Description

La présente invention se réfère à des perfectionnements apportés à un générateur-récepteur hydraulique pour la transmission de puissance du genre décrit dans les brevets européens 165 884, 262 189 et 483 029.The present invention refers to improvements made to a hydraulic generator-receiver for the transmission of power of the kind described in European patents 165 884, 262 189 and 483 029.

On a décrit dans le premier de ces trois documents un appareil comprenant deux pignons à denture hélicoïdale accouplés à l'intérieur d'un stator, au moins l'un d'eux étant dépourvu de palier mécanique. Le stator est établi sous la forme d'une enveloppe souple qui comporte par ailleurs au moins une ouverture d'arrivée pour un liquide à basse pression et une ouverture de refoulement pour un liquide à haute pression. Le stator comporte encore deux flasques souples identiques et retournés l'un par rapport à l'autre coopérant avec l'enveloppe et renfermant les deux pignons avec lesquels ils assurent une étanchéité latérale par leur face intérieure identique.In the first of these three documents, an apparatus has been described comprising two pinion gears with helical teeth coupled inside a stator, at least one of them being devoid of mechanical bearing. The stator is established in the form of a flexible envelope which moreover comprises at least one inlet opening for a liquid at low pressure and a discharge opening for a liquid at high pressure. The stator further comprises two identical flexible flanges and turned one relative to the other cooperating with the casing and enclosing the two pinions with which they provide lateral sealing by their identical inner face.

L'enveloppe souple est soumise extérieurement à une pression centripète qui lui permet d'assurer l'étanchéité sur les sommets des dents des pignons à denture hélicoïdale située dans l'enveloppe. Les forces de compensation hydrostatique sur les flasques et sur l'enveloppe proviennent d'une part de la pression d'une zone de pression totale permanente et d'autre part de la pression régnant dans des secteurs de compensation hydrostatique d'équilibrage, respectivement de l'enveloppe et des flasques. Les secteurs sont alimentés par des canaux. Des couvercles rigides recouvrent les flasques, tandis qu'un corps également rigide entoure l'enveloppe.The flexible casing is subjected externally to a centripetal pressure which enables it to seal the tops of the teeth of pinions with helical teeth situated in the casing. The hydrostatic compensation forces on the flanges and on the casing originate on the one hand from the pressure of a permanent total pressure zone and on the other hand from the pressure prevailing in balancing hydrostatic compensation sectors, respectively of envelope and flanges. The sectors are fed by channels. Rigid covers cover the flanges, while an equally rigid body surrounds the casing.

L'équilibrage hydraulique interne est assuré par un bobinage hydraulique comprenant des conduits rotoriques dans les pignons et statoriques dans les flasques et l'enveloppe. Les commutations successives entre les conduits rotoriques et statoriques sont assurées par leurs extrémités défilant les unes devant les autres sur un cercle de commutation. L'équilibrage entre les creux de dents est assuré par la liaison permanente entre les creux de dents opposés pour un nombre de dents pair et les creux de dents opposés avec un décalage de 1 2

Figure imgb0001
pas pour un nombre de dents impair par l'intermédiaire des conduits des flasques et des canaux ménagés dans les pignons. Bien entendu, cette liaison n'existe pas dans la zone d'engrènement et dans les zones diamétralement opposées à cette zone d'engrènement par rapport aux pignons et dans lesquelles sont créés des paliers hydrauliques diamétralement opposés. Ainsi, au cours de la rotation des pignons, le bobinage met en relation les couples de dents opposées de façon à obtenir une même pression hydraulique dans les creux de dents pour des positions angulaires diamétralement opposées et à créer deux forces inverses sur les pignons en vue de provoquer leur engrènement sans jeu dans la zone d'engrènement.The internal hydraulic balancing is ensured by a hydraulic winding comprising rotor ducts in the pinions and stator in the flanges and the casing. Successive switches between the rotor and stator conduits are ensured by their ends running past one another on a switching circle. Balancing between the tooth hollows is ensured by the permanent connection between the opposite tooth hollows for an even number of teeth and the opposite tooth hollows with an offset of 1 2
Figure imgb0001
not for an odd number of teeth via the flange conduits and the channels formed in the pinions. Of course, this connection does not exist in the engagement zone and in the zones diametrically opposite to this engagement zone with respect to the pinions and in which hydraulic diametrically opposed bearings are created. So during the rotation of the pinions, the winding connects the pairs of opposite teeth so as to obtain the same hydraulic pressure in the hollow of teeth for diametrically opposite angular positions and to create two opposite forces on the pinions in order to cause their engagement without play in the mesh area.

