Description
La présente invention concerne un porteur magnétique à aimants permanents, comprenant une partie fixe avec deux pièces polaires symétriques par rapport à un plan- médian vertical, réunies l'une à l'autre par des éléments amagnétiques, et un rotor de forme générale cylindrique monté tournant autour d'un axe horizontal entre les deux pièces polaires de la partie fixe, le rotor comprenant des aimants permanents insérés entre deux pièces en acier doux, et étant déplaçable en rotation entre une position angulaire "marche" et une position angulaire "arrêt" à l'aide d'un dispositif de manoeuvre.The present invention relates to a magnetic carrier with permanent magnets, comprising a fixed part with two pole pieces symmetrical with respect to a vertical median plane, joined to each other by non-magnetic elements, and a rotor of generally cylindrical shape mounted rotating around a horizontal axis between the two pole pieces of the fixed part, the rotor comprising permanent magnets inserted between two pieces of mild steel, and being movable in rotation between an angular position "on" and an angular position "off" using an operating device.
Dans un tel porteur magnétique à aimants permanents, les extrémités inférieures respectives des deux pièces polaires forment, en position "marche", des pôles actifs permettant l'attraction d'objets en matériau ferromagnétique, au travers desquels se referment alors les lignes de force du champ magnétique créé - par les aimants permanents du rotor. Par contre, dans la position "arrêt", ces lignes de force se referment en court-circuit à travers les seules pièces polaires, ce qui rend celles-ci inactives, On réalise ainsi un appareil adapté pour la manutention de pièces métalliques ferromagnétiques permettant la préhension, le déplacement et la pose de telles pièces, cet appareil étant suspendu à un engin de levage pour son utilisation.In such a magnetic carrier with permanent magnets, the respective lower ends of the two pole pieces form, in the "on" position, active poles allowing the attraction of objects made of ferromagnetic material, through which the lines of force of the magnetic field created - by permanent magnets of the rotor. On the other hand, in the "off" position, these lines of force close in short circuit through the pole pieces only, which makes them inactive. This produces an apparatus suitable for handling ferromagnetic metal parts allowing the gripping, moving and installing such parts, this device being suspended from a lifting device for its use.
Bien que des porteurs magnétiques du genre précité soient déjà connus, des raisons économiques conduisent encore aujourd'hui les constructeurs à réaliser plutôt des porteurs magnétiques associant des aimants permanents fixes à des aimants permanents mobiles, ces derniers étant montés dans un rotor. Les réalisations correspondantes restent relativement lourdes et encombrantes. A titre d'exemples de réalisations de ce type, on peut citer les brevets français N° 2523940 et N° 2675299, ou la demande de brevet européen N° 0090746, ou encore la demande de brevet allemand N° 2704118. Les réalisations connues sont généralement entièrement symétriques, par rapport à un plan médian vertical.Although magnetic carriers of the aforementioned kind are already known, economic reasons still lead manufacturers today to produce rather magnetic carriers associating fixed permanent magnets with mobile permanent magnets, the latter being mounted in a rotor. The corresponding embodiments remain relatively heavy and bulky. By way of examples of embodiments of this type, mention may be made of French patents N ° 2523940 and N ° 2675299, or European patent application N ° 0090746, or even the application for German patent N ° 2704118. The known embodiments are generally entirely symmetrical, with respect to a vertical median plane.
La baisse récente du coût de certains aimants permanents à grande énergie volumique, tels que les aimants "Néodyme-Fer-Bore", permet d'envisager des porteurs magnétiques plus simples et plus légers, mais suffisamment puissants, comportant seulement des aimants au rotor, tandis que la partie fixe se limite à deux pièces polaires rapprochées, situées de part et d'autre du rotor et reliées l'une à l'autre par des éléments amagnétiques. Toutefois, si l'on conserve ici les conceptions traditionnelles, l'ensemble s'inscrit dans un volume parallélépipèdique. Ainsi, les pôles actifs respectifs des deux pièces polaires sont relativement rapprochés. Ceci peut s'avérer désavantageux, pour la prise d'objets de relativement grandes dimensions, la base de l'appareil étant de portée trop étroite au regard des exigences de sécurité. De plus, le porteur magnétique lui-même possède une stabilité insuffisante, et il est difficile de le retenir contre l'effet de basculement, notamment lors des manoeuvres de commutation "marche-arrêt" effectuées à l'aide d'un levier d'armement.The recent drop in the cost of certain permanent magnets with high volume energy, such as "Neodymium-Iron-Boron" magnets, makes it possible to envisage simpler and lighter, but sufficiently powerful magnetic carriers, comprising only magnets on the rotor, while the fixed part is limited to two close pole pieces, located on either side of the rotor and connected to each other by non-magnetic elements. However, if we keep the traditional conceptions here, the whole fits into a parallelepiped volume. Thus, the respective active poles of the two pole pieces are relatively close together. This can prove to be disadvantageous for taking objects of relatively large dimensions, the base of the device being too narrow in range with regard to security requirements. In addition, the magnetic carrier itself has insufficient stability, and it is difficult to retain it against the tilting effect, in particular during “on-off” switching maneuvers carried out using a lever. armament.
