- the core 3 has a bottom surface placed on the metal-based printed wiring board 6.
- Each of the insulating members 5 includes a semi-donut portion interposed between the adjacent plate-like metal members 4, which is obtained by halving a donut-shaped plate, a cylindrical portion having a cylindrical shape, which surrounds the middle leg portion of the core 3, and an outer-diameter side portion interposed between an outer-diameter side of the plate-like metal members 4 and an inner wall of the core 3.

- The present invention relates to an electromagnetic induction apparatus to be incorporated into, for example, a power converter.
- In a power converter including a DC/DC converter and a charger to be mounted in an electric vehicle and a hybrid vehicle, electromagnetic induction apparatus such as a transformer, a reactor, and a choke coil are mounted as passive components for voltage step-up operation and voltage step-down operation, and are used as energy storing and emitting devices, DC current smoothening devices, or the like.
- For the electromagnetic induction apparatus described above, a structure that enables downsizing or effective radiation of heat generated during energization is extremely important.
- As a transformer excellent to achieve downsizing, there is known a transformer including primary windings and secondary windings in a laminate structure, in which the secondary windings are separately wound at least at two positions in an axial direction of a bobbin surrounding a core through intermediation of an insulating member, to thereby realize downsizing (see, for example, Patent Literature 1).
- Further, as a reactor excellent in heat radiating property, there is known a reactor including a reactor main body housed inside an aluminum case. The reactor main body is sealed with a filler resin having a thermal conductivity of from 0.7 [W/m/K] to 4.0 [W/m/K] so that heat generated from a coil can be efficiently radiated to the case and a cooler. Further, a bobbin-less structure is provided so that heat generated from a core can also be efficiently radiated (see, for example, Patent Literature 2).

JP 2009-94328 A - The transformer of Patent Literature 1 can increase the degree of coupling between the windings by winding the primary windings and the second windings in a laminated manner. The downsizing is enabled by winding the second windings separately at the two or more positions in the axial direction of the bobbin. However, the windings are wound in a multilayer structure. Therefore, for an inner winding in the vicinity of the core, there is a problem in that the heat radiating property degrades by an additional thermal resistance of an insulator that is present between the windings on an outer side of the inner winding.

