottom surface of the fixing portion 27, the bottom surfaces of the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23, and the bottom surfaces of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25. In the present embodiment, all of these bottom surfaces are in contact with the installation object, but at least the bottom surfaces of the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 or the bottom surfaces of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25 are in contact with the installation object. Just do it. This is because the reactor 1 can be installed stably. For more stable installation, it is preferable that the bottom surfaces of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25 come into contact with the installation object.

樹脂部材２０は、端子台２９を有する。端子台２９は、端子３０を設けるための部分であり、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５の上部にそれぞれ２箇所設けられている。すなわち、ヨーク部１４、１５が逆さＶ字形状であるため、当該Ｖ字を形成する斜面の上部はデッドスペースになっており、当該デッドスペースに端子台２９が設けられている。各端子台２９には、端子３０が設けられている。すなわち、端子３０は、リアクトル１の底面となる、固定部２７の底面、外脚被覆部２２、２３の底面、ヨーク被覆部２４、２５の底面よりも、設置対象物から離れた上方に設けられている。 The resin member 20 has a terminal block 29. The terminal block 29 is a portion for providing the terminal 30, and is provided at two locations on the upper portions of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25, respectively. That is, since the yoke portions 14 and 15 have an inverted V-shape, the upper portion of the slope forming the V-shape is a dead space, and the terminal block 29 is provided in the dead space. Each terminal block 29 is provided with a terminal 30. That is, the terminal 30 is provided above the bottom surface of the fixing portion 27, the bottom surfaces of the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23, and the bottom surfaces of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25, which are the bottom surfaces of the reactor 1, and away from the installation object. ing.

端子３０は、コイル４０ａ、４０ｂの端部と電気的に接続されており、ネジ締結等により外部機器の配線と電気的に接続される。外部機器から電力が供給されるとコイル４０ａ、４０ｂに電力が流れ、コイル４０ａ、４０ｂに磁束が発生する。 The terminal 30 is electrically connected to the ends of the coils 40a and 40b, and is electrically connected to the wiring of an external device by screwing or the like. When electric power is supplied from an external device, electric power flows through the coils 40a and 40b, and magnetic flux is generated in the coils 40a and 40b.

コイル４０は、１本の導線が巻回されてなるコイル４０ａ、４０ｂを有する。コイル４０ａ、４０ｂは、ここでは、平角線が円筒状に巻回されたエッジワイズコイルである。コイル４０ａ、４０ｂは、巻軸を共通にして中脚被覆部２１を介して中脚部１１に装着されている。 The coil 40 has coils 40a and 40b in which one conducting wire is wound. The coils 40a and 40b are edgewise coils in which a flat wire is wound in a cylindrical shape. The coils 40a and 40b are mounted on the middle leg portion 11 via the middle leg covering portion 21 with a common winding shaft.

コイル４０は、その少なくとも一部が外脚被覆部２２、２３の間に入り込んで配置されている。本実施形態では、図３に示すように、コイル４０は、その高さの半分程度が外脚被覆部２２、２３の間又は外脚部１２、１３の間に入り込んでいる。 At least a part of the coil 40 is arranged so as to be inserted between the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 3, about half of the height of the coil 40 is inserted between the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 or between the outer leg portions 12 and 13.

図３に示すように、コイル４０は、設置対象物に接触する。本実施形態では、コイル４０の外周の最下部が設置対象物と接触し、接触部２８となる。本実施形態では、設置対象物本体の上部に絶縁シート６０が設けられ、絶縁シート６０上に放熱シート５０が設けられており、コイル４０の外周の最下部が放熱シート５０に接触し、コイル４０の熱が放熱シート５０及び絶縁シート６０を介して冷却装置の筐体などの設置対象物本体に放熱される。換言すれば、本実施形態の設置対象物とは、冷却装置の筐体などの設置対象物本体と、その上部に設けられた放熱シート５０及び絶縁シート６０とを含む。 As shown in FIG. 3, the coil 40 comes into contact with the object to be installed. In the present embodiment, the lowermost part of the outer circumference of the coil 40 comes into contact with the object to be installed and becomes the contact portion 28. In the present embodiment, the insulating sheet 60 is provided on the upper part of the main body of the object to be installed, the heat radiating sheet 50 is provided on the insulating sheet 60, the lowermost part of the outer circumference of the coil 40 comes into contact with the heat radiating sheet 50, and the coil 40 The heat is dissipated to the main body of the installation object such as the housing of the cooling device via the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60. In other words, the installation object of the present embodiment includes the main body of the installation object such as the housing of the cooling device, and the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60 provided above the main body of the installation object.

