Description

L'invention concerne une amenée de courant pivotante à forte puissance. L'invention concerne plus exactement une amenée de courant permettant de transmettre une puissance électrique entre deux machines électriques ayant un mouvement relatif de rotation limité l'une par rapport à l'autre.The invention relates to a pivoting power supply to strong power. The invention relates more exactly to a power supply for transmitting power between two electrical machines having a relative rotational movement limited one with respect to the other.

Ce genre d'amenée de courant peut par exemple être utilisée entre un transformateur ou un convertisseur fixe et un moteur électrique disposé dans une nacelle ayant un mouvement de rotation par rapport au transformateur ou au convertisseur fixe.This kind of power supply can for example be used between a transformer or a fixed converter and an electric motor arranged in a nacelle having a rotation with respect to the transformer or fixed converter.

C'est typiquement le cas dans l'alimentation de moteurs marins entraínant les hélices, et disposés dans une nacelle carénée appelé POD disposée sous la coque du navire. La nacelle est montée pivotante sous la coque. Il est donc nécessaire de prévoir une amenée de courant pivotante entre les éléments d'électronique de puissance embarqués dans la coque et le moteur pivotant avec la nacelle.This is typically the case in the diet of marine engines driving the propellers, and arranged in a carinated pod called POD arranged under the hull of the ship. The platform is pivotally mounted under the hull. It is therefore necessary to provide a pivotal current supply between the power electronics elements embedded in the hull and swivel engine with the carrycot.

Il est connu de réaliser ce type d'amenée par des liaisons à contacts tournants bagues/balais.It is known to carry out this type of feed by rotary contacts rings / brushes.

Un des inconvénients de ce type de liaison résulte de la complexité mécanique ainsi que de l'inaccessibilité des montages bagues/balais. Cela induit des temps de maintenance importants. En outre, cette maintenance doit être effectuée de façon régulière et fréquente du fait de l'usure des pièces résultant du contact tournant entre les bagues et les balais.One of the drawbacks of this type of connection results from the mechanical complexity as well as the inaccessibility of assemblies rings / brooms. This induces maintenance times important. In addition, this maintenance must be performed regularly and frequently because of the wear of parts resulting from the rotating contact between the rings and broom.

L'utilisation d'une telle liaison, à des puissances élevées, induit de nouveaux inconvénients tels qu'une densité élevée de courant dans les contacts électriques et une tension élevée dans des pièces ayant un mouvement relatif les unes par rapport aux autres.The use of such a link, to powers high, induces new disadvantages such as high density of current in the electrical contacts and high voltage in moving parts relative to each other.

Une amenée de courant comprenant toutes les caractéristiques du préambule de la revendication 1 est décrite dans le document US3907391.A power supply including all the characteristics of the preamble of claim 1 is described in US3907391.

L'un des buts de la présente invention est de réaliser une amenée de courant pivotante de forte puissance sans contact tournant. One of the aims of the present invention is to realize a high power pivoting power supply without rotating contact.

Un autre but de la présente invention est de réaliser une amenée de courant dont la durée de vie est sensiblement allongée et dont la maintenance est réduite en temps d'immobilisation et en fréquence.Another object of the present invention is to provide a current supply whose life is substantially lengthened and whose maintenance is reduced in time immobilization and frequency.

A cet effet, l'invention concerne une amenée de courant pour convoyer de haut courant sous de haute tension entre un premier appareil électrique et un deuxième appareil électrique mobiles en rotation limitée l'un par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe de rotation définissant un plan de déplacement perpendiculaire. Selon l'invention, l'amenée de courant comprend au moins une liaison électrique souple ayant deux extrémités de connexion électriques, électriquement connectées respectivement à une première plage de raccordement électrique, et à une deuxième plage de raccordement électrique, et
   des éléments de rigidification et de maintien, isolants, solidaires des appareils électriques, pour rigidifier et maintenir les première et deuxième plages de raccordement électrique dans des plans passant par l'axe de rotation et perpendiculaires au plan de déplacement.
To this end, the invention relates to a current supply for conveying high current under high voltage between a first electrical appliance and a second electrical appliance movable in rotation limited with respect to one another about an axis of rotation defining a plane of perpendicular movement. According to the invention, the current supply comprises at least one flexible electrical connection having two electrical connection ends, electrically connected respectively to a first electrical connection pad, and to a second electric padding pad, and
rigidifying and holding elements, insulating, integral with the electrical apparatus, for stiffening and maintaining the first and second electrical connection pads in planes passing through the axis of rotation and perpendicular to the plane of movement.

Dans une forme de réalisation, l'amenée comprend au moins une liaison souple sous forme d'une tresse multi-brin conductrice, chaque extrémité de connexion comprenant une plaque métallique conductrice, électriquement et mécaniquement solidarisée à la plage de raccordement électrique qui lui est associée.In one embodiment, the feed includes less a flexible link in the form of a multi-strand braid conductor, each connection end comprising a conductive metal plate, electrically and mechanically secured to the connection range associated with it.

Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'amenée comprend au moins une liaison souple sous forme d'un clinquant conducteur comprenant une pluralité de lamelles empilées dans une direction appartenant au plan de déplacement, chaque lamelle ayant une longueur telle qu'en position extrême de rotation relative des appareils électrique, les lamelles soient sensiblement parallèles entre elles.In another embodiment, the feed comprises at least one flexible connection in the form of a foil conductor comprising a plurality of stacked lamellae in a direction belonging to the movement plan, each slat having a length such that in position extreme relative rotation of electrical appliances, the lamellae are substantially parallel to each other.

Dans une autre forme de réalisation, l'amenée comprend au moins une liaison souple sous forme d'un clinquant conducteur comprenant une pluralité de lamelles empilées dans une direction appartenant au plan de déplacement, la pluralité de lamelle ayant en position zéro de rotation relative des appareils électrique une forme sinusoïdale dans le plan de déplacement.In another embodiment, the feed comprises at least one flexible connection in the form of a foil conductor comprising a plurality of stacked lamellae in a direction belonging to the movement plan, the a plurality of sipes having a zero rotation position relative electrical apparatus a sinusoidal form in the travel plan.

Dans les deux dernières formes de réalisation, les extrémités de connexion sont formées par les extrémités associées des lamelles, soudées ensemble.In the last two embodiments, the connection ends are formed by the ends associated slats, welded together.

Dans une alternative ou en combinaison avec l'association précédente, les extrémités de connexion sont formées par les extrémités associées des lamelles, rivetées ensemble.In an alternative or in combination with the previous association, the connection ends are formed by the associated ends of the lamellae, riveted together.

L'invention concerne aussi un arrangement de machines électriques comprenant un premier appareil électrique et un deuxième appareil électrique mobiles en rotation limitée l'un par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe de rotation et au moins une amenée de courant entre les deux appareils, selon l'invention l'arrangement comprend une amenée de courant telle que décrite ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a machine arrangement electrical appliances comprising a first electrical appliance and a second rotating mobile electrical apparatus limited relative to each other about an axis of rotation and at least a supply of current between the two devices, according to the invention the arrangement comprises a current supply as described above.

D'autres avantages et caractéristiques de la présente invention résulteront de la description qui va suivre en référence aux dessins dans lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une représentation schématique générale d'un dispositif selon l'invention.
  • Les figures 2A et 2B sont des représentations schématiques respectivement en position sans rotation et en position avec rotation d'un clinquant selon un mode de réalisation de l'invention dit "à angle de rotation faible".
  • La figure 3 est une représentation schématique en position sans rotation d'un clinquant selon un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention dit "à angle de rotation important".
  • Other advantages and features of the present invention will result from the description which follows with reference to the drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a general schematic representation of a device according to the invention.
  • FIGS. 2A and 2B are diagrammatic representations respectively in position without rotation and in position with rotation of a foil according to an embodiment of the invention called "low angle of rotation".
  • Figure 3 is a schematic representation in position without rotation of a foil according to another embodiment of the invention said "large angle of rotation".
  • L'invention concerne une amenée de courant 1 pour convoyer de haut courant sous de haute tension entre un premier appareil électrique 2 et un deuxième appareil électrique 3 mobiles en rotation limitée l'un par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe de rotation 4 définissant un plan de déplacement perpendiculaire D.The invention relates to a current supply 1 for convey high current under high voltage between a first electrical appliance 2 and a second appliance electrical 3 moving in limited rotation one with respect to the other around a rotation axis 4 defining a plane of rotation perpendicular displacement D.

    Selon l'invention l'amenée de courant 1 comprend au moins une liaison électrique souple 6 ayant deux extrémités de connexion électriques 7, électriquement connectées respectivement à une première plage de raccordement électrique 8, et à une deuxième plage de raccordement électrique 9. Ces plages de raccordement électrique 8, 9 sont elles même liées électriquement aux bornes ou barres d'alimentation 15 de la machine à laquelle elles sont associées.According to the invention the current supply 1 comprises at less a flexible electrical connection 6 having two ends electrically connected 7, electrically connected respectively at a first connection range 8, and at a second connection range 9. These electrical connection areas 8, 9 are they themselves electrically connected to the terminals or bars supply 15 of the machine to which they are associated.

    Pour éviter que les plages de raccordement électrique 8, 9 soient mécaniquement fatiguées par la reprise cyclique des forces de rappel induites par la flexion de la ou des liaisons électriques souples 6 lors de la rotation, l'invention propose des éléments de rigidification et de maintien 10, isolants et solidaires des appareils électriques 2, 3.To prevent electrical connection areas 8, 9 are mechanically fatigued by the cyclical recovery restoring forces induced by the bending of the flexible electrical connections 6 during rotation, the invention proposes stiffening and maintaining 10, insulators and solidarity devices electric 2, 3.

    Outre le fait que, par leur matière, les éléments de rigidification et de maintien 10 isolent les différentes amenées entre elles et par rapport aux pièces métalliques des appareils électriques 2, 3, ils ont aussi pour but de rigidifier et maintenir les première et deuxième plages de raccordement électrique 8, 9 dans des plans E, F passant par l'axe de rotation 4 et perpendiculaires au plan de déplacement D.In addition to the fact that, by their material, the elements of stiffening and holding 10 isolate the different brought between them and with respect to the metal parts electrical appliances 2, 3, they are also intended to rigidify and maintain the first and second ranges of electrical connection 8, 9 in planes E, F passing through the axis of rotation 4 and perpendicular to the plane of rotation displacement D.

