Eine erste Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, einen Antrieb mit Linearmotor anzugeben, welcher Antrieb ebenfalls eine Bremsfunktion ausführt. Eine zweite Aufgabe dieser Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren zum Betrieb dieses Antriebs anzugeben. Eine dritte Aufgabe dieser Erfindung ist es, einen Aufzug mit einem solchen Antrieb anzugeben.A first object of the present invention is to provide a drive with a linear motor, which drive also performs a braking function. A second object of this invention is to provide a method of operating this drive. A third object of this invention is to provide an elevator with such a drive.
Diese Aufgaben werden durch die Erfindung gemäss der Definition der unabhängigen Patentansprüche gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale der Erfindung werden in den abhängigen Patentansprüchen definiert.These objects are achieved by the invention according to the definition of the independent patent claims. Further advantageous features of the invention are defined in the dependent claims.
Der Antrieb wird durch eine Gesamtnormalkraft geführt bzw. gebremst, die sich aus der anziehenden Normalkraft zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil abzüglich der kompensierenden Normalkraft des Kompensationsmittels zusammensetzt. Die Erfindung nutzt die bei Linearantrieben vorhandene grosse anziehende Normalkraft aus, um so eine Bremsfunktion des Antriebs zu erzielen. Zum gezielten Verändern Gesamtnormalkraft erfolgt a) ein Hin- bzw. Herbewegen der Primärteile bezüglich des Sekundärteils über Stellglieder um eine Breite von Luftspalten zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil zu varieren bzw. b) vorteilhafterweise ein Aktivieren bzw. Desaktivieren des Linearmotors. Die Breite der Luftspalte wird entlang der Wirkungsrichtung quer zur Bewegungsrichtung des Antriebs ermittelt. Dabei werden die folgenden vier Betriebsmodi unterschieden:
- In einem ersten Betriebsmodus ist der Linearmotor desaktiviert und einzig die kompensierende Normalkraft des Kompensationsmittels die Primärteile vom Sekundärteil beabstandet, was den Antrieb haltend führt. Die Breite der Luftspalte ist frei wählbar maximal bzw. minimal eingestellt.
- In einem zweiten Betriebsmodus ist der Linearmotor aktiviert und die Breite der Luftspalte zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil ist maximal eingestellt. Die anziehende Normalkraft zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil ist dann klein, was den Antrieb haltend führt.
- In einem dritten Betriebsmodus ist der Linearmotor aktiviert und die Breite der Luftspalte zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil ist minimal eingestellt. Die anziehende Normalkraft zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil ist dann gross, was den Antrieb bremst.
- In einem vierten Betriebsmodus wird das Kompensationsmittel desaktiviert und die Primärteile werden mit der voll anziehenden Normalkraft des Linearmotors gegen das Sekundärteil gedrückt, was den Antrieb im Fang bremst.
- In a first mode of operation of the linear motor is deactivated and only the compensating normal force of the compensation means the primary parts spaced from the secondary part, which keeps the drive holding. The width of the air gaps is freely selectable maximum or minimum set.
- In a second operating mode, the linear motor is activated and the width of the air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part is set at a maximum. The attractive normal force between the primary parts and the secondary part is then small, which keeps the drive holding.
- In a third operating mode, the linear motor is activated and the width of the air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part is set to a minimum. The attractive normal force between the primary parts and the secondary part is then large, which brakes the drive.
- In a fourth operating mode, the compensating means is deactivated and the primary parts are pressed against the secondary part with the fully attractive normal force of the linear motor, which brakes the drive in the catch.
Der Aufzug weist mindestens eine Kabine zum Verfahren von Personen bzw. Gütern mit diesem Antrieb auf. Der Antrieb besteht vorteilhafterweise aus mehreren, in Reihe geschalteten Linearmotoren. Antriebe mit vielfältigen Gesamtleistungen lassen sich somit nach dem Baukastenprinzip mit wenig aufwand und geringen Kosten zusammenstellen. Die Breite der Luftspalte zwischen den Primärteilen und dem Sekundärteil eines jeden Linearmotors wird individuell kontrolliert, so dass unerwünschte, den Linearmotor beschädigende Berührungen der Primärteile mit dem Sekundärteil bzw. Leistungsschwankungen aufgrund von Änderungen der Breite der Luftspalte vermieden werden.The elevator has at least one cabin for moving people or goods with this drive. The drive advantageously consists of several series-connected linear motors. Drives with diverse overall performance can be thus put together according to the modular principle with little effort and low cost. The width of the air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part of each linear motor is individually controlled, so that unwanted, the linear motor damaging contacts of the primary parts with the secondary part or performance variations due to changes in the width of the air gaps can be avoided.