但し、放熱シート５０と絶縁シート６０は、リアクトル１が設置対象物本体に設置された際に、コイル４０と設置対象物本体との間に両者をつなぐように介在していれば良く、リアクトル１に設けるようにしても良い。すなわち、図４に示すように、樹脂部材２０には、各固定部２７から切り欠き部２４５に張り出した張り出し部２７ｂがそれぞれ設けられている。ヨーク被覆部２４の２つの張り出し部２７ｂと、ヨーク被覆部２５の２つの張り出し部２７ｂとの間で、コイル４０ａ、４０ｂに対する放熱シート５０を載せた絶縁シート６０を架橋するようにしても良い。絶縁シート６０の端を張り出し部２７ｂに載せることで架橋し、放熱シート５０及び絶縁シート６０をリアクトル１に設けることができる。 However, when the reactor 1 is installed on the main body of the object to be installed, the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60 may be interposed between the coil 40 and the main body of the object to be installed so as to connect the two. It may be provided in. That is, as shown in FIG. 4, the resin member 20 is provided with an overhanging portion 27b protruding from each fixing portion 27 to the notch portion 245. The insulating sheet 60 on which the heat radiating sheet 50 is placed on the coils 40a and 40b may be crosslinked between the two overhanging portions 27b of the yoke covering portion 24 and the two overhanging portions 27b of the yoke covering portion 25. By placing the end of the insulating sheet 60 on the overhanging portion 27b, the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60 can be provided on the reactor 1.

放熱シート５０は、コイル４０よりも熱伝導性が高いことが好ましい。絶縁シート６０は、コイル４０と設置対象物とを電気的に絶縁する。絶縁シート６０は、例えば絶縁紙である。なお、放熱シート５０が電気絶縁性を有するのであれば、絶縁シート６０は設けなくても良い。 The heat radiating sheet 50 preferably has higher thermal conductivity than the coil 40. The insulating sheet 60 electrically insulates the coil 40 from the object to be installed. The insulating sheet 60 is, for example, insulating paper. If the heat radiating sheet 50 has electrical insulation, the insulating sheet 60 may not be provided.

［１−３．作用・効果］
（１）本実施形態のリアクトル１は、設置対象物に設置されるリアクトルであって、コア１０と、コア１０の一部の周囲に装着されるコイル４０と、を備え、コア１０は、コイル４０が装着される柱状の中脚部１１と、中脚部１１を中央にして中脚部１１と並列に配置され、かつ、中脚部１１よりも設置対象物に近くなるように配置された二本の柱状の外脚部１２、１３と、を有し、コイル４０は、少なくとも一部が外脚部１２、１３の間に入り込んで配置され、コイル４０は、設置対象物と接触する接触部２８を有するようにした。 [1-3. Action / effect]
(1) The reactor 1 of the present embodiment is a reactor installed on an object to be installed, and includes a core 10 and a coil 40 mounted around a part of the core 10, and the core 10 is a coil. The columnar middle leg 11 on which the 40 is mounted and the middle leg 11 are arranged in parallel with the middle leg 11 with the middle leg 11 in the center, and are arranged so as to be closer to the installation object than the middle leg 11. It has two columnar outer legs 12 and 13, and the coil 40 is arranged so that at least a part thereof is inserted between the outer legs 12 and 13, and the coil 40 is in contact with an object to be installed. It was made to have a part 28.

