Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einer Stromwendevorrichtung für elektrische Maschinen der im Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 definierten Gattung.The invention relates to a power turning device for Electrical machines in the preamble of claim 1 defined genus.

Solche Stromwendevorrichtungen, wie sie beispielsweise in der DE 40 16 663 C2 beschrieben sind, besitzen üblicherweise einen zylinderförmigen Kommutator, auch Kollektor oder Stromwender genannt, der aus einer Vielzahl von axial ausgerichteten Lamellen zusammengesetzt ist, die gegeneinander isoliert sind und an jeweils einer Windung einer Ankerwicklung angeschlossen sind. Die Ankerwicklung ist in in einem Eisenblechpaket ausgestanzten Ankernuten eines Rotors oder Läufers aufgenommen, der zusammen mit dem Kommutator drehfest auf einer Rotor-, Anker- oder Läuferwelle sitzt, die bei elektrischen Motoren die Abtriebswelle und bei elektrischen Generatoren die Antriebswelle der elektrischen Maschine darstellt. Die Bürsten, als Kohle-, Stromwender-, Kollektor- oder Kommutatorbürsten bezeichnet, sind in sog. Bürstenköchern axial verschieblich aufgenommen und werden durch sog. Bürstenfedern mit ihrer dem Kommutator zugekehrten Andruck- oder Aufpreßfläche auf den Außenmantel des Kommutators aufgepreßt. Die radial ausgerichteten Bürstenköcher sind an einem Bürstenhalter befestigt. Bei rotierendem Kommutator führen die Bürsten je nach Bauart des Bürstenhalters mehr oder weniger große Schwingungen aus, die zu einer nicht unbeträchtlichen Geräuschentwicklung führen. Gleichzeitig wird aber dadurch auch der Stromübergang zwischen Kollektorlamellen und den Bürsten beeinträchtigt, was zu einer höheren Stromdichte an der Übergangsstelle führt, die sich wiederum negativ auf den Verschleiß und die Lebensdauer der Bürsten sowie auf den Wirkungsgrad der Maschine auswirkt.Such power turning devices, such as those in the DE 40 16 663 C2 are described, usually have one cylindrical commutator, also collector or commutator called that of a variety of axially aligned Is composed of slats that are isolated from each other and connected to one turn of an armature winding are. The armature winding is in an iron sheet package punched-out anchor grooves of a rotor or rotor added, which rotates together with the commutator a rotor, armature or rotor shaft that sits at electric motors the output shaft and in electric Generators the drive shaft of the electrical machine represents. The brushes, as coal, commutator, collector or commutator brushes are in so-called brush cases axially displaceable and are so-called. Brush springs with their pressure switch facing the commutator or pressing surface on the outer jacket of the commutator pressed. The radially aligned brush holder is on attached to a brush holder. With rotating commutator Depending on the design of the brush holder, the brushes lead more or less large vibrations that don't result in a inconsiderable noise. At the same time but also the current transfer between collector fins and the brushes impaired, resulting in a higher Current density at the transition point, which in turn leads negative for wear and the life of the brushes as well as the efficiency of the machine.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Die erfindungsgemäße Stromwendevorrichtung hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, daß durch die konkave Ausformung des Kommutators längs seines Außenmantels die Schwingungsamplitude der Bürsten in axialer Richtung erheblich eingeschränkt werden. Dies wird noch dadurch verbessert, wenn gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung der Außenmantel des Kommutators mit einer Rillung oder Riffelung versehen wird, die eine Art Zwangsführung der Bürsten auf der Kommutatoroberfläche bewirkt. Diese Zwangsführung ist optimal, wenn gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung die Aufpreßfläche der Kommutatorbürsten mit einer gleichartigen Rillung oder Riffelung versehen wird, so daß die Bürsten über die beiden nunmehr in Eingriff stehenden Rillungen oder Riffelungen quasi in Umfangsrichtung des Kommutators spurgeführt sind. Bei nicht mit einer Rillung versehenen Bürsten wird sich eine solche Spurführung erst nach kurzem Gebrauch mit dem ersten Abrieb der Bürsten in der Größenordnung der Rillentiefe einstellen. In contrast, the power turning device according to the invention has the advantage that the concave shape of the commutator the vibration amplitude of the brushes along its outer surface be considerably restricted in the axial direction. this will further improved if according to a preferred Embodiment of the invention, the outer jacket of the commutator is provided with scoring or corrugation, which is a kind Forced guidance of the brushes on the commutator surface causes. This forced guidance is optimal if according to a advantageous embodiment of the invention, the pressing surface the commutator brushes with a similar grooving or Corrugation is provided so that the brushes over the two now engaging grooves or corrugations quasi are guided in the circumferential direction of the commutator. With not with grooved brushes will become one Tracking only after a short use with the first abrasion the brushes in the order of the groove depth.