Pour les grosses cylindrées, la solution décrite dans EP 483 029 consiste à multiplier le nombre de pignons satellites menés par un pignon principal, ce dernier ayant un nombre de secteurs fonction du nombre de satellites, chaque satellite ayant toujours quatre secteurs, deux secteurs HP et deux secteurs BP.For large displacements, the solution described in EP 483 029 consists in multiplying the number of satellite pinions driven by a main pinion, the latter having a number of sectors depending on the number of satellites, each satellite always having four sectors, two HP sectors and two BP sectors.

Les modes de réalisation suivant EP 0165884, EP 0262189 et EP 0483029 n'assurent pas un équilibrage axial satisfaisant du pignon menant. En effet, si l'action des paliers hydrauliques radiaux assure l'équilibre radial, l'équilibrage axial du pignon menant par les compensations hydrostatiques sur les flasques au point d'engrénement n'assure qu'un équilibrage local de la composante axiale en ce point entraînant une usure locale plus importante du flasque soumis à la composante axiale du pignon menant et donc une tenue en endurance précaire. L'équilibrage général axial du pignon menant n'est pas assuré du fait des composantes axiales, à chaque extrémité de l'ensemble constitué par chacun des secteurs d'équilibrage haute pression et par les deux éléments adjacents de la zone toujours à haute pression, résultant des compensations hydrostatiques sur les flasques.The embodiments according to EP 0165884, EP 0262189 and EP 0483029 do not provide satisfactory axial balancing of the driving pinion. Indeed, if the action of the radial hydraulic bearings ensures the radial balance, the axial balancing of the pinion leading by the hydrostatic compensations on the flanges at the point of engagement only ensures a local balancing of the axial component in this point causing greater local wear of the flange subjected to the axial component of the driving pinion and therefore a precarious endurance resistance. The axial general balancing of the driving pinion is not ensured due to the axial components, at each end of the assembly formed by each of the high pressure balancing sectors and by the two adjacent elements of the zone always at high pressure, resulting from hydrostatic compensations on the flanges.

D'autre part, l'équilibre des composantes tangentielles sur le pignon menant est assuré par les réactions des paliers mécaniques. Ces réactions, par l'usure qu'elles provoquent, sont préjudiciables à long terme à l'équilibre interne du générateur-récepteur à un seul pignon satellite mené, générateur-récepteur à denture hélicoïdale ou à chevron, et il est possible de les remplacer par un équilibrage hydrostatique partiel dans les deux sens de rotation et total pour un seul sens de rotation (cas le plus fréquent pour les faibles cylindrées qui ne nécessite qu'un seul pignon satellite). Ce dispositif peut donc s'appliquer également aux générateurs-récepteurs à pignons à dentures hélicoïdales à chevrons, cette denture étant analogue à une denture hélicoïdale simple lorsque l'appareil est à deux pignons.On the other hand, the balance of the tangential components on the driving pinion is ensured by the reactions of the mechanical bearings. These reactions, through the wear they cause, are detrimental in the long term to the internal balance of the generator-receiver with a single driven satellite gear, generator-receiver with helical or chevron teeth, and it is possible to replace them. by a partial hydrostatic balancing in both directions of rotation and total for a single direction of rotation (the most frequent case for small displacements which requires only one satellite pinion). This device can therefore also be applied to generator-receivers with gears with helical herringbone teeth, this toothing being analogous to a simple helical toothing when the apparatus is with two gears.

On a illustré en fig. 1 à 5 les différentes forces hydrauliques et mécaniques agissant sur la face entraînante du pignon menant référencé 9 et correspondant à la partie active de la face entraînante en haute pression, le générateur-récepteur fonctionnant en générateur, le pignon menant comportant une hélice à gauche et tournant dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre (SIH).Illustrated in fig. 1 to 5 the different hydraulic and mechanical forces acting on the driving face of the driving pinion referenced 9 and corresponding to the active part of the driving face at high pressure, the generator-receiver operating as a generator, the driving pinion comprising a propeller on the left and turning counterclockwise (SIH).

Le pignon mené 10 est quant à lui totalement équilibré puisque les faces de chaque creux de dents sont soumises aux mêmes forces mécaniques et hydrauliques tangentielles, radiales et axiales.As for the driven pinion 10, it is totally balanced since the faces of each tooth recess are subjected to the same tangential, radial and axial mechanical and hydraulic forces.