これにより、低背化させ、かつ、放熱性を向上させることができる。すなわち、従来の二脚構造のリアクトルでは、コイル４０が装着されない外脚が、コイル４０が装着される中脚と設置対象物との間に介在することによりリアクトルが大型化していたが、本実施形態では、少なくとも二本の柱状の外脚部１２、１３を設けるとともに、中脚部１１よりも設置対象物に近くなるように配置した。その上で、コイル４０の一部が外脚部１２、１３の間に入り込むように配置したので、リアクトル１を低背化することができる。また、コイル４０が設置対象物と接触する接触部２８を有するので、発生したコイル４０の熱を効率的に設置対象物に逃がすことができ、放熱性を向上させることができる。また、脚部１１〜１３が同一平面上に平行に並んで配置される場合と比べて、外脚部１２、１３が中脚部１１よりも設置対象物に近くなるように配置しているので、コイル４０の設置対象物とは反対側の上面がコア１０から大きく露出することになるので、放熱性を向上させることができる。 As a result, the height can be reduced and the heat dissipation can be improved. That is, in the conventional two-legged reactor, the outer leg on which the coil 40 is not mounted is interposed between the middle leg on which the coil 40 is mounted and the object to be installed, so that the reactor is enlarged. In the form, at least two columnar outer leg portions 12 and 13 are provided, and the outer leg portions 12 and 13 are arranged so as to be closer to the installation target than the middle leg portion 11. On top of that, since a part of the coil 40 is arranged so as to enter between the outer legs 12 and 13, the reactor 1 can be lowered in height. Further, since the coil 40 has a contact portion 28 that comes into contact with the object to be installed, the generated heat of the coil 40 can be efficiently dissipated to the object to be installed, and heat dissipation can be improved. Further, as compared with the case where the legs 11 to 13 are arranged side by side in parallel on the same plane, the outer legs 12 and 13 are arranged so as to be closer to the installation object than the middle legs 11. Since the upper surface of the coil 40 opposite to the object to be installed is largely exposed from the core 10, heat dissipation can be improved.

（２）リアクトル１は、コア１０を被覆する樹脂部材２０を備え、コア１０は、対向配置され、中脚部１１及び外脚部１２、１３の端部を繋ぐ一対のヨーク部１４、１５を有し、コイル４０は、樹脂部材２０を介してコア１０の一部に装着され、樹脂部材２０は、外脚部１２、１３を被覆する外脚被覆部２２、２３と、ヨーク部１４、１５を被覆するヨーク被覆部２４、２５と、を有し、外脚被覆部２２、２３及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５の少なくとも一方は、設置対象物と接触する接触部２８を有するようにした。 (2) The reactor 1 includes a resin member 20 that covers the core 10, and the core 10 is arranged so as to face each other, and a pair of yoke portions 14 and 15 that connect the ends of the middle leg portions 11 and the outer leg portions 12 and 13 are provided. The coil 40 is attached to a part of the core 10 via the resin member 20, and the resin member 20 includes the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 and the yoke portions 14 and 15 that cover the outer leg portions 12 and 13. The outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 and at least one of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25 have contact portions 28 that come into contact with the installation object.

これにより、コイル４０とコア１０との絶縁を確保できるとともに、設置対象物との絶縁を確保することができる。また、コイル４０の接触部２８の他、外脚被覆部２２、２３及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５の少なくとも一方が設置対象物と接触するので、リアクトル１を安定的に設置することができる。 As a result, the insulation between the coil 40 and the core 10 can be ensured, and the insulation between the coil 40 and the core 10 can be ensured. Further, in addition to the contact portion 28 of the coil 40, at least one of the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 and the yoke covering portions 24 and 25 comes into contact with the object to be installed, so that the reactor 1 can be stably installed.

（３）ヨーク部１４、１５及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５には、コイル４０を露出させる切り欠き部１７、２４５を設けるようにした。これにより、コイル４０の熱を逃がすことができるので、放熱性を向上させることができる。また、切り欠き部１７を三角形状とするよりも略台形形状とすることにより、放熱性をさらに向上させることができる。また、切り欠き部１７は、コイル４０の通電により発生する磁束が通りにくい箇所に設けたので、磁気特性への影響が小さくて済む。すなわち、切り欠き部１７を設けない場合と比べても、インダクタンスＬの低減率を１％以内に抑えることができる。切り欠き部１７を設けるコイル４０の通電により発生する磁束が通りにくい箇所とは、ヨーク部１４、１５の中脚部１１と接合される箇所の下方であって、外脚部１２、１３と接合される箇所の間である。切り欠き部１７の形状を三角形状とする場合は、三角形の一頂点を中脚部１１の底部に設け、三角形の底辺を外脚部１２、１３間に設ける。切り欠き部１７の形状を略台形形状とする場合は、平行な短辺を中脚部１１の底部に沿わせ、長辺を外脚部１２、１３の間に設ける。なお、インダクタンスの低減率は、（切り欠き部１７有りのＬ値／切り欠き部１７無しのＬ値）×１００により算出した。 (3) The yoke portions 14, 15 and the yoke covering portions 24, 25 are provided with cutout portions 17, 245 that expose the coil 40. As a result, the heat of the coil 40 can be dissipated, so that the heat dissipation can be improved. Further, the heat dissipation can be further improved by making the notch portion 17 a substantially trapezoidal shape rather than a triangular shape. Further, since the cutout portion 17 is provided at a position where the magnetic flux generated by the energization of the coil 40 is difficult to pass through, the influence on the magnetic characteristics can be small. That is, the reduction rate of the inductance L can be suppressed to within 1% as compared with the case where the notch portion 17 is not provided. The portion where the magnetic flux generated by the energization of the coil 40 provided with the notch portion 17 is difficult to pass is below the portion to be joined to the middle leg portions 11 of the yoke portions 14 and 15, and is joined to the outer leg portions 12 and 13. It is between the places where it is done. When the shape of the cutout portion 17 is triangular, one apex of the triangle is provided at the bottom of the middle leg portion 11, and the base of the triangle is provided between the outer legs 12 and 13. When the shape of the cutout portion 17 is substantially trapezoidal, parallel short sides are provided along the bottom of the middle leg portion 11 and long sides are provided between the outer leg portions 12 and 13. The reduction rate of the inductance was calculated by (L value with the notch 17 / L value without the notch 17) × 100.

