Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inductors, and in particular to an inductor with a shield. Background Technology

[0002] Inductors are a basic electronic component with a wide range of applications. With the continuous development of the electronic communication industry, the requirements for inductors and other electronic components are becoming increasingly stringent. They are required to be small in size, highly efficient, low in noise, and low in production cost, while also having low losses, fast heat dissipation, and resistance to EMI interference.

[0003] A novel inductor is disclosed in the prior art, comprising a coil, a magnetic core, and a metal shield. The coil is wound around the magnetic core, and the metal shield consists of a top wall, side walls, and a bottom wall. The bottom wall has two openings, and the magnetic core is fixed between the top and bottom walls. The two leads of the coil extend from the openings in the bottom wall. The top and bottom ends of the magnetic core are close to the top and bottom walls of the metal shield, ensuring stable height and allowing the inductor to be mounted on the circuit board, thus improving product quality. The soft magnetic gel on the outer layer of the metal shield and the coil can effectively reduce EMI interference. However, when this shielded inductor is energized, the winding assembly generates heat, but due to the protection of the shield and the gap between the shield and the winding assembly, the heat is difficult to dissipate, resulting in poor heat dissipation.

[0004] Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be researched to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology and its main purpose is to provide an inductor with a shield. Through the structural design of the shield, it effectively solves the problem in the traditional technology where there is a gap between the shield and the winding assembly, which makes it difficult for heat to dissipate and results in poor heat dissipation.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] An inductor with a shield includes a frame, a magnetic core, a coil, and a shield, wherein the magnetic core is mounted on the frame and the coil is wound around the magnetic core;

[0008] The coil is wrapped with a first insulating layer, and leads are connected to both ends of the coil. A terminal post is provided at the bottom end of the lead. The shield is fixed to the upper end face of the frame and covers the coil. The shield includes a top plate and a peripheral side plate integrally extended along the lower end of the top plate. The top plate and the peripheral side plate form a cavity for receiving the coil. The magnetic core and the coil are located inside the cavity.

[0009] The top plate has several heat dissipation holes, and a heat dissipation plate is provided on the upper surface of the top plate; a heat dissipation gap is formed between the inside of the peripheral plate and the outside of the coil, and a heat-conducting element is provided in the heat dissipation gap; a second insulating layer is provided on the outer surface of the peripheral plate.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, the inner side of the heat-conducting component is provided with a mating groove corresponding to the coil, and the heat-conducting component is sleeved on the outer side of the coil through the mating groove; so that during installation, the mating groove is aligned with the coil, and the heat-conducting component and the coil are tightly fitted together, so as to better dissipate heat.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment, the heat-conducting component is a thermally conductive silicone sheet, which is relatively soft and has good insulation and thermal conductivity. It can effectively fill the gap between the shield and the coil, establish a heat dissipation channel, and quickly conduct the heat of the coil to the shield for heat dissipation, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the coil and preventing the coil from being damaged due to excessive temperature during operation.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment, the first insulating layer is a neoprene flame-retardant rubber layer, which has good flame-retardant effect, avoids safety accidents caused by excessive temperature, and has high safety.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment, the outer surface of the peripheral side plate is coated with a second insulating layer, which is an insulating varnish.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment, a rubber block is also provided between the inner end face of the top plate and the upper end face of the coil. The rubber block is centrally located on the inner end face of the top plate and is made of high thermal conductivity rubber material. The rubber block ensures that the magnetic core is in close contact with the shielding cover, resulting in better heat dissipation of the inductor and more stable operation.

[0015] As a preferred embodiment, the rubber block and the heat dissipation hole are staggered vertically to prevent blockage between the rubber block and the heat dissipation hole, which would affect the use.

[0016] As a preferred embodiment, a shielding sleeve is fitted onto the surface of the terminal block to shield electromagnetic signals around the pin.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has significant advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, as can be seen from the above technical solution, it mainly achieves this through the structural design of the shielding cover. The shielding cover includes a top plate and peripheral side plates. The top plate is provided with several heat dissipation holes, and a heat dissipation plate is provided on the upper surface of the top plate. A heat dissipation gap is formed between the interior of the peripheral side plates and the exterior of the coil, and a heat-conducting element is provided in the heat dissipation gap. In this way, the heat-conducting element is tightly attached to the coil. The design of the heat-conducting element has good insulation and thermal conductivity, which can effectively fill the gap between the shielding cover and the coil, establish a heat dissipation channel, and quickly conduct the heat of the coil to the shielding cover for heat dissipation through the heat dissipation holes and heat dissipation plate, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the coil and preventing the coil from being damaged due to excessive temperature during operation.

Preferably, a shielding sleeve 33 is fitted onto the surface of the terminal 32. The shielding cover 40 weakens the external electromagnetic field, and the shielding sleeve 33 shields the electromagnetic signals around the pin, thereby achieving the goal of facilitating the shielding of electromagnetic signals and achieving the effect of facilitating the weakening of the electromagnetic field generated by the circuit.