Durch die in den weiteren Ansprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Stromwendevorrichtung möglich.By the measures listed in the other claims are advantageous developments and improvements in Claim 1 specified turning device possible.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die Lamellen des Kommutators schräg zur Kommutatorachse ausgerichtet. Durch dieses Schrägstellen der Kommutatorlamellen wird der Gleitübergang der Bürsten von einer Lamelle zu nächsten verbessert und sog. Lamellensprünge, die aus toleranzbedingten, unterschiedlichen Radialhöhen der Kommutatorlamellen resultieren, abgemildert, wodurch das Schwingungsverhalten der Bürsten in Radialrichtung verbessert wird.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention the slats of the commutator at an angle to the commutator axis aligned. By tilting the Commutator lamellae becomes the sliding transition of the brushes from one slat to the next improved and so-called slat jumps, which from tolerance-dependent, different radial heights of the Commutator lamellae result, softened, which means that Radial vibration behavior of the brushes improved becomes.

Gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist die Aufpreßfläche der Bürsten so ausgebildet, daß ihre axiale Breite von der auflaufenden Kante aus über mindestens einen Teil der in Drehrichtung des Kommutators sich erstreckenden Tiefe der Aufpreßfläche stetig zunimmt. Die auflaufende Kante der Bürste ist die in Drehrichtung des Kommutators vorn liegende Kante der Bürsten. Mit dieser konstruktiven Gestaltung der Bürsten-Aufpreßfläche wird ein ähnlicher Effekt, wie vorstehend beschrieben, erzielt und damit ebenfalls die Schwingung der Bürsten in Radialrichtung gedämpft.According to an advantageous embodiment of the invention the pressing surface of the brushes designed so that their axial Width from the leading edge over at least one Part of the extending in the direction of rotation of the commutator Depth of the press surface increases steadily. The leading edge the brush is the one in the direction of rotation of the commutator at the front lying edge of the brushes. With this constructive Design of the brush press surface becomes a similar one Effect achieved as described above and thus also the vibration of the brushes in the radial direction attenuated.

Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Die in Fig. 1 schematisch dargestellte Stromwendevorrichtung für eine elektrische Maschine umfaßt einen Kommutator 10, der drehfest auf einer hier nicht dargestellten Rotorwelle des Rotors der elektrischen Maschine sitzt, sowie mindestens zwei Bürsten 11 zur Stromführung, die undrehbar im Gehäuse der elektrischen Maschine gehalten sind. Der Kommutator 10 ist aus einer Vielzahl von zur Kommutatorachse 18 axial ausgerichteten, stromleitenden Kommutatorlamellen 12 zusammengesetzt, die in Umfangsrichtung des Kommutators 10 aneinanderliegen und gegeneinander isoliert sind. Die Isolierflächen sind mit 13 bezeichnet. An dem einen Stirnende des Kommutators 10 laufen die Lamellen 12 in Lamellenhaken 14 auf, die zum Anschluß der Rotorwicklung dienen.The power turning device shown schematically in Fig. 1 for an electrical machine comprises a commutator 10 which rotatably on a rotor shaft, not shown here Rotors of the electrical machine sits, as well as at least two Brushes 11 for current supply, which are non-rotatable in the housing electrical machine are held. The commutator 10 is off a plurality of axially to the commutator axis 18 aligned, current-conducting commutator bars 12 composed in the circumferential direction of the commutator 10 lie next to each other and are isolated from each other. The Insulating surfaces are designated 13. At one end of the commutator 10, the slats 12 run in slat hooks 14 on, which are used to connect the rotor winding.