（４）コイル４０の接触部２８は、設置対象物の放熱シート５０と接触するようにした。 (4) The contact portion 28 of the coil 40 is brought into contact with the heat radiating sheet 50 of the installation object.

これにより、設置対象物と接触部２８との間に熱伝導率の悪い空気が介在することが抑制されるので、放熱性をより向上させることができる。 As a result, it is possible to prevent air having a poor thermal conductivity from interposing between the object to be installed and the contact portion 28, so that the heat dissipation property can be further improved.

（５）外脚部１２、１３及び外脚被覆部２２、２３は、コイル４０と対向する部分が、コイル４０の外周に沿った形状を有するようにした。これにより、コイル４０をより下方に配置することができるので、リアクトル１をより低背化することができる。 (5) The outer leg portions 12 and 13 and the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 have a portion facing the coil 40 having a shape along the outer circumference of the coil 40. As a result, the coil 40 can be arranged further downward, so that the reactor 1 can be made lower in height.

（６）外脚部１２、１３及び外脚被覆部２２、２３は、コイル４０と対向する部分の縁１６を、丸みを帯びた形状とした。これにより、当該縁１６を丸みを持たせずに角にした場合と比べて、外脚被覆部２２、２３とコイル４０との距離を長くすることができるので、外脚被覆部２２、２３とコイル４０との隙間が大きくなり、放熱性をより向上させることができる。 (6) The outer leg portions 12 and 13 and the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 have a rounded edge 16 at a portion facing the coil 40. As a result, the distance between the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 and the coil 40 can be increased as compared with the case where the edge 16 is made into a corner without having a roundness. The gap with the coil 40 becomes large, and the heat dissipation can be further improved.

［２．第１実施形態の変形例］
第１実施形態の変形例を、図５を用いて説明する。本変形例は、第１実施形態の基本構成と同じである。以下では、第１実施形態と異なる点のみを説明し、第１実施形態と同じ部分については同じ符号を付して詳細な説明は省略する。 [2. Modification example of the first embodiment]
A modified example of the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. This modification is the same as the basic configuration of the first embodiment. In the following, only the points different from those of the first embodiment will be described, and the same parts as those of the first embodiment are designated by the same reference numerals and detailed description thereof will be omitted.

図５は、第１実施形態の変形例に係るリアクトルの斜視図である。図６は、コア１０の分解斜視図である。図７は、本変形例に係るリアクトルの断面図であり、図５のＢ−Ｂ断面図である。 FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the reactor according to the modified example of the first embodiment. FIG. 6 is an exploded perspective view of the core 10. FIG. 7 is a cross-sectional view of the reactor according to the present modification, and is a cross-sectional view taken along the line BB of FIG.