Sur le pignon 9 sont appliquées :

  • la force radiale FR (fig. 1)
  • la force axiale FA (fig. 2)
  • la force tangentielle FT (fig. 2)
On the pinion 9 are applied:
  • the radial force FR (fig. 1)
  • the axial force FA (fig. 2)
  • the tangential force FT (fig. 2)

La force tangentielle FT est définie à partir de la puissance transmise et de la vitesse de rotation, les forces FR et FA s'en déduisant par l'intermédiaire de FN et FX et de l'angle γ de pression réel et de l'angle β qui est le complément de l'angle d'hélice α défini dans EP 0 262 189.The tangential force FT is defined on the basis of the transmitted power and the speed of rotation, the forces FR and FA being deduced therefrom via FN and FX and the angle γ of real pressure and the angle β which is the complement of the helix angle α defined in EP 0 262 189.

En fig. 2 on a illustré la force tangentielle FT qui détermine la force axiale FA.In fig. 2 there is illustrated the tangential force FT which determines the axial force FA.

On a illustré en fig. 3 et 4 l'orientation de la force axiale FA à laquelle est soumis le pignon menant 9, tandis que le couple MFA résultant de la force FA a été illustré en fig. 5.Illustrated in fig. 3 and 4 the orientation of the axial force FA to which the driving pinion 9 is subjected, while the torque MFA resulting from the force FA has been illustrated in FIG. 5.

Sur cette figure est illustré le bilan des forces et couples à équilibrer sur le pignon menant 9 d'un générateur-récepteur à un seul pignon satellite 10, les pignons 9 et 10 étant renfermés dans le corps 49, selon le sens de rotation SIH ou SH. Les illustrations de la partie droite de fig. 5 se rapportent bien entendu au pignon menant 9. La force axiale FA s'appliquant sur celui-ci se trouve perpendiculaire à la face latérale de ce pignon, tandis que la force FT agit dans ce même plan perpendiculairement à l'axe 6 passant par les centres des deux pignons.In this figure is illustrated the balance of forces and torques to be balanced on the driving pinion 9 of a generator-receiver with a single satellite pinion 10, the pinions 9 and 10 being enclosed in the body 49, according to the direction of rotation SIH or SH. The illustrations on the right side of fig. 5 of course relate to the driving pinion 9. The axial force FA applying on it is perpendicular to the lateral face of this pinion, while the force FT acts in this same plane perpendicular to the axis 6 passing through the centers of the two gables.

Cette force agit du point 305 vers le point 306 diamétralement opposé ou inversement suivant le sens de rotation. Le couple MFA est équilibré par les réactions des paliers du pignon menant.This force acts from point 305 to point 306 diametrically opposite or vice versa depending on the direction of rotation. The MFA torque is balanced by the reactions of the bearings of the driving pinion.

Les perfectionnements qui font l'objet de la présente invention visent à remédier à ces inconvénients et à permettre un équilibrage hydrostatique axial et tangentiel du pignon menant.The improvements which are the subject of the present invention aim to remedy these drawbacks and to allow axial and tangential hydrostatic balancing of the driving pinion.

A cet effet, pour réaliser l'équilibrage axial, l'on fait varier la valeur de la surface de la zone toujours en haute pression, de manière qu'on produise une application de la haute pression sur une surface d'un des flasques, soit plus grande, soit plus faible, l'autre flasque n'étant pas influencé par cette variation de surface, tandis que pour exécuter l'équilibrage tangentiel, on fait varier la surface des secteurs de l'enveloppe adjacents au point d'engrènement au détriment de la zone toujours en haute pression.To this end, in order to achieve axial balancing, the value of the surface of the zone is always varied at high pressure, so that an application of the high pressure is produced on a surface of one of the flanges, either larger or smaller, the other flange not being influenced by this surface variation, while in order to perform tangential balancing, the surface of the sectors of the envelope adjacent to the point of meshing is varied detriment to the area still under high pressure.

Le dessin annexé, donné à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caractéristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer :The appended drawing, given by way of example, will allow a better understanding of the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it is capable of providing:

Les éléments correspondants à ceux des brevets antérieurs cités au début des présentes ont été référencés par les mêmes chiffres et les mêmes indices, de sorte qu'il n'est pas nécessaire de les décrire à nouveau.The elements corresponding to those of the earlier patents cited at the beginning of the present document have been referenced by the same numbers and the same clues, so there is no need to describe them again.