La présente invention vise à éviter ces inconvénients, en fournissant un porteur magnétique de réalisation simple et économique, mais puissant et adapté pour la manutention d'objets de grandes dimensions, et pouvant être aisément retenu contre l'effet de basculement.The present invention aims to avoid these drawbacks, by providing a magnetic carrier which is simple and economical to produce, but powerful and suitable for handling large objects, and which can be easily retained against the tilting effect.
A cet effet, dans le porteur magnétique à aimants permanents selon l'invention, du genre indiqué en introduction, les deux pièces polaires de la partie fixe vont en s'écartant l'une de l'autre vers le bas, la distance entre leurs extrémités inférieures respectives, constituant en position "marche" des pôles actifs, étant ainsi importante, et le rotor possède une structure dissymétrique, ses deux pièces en acier doux étant inégales.To this end, in the magnetic carrier with permanent magnets according to the invention, of the kind indicated in the introduction, the two pole pieces of the fixed part move away from one another downward, the distance between their respective lower ends, constituting active poles in the "on" position, thus being important, and the rotor has a structure asymmetrical, its two mild steel parts being uneven.
La dissymétrie du rotor permet ainsi de disposer les deux pièces polaires de la partie fixe de manière à augmenter la largeur du porteur magnétique à sa base, ce qui est avantageux pour la prise d'objets de relativement grandes dimensions. Cette configuration améliore aussi la retenue au basculement, lors de la commutation de l'appareil entre les positions "marche" et "arrêt".The asymmetry of the rotor thus makes it possible to arrange the two pole pieces of the fixed part so as to increase the width of the magnetic carrier at its base, which is advantageous for taking objects of relatively large dimensions. This configuration also improves the retention at tilting, when switching the device between the "on" and "off" positions.
Dans une forme de réalisation préférée de l'invention, les deux pièces polaires de la partie fixe du porteur magnétique sont réunies l'une à l'autre, à leur sommet et à leur base, par deux plaques de liaison amagnétiques, horizontales, avec une plaque de liaison supérieure de plus petite largeur, et une plaque de liaison inférieure de plus grande largeur. Avantageusement, la partie fixe comprend encore deux flasques de fermeture amagnétiques, de forme trapézoïdale, fixés verticalement contre les deux pièces polaires et les deux plaques de liaison, et portant les paliers du rotor.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the two pole pieces of the fixed part of the magnetic carrier are joined to each other, at their top and at their base, by two non-magnetic, horizontal connection plates, with an upper link plate of smaller width, and a lower link plate of larger width. Advantageously, the fixed part also comprises two non-magnetic closing flanges, of trapezoidal shape, fixed vertically against the two pole pieces and the two connecting plates, and carrying the bearings of the rotor.
L'ensemble du porteur magnétique selon l'invention présente ainsi une forme caractéristique, de section trapézoïdale, à la fois compacte, bien adaptée à la fonction du porteur, et esthétique.The assembly of the magnetic carrier according to the invention thus has a characteristic shape, of trapezoidal section, both compact, well suited to the function of the carrier, and aesthetic.
Selon un autre aspect de l'invention, les deux pièces opposées en acier doux du rotor possèdent des sections inégales, en forme de segments de cercle, l'un relativement grand et l'autre relativement petit. Les aimants permanents, insérés entre ces deux pièces en acier doux, sont avantageusement des aimants du type "terres rares", notamment des aimants "Néodyme-Fer-Bore". On notera aussi que la dissymétrie du rotor à aimants permanents permet le passage de la position "marche" à la position "arrêt", et vice-versa, par une rotation de ce rotor autour de son axe horizontal sur un angle inférieur à 90°, alors que l'angle de commutation est égal à 90° dans les réalisations traditionnelles avec rotor de structure parfaitement symétrique.According to another aspect of the invention, the two opposite mild steel parts of the rotor have unequal sections, in the form of circular segments, one relatively large and the other relatively small. The permanent magnets, inserted between these two mild steel parts, are advantageously magnets of the "rare earth" type, in particular "Neodymium-Iron-Boron" magnets. It will also be noted that the asymmetry of the permanent magnet rotor allows the passage from the "on" position to the "off" position, and vice-versa, by a rotation of this rotor around its horizontal axis by an angle less than 90 °. , while the switching angle is 90 ° in traditional designs with perfectly symmetrical rotor structure.