図５に示すように、本変形例のリアクトル１は、第１実施形態と比べて扁平である。具体的には、図６に示すように、コア１０は、中間脚コア１８と、中間脚コア１８を挟む一対のヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａとからなる。中間脚コア１８は、中脚部１１と、その両側の外脚部１２、１３と、各脚部１１〜１３の端部を繋ぐ一対の連結部１８ａとを有し、概略θ形状を成す。 As shown in FIG. 5, the reactor 1 of this modified example is flat as compared with the first embodiment. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the core 10 includes an intermediate leg core 18 and a pair of yoke cores 14a and 15a that sandwich the intermediate leg core 18. The intermediate leg core 18 has a middle leg portion 11, outer leg portions 12 and 13 on both sides thereof, and a pair of connecting portions 18a connecting the ends of the leg portions 11 to 13, and has a substantially θ shape.

図７に示すように、本変形例の中脚部１１は、その断面がオーバル形状である。オーバル形状とは、円形を扁平に変形させた形状であり、一方向に長く、扁平な形状である。オーバル形状としては、例えば、楕円形状、二本の平行な直線を一対の半円で繋いだ長穴形状、四隅の角が丸まった角丸長方形状が挙げられる。ここでは、中脚部１１は、二本の平行な直線を一対の半円で繋いだ長穴形状であり、その長手方向（Ｘ軸方向）が二本の外脚部１２、１３の並びの方向と平行になるように配置されている。本変形例の外脚部１２、１３は、その断面が概略台形形状である。 As shown in FIG. 7, the cross section of the middle leg portion 11 of this modified example has an oval shape. The oval shape is a shape obtained by deforming a circular shape into a flat shape, which is long and flat in one direction. Examples of the oval shape include an elliptical shape, an elongated hole shape in which two parallel straight lines are connected by a pair of semicircles, and a rounded rectangular shape with rounded corners. Here, the middle leg portion 11 has an elongated hole shape in which two parallel straight lines are connected by a pair of semicircles, and the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) thereof is an arrangement of the two outer leg portions 12, 13. It is arranged so as to be parallel to the direction. The outer legs 12 and 13 of this modified example have a substantially trapezoidal cross section.

連結部１８ａは、各脚部１１〜１３の一端を繋ぐとともに、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａと接合されている。連結部１８ａには、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａの切り欠き部１７と同じ形状の切り欠き部１８１が設けられており、コイル４０ａ、４０ｂの端面を露出させる。 The connecting portion 18a connects one ends of the leg portions 11 to 13 and is joined to the yoke cores 14a and 15a. The connecting portion 18a is provided with a notch portion 181 having the same shape as the notch portions 17 of the yoke cores 14a and 15a, and exposes the end faces of the coils 40a and 40b.

中間脚コア１８は、磁性粉末と樹脂とを含む複合磁性材料により構成された樹脂コアである。磁性粉末としては、軟磁性粉末を使用でき、例えば、Ｆｅ粉末、Ｆｅ−Ｓｉ合金粉末、Ｆｅ−Ａｌ合金粉末、Ｆｅ−Ｓｉ−Ａｌ合金粉末（センダスト）、非晶質軟磁性合金粉末（アモルファス軟磁性合金粉末）又はこれら２種以上の混合粉を用いることができる。樹脂は、磁性粉末を保持する。樹脂としては、熱硬化性樹脂、紫外線硬化性樹脂、又は熱可塑性樹脂を用いることができる。熱硬化性樹脂としては、フェノール樹脂、エポキシ樹脂、不飽和ポリエステル樹脂、ポリウレタン、ジアリルフタレート樹脂、シリコーン樹脂などが使用できる。紫外線硬化性樹脂としては、ウレタンアクリレート系、エポキシアクリレート系、アクリレート系、エポキシ系の樹脂を使用できる。熱可塑性樹脂としては、ポリイミドやフッ素樹脂などの耐熱性に優れた樹脂を使用することが好ましい。硬化剤を添加することにより硬化するエポキシ樹脂は、硬化剤の添加量などによってその粘度を調整できることから、本発明に適している。熱可塑性のアクリル樹脂やシリコーン樹脂も使用可能である。 The intermediate leg core 18 is a resin core made of a composite magnetic material containing magnetic powder and a resin. As the magnetic powder, soft magnetic powder can be used, for example, Fe powder, Fe-Si alloy powder, Fe-Al alloy powder, Fe-Si-Al alloy powder (Sendust), amorphous soft magnetic alloy powder (amorphous soft). Magnetic alloy powder) or a mixed powder of two or more of these can be used. The resin retains the magnetic powder. As the resin, a thermosetting resin, an ultraviolet curable resin, or a thermoplastic resin can be used. As the thermosetting resin, phenol resin, epoxy resin, unsaturated polyester resin, polyurethane, diallyl phthalate resin, silicone resin and the like can be used. As the ultraviolet curable resin, urethane acrylate-based, epoxy acrylate-based, acrylate-based, and epoxy-based resins can be used. As the thermoplastic resin, it is preferable to use a resin having excellent heat resistance such as polyimide or fluororesin. The epoxy resin that is cured by adding a curing agent is suitable for the present invention because its viscosity can be adjusted by the amount of the curing agent added or the like. Thermoplastic acrylic resin and silicone resin can also be used.