L'équilibrage hydrostatique de la force FR par les paliers hydrauliques dans les zones 6 est obtenu par une valeur théorique de ½ pas angulaire de denture, soit Π/Z. Cette valeur est suffisante pour équilibrer les forces radiales mécaniques et hydrostatiques dans la zone d'engrènement 3. Cette valeur de ½ pas peut varier en fonction des conditions d'étanchéité en 3 et des valeurs des pressions dans les creux de dents. Elle est valable pour un recouvrement hydraulique RE au point d'engrènement 3 tel que RE = Arc de conduite Pas de base

de valeur 1,5, donnant une saillie de dent légèrement supérieure à une fois le module apparent de denture M.The hydrostatic balancing of the force FR by the hydraulic bearings in zones 6 is obtained by a theoretical value of ½ angular pitch of toothing, ie Π / Z. This value is sufficient to balance the mechanical and hydrostatic radial forces in the engagement zone 3. This value of ½ step can vary according to the sealing conditions in 3 and the values of the pressures in the hollow of teeth. It is valid for a hydraulic recovery RE at mesh point 3 such that RE = Driving arc No basic

with a value of 1.5, giving a tooth projection slightly greater than once the apparent modulus of toothing M.

La surpression dans le creux de dent résultant des irrégularités de débit se trouve être une sécurité fonctionnelle naturelle, mais si celle-ci se trouvait trop élevée, elle peut être évacuée par un anti-retour vers la zone 34, (zone en haute pression) ou vers la haute pression comme prévu dans EP 0 165 884.The overpressure in the hollow of the tooth resulting from the irregularities of flow happens to be a natural functional safety, but if this was too high, it can be evacuated by a non-return towards zone 34, (zone in high pressure) or towards high pressure as provided in EP 0 165 884.

L'équilibrage hydrostatique de la force FA doit permettre la réversibilité, c'est-à-dire le changement de sens de rotation en générateur ou en récepteur de l'appareil suivant l'invention. La meilleure solution pour un appareil à un seul pignon mené est d'adopter pour les deux pignons une denture à chevrons grâce à laquelle les forces axiales FA s'équilibrent naturellement entre les deux 1 2

Figure imgb0003
dentures hélicoïdales d'inclinaison opposées de ladite denture en chevrons.The hydrostatic balancing of the force FA must allow reversibility, that is to say the change of direction of rotation in generator or receiver of the apparatus according to the invention. The best solution for a device with a single driven sprocket is to adopt for the two sprockets a herringbone toothing thanks to which the axial forces FA naturally balance between the two 1 2
Figure imgb0003
helical teeth of opposite inclination of said herringbone toothing.

Par contre, pour un générateur-récepteur comportant deux pignons à denture hélicoïdale normale, l'équilibrage de la force axiale FA doit s'effectuer comme décrit ci-après.On the other hand, for a generator-receiver comprising two pinions with normal helical teeth, the balancing of the axial force FA must be carried out as described below.

On peut tout d'abord adopter une première solution illustrée en fig. 8, suivant laquelle le diamètre D de la zone de pression totale permanente 34 est augmenté d'une valeur ΔD pour devenir D +ΔD au niveau des secteurs 60' et 60 opposés diamétralement l'un à l'autre du côté du pignon menant 9, lesdits secteurs étant disposés sur les flasques 21, 22 tandis que les dimensions desdits secteurs du côté pignon mené 10 restent inchangées. L'augmentation de ΔD donne une surface supplémentaire ΔS de la zone 34 de telle sorte que ΔS= FA/HP. Cette disposition entraîne la naissance d'une force supplémentaire sur le flasque où les secteurs 60 et 60' sont en basse pression. Cette force égale à FA, et de sens opposé, équilibre le pignon menant 9 dans le sens axial.We can first of all adopt a first solution illustrated in FIG. 8, according to which the diameter D of the permanent total pressure zone 34 is increased by a value ΔD to become D + ΔD at the sectors 60 ′ and 60 diametrically opposite to each other on the side of the driving pinion 9 , said sectors being arranged on the flanges 21, 22 while the dimensions of said sectors on the driven pinion side 10 remain unchanged. The increase in ΔD gives an additional surface ΔS of the zone 34 so that ΔS = FA / HP. This arrangement gives rise to an additional force on the flange where sectors 60 and 60 'are at low pressure. This force equal to FA, and in the opposite direction, balances the driving pinion 9 in the axial direction.

