Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine technique général des électroaimants, et plus particulièrement au domaine technique des actionneurs électromagnétiques. Ces derniers sont par exemple utilisés pour actionner des vannes hydrauliques ou pneumatiques.The present invention relates to the general technical field of electromagnets, and more particularly to the technical field of electromagnetic actuators. These are for example used to actuate hydraulic or pneumatic valves.
On connaît les actionneurs électromagnétiques comportant une bobine électrique montée dans une culasse magnétique présentant une première partie polaire et une seconde partie polaire, solidaires de la culasse, lesquelles s'étendent chacune au voisinage d'un côté d'un espace libre dans lequel se déplace un noyau magnétique, mobile en translation sous l'effet de l'alimentation électrique de la bobine électrique et de l'apparition d'une polarité magnétique différente aux parties polaires.Electromagnetic actuators are known having an electric coil mounted in a magnetic yoke having a first pole portion and a second pole portion, integral with the yoke, which each extend adjacent a side of a free space in which moves a magnetic core movable in translation under the effect of the power supply of the electric coil and the appearance of a different magnetic polarity to the polar parts.
On connaît par exemple les électroaimants utilisés dans les actionneurs électromagnétiques, lesquels comportent un circuit magnétique discontinu. Les bobines électriques logées dans ce circuit magnétique génèrent un flux magnétique dans un noyau lorsqu'un courant les parcourt. Les noyaux magnétiques servent alors à canaliser le flux magnétique qui forme une boucle magnétique nord/sud. Sous l'effet du flux magnétique, le noyau mobile est alors entraîné vers la position qui favorisera une circulation optimale de ce flux magnétique. On a donc recours à des actionneurs électromagnétiques dans lesquels le noyau magnétique est positionné de façon asymétrique, signifiant que ledit noyau n'est pas dans une position où les flux magnétiques présentent une configuration symétrique. La position stable dans laquelle la configuration du flux magnétique est symétrique correspond à la position dans laquelle se placera le noyau magnétique sous l'effet du champ magnétique. L'apparition du champ magnétique aura donc pour conséquence de déplacer le noyau magnétique et de fournir une force d'actionnement.For example, electromagnets used in electromagnetic actuators, which comprise a discontinuous magnetic circuit, are known. The electrical coils housed in this magnetic circuit generate a magnetic flux in a core when a current flows through them. The magnetic nuclei then serve to channel the magnetic flux that forms a north / south magnetic loop. Under the effect of the magnetic flux, the mobile core is then driven to the position which will promote optimal circulation of this magnetic flux. Electromagnetic actuators are used in which the magnetic core is positioned asymmetrically, meaning that said core is not in a position where the magnetic fluxes have a symmetrical configuration. The stable position in which the configuration of the magnetic flux is symmetrical corresponds to the position in which the magnetic core will be placed under the effect of the magnetic field. The appearance of the magnetic field will therefore result in moving the magnetic core and provide an actuating force.
Dans ce principe de construction, on retrouve toujours des interruptions dans le circuit magnétique, soit pour favoriser le déplacement du noyau magnétique par le biais d'un jeu radial, soit pour ne pas mettre les pôles magnétiques nord et sud de la bobine en court-circuit magnétique.In this principle of construction, there are always interruptions in the magnetic circuit, either to promote the displacement of the magnetic core by means of a radial clearance, or not to put the magnetic poles north and south of the coil in short. magnetic circuit.
La discontinuité du circuit magnétique entre les pôles induit des défauts d'alignement du noyau mobile produisant, de par des forces électromagnétiques radiales, des frottements nuisibles pouvant aller jusqu'à un phénomène appelé "collage magnétique" du noyau mobile. Le document
En outre, pour des électrovannes comportant des noyaux immergés dans un circuit fluide, par exemple liquide, et nécessitant une étanchéité vers l'extérieur, on a recours à des dispositifs interposés entre l'espace libre dans lequel se déplacent le noyau magnétique et la bobine. Ces dispositifs constituent des entrefers nuisibles à la bonne circulation des flux magnétiques. Ces entrefers, réalisés en matériaux amagnétiques, favorisent les inconvénients précités.In addition, for solenoid valves comprising cores immersed in a fluid circuit, for example liquid, and requiring sealing to the outside, devices are used interposed between the free space in which the magnetic core and the coil move. . These devices constitute airgaps harmful to the good circulation of the magnetic fluxes. These air gaps, made of non-magnetic materials, favor the aforementioned drawbacks.