中間脚コア１８は、樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂの３つの筒部Ｔ１〜Ｔ３に、磁性粉末と樹脂とが混合された複合磁性材料が充填され、樹脂が固化されることで形成される。そのため、各脚部１１〜１３及び連結部１８ａは樹脂コアで構成される。なお、中間脚コア１８の成形過程で、圧粉磁心の作製のように、数ｔｏｎ〜数十ｔｏｎもの圧力でプレスすることはなく、加圧しないか、プレスにより加圧しても数ｋｇ〜数十ｋｇ程度である。 The intermediate leg core 18 is formed by filling the three tubular portions T1 to T3 of the resin bodies 20a and 20b with a composite magnetic material in which a magnetic powder and a resin are mixed and solidifying the resin. Therefore, each of the leg portions 11 to 13 and the connecting portion 18a is composed of a resin core. In the molding process of the intermediate leg core 18, unlike the production of a dust core, it is not pressed at a pressure of several tons to several tens of tons, and it is not pressed or even if it is pressed by a press, it is several kg to several kilograms. It is about 10 kg.

樹脂体２０ａ、２０ｂには、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａが埋設されており、中間脚コア１８を複合磁性材料により構成しているので、当該材料に含まれる樹脂により、中間脚コア１８（連結部１８ａ）とヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａが接合される。そのため、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａと接合するための接着剤が不要である。 Since the yoke cores 14a and 15a are embedded in the resin bodies 20a and 20b and the intermediate leg core 18 is made of a composite magnetic material, the intermediate leg core 18 (connecting portion 18a) is made of the resin contained in the material. And the yoke cores 14a and 15a are joined. Therefore, an adhesive for joining the yoke cores 14a and 15a is not required.

ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａは、中間脚コア１８よりも高い透磁率を有する磁性体で構成することが好ましい。但し、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａも中間脚コア１８と同様に複合磁性材料により構成し、同じタイミングでヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａに含まれる樹脂及び中間脚コア１８に含まれる樹脂を固化することで、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａと中間脚コア１８との接合箇所を、継ぎ目なく一続きにすることができる。換言すれば、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａと中間脚コア１８との間のギャップをなくすことができるので、漏れ磁束がコイル４０を貫くことによる損失（鉄損）を低減できる。 The yoke cores 14a and 15a are preferably made of a magnetic material having a higher magnetic permeability than the intermediate leg core 18. However, the yoke cores 14a and 15a are also made of a composite magnetic material like the intermediate leg core 18, and the resin contained in the yoke cores 14a and 15a and the resin contained in the intermediate leg core 18 are solidified at the same timing to solidify the yoke core 14a and 15a. The joints between the 15a and the intermediate leg core 18 can be seamlessly continuous. In other words, since the gap between the yoke cores 14a and 15a and the intermediate leg core 18 can be eliminated, the loss (iron loss) due to the leakage flux penetrating the coil 40 can be reduced.

本変形例では、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａは、中間脚コア１８よりも高い透磁率を有する圧粉磁心で構成されている。図８に示すように、ヨークコア１４ａ、１５ａと中間脚コア１８の接合箇所は、連結部１８ａが設けられているので、連結部１８ａの厚みＴの分、コイル４０の端面から遠ざかっているため、仮に当該接合箇所から漏れ磁束が出たとしても、当該漏れ磁束がコイル４０を貫くことによる損失（鉄損）を抑制できる。 In this modification, the yoke cores 14a and 15a are composed of dust cores having a higher magnetic permeability than the intermediate leg core 18. As shown in FIG. 8, since the connecting portion 18a is provided at the joint portion between the yoke cores 14a and 15a and the intermediate leg core 18, the connecting portion 18a is separated from the end surface of the coil 40 by the thickness T of the connecting portion 18a. Even if a leakage flux is generated from the joint, the loss (iron loss) due to the leakage flux penetrating the coil 40 can be suppressed.