Selon une caractéristique complémentaire, le dispositif de manoeuvre prévu pour commander la commutation "marche-arrêt" comprend, à l'extérieur de la partie fixe du porteur magnétique, un tube radial avec poignée qui est lié en rotation avec le rotor et dans lequel est montée coulissante une tige-poussoir repoussée vers l'extérieur par un ressort, la tige-poussoir portant un doigt ou une goupille qui traverse au moins une lumière longitudinale du tube précité et qui est engagée dans une partie évidée fixe, de contour circulaire présentant au moins une encoche pour l'indexage du rotor dans sa position angulaire "marche". La partie évidée précitée est, de préférence, une zone évidée dans la face externe de l'un des flasques de fermeture de la partie fixe. Le dispositif de commutation ainsi réalisé est simple et d'un maniement aisé, une simple pression sur l'extrémité de la tige-poussoir permettant de déverrouiller le rotor en position "marche", en dégageant la goupille de l'encoche correspondante, pour le faire tourner vers sa position "arrêt".According to an additional characteristic, the operating device provided for controlling the "on-off" switching comprises, outside the fixed part of the magnetic carrier, a radial tube with handle which is linked in rotation with the rotor and in which is slidingly mounted a push rod pushed outwards by a spring, the push rod carrying a finger or a pin which passes through at least one longitudinal opening of the aforementioned tube and which is engaged in a fixed hollow part, of circular outline having at minus a notch for indexing the rotor in its angular "on" position. The aforementioned recessed part is preferably a recessed area in the external face of one of the closing flanges of the fixed part. The switching device thus produced is simple and easy to handle, a simple pressure on the end of the push rod making it possible to unlock the rotor in the "on" position, by disengaging the pin from the corresponding notch, for the rotate to its "off" position.

Le porteur magnétique représenté au dessin comprend une partie fixe, comprenant deux pièces polaires 1 et 2 et deux plaques de liaison 3 et 4, qui loge un rotor de forme générale cylindrique 5 monté tournant autour d'un axe horizontal 6.The magnetic carrier shown in the drawing comprises a fixed part, comprising two
Comme le montrent plus particulièrement les figures 1 et 2, les deux pièces polaires 1 et 2, réalisées en acier doux, sont disposées symétriquement par rapport à un plan médian vertical 7. Les deux pièces polaires 1 et 2 vont en s'écartant l'une de l'autre vers le bas, leurs parties supérieures 8 étant relativement rapprochées et leurs extrémités inférieures 9, écartées l'une de l'autre, se situant dans un même plan horizontal 10.As shown more particularly in Figures 1 and 2, the two
La plaque de liaison 3 supérieure, rectangulaire et relativement étroite, est soudée en 11 aux parties supérieures 8 respectives des deux pièces polaires 1 et 2. Au milieu de cette plaque de liaison supérieure 3, qui s'étend horizontalement, est fixé un anneau de levage 12.The upper connecting
La plaque de liaison 4 inférieure, rectangulaire et relativement large, est soudée en 13 aux deux pièces polaires 1 et 2, à une faible hauteur au-dessus de leurs extrémités inférieures 9 respectives. Cette plaque de liaison inférieure 4 s'étend horizontalement à une faible hauteur au-dessus du plan horizontal 10.The lower, relatively wide
Les deux plaques de liaison 3 et 4 sont réalisées en acier inoxydable amagnétique.The two connecting
Deux flasques de fermeture trapézoïdaux 14 et 15 aussi réalisés en matériau métallique amagnétique, sont soudés en position verticale de part et d'autre de la partie fixe, contre les deux pièces polaires 1 et 2 et contre les deux plaques de liaison 3 et 4 - voir aussi figures 3 et 4.Two
L'ensemble formé par les pièces polaires 1 et 2, par les plaques de liaison 3 et 4 et par les flasques de fermeture 14 et 15 délimite une cavité, dans laquelle est logé le rotor cylindrique 5. Les faces internes des deux pièces polaires 1 et 2 présentent des zones concaves cylindriques, respectivement 16 et 17, situées en correspondance avec la périphérie du rotor cylindrique 5 et ménageant un entrefer 18.The assembly formed by the
Les deux flasques de fermeture 14 et 15 comportent des bagues respectives 19 et 20, servant de paliers pour le centrage et le guidage en rotation, autour de l'axe horizontal 6, de deux tourillons 21 et 22 prévus aux deux extrémités du rotor 5.The two
Le rotor 5 lui-même comprend une première pièce en acier doux 23 et une deuxième pièce en acier doux 24, entre lesquelles sont insérés des aimants permanents 25. Ce rotor 5 possède une structure dissymétrique : la première pièce en acier doux 23 possède une section en forme de segment de cercle relativement petit, et la deuxième pièce en acier doux 24 possède une section en fomre de segment de cercle relativement grand, pouvant être un peu plus étendu qu'un demi-cercle comme le montrent les figures 1 à 3.The