Lors de la fabrication d'actionneurs électromagnétiques, il est donc souvent nécessaire de concevoir des dispositifs pour assurer l'étanchéité de la partie électrique, pour garantir le guidage et la mobilité du noyau et pour éviter des courts-circuits magnétiques. Ces dispositifs constituent des entrefers, notamment radiaux, au niveau du noyau mobile ou des parties polaires magnétiques et ce par l'utilisation d'un matériau amagnétique. De façon connue, un court-circuit magnétique contribuerait à une diminution sensible des performances de l'actionneur électromagnétique.In the manufacture of electromagnetic actuators, it is therefore often necessary to design devices to seal the electrical part, to ensure the guiding and mobility of the core and to avoid magnetic short circuits. These devices constitute air gaps, especially radial, at the mobile core or magnetic polar parts and this by the use of a non-magnetic material. In known manner, a magnetic short circuit would contribute to a significant decrease in the performance of the electromagnetic actuator.
Le but de la présente invention vise à optimiser les performances d'un actionneur électromagnétique tout en réduisant les coûts liés à la construction dudit actionneur, ainsi qu'à la fabrication de ses pièces constitutives. Il est donc recherché de simplifier l'actionneur électromagnétique sans nuire à ses performances.The object of the present invention is to optimize the performance of an electromagnetic actuator while reducing the costs associated with the construction of said actuator, as well as the manufacture of its component parts. It is therefore sought to simplify the electromagnetic actuator without impairing its performance.
Un autre but de la présente invention vise à assurer l'étanchéité entre la partie électrique et la partie hydraulique d'un actionneur électromagnétique avec des moyens simples et peu coûteux.Another object of the present invention is to provide a seal between the electrical part and the hydraulic part of an electromagnetic actuator with simple and inexpensive means.
Selon l'invention, l'actionneur électromagnétique comporte les caractéristiques de la revendication 1. Contrairement aux idées reçues, il est possible d'optimiser, voire d'améliorer, les performances d'un actionneur électromagnétique mettant les deux parties polaires en court-circuit magnétique pour guider le déplacement du noyau mobile et en réduisant l'entrefer radial entre ledit noyau et la ou les partie(s) polaire(s) au jeu fonctionnel minimal, nécessaire au déplacement relatif desdites pièces. La jonction magnétique entre les deux parties polaires n'est donc pas un inconvénient, selon la présente invention.According to the invention, the electromagnetic actuator comprises the features of
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire présente du côté d'une partie polaire un fond constituant une butée pour le noyau magnétique.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular portion has on the side of a polar part a bottom forming a stop for the magnetic core.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire est conformée et/ou positionnée pour réaliser une étanchéité entre l'espace libre et la partie électrique, comportant notamment la bobine électrique. Il est donc possible de supprimer toute partie ou dispositif d'étanchéité spécifique. En outre, on aboutit à une construction simplifiée de l'actionneur conforme à l'invention.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular portion is shaped and / or positioned to provide a seal between the free space and the electrical part, including the electric coil. It is therefore possible to remove any specific part or sealing device. In addition, it leads to a simplified construction of the actuator according to the invention.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire constituant une continuité magnétique entre les deux parties polaires présente au moins localement une paroi de faible épaisseur, choisie pour minimiser les fuites de flux magnétique entre les parties polaires.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular portion constituting a magnetic continuity between the two polar parts has at least locally a thin wall, chosen to minimize leakage of magnetic flux between the polar parts.
L'utilisation d'un court-circuit magnétique permet d'optimiser les performances de l'actionneur électromagnétique conforme à l'invention. Les effets d'un entrefer radial réduit, de par l'utilisation d'une partie tubulaire et magnétique, en continuité magnétique avec les parties polaires, compense largement les inconvénients liés à l'apparition d'un court-circuit magnétique au travers de la partie tubulaire.The use of a magnetic short circuit makes it possible to optimize the performance of the electromagnetic actuator according to the invention. The effects of a radial air gap reduced, by the use of a tubular and magnetic part, magnetic continuity with the polar parts, largely offsets the disadvantages associated with the appearance of a magnetic short circuit through the tubular part.
Le court-circuit magnétique est contrôlé par le choix des dimensions de la section transversale de la partie tubulaire. L'absence de pièces de guidage et d'étanchéité spécifiques permet également d'augmenter la section du noyau mobile, améliorant ainsi les performances de l'actionneur conforme à l'invention. De telles performances remarquables ne pouvaient être obtenues avec des actionneurs électromagnétiques connus. On peut donc envisager, dans le cadre de la présente invention, de diminuer l'encombrement, notamment de la bobine électrique, tout en conservant les performances d'un actionneur électromagnétique connu.The magnetic short circuit is controlled by the choice of dimensions of the cross section of the tubular part. The absence of specific guiding and sealing parts also makes it possible to increase the section of the mobile core, thus improving the performance of the actuator according to the invention. Such remarkable performance could not be achieved with known electromagnetic actuators. It is therefore possible to envisage, in the context of the present invention, to reduce the bulk, in particular of the electric coil, while preserving the performance of a known electromagnetic actuator.
