Definitions

  • the invention relates to fans of the type having a tubular air flow guide envelope provided with flow straightening vanes carrying a central assembly comprising, on the one hand, an electric motor provided with an aerodynamic fairing and of which the shaft carries a propeller placed at the front of the blades and, on the other hand, a tubular casing constituting a single piece of casting with the blades and with at least one section of the envelope surrounding the propeller.
  • the present invention aims to provide a fan with an electric motor that can be produced at a cost barely higher than that of conventional industrial fans, having a significantly improved overall efficiency (ratio of useful power to power of the electric motor) and a reduced noise level.
  • the invention provides a fan of the type defined above, characterized in that the part of said section surrounding the propeller is machined concentrically inside said casing and in that the stator of the electric motor is adjusted in a bore of said housing and is in thermal contact with the housing over its entire circumference.
  • the tubular casing, the blades and the envelope section advantageously constitute a single piece of foundry made of a material having a high thermal conductivity.
  • a spheroidal graphite cast iron which is subjected to a heat treatment giving it a good coefficient of elongation and consequently, allowing it to withstand very large temperature variations.
  • the propeller blade is a machined cylindrical segment. Thanks to the use of an attached segment of short axial length, the machining of which can be carried out at the same time as that of the casing receiving the shaft and the bearings of the shaft of the electric motor, it is possible to ensure precise centering. of the propeller and reduce the radial clearance to a value of the order of a tenth of a millimeter, for which the turbulence at the end of the blade is reduced.
  • the segment can be housed in a cylindrical housing delimited by two constituent parts of the internal envelope so that the machined internal face is substantially level with the internal face of the two parts and does not cause a drop which would be a source of turbulence.
  • the segment can be formed from polytetrafluoroethylene and further machined.
  • the internal casing (or at least its central section), the straightening vanes and the casing are produced by foundry.
  • the external envelope can be produced by mechanical welding, that is to say by economic techniques.
  • the internal envelope may be integral with an external envelope separated by a soundproofing material which reduces the external noise level.
  • the reduction in turbulence also has a favorable effect on this level.
  • the fairing of the electric motor may include an inlet cone and an outlet cone reducing the pressure drops and further improving the overall efficiency.
  • the sheath may also include a converging entrance pavilion.
  • the fan shown in Figure 1 can be regarded as comprising a tubular sheath 10 for guiding the air flow and a central assembly supported by the sheath.
  • the sheath 10 is constituted, in the illustrated embodiment, in three sections or successive parts. Each of these parts has an inner wall and an outer wall.
  • the association of the internal walls constitutes an internal envelope 12 limiting the path of air circulation.
  • the external walls constitute an external envelope 14 concentric with the internal envelope and at a constant distance from the latter.
  • the front part of the sheath carries a converging horn 18 which guides the air streams and makes it possible to reduce the pressure losses.
  • This pavilion can be made of repoussé metal and fixed by welding to the internal envelope.
  • the central assembly is carried by the central part of the sheath.
  • this assembly comprises a casing 20 supported and centered in the envelope by the flow straightening vanes 22 and by a set of sails 24.
  • the vanes and the sails are distributed regularly in the circumferential direction.
  • the fixed part of the central assembly comprises the casing 20, to which is attached the stator 25 of an electric motor constituting the motor member of the fan.
  • the casing 20 is extended at the front by an entry cone 26 in the form of a warhead and, at the rear, by a shaped tip 28 so as to reduce the pressure losses.
  • the cone and the tip can be of pushed metal and fixed to the central part of the casing 20, which can be a molded part.
  • the stator 25 is mounted in a one-piece casing carrying bearings 29 on which the shaft 30 of the motor rotates. This shaft in turn carries a propeller 32, placed between the webs 24 and the flow straightening vanes 22, in the axial direction.
  • the profile, the timing and the arrangement of the blades 32 and of the straightening vanes 22 are chosen to optimize the efficiency of the assembly of the propeller and the electric motor for the expected flow.
  • a segment 34 of molded synthetic material is embedded in the internal casing 12, in line with the blades.
  • the segment 34 is machined and this operation is carried out at the same time as the machining of the bearings 29 carrying the shaft 30, that is to say - say with the same reference axis. Under these conditions, the alignment of the propeller and segment axes is precise enough to tolerate a play of the order of a tenth of a millimeter between propeller 32 and segment 34.
  • a fan intended to receive a motor from 5 to 25 kW has been constituted, with a casing 20 of 240 mm in diameter, carried by several blades (for example seventeen) of rectification 22.
  • the stator of the motor was fitted tightly in the central part of the casing 20, which ensures good cooling.
  • the propeller 32 statically and dynamically balanced, was mounted on the shaft 30 by means of a split cone 35 which guarantees the coaxiality of the shaft and the propeller.
  • the fan shown also includes the accessory elements required for its operation.
  • the motor carcass carries at the rear an electrical connection box 36 connected to a connection box 38, carried by the sheath 10, by conductors contained in a profiled tube 40.
  • the fan can also include measuring or safety elements (not shown), for example a pressure sensor located at the inlet of the fan, an engine temperature sensor, etc.
  • the sheath can also be provided with fasteners for receiving an air filter located at the front.
  • FIG. 2 in which the elements corresponding to those of FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference number, also comprises a casting part, advantageously made of spheroidal graphite cast iron, grouping together the casing 20, the blades 22 and the central section of the internal casing 12.
  • the straightening vanes 22 extend over a length exceeding that of the stator 25 of the motor.
  • These blades have a shape (indicated in phantom) adapted to that of the propeller blades 32.
  • the casing 20 is machined internally, concentrically with the part of the internal envelope which directly surrounds the propeller 32. This machining allows centering precision of the flanges 42 which carry the bearings 29 and of the stator 25.
  • the magnetic circuit of the latter is machined at its periphery so as to engage with gentle friction in the bore of the casing 20, where it is immobilized by a simple key 44.
  • a conductive grease is advantageously interposed between the casing and the ferromagnetic carcass of the motor to improve heat transfers.
  • the inlet cone 26 rotates with the propeller of which it is integral.
  • an annular segment of polytetrafluoroethylene in a groove (indicated in dashes) of the envelope section 12.
  • This segment can in particular consist of a section of large diameter polytetrafluoroethylene tube .
  • the segment is then machined concentric with the bore of the casing 20 once in place.
  • the fan can be supplemented with the same elements as those which have been represented in FIG. 1. More generally, it is possible to substitute the provisions of FIG. 2 with those of FIG. 1.
