Abstract
In an embodiment, a coil component 10 has a drum core 20 housed in a through hole 32 of a ring core 30, and two types of securing parts are provided in a gap G between an outer circumference of one flange part 24 of the drum core 20 and an inner circumference of the through hole 32. Terminal electrodes 50A, 50B connecting to ends 46A, 46B pulled out from a winding wire 40 wound around the drum core 20 are assembled to the ring core 30. Second securing parts 60A, 60B are arranged to opposite to each other with respect to a center C of the flange part 24, and first securing parts 62A, 62B are provided to cover an outer side of the second securing parts 60A, 60B. A hardness of the second securing part is higher than that of the first securing part.
Claims10
A coil component, comprising:
- a drum core having a pair of flange parts at both ends of a winding shaft;
- a conductive wire wound around the winding shaft;
- a ring core having a through hole housing the drum core therein in a manner providing a gap between an outer surface of one of the flange parts and an inner surface of the ring core which faces the outer surface of the one of the flange parts as viewed in a radial direction, and;
- terminal electrodes electrically connected to the conductive wire;
- a first securing part provided at a part of the gap between the outer surface of the one flange part of the drum core and the inner surface of the ring core;
- and
- a second securing part provided at a part of a portion of the gap where the first securing part is not provided, and having a higher hardness than that of the first securing part,
- wherein the first securing part covers and directly contacts an upper side of the second securing part in the gap as viewed in an axial direction of the winding shaft where a direction from another of the flange parts toward the one of the flange parts is defined as an upward direction.