On peut aussi utiliser la solution illustrée en fig. 9 qui consiste à incorporer au secteur 60" des flasques 21, 22 une extension 301, au détriment de la zone 34 de haute pression permanente, de surface ΔS. L'extension 301 se présente sous la forme générale d'un polygone entouré par une déviation du joint 45".One can also use the solution illustrated in fig. 9 which consists in incorporating into the sector 60 "of the flanges 21, 22 an extension 301, to the detriment of the area 34 of high permanent pressure, of surface ΔS. The extension 301 is in the general form of a polygon surrounded by a 45 "joint deflection.

Cette structure entraîne la création d'une force perpendiculaire au flasque dans lequel le secteur 60" se trouve en haute pression, ladite force étant égale à la force axiale FA par suite du choix de la surface ΔS et de sens opposé. La force antagoniste en cause -FA rééquilibre le pignon menant 9.This structure results in the creation of a force perpendicular to the flange in which the sector 60 "is at high pressure, said force being equal to the axial force FA as a result of the choice of the surface ΔS and of opposite direction. The opposing force in cause -FA rebalances the driving pinion 9.

Le couple résultant de la distance séparant la force antagoniste -FA et la force axiale FA et dont la valeur est M FA = FA × DP 2

dans la solution illustrée en fig. 8 (dans laquele Dp est le diamètre primitif de la denture du pignon 9) est équilibré par les réactions des paliers mécaniques 123 du pignon 9.The torque resulting from the distance separating the antagonistic force -FA and the axial force FA and whose value is M FA = FA × DP 2
Figure imgb0004
in the solution illustrated in fig. 8 (in which D p is the original diameter of the teeth of the pinion 9) is balanced by the reactions of the mechanical bearings 123 of the pinion 9.

Dans le cas d'un appareil à plusieurs pignons satellites n menés, l'équilibrage axial du pignon menant 9 s'effectue suivant l'une des deux solutions ci-dessus et les vecteurs moments des couples résultants s'annulent. La force supplémentaire de réequilibrage est égale à la force axiale FA par couple de pignons 9, 10 multipliée par le nombre de satellites n.In the case of an apparatus with several driven satellite gears n, the axial balancing of the driving pinion 9 is carried out according to one of the two solutions above and the moment vectors of the resulting couples cancel each other out. The additional rebalancing force is equal to the axial force FA per pair of pinions 9, 10 multiplied by the number of satellites n.

On a illustré en fig. 7 un appareil suivant l'invention à un seul pignon mené 10, le pignon menant 9 étant à hélice à gauche. Ce pignon se trouve donc à l'arrière du plan de coupe de la figure, tandis que le pignon mené 10 se trouve en avant dudit plan avec hélice à droite.Illustrated in fig. 7 an apparatus according to the invention with a single driven pinion 10, the driving pinion 9 being a helix on the left. This pinion is therefore at the rear of the section plane of the figure, while the driven pinion 10 is located in front of said plane with propeller on the right.

De ce fait, la force axiale FA est dirigée vers le bas, si bien que la force antagoniste -FA doit être dirigée vers le haut et de toute façon en sens opposé à FA.Therefore, the axial force FA is directed downwards, so that the opposing force -FA must be directed upwards and in any case in the opposite direction to FA.

En conséquence :

  • si l'on augmente la zone 34, cette augmentation s'étend sur le secteur 60' et sur le secteur 60 opposé (fig. 8). Cette augmentation n'entraîne aucune force supplémentaire sur le flasque 21 sur lequel les secteurs 60 et 60' sont en haute pression, tandis qu'elle crée la force antagoniste recherchée -FA sur le flasque opposé 22 dont les secteurs 60 et 60' sont en basse pression.
Consequently :
  • if the area 34 is increased, this increase extends over the sector 60 ′ and over the opposite sector 60 (FIG. 8). This increase does not cause any additional force on the flange 21 on which the sectors 60 and 60 'are under high pressure, while it creates the desired opposing force -FA on the opposite flange 22 whose sectors 60 and 60' are in low pressure.

En effet, sur le flasque 21, l'augmentation de la surface de la zone 34, correspondant à une diminution de la surface des secteurs 60 et 60', n'entraîne aucune variation de la force de compensation hydrostatique axiale.Indeed, on the flange 21, the increase in the area of the area 34, corresponding to a decrease in the area of the sectors 60 and 60 ′, does not cause any variation in the axial hydrostatic compensation force.

Au contraire, sur le flasque opposé 22, la surface de ses secteurs 60 et 60' soumis à la basse pression ayant diminué et la surface de la zone 34 toujours en haute pression ayant augmenté, on crée la force antagoniste -FA.

