Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of inductor technology, and in particular to a general-purpose toroidal inductor base. Background Technology
[0002] The base plays several key roles in toroidal inductors: 1. Mechanical support and fixation: Preventing deformation, breakage, or winding loosening during handling, installation, or exposure to vibration and impact. 2. Standardized design: The base ensures uniform mounting dimensions (e.g., hole spacing) for toroidal inductors of different specifications, facilitating circuit board design and inventory management. 3. Physical protection: The base raises the distance between the inductor body and the PCB board, avoiding the risk of short circuits between the bottom winding and solder joints or other components on the board. It also protects the most vulnerable bottom area of the coil. 4. Stability: Robust fixation reduces electrical connection instability or distributed parameter variations caused by physical fretting. 5. Enhanced vibration resistance: In environments with high vibration, such as automotive, industrial equipment, and aerospace applications, the base firmly locks the inductor in its designated position, preventing solder joint fatigue fracture, core wear, or performance drift due to long-term vibration, significantly improving product reliability and lifespan.
[0003] Since the size of inductors is often limited by the application scenario, there are horizontal and vertical types. Therefore, a universal horizontal and vertical base is designed to meet the size requirements of toroidal inductors in different application scenarios, so that inductor designers can better create inductor products with matching size based on existing materials. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model aims to provide a horizontal and vertical universal toroidal inductor base to meet the requirements of different usage scenarios for vertical or horizontal toroidal inductors, enabling inductor designers to better create inductor products with matching dimensions based on existing materials.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a universal ring inductor base, including an inductor side mating seat, the top of which has a first mating surface that mates with the side of the ring inductor, a connecting part connected to one side of the inductor side mating seat, an inductor end face mating seat connected to the connecting part, and the inductor end face mating seat having a second mating surface that mates with the end face of the ring inductor; the second mating surface is higher than the first mating surface, and together the first and second mating surfaces form an inductor receiving area. A vertical wire groove corresponding to the inductor housing area runs through the side mounting base of the inductor, and a horizontal wire groove corresponding to the inductor housing area runs through the end mounting base of the inductor.
[0006] A further technical solution of this utility model: The top of the inductor side mating seat is connected to a connecting arm extending toward the inductor receiving area, and a first locking block corresponding to the second mating surface is connected to the connecting arm. The connecting arm and / or the inductor side mating seat and / or the inductor end face mating seat are elastically bendable components, and are configured to be elastically bend to increase the distance between the first locking block and the second mating surface.
[0007] A further technical solution of this utility model: the first card block has a first guide slope on the side away from the first mating surface.
[0008] A further technical solution of this utility model: the first card block has a first guide slope on the side away from the first mating surface.
[0009] A further technical solution of this utility model: an inductor support seat is formed on the second mating surface, extending towards the connecting arm. The inductor support seat supports the ring inductor and forms a gap between the end face of the ring inductor and the second mating surface.
[0010] A further technical solution of this utility model: a second locking block is formed on the inductor support base to cooperate with the first locking block.
[0011] A further technical solution of this utility model: the second card block has a second guide slope on the side away from the first mating surface.
[0012] A further technical solution of this utility model: a relative engagement area is formed between the first card block and the second card block, and a through hole is provided on the part of the inductor side mating seat corresponding to the relative engagement area.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this technical solution are: the universal toroidal inductor base is a transformation from the traditional single-type base, which can meet the different requirements of inductor size in different application scenarios by being placed vertically or horizontally, and solves the problem of procurement costs, management costs and some intangible costs caused by the incompatibility of materials.
[0014] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Currently, there are two types of toroidal inductor bases: one is a single vertical toroidal inductor base, in which the top surface of the base aligns with the side (or outer circumference) of the toroidal inductor, making the inductor stand upright relative to the base; the other is a single horizontal toroidal inductor base, in which the top surface aligns with one end of the toroidal inductor, making the inductor lie flat relative to the base. Because these two types of toroidal inductor bases are not interchangeable, a single vertical toroidal inductor base must be used when manufacturing vertical toroidal inductors, and a single horizontal toroidal inductor base must be used when manufacturing horizontal toroidal inductors. Users need to manufacture or purchase both types of toroidal inductor bases. Correspondingly, this incompatibility increases procurement costs, management costs, and some intangible costs. Therefore, a universal toroidal inductor base is proposed to at least solve the above-mentioned technical problems, so that the universal toroidal inductor base can be used for the manufacture of vertical and horizontal toroidal inductors, and can be used at least as a base for vertical toroidal inductors and as a base for horizontal toroidal inductors.