Les aimants permanents 25, insérés entre les deux pièces opposées en acier doux 23 et 24, sont des aimants du type "terres rares", tels que des aimants Néodyme-Fer-Bore. Le sens d'aimantation de tous ces aimants 25 est orthogonal à l'axe de rotation 6 du rotor 5, de sorte que les lignes de force 26 du champ magnétique créé par ces aimants 25 traversent les deux pièces en acier doux 23 et 24.The
En position "arrêt", comme le montre la figure 1, le rotor 5 est positionné angulairement de telle sorte que sa première pièce en acier doux 23 se situe en haut, tandis que sa deuxième pièce en acier doux 24 se situe en bas, les aimants 25 se trouvant dans un plan horizontal. Les lignes de force 26 du champ magnétique créé par ces aimants 25 se referment alors en "court-circuit" à travers les deux pièces polaires 1 et 2. L'attraction exercée par les extrémités inférieures 9 de ces pièces polaires 1 et 2 est nulle.In the "off" position, as shown in FIG. 1, the
En position "marche", comme le montre la figure 2, le rotor 5 occupe une position angulaire différente, dans laquelle ses aimants 25 se situent dans un plan incliné, formant un angle aigu α par rapport au plan médian vertical 7. La première pièce en acier doux 23 du rotor 5 se situe ainsi en face de la zone concave 16 de la pièce polaire 1, et la deuxième pièce en acier doux 24 du rotor 5 se situe en face de la zone concave 17 de l'autre pièce polaire 2. Les deux pièces polaires 1 et 2 forment ainsi, par leurs extrémités inférieures 9 respectives, deux pôles actifs l'un "Nord" et l'autre "Sud" ; toute pièce 27 en matériau ferromagnétique peut être attirée par ces pôles actifs, les lignes de force 26 se refermant alors par la pièce polaire 1, la pièce attirée 27 et l'autre pièce polaire 2.In the "on" position, as shown in FIG. 2, the
Pour passer de la position "arrêt" à la position "marche", et vice-versa, le porteur magnétique est pourvu d'un dispositif de commutation manuelle désigné dans son ensemble par le repère 28, et montré aux figures 3 et 4.To move from the "off" position to the "on" position, and vice-versa, the magnetic carrier is provided with a manual switching device designated as a whole by the
Sur l'un des tourillons 21 du rotor 5, à l'extérieur de la partie fixe du porteur, est monté un moyeu 29 lié en rotation avec le tourillon 21 par une goupille 30. Le moyeu 29 supporte un tube radial 31, autour duquel est fixée une poignée de manoeuvre 32.On one of the
A l'intérieur du tube 31 est montée coulissante une tige 33, repoussée vers l'extérieur par un ressort 34, l'extrémité extérieure 35 de la tige 33 dépassant légèrement hors du tube 31 pour former un bouton-poussoir. Vers son extrémité intérieure, la tige 33 porte une goupille 36, qui traverse des lumières longitudinales 37 de la paroi du tube 31 et qui est engagée dans une zone évidée 38 de la face externe du flasque de fermeture 14.Inside the
Comme le montre plus particulièrement la figure 4, la zone évidée 38 possède un contour 39 de forme générale circulaire, mais présentant une encoche 40 ménagée dans une position angulaire prédéterminée, correspondant à la position "marche" du rotor 5. L'engagement de la goupille 36 dans l'encoche 40 assure l'indexage du rotor 5 en position "marche". Pour quitter cette position, il convient d'appuyer sur l'extrémité extérieure 35 de la tige 33, pour la faire coulisser à l'encontre de la force du ressort 34, de manière à extraire la goupille 36 de l'encoche 40. Un indexage en position "arrêt" n'est pas prévu, car il s'avère inutile.As shown more particularly in FIG. 4, the
Bien entendu, l'invention ne se limite pas à la seule forme d'exécution de ce porteur magnétique à aimants permanents qui a été décrite ci-dessus, à titre d'exemple ; elle en embrasse, au contraire, toutes les variantes de réalisation et d'application respectant le même principe. C'est ainsi, notamment, que l'on ne s'éloignerait pas du cadre de l'invention par des modifications concernant le détail des formes des diverses pièces du porteur magnétique, ou le type d'aimants incorporés dans le rotor, ou encore la constitution du dispositif de commutation "marche-arrêt".Of course, the invention is not limited to the only embodiment of this magnetic carrier with permanent magnets which has been described above, by way of example; on the contrary, it embraces all of the variant embodiments and applications respecting the same principle. Thus, in particular, that one would not depart from the scope of the invention by modifications concerning the detail of the shapes of the various parts of the magnetic carrier, or the type of magnets incorporated in the rotor, or else the constitution of the "on-off" switching device.