中脚被覆部２１及びコイル４０は、中脚部１１に倣ってオーバル形状である。ここでは、中脚被覆部２１及びコイル４０は、二本の平行な直線を一対の半円で繋いだ長穴形状であり、その長手方向（Ｘ軸方向）が二本の外脚部１２、１３の並びの方向（Ｙ軸方向）と並行になるように配置されている。 The middle leg covering portion 21 and the coil 40 have an oval shape following the middle leg portion 11. Here, the middle leg covering portion 21 and the coil 40 have an elongated hole shape in which two parallel straight lines are connected by a pair of semicircles, and the longitudinal direction (X-axis direction) thereof is the two outer leg portions 12. It is arranged so as to be parallel to the direction of arrangement of 13 (Y-axis direction).

以上のように、本変形例では、中脚部１１は、その断面がオーバル形状であり、その長手方向が２本の外脚部１２、１３の並びの方向と平行になるように配置するようにした。これにより、リアクトル１をより低背化することができるとともに、接触部２８の設置対象物との接触面積を大きくすることができるので放熱性をより向上させることができる。 As described above, in the present modification, the middle leg portion 11 is arranged so that its cross section has an oval shape and its longitudinal direction is parallel to the direction in which the two outer leg portions 12 and 13 are arranged. I made it. As a result, the reactor 1 can be made lower in height, and the contact area of the contact portion 28 with the installation target can be increased, so that the heat dissipation can be further improved.

（１）上記実施形態では、コイル４０と設置対象物本体との間に、放熱シート５０及び絶縁シート６０が介在することにより、コイル４０の接触部２８が、固定部２７の底面、外脚被覆部２２、２３の底面、及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５の底面（固定部２７、外脚被覆部２２、２３、及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５の各接触部２８）の位置する平面よりも高い位置に配置されていたが、コイル４０の接触部２８は、外脚被覆部２２、２３の接触部２８又はヨーク被覆部２４、２５の接触部２８と同一平面上に設けるようにしても良い。これにより、コイル４０がより外脚部１２、１３又は外脚被覆部２２、２３間に入り込むので、リアクトル１の高さは、コイル４０の外径と一致し、リアクトル１をより低背化することができる。この場合は、放熱シート５０及び絶縁シート６０を設けず、コイル４０と設置対象物とが直接接触する。また、コイル４０の接触部２８は、固定部２７、外脚被覆部２２、２３、及びヨーク被覆部２４、２５の各接触部２８と同一平面上に設けるようにしても良い。 (1) In the above embodiment, the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60 are interposed between the coil 40 and the main body of the object to be installed, so that the contact portion 28 of the coil 40 is covered with the bottom surface of the fixing portion 27 and the outer legs. Positions higher than the plane on which the bottom surfaces of the portions 22 and 23 and the bottom surfaces of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25 (fixing portions 27, outer leg covering portions 22 and 23, and contact portions 28 of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25) are located. However, the contact portion 28 of the coil 40 may be provided on the same plane as the contact portion 28 of the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23 or the contact portion 28 of the yoke covering portions 24 and 25. As a result, the coil 40 is further inserted between the outer leg portions 12, 13 or the outer leg covering portions 22, 23, so that the height of the reactor 1 matches the outer diameter of the coil 40, and the height of the reactor 1 is further lowered. be able to. In this case, the heat radiating sheet 50 and the insulating sheet 60 are not provided, and the coil 40 and the installation object come into direct contact with each other. Further, the contact portion 28 of the coil 40 may be provided on the same plane as the contact portions 28 of the fixing portion 27, the outer leg covering portions 22 and 23, and the yoke covering portions 24 and 25.

（２）上記実施形態では、コア１０を圧粉磁心で構成したが、ヨーク部１４、１５を圧粉磁心で構成し、中脚部１１、外脚部１２、１３は、磁性粉末と樹脂とを含む複合磁性材料で構成された樹脂コアで構成しても良い。 (2) In the above embodiment, the core 10 is composed of a dust core, but the yoke portions 14 and 15 are composed of a dust core, and the middle leg 11 and the outer legs 12 and 13 are made of magnetic powder and resin. It may be composed of a resin core composed of a composite magnetic material containing.