  • si l'on diminue la surface de la zone 34 en augmentant la surface du secteur 60'' de la valeur de l'extension 301 (fig. 7), on crée la force antagoniste -FA sur le flasque 22 dans lequel le secteur 60'' est en haute pression du fait que sur le flasque 21 dans lequel le secteur 60'' est en basse pression, l'extension 301 est en basse pression, de sorte qu'il y a équilibrage.
On the contrary, on the opposite flange 22, the surface of its sectors 60 and 60 'subjected to the low pressure having decreased and the surface of the zone 34 always in high pressure having increased, the opposing force -FA is created.
  • if we decrease the surface of zone 34 by increasing the surface of sector 60 '' by the value of extension 301 (fig. 7), we create the opposing force -FA on the flange 22 in which sector 60 '' is at high pressure because on the flange 21 in which the sector 60 '' is at low pressure, the extension 301 is at low pressure, so that there is balancing.

Bien entendu, si les pressions dans les sorties 40 sont inversées par rapport aux indications de fig. 7, le raisonnement est le même du fait de la symétrie par rapport au point d'engrènement des pignons 9, 10.Of course, if the pressures in the outlets 40 are reversed relative to the indications in FIG. 7, the reasoning is the same due to the symmetry with respect to the point of engagement of the pinions 9, 10.

L'équilibrage hydrostatique de la force tangentielle FT est réalisé par des moyens illustrés en fig. 10, 11 et 12.The hydrostatic balancing of the tangential force FT is carried out by means illustrated in FIG. 10, 11 and 12.

Les moyens précités consistent tout d'abord, comme montré en fig. 10, à supprimer la zone 34 entre les secteurs 38' et 38 adjacents au point d'engrènement 3 des pignons au niveau des rayons 305 et 306 du pignon 9 perpendiculaire à l'axe 6-6. Les joints 37' et 37 prévus dans le mode d'exécution de fig. 9 du brevet européen 0483029 sont remplacés par un joint unique 304 pourvu d'une branche médiane 304a. Cette branche médiane est située suivant les rayons 305 et 306 illustrés en fig. 11, comme expliqué plus loin.The aforementioned means consist first of all, as shown in FIG. 10, to delete the zone 34 between the sectors 38 ′ and 38 adjacent to the point of engagement 3 of the pinions at the level of the spokes 305 and 306 of the pinion 9 perpendicular to the axis 6-6. The seals 37 'and 37 provided in the embodiment of fig. 9 of European patent 0483029 are replaced by a single joint 304 provided with a middle branch 304 a . This middle branch is located along departments 305 and 306 illustrated in fig. 11, as explained below.

La modification ci-dessus nécessite de supprimer la partie de la zone 34 entre les secteurs 60', 60 respectivement 60", 60 des flasques 21, 22 (fig. 11) au niveau des rayons 305 et 306, si bien que pour chacun desdits rayons, les parties radiales 45a, 45'a des joints 45 et 45' (fig. 8) et les parties radiales 45a et 45"a des joints 45 et 45" symétriques des précédents par rapport à l'axe géométrique 6-6 sont éliminées sans influencer aucunement l'équilibrage axial.The above modification requires deleting the part of the zone 34 between the sectors 60 ', 60 respectively 60 ", 60 of the flanges 21, 22 (fig. 11) at the level of the spokes 305 and 306, so that for each of the said rays, radial portions 45a, 45'a of the joints 45 and 45 '(fig. 8) and the radial portions 45 a and 45 "has seals 45 and 45' symmetrical to the previous relative to the geometric axis 6-6 are eliminated without affecting the axial balancing in any way.

Comme illustré en fig. 11, les secteurs 60', 60 et 60", 60 sont entourés par des joints 302 et 303 d'une seule pièce qui comportent chacun respectivement, suivant les rayons 305 et 306 une branche 302a, respectivement 303a qui sépare les secteurs considérés.As illustrated in fig. 11, the sectors 60 ′, 60 and 60 ″, 60 are surrounded by joints 302 and 303 in one piece which each have, respectively, along the spokes 305 and 306 a branch 302 a , respectively 303 a which separates the sectors considered .