Der Antrieb 10 weist ein Tragmittel 4 auf, welches Tragmittel alle Komponenten des Antriebs mit Ausnahme des Sekundärteils trägt. Gemäss
Der Antrieb 10 wird über mindestens ein Führungselement 6, 6', 7, 7' entlang des Sekundärteils geführt. Gemäss
Der Antrieb 10 weist mindestens ein Kompensationsmittel 5 auf, das mit einer kompensierenden Normalkraft entgegen der anziehenden Normalkaft zwischen jedem der Primärteile und dem Sekundärteil wirkt. Gemäss
Der Antrieb 10 wird über mindestens ein Bremselement 8, 8', 9, 9' am Sekundärteils gehalten und gebremst. Gemäss
Die Exzenterwellen 11, 11', 12, 12' lassen sich mittels mindestens eines Stellglieds 15, 15', 16, 16' in der Ebene XY um eine Stellachse Z drehen. Gemäss
Durch Vor- und Zurückdrehen der Exzenterwellen 11, 11', 12, 12' werden die Primärteile 1, 1', 2, 2' zum Sekundärteil 3 hinbewegt bzw. vom Sekundärteil 3 wegbewegt. Das Kompensationsmittel 5 wird durch das Vor- und Zurückdrehen der Exzenterwellen jedoch nicht beeinflusst. Das Vor- und Zurückdrehen der Exzenterwellen ist in
Beim Drehen der Exzenterwellen bilden die zweiten Bremshebelenden Fixpunkte, die ihre Entfernung zum Sekundärteil 3 nicht ändern, während die ersten Bremshebelenden, die in den Primärteilen gelagert sind, ihre Entfernung zum Sekundärteil ändern. Mit Bremshebellänge 84 wird die Distanz zwischen den ersten und zweiten Bremshebelenden bezeichnet. Mit Bremslänge 83 wird die Distanz zwischen der Projektion der Bremselemente auf die Verbindende der Bremshebelenden und dem zweiten Bremshebelende bezeichnet. Je nach Grösse des Verhältnisses der Bremshebellänge geteilt durch die Bremslänge werden die Bremselemente mit einem Hebel gegen das Sekundärteil gedrückt. Gemäss
Der Antrieb 10 weist mindestens einen Fangauslöser 4.5, 4.5' auf, der das Kompensationsmittels 5 zumindestens teilweise in den Primärteilen 1, 1, 2, 2' festhält. Der Fangauslöser ist in zwei Stellungen bringbar. In einer Normalbetriebsstellung ist das Kompensationsmittel aktiviert und der Fangauslöser hält die Vorspannung des Kompensationsmittels aufrecht. In einer Fangstellung ist das Kompensationsmittel desaktiviert und der Fangauslöser hat die Vorspannung des Kompensationsmittels gelöst. Gemäss
Das Sekundärteil 3 ist mindestens eine Führungsschiene für den Aufzug. Gemäss
Der Aufzug 100 mit Kabine 10 und Gegengewicht 20 gemäss
- Erstens wird durch Anordnung des Antriebs im Gegengewicht das Kabinengewicht um das Eigengewicht des Antriebs reduziert. Dadurch wird ein Antrieb mit entsprechend reduzierter Antriebsleistung benötigt, was kostengünstig ist.
- Zweitens wird durch Verbindung der Kabine mit dem Gegenwicht die vom Antrieb zu verfahrende Last reduziert. Typischerweise lautet die Auslegung des Gegengewichts gleich Kabinenleergewicht plus halbe Nutzlast. Dadurch wird ein Antrieb mit entsprechend reduzierter Antriebsleistung benötigt, was kostengünstig ist.
- First, by placing the counterweight of the drive, the cabin weight is reduced by the weight of the drive. This requires a drive with correspondingly reduced drive power, which is cost-effective.