Die Bürsten 11 sind in Bürstenköchern 15 axial verschieblich aufgenommen, wobei die Bürstenköcher 15 an einem im Maschinengehäuse drehfest gehaltenen Bürstenhalter 16 so befestigt sind, daß die Bürsten 11 radial zum Kommutator 10 ausgerichtet sind. Eine hier nicht dargestellte Bürstenfeder, die auf der vom Kommutator 10 abgekehrten Stirnseite der Bürste 11 mit Federdruck aufliegt, preßt die Bürste 11 mit ihrer Aufpreßfläche 111 kraftschlüssig auf den Umfang des Kommutators 10 auf.The brushes 11 are axially displaceable in the brush holder 15 added, the brush holder 15 on an im Machine housing rotatably held brush holder 16 so are attached that the brushes 11 radially to the commutator 10th are aligned. A brush spring, not shown here, that on the face away from the commutator 10 Brush 11 rests with spring pressure, the brush 11 presses with its pressing surface 111 non-positively on the circumference of the Commutator 10 on.

Um die beim Rotieren des Kommutators 10 entstehenden Bürstenschwingungen zu bedämpfen und die Schwingungsamplitude möglichst klein zu halten, ist der Außenmantel des Kommutators 10 nicht zylinderförmig ausgeführt, sondern konkav geformt. Bei dem in Fig. 2 dargestellten Kommutator 10 ist noch zusätzlich der Außenmantel mit einer Riffelung oder Rillung 17 versehen, die in Fig. 4 ausschnittweise vergrößert im Schnitt dargestellt ist. Wie dort zu erkennen ist, ist die Rillung 17 als Geradverzahnung mit symmetrischen Zahnflanken ausgeführt, wobei der Rillenabstand a, also der Abstand zwischen zwei Zahnspitzen, ca. 0,2 - 0,6 mm und die Rillentiefe t, also der Abstand von Zahnspitze und Zahngrund, ca. 0,1 - 0,4 mm beträgt. In Fig. 5 ist ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel für eine Rillung 17 dargestellt. Hier weist die Rillung eine sinusförmige Wellung auf, wobei der Rillenabstand a und Rillentiefe t wie in Fig. 4 bemessen sind.To those that arise when the commutator 10 rotates To dampen brush vibrations and the vibration amplitude The outer casing of the commutator must be kept as small as possible 10 not cylindrical, but concave. The commutator 10 shown in FIG. 2 is still additionally the outer jacket with corrugation or scoring 17 provided, which is enlarged in section in Fig. 4 in section is shown. As can be seen there, the scoring is 17 straight teeth with symmetrical tooth flanks, where the groove spacing a, i.e. the distance between two Tooth tips, approx. 0.2 - 0.6 mm and the groove depth t, i.e. the Distance from tooth tip and tooth base is approx. 0.1 - 0.4 mm. 5 is another embodiment of a Groove 17 shown. Here the scoring shows one sinusoidal corrugation, the groove spacing a and Groove depth t are dimensioned as in Fig. 4.

Wie hier nicht weiter dargestellt ist, ist es vorteilhaft, auch die Aufpreßfläche 111 der Bürsten 11 mit einer solchen Rillung, wie beschrieben, zu versehen, so daß beim kraftschlüssigen Aufpressen der Bürsten 11 auf den Kommuator 10 die an der Aufpreßfläche 111 vorhandene Rillung und die Rillung 17 am Kommutator 10 ineinandergreifen, wodurch die Bürsten 11 über die beiden Rillungen quasi spurgeführt werden und in Richtung der Kommutatorachse 18 nicht nennenswert schwingen können.As is not shown further here, it is advantageous also the pressing surface 111 of the brushes 11 with one Grooving, as described, to be provided so that the force-fitting pressing of the brushes 11 onto the commuator 10 the grooving on the pressing surface 111 and the Groove 17 on the commutator 10 interlock, whereby the Brushes 11 are practically tracked over the two creases and not significant in the direction of the commutator axis 18 can swing.

