Abstract

A coil electronic component includes a body and external terminals. The body includes a winding coil part and a pillar-shaped core part inserted inside of the winding coil part and formed of a magnetic metal. The external terminals are connected to the winding coil part and disposed on an external surface of the body. The body contains the magnetic metal and a resin, and the pillar-shaped core part has magnetic permeability higher than that of a portion of the body disposed outside of the winding coil part.

Claims

1. A coil electronic component comprising:

a body including a winding coil part and a pillar-shaped core part inserted into a center of the winding coil part and formed of a magnetic metal; and

external terminals connected to the winding coil part and disposed on an external surface of the body,

wherein the body contains the magnetic metal and a resin, and the core part has magnetic permeability higher than that of a portion of the body disposed outside of the winding coil part.

2. The coil electronic component of claim 1, wherein a density of the magnetic metal in the core part is higher than a density of the magnetic metal in the portion of the body disposed outside of the winding coil part.

3. The coil electronic component of claim 1, wherein upper and lower ends of the core part contact a region of the body in which a density of the magnetic metal is lower than in the core part.

4. The coil electronic component of claim 1, wherein an upper surface of the upper end and a lower surface of the lower end of the core part contact the region of the body in which the density of the magnetic metal is lower than in the core part, and

the core part is formed of only the magnetic metal.

5. The coil electronic component of claim 1, wherein a density of the magnetic metal in the portion of the body disposed outside of the winding coil part is equal to or less than 70% of a density of the magnetic metal in the core part.

6. The coil electronic component of claim 1, wherein the winding coil part is formed of an edge-wise rectangular wire.

7. The coil electronic component of claim 6, further comprising:

leads formed of the edge-wise rectangular wire and each extending between a respective end of the winding coil part and the same external surface of the body.

8. The coil electronic component of claim 7, wherein the external terminals are each formed of the edge-wise rectangular wire, and each extend from the same external surface of the body onto another adjacent external surface of the body.

9. A method of manufacturing a coil electronic component, the method comprising:

punching a plurality of magnetic sheets to have holes extending therethrough, and stacking the punched magnetic sheets to form first, second, and third blocks each having a respective groove formed therein;

inserting a pillar-shaped core formed of a magnetic metal into a groove formed in the first block;

stacking the second block having a through hole formed therein on the first block so that the pillar-shaped core is disposed to penetrate through the through hole;

loading a winding coil around the pillar-shaped core; and

stacking the third block on the second block to form a multilayer body in which the winding coil is loaded so that the pillar-shaped core is positioned in a groove of the third block.

10. The method of claim 9, further comprising pressing the multilayer body to form a body.

11. The method of claim 10, wherein the pressing of the multilayer body to form the body is performed by disposing an iron plate on upper and lower portions of the multilayer body.

12. The method of claim 10, wherein the winding coil has leads, each lead extending from a respective end of the winding coil to one surface of the multilayer body and having an exposed portion.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein the leads are exposed to a side surface of the body in a width direction.

14. The method of claim 12, further comprising folding the exposed portions of the leads to form external terminals on an external surface of the body.

15. The method of claim 14, wherein the external terminals extend from a side surface of the body in a width direction to a lower surface of the body.

16. A method of manufacturing a coil electronic component, the method comprising:

forming a first block from a plurality of magnetic sheets stacked in a thickness direction and comprising a magnetic metal, the first block having a groove extending from an upper surface through a partial thickness thereof;

inserting a pillar-shaped core formed of the magnetic metal into the groove formed of the first block;

forming a second block from a plurality of magnetic sheets stacked in the thickness direction and comprising the magnetic metal, the second block having a through hole extending through a thickness thereof;

stacking the second block on the first block such that the pillar-shaped core extends through the through hole of the second block;

disposing a winding coil around the pillar-shaped core within the through-hole of the second block;

forming a third block from a plurality of magnetic sheets stacked in the thickness direction and comprising the magnetic metal, the third block having a groove extending from a lower surface through a partial thickness thereof; and

stacking the third block on the second block such that the pillar-shaped core extends into the groove of the third block.

17. The method of claim 16, wherein the disposing the winding coil around the pillar-shaped core within the through-hole of the second block comprises disposing the winding coil to contact the upper surface of the first block at a location adjacent to the groove of the first block.

18. The method of claim 16, wherein the forming the first block further comprises forming the first block to have a through hole extending therethrough in the thickness direction,

the method further comprising disposing a lead within the through hole of the first block to extend between an end of the winding coil and a lower surface of the first block.

19. The method of claim 18, wherein the forming the first and second blocks further comprise forming the first and second blocks to each have a second through hole extending therethrough in the thickness direction,

the stacking the second block on the first block comprises stacking the second block on the first block such that the second through holes are aligned,

the method further comprising disposing a second lead to extend within the second through holes of the first and second blocks between another end of the winding coil and a lower surface of the first block.