La branche 304a du joint 304 sur l'enveloppe 36 matérialisant l'extrémité de la partie de la zone 34 incorporée aux secteurs 38' pour l'équilibrage de la force FT, se trouve à 1 4

+ ε. La valeur Π Z
Figure imgb0008
+ ε incorporée aux secteurs 38' du côté du pignon menant 9 doit être calculée pour équilibrer FT, en tenant compte du décalage introduit par la largeur du joint. Les valeurs sur les flasques 21, 22 doivent correspondre aux valeurs sur l'enveloppe 36 pour assurer l'étanchéité sur les faces. Ces dispositions permettent l'équilibrage partiel de la force FT (à cause de la largeur des joints) avec réversibilité totale en sens de rotation S.H. et S.I.H., en générateur et en récepteur. L'équilibrage parfait de la force tangentielle FT ne pourra être réalisé qu'avec un sens prioritaire de rotation S.H. ou S.I.H., en générateur et en récepteur du fait de la largeur des joints. Toutefois ce léger déséquilibre peut être considéré comme négligeable.The branch 304 has seal 304 on the casing 36 materializing the end of the part of the zone 34 incorporated into the sectors 38 ′ for balancing the force FT, is located at 1 4

. Therefore, the FT component is balanced by this additional sector 38 'which is at high pressure for a value slightly higher than Π Z
Figure imgb0007
+ ε. The value Π Z
Figure imgb0008
+ ε incorporated into sectors 38 'on the side of the driving pinion 9 must be calculated to balance FT, taking into account the offset introduced by the width of the joint. The values on the flanges 21, 22 must correspond to the values on the casing 36 to ensure sealing on the faces. These provisions allow partial balancing of the FT force (because of the width of the joints) with total reversibility in the direction of rotation SH and SIH, in generator and in receiver. Perfect balancing of the tangential force FT can only be achieved with a priority direction of rotation SH or SIH, in generator and receiver due to the width of the joints. However, this slight imbalance can be considered negligible.

En denture chevrons, la force tangentielle FT est équilibrée dans les mêmes conditions que pour une denture hélicoïdale, la seule différence étant que le joint 304 présente alors, comme les secteurs 38 et 38', une forme en chevrons.In herringbone toothing, the tangential force FT is balanced under the same conditions as for a helical toothing, the only difference being that the joint 304 then has, like the sectors 38 and 38 ', a herringbone shape.

Dans le cas d'un générateur-récepteur à n pignons satellites menés, les forces tangentielles FT s'équilibrent naturellement (polygone des forces FT fermé).In the case of a generator-receiver with n driven planet gears, the tangential forces FT naturally balance each other (closed force forces polygon).

Les dispositions d'équilibrage ci-dessus sont illustrées en ce qui concerne les générateurs-récepteurs à denture à chevrons et à un seul pignon satellite mené en fig. 13. On y a montré le pignon menant 9c et un pignon satellite 10c dans le corps 49c, les forces FT par branche de chevrons à équilibrer (équilibrage hydrostatique ou réactions des paliers 123), et le polygone des vecteurs couple MFA fermé, on observe que les composantes axiales par branche de chevrons s'annulent (FA - FA = 0).The balancing arrangements above are illustrated with regard to herringbone toothing generators and receivers with a single satellite pinion driven in FIG. 13. We showed there the driving pinion 9 c and a satellite pinion 10 c in the body 49 c , the forces FT by branch of rafters to be balanced (hydrostatic balancing or reactions of the bearings 123), and the polygon of the vectors vectors MFA closed , we observe that the axial components by rafter branch cancel each other out (FA - FA = 0).

Les mêmes dispositions d'équilibrage ci-dessus sont illustrées en ce qui concerne les générateurs-récepteurs à n pignons satellites menés sur les fig. 14, 15 et 16 sur lesquels ils sont schématisés par le corps 49 et les pignons 9 et 10.The same balancing arrangements above are illustrated with regard to the generator-receivers with n planet gears driven in FIGS. 14, 15 and 16 on which they are shown diagrammatically by the body 49 and the pinions 9 and 10.

En fig. 14, on a affaire à un pignon 9' et à deux pignons satellites 10' dans un corps 49' . Le polygone des forces FT est fermé, le polygone des vecteurs couple MFA est fermé dans les mêmes conditions. La composante axiale supplémentaire sur le pignon 9' est égale à deux fois FA par couple de pignons 9'-10' .In fig. 14, we are dealing with a pinion 9 'and two planet gears 10' in a body 49 '. The polygon of the forces FT is closed, the polygon of the torque vectors M FA is closed under the same conditions. The additional axial component on the pinion 9 'is equal to twice FA per pair of pinions 9'-10'.

