Abstract
A core main body includes an outer peripheral iron core, and at least three iron cores. Between the two iron cores adjacent to each other, a gap being magnetically couplable is formed. The outer peripheral iron core includes a first outer peripheral iron core block and a second outer peripheral iron core block that are formed by stacking a plurality of magnetic plates, and an intermediate plate disposed therebetween. The intermediate plate includes an outer peripheral iron core corresponding portion corresponding to the outer peripheral iron core, a plurality of protruding sections protruding from an outer peripheral surface of the outer peripheral iron core, and engaging sections provided on the plurality of protruding sections.
Claims7
A core main body comprising:
- an outer peripheral iron core;
- at least three iron cores disposed inside the outer peripheral iron core;
- and
- a coil mounted on each of the at least three iron cores, wherein
- a radial inner end portion of each of the at least three iron cores converges toward a center of the outer periphery iron core,
- a gap being magnetically couplable is formed between one iron core of the at least three iron cores and another iron core adjacent to the one iron core, and the radial inner end portions of the at least three iron cores are spaced apart from each other through the gap being magnetically couplable,
- the outer peripheral iron core is configured with at least a first outer peripheral iron core block formed by stacking a plurality of magnetic plates, a second outer peripheral iron core block formed by stacking a plurality of magnetic plates, and an intermediate plate disposed between the first outer peripheral iron core block and the second outer peripheral iron core block, and
- the intermediate plate includes an outer peripheral iron core corresponding portion corresponding to the outer peripheral iron core, a plurality of protruding sections protruding from an outer peripheral surface of the outer peripheral iron core, and engaging sections provided on the plurality of protruding sections, wherein
- a position of the engaging sections in an axial direction of the core main body is approximately equal to a position of a center of gravity of the core main body.
A method of manufacturing a reactor comprising steps of:
- stacking a plurality of magnetic plates and forming a plurality of first outer peripheral iron core portion blocks;
- stacking a plurality of magnetic plates and forming a plurality of second outer peripheral iron core portion blocks;
- preparing a plurality of intermediate plate portions corresponding to the respective plurality of first outer peripheral iron core portion blocks;
- disposing each of the plurality of intermediate plate portions on each of the plurality of first outer peripheral iron core portion blocks;
- disposing each of the plurality of first outer peripheral iron core portion blocks on each of the plurality of intermediate plate portions and forming a plurality of outer peripheral iron core portions including at least three iron cores, wherein a position of engaging sections of the plurality of intermediate plate portions in an axial direction of the reactor is approximately equal to a position of a center of gravity of the reactor;
- mounting a coil on each of the at least three iron cores;
- assembling the plurality of outer peripheral iron core portions together and forming a core main body;
- and
- attaching a pedestal to one end of the core main body and securing the core main body and the pedestal to each other.