- Second, connecting the cab to the counterweight reduces the load to be traveled by the operator. Typically, the design of the counterweight is equal to cabin empty weight plus half payload. This requires a drive with correspondingly reduced drive power, which is cost-effective.
Zusätzlich zu diesen Vorteilen der Ausführungsform gemäss
- Nur das Gegengewicht wird mit einer 2:1 Umhängung verfahren, die Kabine wird hingegen mit 1:1 Umhängung verfahren. Das Gegengewicht wird somit nur über die halbe Länge des Schachts verfahren, während die Kabine mit doppelt so hoher Geschwindigkeit wie diejenige des Gegengewichts über die ganze Länge des Schachts verfahren wird. Dadurch wird Sekundärteil mit entsprechend halbierter Länge benötigt, was kostengünstig ist.
- Only the counterweight is moved with a 2: 1 suspension, the cabin, however, is moved with 1: 1 suspension. The counterweight is thus moved only over half the length of the shaft, while the cabin is moved twice as fast as that of the counterweight over the entire length of the shaft. As a result, secondary part is required with correspondingly halved length, which is inexpensive.
Bei Kenntnis der vorliegenden Erfindung ist natürlich auch eine Kombination dieser beiden Ausführungsformen des Aufzugs möglich. Dem Fachmann stehen hier vielfältige Möglichkeiten frei:
- So ist es möglich, einen einzigen Antrieb an der Kabine anzubringen und Kabine und Gegengewicht in 1:1 Umhängung zu verfahren. Dadurch wird nur ein einziger Antrieb mit entsprechen der Umhängung reduzierter Antriebsleistung benötigt, was kostengünstig ist.
- Schliesslich ist es möglich, die Kabine bzw. das Gegengewicht mit höheren Graden der Umhängung wie 4:1 zu verfahren.
- So it is possible to attach a single drive to the cabin and to move the car and counterweight in 1: 1 hanger. As a result, only a single drive with corresponding to the suspension reduced drive power is needed, which is inexpensive.
- Finally, it is possible to move the car or counterweight with higher levels of hitching as 4: 1.

- Method of operating a drive (10) with at least one linear motor, which linear motor comprises a secondary part (3) between a first primary part (1, 1') and a second primary part (2, 2'), wherein the primary parts are separated from the secondary part by air gaps, an attractive normal force acts between each of the primary parts and the secondary part along a direction (Y) of action transverse to the direction (X) of movement of the drive and at least one compensation means (5) acts against this attractive normal force by a compensating normal force, characterised in that the width of air gaps between the primary parts and secondary part is varied by reciprocating movement of the primary parts relative to the secondary part by way of setting elements (15, 15', 16, 16').
- Method according to claim 10, characterised in that in a first operating mode the linear motor is deactivated and solely the compensating normal force of the compensation means spaces the primary parts from the secondary part, which guides the drive in holding manner, and/or that in a second operating mode the linear motor is activated and a width of air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part is set to a maximum, which reduces the attractive normal force between the primary parts and the secondary part and guides the drive in holding manner, and/or that in a third operating mode the linear motor is activated and a width of air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part is set to a minimum, which increases the attractive normal force between the primary parts and secondary part and brakes the drive, and/or that in a fourth operating mode the compensation means is deactivated and the primary parts are pressed by the full attractive normal force of the linear motor against the secondary part, which brakes the drive.
- Lift (100) with at least one cage (20) for moving persons or goods, with a drive (10), which comprises at least one linear motor with a secondary part (3) between a first primary part (1, 1') and a second primary part (2, 2'), wherein the primary parts are separated from the secondary part by air gaps and the drive comprises at least one compensation means (5) which acts by a compensating normal force against an attractive normal force between each of the primary parts and the secondary part, characterised in that the width of the air gaps between the primary parts and the secondary part is variable by reciprocating movement of the primary parts relative to the secondary part by way of setting elements (15, 15', 16, 16').
- Lift according to claim 12, characterised in that the drive drives the cage directly and/or that the drive drives a counterweight (30) directly.
- Lift according to claim 13, characterised in that the cage and the counterweight are connected by way of at least one connecting means (40) and/or that the drive moves the cage or the counterweight with a 2:1 slinging and/or that the drive moves the cage or the counterweight with a 1:1 slinging and/or that the secondary part extends over the entire length of the shaft and/or that the secondary part extends over half the length of the shaft.