En fig. 15, on a illustré un pignon menant 9'' et trois pignons satellites 10'' dans un corps 49''. Le polygone des forces FT est fermé, de même que le polygone des vecteurs couple MFA dans les mêmes conditions. La composante axiale supplémentaire sur le pignon 9'' est égale dans ce cas à trois fois FA par couple de pignons 9''-10''.In fig. 15, a pinion driving 9 '' and three satellite pinions 10 '' have been illustrated in a body 49 ''. The polygon of forces FT is closed, as is the polygon of the torque vectors M FA under the same conditions. The additional axial component on the pinion 9 '' is in this case equal to three times FA per pair of pinions 9 '' - 10 ''.

Pour fig. 16 qui montre un pignon menant 9''' et quatre pignons satellites 100''' dans un corps 49''', il en va de même, le polygone des forces FT est fermé, le polygone des vecteurs couple MFA est fermé dans les mêmes conditions et la composante axiale supplémentaire sur le pignon 9''' est égale à quatre fois FA par couple de pignons 9'''-10''' .For fig. 16 which shows a pinion driving 9 '''and four satellite pinions 100''' in a body 49 ''', the same goes, the polygon of the forces FT is closed, the polygon of the torque vectors M FA is closed in the same conditions and the additional axial component on the pinion 9 '''is equal to four times FA per pair of pinions 9''' - 10 '''.

En conclusion et compte tenu des possibilités d'équilibrage ci-dessus, on peut adopter :

  • pour les grandes vitesses de rotation et en petites cylindrées un générateur-récepteur hydraulique avec un seul pignon satellite et une denture chevrons,
  • pour les vitesses de rotation moyennes et faibles avec des moyennes et des grosses cylindées, un générateur hydraulique avec plusieurs pignons satellites menés n avec l'équilibrage de la force axiale du pignon menant 9.
In conclusion and taking into account the balancing possibilities above, we can adopt:
  • for high rotational speeds and small displacement a hydraulic generator-receiver with a single satellite pinion and a herringbone toothing,
  • for medium and low rotational speeds with medium and large displacements, a hydraulic generator with several satellite pinions driven n with the balancing of the axial force of the driving pinion 9.

Un générateur-récepteur avec un seul pignon satellite mené et à denture hélicoïdale ne sera utilisé que si cette solution présente des avantages économiques certains, car elle est moins rationnelle que les deux précédentes sur le plan fonctionnel. L'équilibrage axial sera nécessaire, l'équilibrage de la force tangentielle dépendra des conditions d'utilisation.A generator-receiver with a single driven satellite gear and helical teeth will only be used if this solution has certain economic advantages, since it is less rational than the previous two in terms of function. Axial balancing will be necessary, balancing the tangential force will depend on the conditions of use.

Il doit d'ailleurs être entendu que la description qui précède n'a été donnée qu'à titre d'exemple et qu'elle ne limite nullement le domaine de l'invention dont on ne sortirait pas en remplaçant les détails d'exécution décrits par tous autres équivalents. Par exemple dans la solution illustrée en fig. 17, le diamètre D de la zone de pression totale permanente 34 est diminué d'une valeur ΔD pour devenir D - ΔD au niveau des secteurs 60'' et 60 opposés l'un à l'autre du côté du pignon menant 9, lesdits secteurs étant disposés sur les flasques 21, 22 tandis que les dimensions desdits secteurs du côté pignon mené 10 restent inchangées La diminution de ΔD donne une surface de la zone 34 diminuée de ΔS de telle sorte que ΔS = FA HP

Figure imgb0009
. Cette disposition entraîne une augmentation de force FA = HP x ΔS sur le flasque où le secteur 60'' est en haute pression qui compense FA car de sens opposé et équilibre le pignon dans le sens axial.It should moreover be understood that the foregoing description has been given only by way of example and that it in no way limits the field of the invention from which one would not depart by replacing the execution details described by all other equivalents. For example in the solution illustrated in fig. 17, the diameter D of the permanent total pressure zone 34 is reduced by a value ΔD to become D - ΔD at the sectors 60 '' and 60 opposite to each other on the side of the driving pinion 9, said sectors being arranged on the flanges 21, 22 while the dimensions of said sectors on the driven pinion side 10 remain unchanged The reduction in ΔD gives an area of the area 34 reduced by ΔS so that ΔS = FA HP
Figure imgb0009
. This arrangement results in an increase in force FA = HP x ΔS on the flange where the sector 60 '' is at high pressure which compensates FA because in the opposite direction and balances the pinion in the axial direction.