    Dans le but de diminuer les forces de rappel induites par la flexion de la ou des liaisons électriques souples 6 ou des frottements d'une partie sur l'autre lors de la rotation, l'invention propose différentes possibilités, non limitatives, pour les liaisons électriques souples 6.In order to decrease the induced restoring forces by bending the flexible electrical connection (s) 6 or friction from one part to the other during the rotation, the invention proposes different possibilities, not limiting, for flexible electrical connections 6.

    Dans un premier mode de réalisation non représenté, au moins une liaison souple comprend une tresse multi-brin conductrice, chaque extrémité de connexion comprenant une plaque métallique conductrice, électriquement et mécaniquement solidarisée à la plage de raccordement électrique qui lui est associée.In a first embodiment, not shown, at least one flexible link comprises a multi-strand braid conductor, each connection end comprising a conductive metal plate, electrically and mechanically secured to the connection range associated with it.

    Dans un autre mode de réalisation représenté sur les figures 2A et 2B, la liaison souple 6 comprend un clinquant conducteur 11 comprenant une pluralité de lamelles empilées 12 dans une direction appartenant au plan de déplacement D. Chaque lamelle 12 a une longueur telle qu'en position extrême de rotation relative des appareils électrique 2, 3 (figure 2B), les lamelles 12 sont sensiblement parallèles entre elles. Ce type de clinquant peut être avantageusement utilisé pour des rotations dites "faibles", c'est à dire entre 0 et 180 °.In another embodiment shown on the 2A and 2B, the flexible link 6 includes a foil conductor 11 comprising a plurality of stacked lamellae 12 in a direction belonging to the travel plan D. Each strip 12 has a length such that in position extreme relative rotation of electrical appliances 2, 3 (FIG. 2B), the lamellae 12 are substantially parallel between them. This type of foil can be advantageously used for so-called "weak" rotations, ie between 0 and 180 °.

    Dans un autre mode de réalisation (figure 3), avantageusement utilisé pour des rotations pouvant aller jusqu'à 240°, la liaison souple comprend un clinquant conducteur 13 comprenant une pluralité de lamelles empilées dans une direction appartenant au plan de déplacement, la pluralité de lamelles ayant en position zéro de rotation relative des appareils électrique 2, 3 une forme sinusoïdale dans le plan de déplacement D.In another embodiment (Figure 3), advantageously used for rotations that can go up to 240 °, the flexible link includes a foil conductor 13 comprising a plurality of stacked lamellae in a direction belonging to the movement plan, the a plurality of slats having a zero rotation position relative electrical devices 2, 3 a sinusoidal form in the displacement plan D.

    Dans les deux derniers modes de réalisation, les extrémités de connexion sont formées par les extrémités associées des lamelles soudées ensemble et/ou rivetées ensemble.In the last two embodiments, the connection ends are formed by the ends associated slats welded together and / or riveted together.

    Les extrémités de connexion 7 peuvent en outre constituer les plages de raccordement électrique 8, 9.Connection ends 7 may furthermore constitute the electrical connection pads 8, 9.

    Les exemples représentés sur les figures ne sont pas limitatifs. La caractéristique principale de ces liaisons résulte du fait que, indépendamment de la forme ou du préformage des liaisons, les forces de rappel, induites par la flexion des liaisons électriques souples 6, ou les frottements d'une partie sur l'autre lors de la rotation, sont minimisés.The examples shown in the figures are not limiting. The main characteristic of these links results from the fact that, irrespective of the form or preforming of the links, the restoring forces induced by the flexion of the flexible electrical connections 6, or the friction of one part on the other during the rotation, are minimized.

    L'invention concerne aussi un arrangement de machines électriques comprenant un premier appareil électrique et un deuxième appareil électrique mobiles en rotation limitée l'un par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe de rotation et au moins une amenée de courant ci-dessus décrite.The invention also relates to a machine arrangement electrical appliances comprising a first electrical appliance and a second rotating mobile electrical apparatus limited relative to each other about an axis of rotation and at minus a current supply described above.

    Bien entendu, l'invention n'est pas limitée aux modes de réalisation décrits, mais elle est susceptible de nombreuses variantes accessibles à l'homme du métier sans que l'on s'écarte de l'invention. En particulier, le nombre de liaisons souples par amenée, les différents types de liaisons souples d'une même amenée etc.. peuvent varier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention. De même la forme générale, le preformage, et les materiaux des clinquants et des tresses peuvent varier sans sortir du cadre de l'invention.Of course, the invention is not limited to the modes described, but it is likely to numerous variants accessible to those skilled in the art without that one deviates from the invention. In particular, the number flexible connections by supply, the different types of flexible connections of the same feed etc. can vary without depart from the scope of the invention. Similarly the general form, preforming, and the materials of foils and braids can vary without departing from the scope of the invention.
