A laminated core includes a laminated body, clamping plates and holding members. The laminated body includes a plurality of amorphous alloy plates, which are stacked one after another in a stacking direction such that each adjacent two of the plurality of amorphous alloy plates directly contact with each other. The clamping plates contact opposed end surfaces, respectively, of the laminated body in the stacking direction. A thickness of each of the first and second clamping plates in the stacking direction is larger than that of each of the plurality of amorphous alloy plates. Each holding member contacts with the clamping plates and maintains a predetermined space between the clamping plates while the laminated body is clamped between the clamping plates.

Laminated core

An electromagnetic device includes a plurality of coils formed by winding conductors. At least some of the conductors are constructed by stacking conductor constructional elements so that an eddy current generated by a leakage flux linked to the conductor is divided. An outer insulating member is disposed on an outer circumferential surface of the conductor stack for electrically insulating the conductor stack from another member. An inner insulating member whose thickness is smaller than a thickness of the outer insulating member is disposed between the conductor constructional elements adjoining to each other in the same conductor stack.