L'utilisation d'un matériau magnétique pour la partie tubulaire est également une solution technique plus économique que l'utilisation d'un matériau amagnétique, car il est désormais possible de faire d'une seule pièce les deux parties polaires et la partie tubulaire qui les séparait.The use of a magnetic material for the tubular part is also a more economical technical solution than the use of a non-magnetic material, since it is now possible to make in one piece the two polar parts and the tubular part which separated them.
En outre, on peut supprimer les bagues de guidage sur le noyau qui étaient nécessaires pour guider précisément le noyau du fait qu'il n'y a plus de défaut d'alignement.In addition, it is possible to remove the guide rings on the core which were necessary to precisely guide the core because there is no more misalignment.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire présente une paroi d'épaisseur constante et faible, par exemple inférieure à quelques dixièmes de millimètres.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular portion has a wall of constant thickness and low, for example less than a few tenths of millimeters.
Selon un autre exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire présente une section transversale réduite sur une portion de sa longueur. À titre d'exemple, la partie tubulaire est constitutive au moins partiellement de la seconde partie polaire, dont une extrémité de liaison comportant la section transversale réduite est solidaire de la première partie polaire.According to another embodiment, the tubular portion has a reduced cross section over a portion of its length. By way of example, the tubular part is at least partially constitutive of the second part polar, whose connecting end having the reduced cross section is integral with the first polar portion.
Selon un exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire est constitutive au moins en partie des deux parties polaires, lesquelles sont séparées par la portion présentant la section transversale réduite. La partie tubulaire est rapportée par exemple sur la culasse magnétique.According to an exemplary embodiment, the tubular portion is at least partly constitutive of the two polar parts, which are separated by the portion having the reduced cross section. The tubular portion is reported for example on the magnetic yoke.
La partie tubulaire peut aussi être rapportée sur la première partie polaire et sur la culasse.The tubular part can also be attached to the first polar part and the cylinder head.
Selon un autre exemple de réalisation, la partie tubulaire est rapportée sur les deux parties polaires, par exemple par soudure, emmanchement ou collage.According to another exemplary embodiment, the tubular part is attached to the two polar parts, for example by welding, fitting or gluing.
L'actionneur électromagnétique conforme à l'invention présente également l'avantage d'une construction mécanique dans laquelle on supprime au mieux les pièces et les éléments mécaniques de liaison intermédiaire, réduisant par la même occasion le défaut de déplacement ou d'alignement entre les pièces. Ceci est particulièrement intéressant lorsqu'il convient d'aligner par exemple deux paliers d'arbre. Cet alignement sera d'autant meilleur que les paliers seront usinés simultanément dans une même pièce par exemple constitutive des deux parties polaires plutôt que dans des pièces séparées et assemblées entre elles.The electromagnetic actuator according to the invention also has the advantage of a mechanical construction in which the parts and the intermediate linkage mechanical elements are best removed, thereby reducing the lack of displacement or alignment between the elements. rooms. This is particularly interesting when it is necessary to align for example two tree bearings. This alignment will be all the better that the bearings will be machined simultaneously in the same room for example constitutive of the two polar parts rather than in separate parts and assembled together.

La partie tubulaire (7), avantageusement constituée du même matériau magnétique que les parties polaires (3) et (4), permet ainsi de ne former plus qu'une seule partie dispensant ainsi d'avoir à créer des moyens de liaison et d'étanchéité indispensables lorsque les éléments sont constitués de matériaux différents.The electromagnetic actuator according to the invention also comprises a tubular part (7) of magnetic material. The tubular portion (7) delimits the free space (5) at least in part and surrounds the magnetic core (6), which for example has a circular cross section.

In addition, the tubular portion (7) has a magnetic continuity with the polar portion (s) (3) and (4) for minimizing the radial gap between the magnetic core (6) and the or magnetic polar portions (3) and (4) by eliminating any misalignment between them. There is therefore, in the actuator according to the invention, a non-magnetic intermediate portion providing a guide interface between the magnetic pole portions (3) and (4) and the magnetic core (6). The tubular part (7), advantageously made of the same magnetic material as the polar parts (3) and (4), thus makes it possible to form only one part thus dispensing with having to create connection means and indispensable sealing when the elements are made of different materials.