Bei dem in Fig. 3 dargestellten Kommutator 10 sind die Lamellen 12 nicht wie bei den beiden Kommutatoren 10 in Fig. 1 und 2 parallel zur Kommutatorachse 18 ausgerichtet, sondern unter einem kleinen spitzen Winkel α gegen die Kommutatorachse 18 angestellt, so daß sie zwar wiederum parallel zueinander aber zur Kommutatorachse 18 schräg verlaufen. Durch diese Schrägstellung der Kommutatorlamellen 12 wird der Gleitübergang der Bürsten 11 von einer Lamelle 12 zur nächsten verbessert und sog. Lamellensprünge, die aus toleranzbedingten, unterschiedlichen Radialhöhen der Kommutatorlamellen 12 resultieren, wesentlich abgemildert, was sich günstig auf das Schwingungsverhalten der Bürsten 11 auswirkt.In the commutator 10 shown in FIG Slats 12 are not like the two commutators 10 in FIG. 1 and 2 aligned parallel to the commutator axis 18, but at a small acute angle α against the commutator axis 18 employed, so that they in turn parallel to each other but run obliquely to the commutator axis 18. Through this Inclination of the commutator bars 12 is the Smooth transition of the brushes 11 from one blade 12 to the next improved and so-called different radial heights of the Commutator lamellae 12 result, what is significantly mitigated favorable to the vibration behavior of the brushes 11 effect.

In Fig. 6 - 11 sind verschiedene Ausführungen der Aufpreßfläche 111 der Bürsten 11 dargestellt, wobei die Aufpreßfläche 111 der Querschnittsfläche der Bürsten 11 entspricht. In Fig. 6 ist die Aufpreßfläche 111 elliptisch oder oval, in Fig. 7 trapezförmig und in Fig. 8 keilförmig ausgebildet. In Fig. 9 ist die Aufpreßfläche aus einem ovalen Flächenabschnitt 19 und einem rechteckförmigen Flächenabschnitt 20 zusammengesetzt. In Fig. 10 weist die Aufpreßfläche 111 einen trapezförmigen Flächenabschnitt 21 und einen rechteckförmigen Flächenabschnitt 20 auf, während die Aufpreßfläche 111 in Fig. 11 einen dreieckförmigen Flächenabschnitt 22 und einen rechteckförmigen Flächenabschnitt 20 hat. Der rechteckförmige Flächenabschnitt 20 kann in allen Ausführungsbeispielen auch quadratisch ausgebildet werden. Allen Varianten der Aufpreßfläche 111 der Bürsten 11 ist gemeinsam, daß die axiale Breite der Aufpreßfläche 11, ausgehend von der auflaufenden Kante 24 der Bürsten 11 über mindestens einen Teil der in Drehrichtung des Kommutators 10 sich erstreckenden Tiefe der Aufpreßfläche 111 stetig zunimmt. In Fig. 6 - 11 ist die Drehrichtung des Kommutators 10 durch den Pfeil 23 gekennzeichnet. Die auflaufende Kante 24 der Bürsten 11 ist die in Drehrichtung vordere Kante der Bürsten 11. Auch diese Gestaltung der Aufpreßfläche 111 der Bürsten 11 verbessert das Schwingungsverhalten der Bürsten 11 im Betrieb der elektrischen Maschine.6 - 11 are different versions of the Pressing surface 111 of the brushes 11 shown, the Press-on surface 111 of the cross-sectional area of the brushes 11 equivalent. 6, the pressing surface 111 is elliptical or oval, trapezoidal in Fig. 7 and wedge-shaped in Fig. 8 educated. In Fig. 9 the pressing surface is made of an oval Surface section 19 and a rectangular Surface section 20 composed. In Fig. 10, the Press-on surface 111 a trapezoidal surface section 21 and a rectangular surface section 20, while the Press-on surface 111 in FIG. 11 has a triangular shape Surface section 22 and a rectangular Surface section 20 has. The rectangular area section 20 can also be square in all exemplary embodiments be formed. All variants of the pressing surface 111 of the Brushes 11 have in common that the axial width of the Pressing surface 11, starting from the leading edge 24 of the Brush 11 over at least part of the direction of rotation Commutator 10 extending depth of the pressing surface 111 steadily increasing. 6 - 11 is the direction of rotation of the Commutator 10 marked by arrow 23. The The leading edge 24 of the brushes 11 is in the direction of rotation front edge of the brushes 11. This design of the Press-on surface 111 of the brushes 11 improves this Vibration behavior of the brushes 11 in the operation of the electrical machine.
