Definitions
- Ring cores are widely used in electrical engineering, in particular in coils for increasing the inductance.
- a choke coil whose ohmic resistance is low in comparison to the inductive reactance.
- a toroidal core such as a laminated iron core
- the inductance of such a choke coil is substantially increased (iron chokes). If the iron path is closed, it often receives air gaps to reduce the influence of iron saturation (throttle air gap).
- the magnetization characteristics of coils or inductors can be set to a desired value.
- Such inductors are increasingly used in modern power electronics in the higher power range.
- an application such as the smoothing of pulsating DC, DC filtering, decoupling of systems or for voltage regulator (buck converter, boost converter) may be mentioned.
- Further fields of application for inductors with a toroidal core are short-circuit reactors in an inverter branch or filter throttles.
- different magnetization characteristics as shown by way of example in FIG. 1, can then be set. These magnetization characteristics are then also called hysteresis loops.
- the toroidal core has no air gap.
- the toroid In the hysteresis magnetization characteristic of type b, the toroid has a relatively small air gap, and in the hysteresis magnetization characteristic of type c, the toroid has a very large air gap.
- the air gap of a toroidal core can be concentrated in one place, so that one can see and measure the gap (macroscopic air gap). But it can also be divided over the magnetic circuit or the ring core several small air gaps. Then one speaks of a so-called "microscopic air gap". For this purpose, the effective air gap is distributed over the entire circumference of iron powder cores by admixing non-magnetic substances. Embodiments for a macroscopic and microscopic air gap are shown in FIG. 2.
- a ring band core with a macroscopic air gap usually takes place as follows. First, you wrap a Dynamo sheet on a core, which is removed after the winding process again. Then you cut an air gap in the ring by means of a saw, a laser or a similar tool. Very small gaps can be made with this method, however, difficult and cumbersome, since the air gap width always depends directly on the tool width.
- the object of the invention is to provide a toroidal core, which does not have the disadvantages described above and can be produced more easily and inexpensively. This results in further advantages such as a precise definition of the course of the magnetization characteristic and very low stray fields.
- GB-A-2 133 932 discloses a toroidal core according to the preamble of claim 1.
- the invention is based on the approach to produce the toroidal core from at least two layers of material / layers wound on top of each other, wherein the first layer is of a magnetically and electrically conductive material and the second layer consists of a non-magnetic and non-electrically conductive material.
- a dynamo sheet may be used as the first laminated layer, while paper or film may be used for the second layer.
- the desired magnetization characteristics can be adjusted. For example, when using very thin layer material, such as very thin paper, one obtains only a very slightly sheared characteristic, which corresponds to a very, very small air gap. If the shearing of the characteristic curve is to be greater, a correspondingly thicker, non-conductive layer material can be used.
- toroidal cores Since only one winding process is necessary and no special materials must be used as in previous toroidal cores with microscopic air gap can be produced with conventional materials available on the market ring cores, which have a desired magnetization depending on the choice of materials and in particular the material thicknesses.
- the production of toroidal cores with a very slightly sheared characteristic is easy to perform by using only very thin, non-conductive material. This has the consequence that an inductance with such a toroidal core with very slightly sheared characteristic also has very little stray fields, so that no stray fields occur in very powerful applications in power electronics.
- Such a ring core undergoes no deformation even at high currents / magnetic fields and is therefore also preferably suitable for power electronics.
- FIG. 1 shows three different types of characteristics.
- the characteristic of type a shows a hysteresis loop of an inductance with a toroidal core without an air gap.
- the characteristic is slightly sheared and the toroidal core has a relatively small air gap.
- the characteristic of type c the characteristic is sheared very far and the toroid has a very large air gap.
- Figure 2 shows the basic structure of a toroidal core with a macroscopic air gap - type 1 - and a toroidal core with a microscopic air gap - type 2.
- the ring core of type 1 consists for example of a magnetically and electrically conductive material such as dynamo plate.
- the ring core type 2 is also made of a magnetically and electrically conductive material, which, however, are mixed with non-magnetic substances.
- Figure 3 shows a two-layer, wound toroidal core.
- the first layer or position - solid line - consists here of a dynamo plate and the second layer / layer - dashed line - consists of a magnetically and electrically non-conductive material, such as paper or a film.
- the desired magnetization characteristic can be determined in such a wound toroidal core by the number of windings and by the choice of material and layer thickness. If one chooses a relatively small thickness for the non-conductive material compared to the dynamo sheet, the result is a slightly sheared characteristic, with which an inductance in a toroidal core with a very small air gap can be achieved.
- the magnetization characteristic can also be adjusted by the appropriate choice for the thickness of the conductive material, which always depends on the relation of the layer thicknesses of conductive and non-conductive material.
- the dynamo plate may have a thickness of about 0.05 to 0.6 mm for low frequency applications, eg 50 Hertz. For applications with higher operating frequencies, sheet thicknesses of 0.1 to 0.3 mm can be used. When using the ring core in a short-circuit reactor or in a boost converter, the thickness of 0.23 mm for the material thickness of the dynamo plate is very suitable. For the thickness of the magnetically non-conductive material layer thicknesses of about 0.01 to 0.5 mm come into question. This material thickness reflects the amount of maximum flow of the throttle in the application. For short-circuit reactors, a layer thickness of 0.1 mm is very well suited for the non-conductive material layer.
- Figure 5 shows such a known arrangement in which in addition to the main flow and the leakage flux is applied.
- Magnetic field lines always try to take the easiest route. You should in the drawn geometry ( Figure 5) flow through the legs and the two yokes. However, the magnetic field lines must overcome 4 air gaps (magnetically non-conductive paths). This geometry will easily form stray fields as they represent an alternative to the desired path.
- Figure 4 shows a toroidal core according to the invention and the associated Hauptfluß- or leakage flux distribution. Since the effective air gap is uniformly distributed over the entire circumference in the ring core shown in Figure 4, the magnetic conductivity is homogeneous over the entire magnetic length. There are no distinct barriers, such as a concentrated air gap, in the arrangement shown in FIG.