（３）上記実施形態では、外脚部１２、１３を二本設けたが、３本以上設けても良い。この場合、設置対象物に近い二本の外脚部１２、１３以外のコイル４０が巻回されない外脚部は、設置対象物から離れた位置に設けられる。但し、当該外脚部は、コイル４０の上部より低い位置に配置されることが好ましい。例えば、外脚部１２、１３を４本設ける場合は、図３に示すように、２本は設置対象物に近くなるように配置し、残りの２本は、端子台２９を設けた位置に配置する。この場合、端子台２９は設置しないか、コイル４０の上部より低い位置に配置を変更する。 (3) In the above embodiment, two outer legs 12 and 13 are provided, but three or more outer legs may be provided. In this case, the outer leg portion in which the coil 40 other than the two outer leg portions 12 and 13 close to the installation target is not wound is provided at a position away from the installation target. However, it is preferable that the outer leg portion is arranged at a position lower than the upper portion of the coil 40. For example, when four outer legs 12 and 13 are provided, as shown in FIG. 3, two are arranged so as to be close to the object to be installed, and the remaining two are arranged at the positions where the terminal block 29 is provided. Deploy. In this case, the terminal block 29 is not installed, or the arrangement is changed to a position lower than the upper part of the coil 40.

（４）上記実施形態では、コイル４０を構成する２つのコイル４０ａ、４０ｂを設けたが、コイルの数は１つでも良い。この場合、仕切り部２６は不要であり、端子台２９及び端子３０も２つあれば良い。 (4) In the above embodiment, the two coils 40a and 40b constituting the coil 40 are provided, but the number of coils may be one. In this case, the partition portion 26 is unnecessary, and only two terminal blocks 29 and 30 are required.

（５）上記実施形態では、樹脂部材２０を設けたが、必ずしもこれに限定されない。例えば、中脚部１１の周囲、外脚部１２、１３、ヨーク部１４、１５のコイル４０と対向する部分のみに、絶縁紙等の絶縁物を配置するようにしても良い。この場合、外脚部１２、１３及びヨーク部１４、１５の底面は露出しており、外脚部１２、１３の底面及びヨーク部１４、１５の底面の少なくとも一方は、設置対象物と接触する接触部２８となる。この接触部２８とコイル４０の接触部２８は、同一平面上に設けられていても良い。 (5) In the above embodiment, the resin member 20 is provided, but the present invention is not necessarily limited to this. For example, an insulating material such as insulating paper may be arranged only around the middle leg portion 11, the outer leg portions 12, 13 and the yoke portions 14 and 15 facing the coil 40. In this case, the bottom surfaces of the outer leg portions 12 and 13 and the yoke portions 14 and 15 are exposed, and at least one of the bottom surfaces of the outer leg portions 12 and 13 and the bottom surfaces of the yoke portions 14 and 15 comes into contact with the installation object. It becomes the contact portion 28. The contact portion 28 and the contact portion 28 of the coil 40 may be provided on the same plane.

（６）上記実施形態では、逆さＶ字形状を成すヨーク部１４、１５の斜面の上部には、端子台２９を設けるようにしたが、端子台２９を設けずに、逆さＶ字形状を成すヨーク部１４，１５の斜面の上部からリード線を引き出すようにしても良い。リード線は、コイル４０の端部と電気的に接続された導線であり、外部機器と接続される。或いは、リード線は、コイル４０の端部そのものであっても良い。このように、逆さＶ字形状を成すヨーク部の斜面の上部からリード線を引き出すことにより、逆さＶ字形状を成すヨーク部の斜面の上部のデッドスペースを活用してリード線を引き出すことになるので、リアクトルの低背化を図ることができる。 (6) In the above embodiment, the terminal block 29 is provided on the upper part of the slopes of the yoke portions 14 and 15 having an inverted V shape, but the terminal block 29 is not provided and the yoke portion 29 is formed in an inverted V shape. The lead wire may be pulled out from the upper part of the slopes of the yoke portions 14 and 15. The lead wire is a lead wire that is electrically connected to the end of the coil 40 and is connected to an external device. Alternatively, the lead wire may be the end portion of the coil 40 itself. In this way, by pulling out the lead wire from the upper part of the slope of the yoke portion forming the inverted V shape, the lead wire is pulled out by utilizing the dead space above the slope of the yoke portion forming the inverted V shape. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the height of the reactor.
