## Abstract

A coil component includes a body having first and second side surfaces opposing each other in a first direction and third and fourth side surfaces opposing each other in a second direction. The body includes a magnetic material. A coil is disposed within the body, and a lead frame is connected to an end of the coil. The lead frame includes a side-surface portion positioned on the first and second side surfaces of the body and at least one extension portion extending outward from the side-surface portion in the second direction, protruding outward from the body. The extension portion may be formed by bending or cutting a portion of the lead frame, providing improved adhesion strength and vibration resistance when mounted on a substrate.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A coil component, comprising:
a body including first and second side surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth side surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and including a magnetic material;
a coil disposed in the body; and
a lead frame connected to an end of the coil,
wherein the lead frame includes a side-surface portion disposed on the first side surface and the second side surface of the body, and at least one extension portion disposed outside the side-surface portion with respect to the second direction and protruding outward from the body.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The coil component of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the extension portion is positioned farther from a first side surface and a second side surface of the body than the side-surface portion.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The coil component of claim 2, wherein, when a length of the extension portion protruding farther outward from the first and second side surfaces of the body than the side-surface portion is defined as a, and a length in the first direction of the body is defined as b, wherein a ratio of a/b is greater than 0 and satisfies 0.065 or lower.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

The coil component of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the extension portion is positioned at a level lower than a level of the first and second side surfaces of the body.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The coil component of claim 1,
wherein a plurality of the extension portions are formed, and
wherein the plurality of extension portions are spaced apart from each other in the second direction with the side-surface portion interposed therebetween.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The coil component of claim 5, wherein a distance at which the plurality of extension portions are spaced apart from each other in the second direction is equal to a length of the side-surface portion in the second direction.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The coil component of claim 1,
wherein the lead frame further includes a lower-surface portion disposed on a lower surface of the body and connected to the side-surface portion, and
wherein the lower-surface portion is integrally formed with the extension portion.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The coil component of claim 7,
wherein a length in the second direction of the lower-surface portion is greater than a length in the second direction of the side-surface portion.

### Claim 9 (depends on 7)

The coil component of claim 7,
wherein a bottom surface of the lower-surface portion includes a plurality of recesses having a slit shape extending in the second direction, and
wherein the plurality of recesses are spaced apart from each other in the first direction.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

The coil component of claim 1, wherein the extension portion includes a protrusion having at least a portion extending inward into the body in the second direction.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The coil component of claim 10, wherein a groove of which a partial region is removed to correspond to the protrusion is formed in the side-surface portion.

### Claim 12

A coil component, comprising:
a body including first and second side surfaces opposing each other in a first direction, third and fourth side surfaces opposing each other in a second direction, and including a magnetic material;
a coil disposed in the body; and
a lead frame connected to an end of the coil,
wherein the lead frame includes a lower-surface portion disposed on a lower surface of the body, and at least one extension portion connected to the lower-surface portion and protruding outwardly of the body, and
wherein a length of the lower-surface portion is greater than a length of the extension portion in the second direction.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The coil component of claim 12, wherein, when a length in the second direction of the lower-surface portion is defined as c, and a length in the second direction of the extension portion is defined as d, wherein a ratio defined as d/c is greater than 0 and satisfies 0.083 or lower.

### Claim 14 (depends on 12)

The coil component of claim 12, wherein at least a portion of the extension portion is positioned at a level lower than a level of the first and second side surfaces of the body.

### Claim 15 (depends on 12)

The coil component of claim 12,
wherein a plurality of the extension portions are formed, and
wherein the plurality of extension portions are disposed at opposite ends of the lower-surface portion along the second direction.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The coil component of claim 15, wherein a distance at which the plurality of extension portions are spaced apart from each other in the second direction is less than a length of the lower-surface portion in the second direction.

### Claim 17 (depends on 12)

The coil component of claim 12, wherein a cut surface defines a boundary between the extension portion and the side-surface portion.
