Abstract
A coil assembly having a simplified bobbin structure and facilitating connection of a draw-out portion of a wire to a pin terminal. A coil assembly includes first and second pin support portions protruding in a protruding direction from a terminal base. First and second pin terminals protrude in the protruding direction from free end faces of the first and second pin support portions, respectively. The draw-out portion is electrically connected to an associated one of the pin terminals. The second pin support portion provides a protruding length from the terminal base greater than that of the first pin support portion, and the free end face of the second pin support portion is positioned downstream, in the protruding direction, of an imaginary linear draw-out portion directed linearly from the wire engaging portion to the first pin terminal, such that the second pin support portion is positioned and sized to intersect with the imaginary linear draw-out portion.