[0019] Please see Figure 1A general-purpose toroidal inductor base includes an inductor side mating seat 1. The top of the inductor side mating seat 1 has a first mating surface 101 that mates with the side of a toroidal inductor (not shown). A connecting part 2 is connected to one side of the inductor side mating seat 1. An inductor end face mating seat 3 is connected to the connecting part 2. The inductor end face mating seat 3 has a second mating surface 301 that mates with the end face of the toroidal inductor.
[0020] The second mating surface 301 is higher than the first mating surface 101, and forms an inductor receiving area 4 which is enclosed (or understood as sandwiched) by the first mating surface 101 and the second mating surface 301.
[0021] A vertical wire groove 102 corresponding to the inductor receiving area 4 passes through the inductor side mating seat 1, and a horizontal wire groove 302 corresponding to the inductor receiving area 4 passes through the inductor end face mating seat 3.
[0022] When this general-purpose toroidal inductor base is used as a base for a vertical toroidal inductor, the toroidal inductor can be placed upright in the inductor housing area and above the inductor side mating seat. The toroidal inductor wire can be led out downward from the vertical wire groove. At this time, the inductor end face mating seat can also protect the end face of the toroidal inductor.
[0023] When using this general-purpose toroidal inductor base as a base for a horizontal toroidal inductor, such as Figure 2 As shown, the universal toroidal inductor base can be flipped so that the first mating surface is higher than the second mating surface. That is, the second mating surface is flipped to the top of the inductor end face mating seat. Then, the toroidal inductor can be placed in a flat position in the inductor receiving area and above the inductor end face mating seat. The wire of the toroidal inductor can be led out downward from the horizontal wire groove. At this time, the inductor side mating seat can also form protection for the side of the toroidal inductor.
[0024] This universal toroidal inductor base is suitable for manufacturing both vertical and horizontal toroidal inductors. Users only need to manufacture or purchase this type of universal toroidal inductor base. Correspondingly, it effectively solves the problems of increased procurement costs, management costs, and some intangible costs caused by the incompatibility of materials between the two types of traditional structures.
[0025] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the top of the inductor side mating seat 1 is connected to a connecting arm 5 extending toward the inductor receiving area 4, and a first locking block 6 corresponding to the second mating surface 301 is connected to the connecting arm 5.
[0026] The connecting arm 5 and / or the inductor side mating seat and / or the inductor end face mating seat are elastically bendable components. This allows them to bend elastically, increasing the distance between the first locking block 6 and the second mating surface 301, enabling the side of the toroidal inductor to pass between them. Conversely, they can also elastically recover, reducing the distance between the first locking block 6 and the second mating surface 301, allowing the first locking block 6 to engage with the inner channel of the toroidal inductor, thus securing the toroidal inductor to the universal toroidal inductor base. This eliminates the need for traditional adhesive bonding, making the connection between the universal toroidal inductor base and the toroidal inductor more convenient.
[0027] In some embodiments, the first card block 6 has a first guide slope 601 on the side away from the first mating surface, and the ring inductor can more easily enter between the first card block and the second mating surface through the first guide slope.
[0028] In some embodiments, an inductor support 7 extending toward the connecting arm is formed on the second mating surface 301. The inductor support 7 enables the toroidal inductor to be supported by the inductor support 7 when used for a horizontal toroidal inductor, thereby forming a gap between the end face of the toroidal inductor and the second mating surface.
[0029] In some embodiments, the inductor support 7 is formed with a second locking block 8 that mates with the first locking block 6. The first locking block 6 and the second locking block 8 together form a snap-fit retention for the toroidal inductor.
[0030] Preferably, the second locking block 8 has a second guide slope 801 on the side away from the first mating surface.
[0031] In some embodiments, a relative engagement area 9 is formed between the first locking block 6 and the second locking block 8, and a through hole 103 is provided on the part of the inductor side mating seat 1 corresponding to the relative engagement area 9.
[0032] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.