Patent Literature 2 has a problem in that costs and size are inevitably increased when the reactor main body is housed inside the metal case that is filled with the heat radiating resin. - The present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, and has an object to provide an electromagnetic induction apparatus in small size at low costs, which enables efficient heat radiation from a coil body to reduce a thermal resistance.
- According to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an electromagnetic induction apparatus, including:
- a core forming a closed magnetic path;
- a printed wiring board configured to support the core, the printed wiring board including a plurality of wiring patterns; and
- a metal member provided around the core and having both end portions connected to the plurality of wiring patterns,
- in which a plurality of coil portions including the plurality of wiring patterns and the metal member are electrically connected to each other and arranged side by side to form a coil body.
- According to the electromagnetic induction apparatus of the one embodiment of the present invention, the coil portions, each including the wiring pattern on the printed wiring board and the metal member having the both end portions connected to the wiring pattern, are electrically connected to each other and arranged side by side to form the coil body. Therefore, for example, by mounting cooling means onto the printed wiring board, heat can be efficiently radiated from the coil body to enable reduction of the thermal resistance.
- Further, the metal members are connected to the wiring patterns of the printed wiring board so as to be separated away from each other, for each of the metal members. Therefore, a heat radiating property for each of the metal members is also high.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a reactor according to a first embodiment of the present invention, andFIG. 2 is a top view forillustrating wiring patterns 8 on a metal-based printedwiring board 6 illustrated inFIG. 1 . InFIG. 1 , the illustration of a plurality of electronic components mounted on the metal-based printedwiring board 6 is omitted. - The reactor, which is an electromagnetic induction apparatus, includes a
core 3 that is a shell-type PQ core including a first core portion 1 and asecond core portion 2, a plurality of plate-like metal members 4 each having a C-like shape and arranged so as to surround a middle leg portion of thecore 3, insulatingmembers 5 configured to insulate the plate-like metal members 4 from each other and the plate-like metal members 4 and thecore 3 from each other, and the metal-based printedwiring board 6 having an upper surface on which a plurality of thewiring patterns 8 are provided. - By placing and fixing the metal-based printed
wiring board 6 onto a cooler (not shown), which is cooling means, the reactor is fixed to the cooler. - The plate-
like metal members 4 are tough-pitch copper members having a prescribed electric resistance value. - The
wiring patterns 8 on the metal-based printedwiring board 6 are conductors having a prescribed electric resistance value, and are coated with an insulating resist except forcomponent lands 7 each having a rectangular shape or the like. Thewiring patterns 8 are electrically connected to the plate-like metal members 4 (not shown). - Both end surfaces of the plate-
like metal members 4 are connected by soldering so as to be respectively held in contact with thecorresponding component lands 7 to form coil portions each including the plate-like metal member 4 and thewiring pattern 8. A defined number of the coil portions are electrically connected to each other and arranged side by side along the middle leg portion of thecore 3, thereby forming a coil body. - A distance between each of the
component lands 7 that are a lowermost portion and an uppermost portion inFIG. 2 and a bridging portion of thewiring pattern 8, which connects theadjacent component lands 7, and a distance between theadjacent component lands 7 are defined as widths that allow the insulating resist to be interposed therebetween and allow insulation to be ensured for a voltage drop in the coil portion for one turn when a predetermined voltage is applied to a reactor. - The
core 3 has a bottom surface placed on the metal-based printedwiring board 6. - Each of the
insulating members 5 includes a semi-donut portion interposed between the adjacent plate-like metal members 4, which is obtained by halving a donut-shaped plate, a cylindrical portion having a cylindrical shape, which surrounds the middle leg portion of thecore 3, and an outer-diameter side portion interposed between an outer-diameter side of the plate-like metal members 4 and an inner wall of thecore 3. - In the reactor constructed as described above, the metal-based printed
wiring board 6 on which the coil body is arranged is mounted onto the cooler. As a result, heat is efficiently radiated from the coil body, and hence increase in electrical resistance due to temperature rise of the coil body can be suppressed. - Further, the improvement of a heat radiating property allows the heat radiating area of the entire reactor to be reduced. Therefore, the
core 3, the plate-like metal members 4, the metal-based printedwiring board 6, and the like constructing the reactor can be downsized and reduced in weight, and costs can also be reduced thereby. - Further, the cooler configured to cool the reactor can also be downsized and reduced in costs.
- Further, the plate-
like metal members 4 are plate-like members, and hence stable dimensional accuracy can be obtained. Therefore, variation in leakage inductance can be suppressed to suppress variation in loss of the coil body. - Further, the adjustment of an inductance is facilitated by adjusting the number of laminated coil portions, a plate width of the plate-
like metal members 4 that are constituent elements of the coil body, a distance between the coil body and thecore 3, and a gap between the first core portion 1 and thesecond core portion 2. - Further, the plate-
like metal members 4 are connected to the component lands 7 on the metal-based printedwiring board 6 in a one-by-one manner. As a result, the plate-like metal members 4 are arranged so as to be separated away from each other so that the plate-like metal members 4 can individually radiate heat. Therefore, the reduction in thermal resistance and the improvement of the heat radiating property are enabled. - Further, the reactor main body is not required to be housed inside a metal case that is filled with a heat radiating resin to ensure a heat-radiation path unlike the reactor described in
JP 2009-94328 A - Further, the plate-
like metal members 4 are connected to the component lands 7 for each one. As a result, stable dimensional accuracy is obtained between the coil portions that are the constituent elements of the coil body. Hence, variation in the thermal resistance and electric characteristics such as the inductance and the coil-body loss can be reduced. - Further, the tough-pitch copper members are used as the plate-
like metal members 4. As a result, an electrical conductivity close to that of pure copper is obtained to enable realization of a low electric resistance as the coil body. At the same time, the generation of an eddy current along with a leakage flux generated from the reactor because each of the tough-pitch copper members is a non-magnetic metal and an eddy-current loss can be reduced. - Further, simultaneously with the suppression of a loss amount, the heat generated from the plate-
like metal members 4 can be efficiently radiated through the metal-based printedwiring board 6 and the cooler because each of the tough-pitch copper members has a thermal conductivity close to that of pure copper. Further, downsizing and reduction in weight can be realized thereby. - Although a copper-based material is used in this embodiment, an aluminum-based material may also be used.
- By using the aluminum-based material as the plate-
like metal members 4 to be used for the coil body, the generation of the eddy current can be suppressed because the aluminum-based material is a non-magnetic metal although the aluminum-based material is inferior to the copper-based material in heat-radiating property and electrical conductivity. Further, because of a specific gravity extremely smaller than those of the other metals, significant reduction in weight can be realized particularly when the number of turns in the coil body is large. - Further, a unit price of the material is significantly lower than that of the copper-based material, and hence costs can also be reduced.
- Further, the bottom surface of the
core 3 is placed so as to be held in contact with the metal-based printedwiring board 6. As a result, lost heat (iron loss) generated in thecore 3 can be radiated to the cooler through the metal-based printedwiring board 6. - Further, by interposing the insulating
members 5 such as resin plates or insulating sheets between the plate-like metal members 4 and between the plate-like metal members 4 and thecore 3 adjacent thereto, an insulating property between the adjacent plate-like metal members 4 and between the coil body and thecore 3 is ensured. As a result, stable performance as the reactor can be obtained. - Further, when insulation distances between the plate-
like metal members 4 and between the plate-like metal members 4 and thecore 3 adjacent thereto are ensured, the insulatingmembers 5 are not required to be interposed therebetween. - Further, although the plate-
like metal members 4 are used as the constituent elements of the coil body in this embodiment, a round wire or a rectangular wire may be used in place of each of the plate-like metal members 4. - Further, although the metal-based printed
wiring board 6 that is the constituent element of the coil body has been described in this embodiment, a ceramic-based printed wiring board may be used in place of the metal-based printedwiring board 6. By using the ceramic-based printed wiring board, the heat radiating property can be improved while ensuring a high insulating property. Further, downsizing and reduction in weight can be realized thereby. - Further, although the
core 3 has been described as the shell-type core of the PQ type in this embodiment, the present invention is also applicable to other shell-type cores such as EI type, EE type, EER type, and ER type and core-type cores such as U-type. -

wiring patterns 17 for primary winding and thewiring patterns 19 for secondary winding that are adjacent to each other, thewiring patterns 17 for primary winding and thewiring patterns 19 for secondary winding are provided so as to be separated away from each other by a predetermined distance d2 as illustrated inFIG. 4 . - In the transformer constructed as described above, the metal-based printed
wiring board 15 on which the primary winding 20 and the secondary winding 21 are arranged is mounted onto the cooler.

like metal members 12 for primary winding and the plate-like metal members 13 for secondary winding, a distance between each of the primary winding 20 and the second winding 21 and thecore 11, and a gap between thefirst core portion 9 and thesecond core portion 10. - Further, the plate-
like metal members 12 for primary winding and the plate-like metal members 13 for secondary winding are connected onto the component lands 16 and 18 on the metal-based printedwiring board 15 in a one-by-one manner.
