Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Freilaufeinrichtung in einer Startvorrichtung mit einfachen konstruktiven Maßnahmen stabil auszubilden.The invention is based on the object to form a freewheel device in a starting device with simple design measures stable.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß mit den Merkmalen des Anspruches 1 gelöst. Die Unteransprüche geben zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen an.This object is achieved with the features of claim 1. The dependent claims indicate expedient developments.

Die erfindungsgemäße Freilaufeinrichtung wird in Startvorrichtungen für Brennkraftmaschinen eingesetzt, über die die Brennkraftmaschine in einem Fahrzeug gestartet wird. Die Startvorrichtung weist hierfür einen elektrischen Antriebsmotor auf, der eine Ankerwelle antreibt, welche über ein Getriebe mit einer Abtriebswelle verbunden ist, auf der ein Starterritzel aufsitzt. Das Starterritzel wird zum Starten in Eingriff mit einem Zahnkranz an der Brennkraftmaschine gebracht.The freewheel device according to the invention is used in starting devices for internal combustion engines, via which the internal combustion engine is started in a vehicle. The starting device has for this purpose an electric drive motor which drives an armature shaft, which is connected via a transmission with an output shaft on which a starter pinion is seated. The starter pinion is brought to start in engagement with a ring gear on the internal combustion engine.

Ein Abschnitt des Mitnehmers bildet einen Getriebeträger des Getriebes zwischen der Ankerwelle und der Abtriebswelle. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass eine mit der Abtriebswelle verbundene Mitnehmerscheibe und der Getriebeträger, welche beide Bestandteil des Mitnehmers sind, separate Bauteile bilden, die momentenübertragend gekoppelt sind. Der Mitnehmer umfasst somit zumindest zwei separate, unabhängig voneinander ausgebildete Bauteile, die in einer geeigneten Weise miteinander verbunden sind, um die Drehbewegung, welche von der Ankerwelle ausgeht, über das Getriebe und die beiden unmittelbar axial aneinander liegenden Bauteile des Mitnehmers auf die Abtriebswelle zu übertragen. Die Ausführung als unabhängig voneinander ausgeführte Bauteile hat den Vorteil, dass jedes Bauteil, also sowohl der Getriebeträger als auch die Mitnehmerscheibe, in bestmöglicher Weise an den jeweiligen Einsatzzweck angepasst werden können, und zwar sowohl im Hinblick auf die konstruktive Gestalt als auch die Materialwahl. Über die momentenübertragende Kopplung ist sichergestellt, dass die Drehbewegung auf die Abtriebswelle und das Starterritzel übertragen wird.A portion of the driver forms a transmission carrier of the transmission between the armature shaft and the output shaft. According to the invention, it is provided that a driving disk connected to the output shaft and the gear carrier, which are both part of the driver, form separate components which are coupled torque-transmitting. The driver thus comprises at least two separate, independently formed components, which are interconnected in a suitable manner to transmit the rotational movement, which emanates from the armature shaft, via the transmission and the two immediately axially adjacent components of the driver to the output shaft , The design as independently executed components has the advantage that each component, so both the gear carrier and the drive plate, can be adapted in the best possible manner to the particular application, both in terms of the structural design and the choice of material. The moment-transmitting coupling ensures that the rotary motion is transmitted to the output shaft and the starter pinion.

Gemäß bevorzugter Ausführung bestehen der Getriebeträger und die Mitnehmerscheibe aus unterschiedlichen Materialien, um zum einen den Erfordernissen nach ausreichender Festigkeit Rechnung zu tragen und zum andern eine kostengünstige Herstellung und ggf. auch Montage zu ermöglichen. Die Festigkeit jedes Bauteils kann, ebenso wie die Geometrie, an das jeweilige Erfordernis angepasst werden. So ist es beispielsweise vorteilhaft, die Mitnehmerscheibe aus einem hochfesten Material zu fertigen, beispielsweise aus einem Sinterstahl oder aus einem Metall, insbesondere einem Stahl, welcher ggf. im Strangpressverfahren bearbeitet werden kann. Dadurch ist gewährleistet, dass die Mitnehmerscheibe, welche sich üblicherweise über Walzen oder Rollen radial an einem Abschnitt der Abtriebswelle abstützt und ein Moment auf die Abtriebswelle überträgt, mit keilförmigen Ausnehmungen bzw. Keilbahnen ausreichender Festigkeit versehen werden kann, in denen die Rollen bzw. Walzen verstellbar aufgenommen sind.According to a preferred embodiment, the gear carrier and the drive plate made of different materials, on the one hand to meet the requirements for sufficient strength and on the other a cost-effective Production and possibly also to allow assembly. The strength of each component, as well as the geometry, can be adapted to the respective requirement. Thus, it is advantageous, for example, to manufacture the drive plate from a high-strength material, for example from a sintered steel or from a metal, in particular a steel, which can optionally be processed by the extrusion process. This ensures that the drive plate, which is usually supported radially on rollers or rollers on a portion of the output shaft and transmits a torque to the output shaft, can be provided with wedge-shaped recesses or keyways sufficient strength in which the rollers or rollers adjustable are included.

Der Getriebeträger kann dagegen aus einem weniger hochfesten Material bestehen, für das Sintermaterial, Kunststoff oder ggf. auch Metall in Frage kommt.The gear carrier, however, may consist of a less high-strength material, for the sintered material, plastic or possibly also metal comes into question.

Ein weiterer Vorteil der zweigeteilten Ausführung des Mitnehmers liegt darin, dass die Mitnehmerscheibe sowohl für rechts laufende als auch für links laufende Freiläufe ohne Änderung der Geometrie eingesetzt werden kann. Durch eine um 180° verkehrte Einbaulage kann die Freilaufrichtung umgekehrt werden.Another advantage of the two-part design of the driver is that the drive plate for both right-handed and left-running freewheels can be used without changing the geometry. By a wrong 180 ° mounting position, the freewheeling direction can be reversed.

Gemäß einer weiteren zweckmäßigen Ausführung ist vorgesehen, dass der Getriebeträger und die Mitnehmerscheibe drehfest miteinander verbunden sind. Grundsätzlich genügt aber auch eine Kopplung zwischen diesen Bauteilen mit Spiel bzw. einer Torsionsfedermöglichkeit, um das Moment, welches für den Antrieb des Starterritzels erforderlich ist, zu übertragen. Die Verbindung zwischen Getriebeträger und Mitnehmerscheibe erfolgt beispielsweise durch Pressung oder Verzahnung.According to a further advantageous embodiment, it is provided that the gear carrier and the drive plate are rotatably connected to each other. In principle, however, a coupling between these components with play or a Torsionsfedermöglichkeit sufficient to transmit the torque which is required for the drive of the starter pinion. The connection between the gear carrier and drive plate is done for example by pressing or toothing.

Gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführung ist das Getriebe als ein Planetengetriebe ausgebildet, welches ein Sonnenrad umfasst, das drehfest mit der Ankerwelle verbunden ist, sowie Planetenräder auf einem Planetenträger, wobei die Planetenräder mit dem Sonnenrad kämmen. Der Planetenträger wird von dem Getriebeträger des Mitnehmers gebildet. Die Planetenräder sind über Achsbolzen in Bohrungen im Planetenträger aufgenommen. Die Bohrungen können den Planetenträger vollständig durchdringen, wobei der Planetenträger vorzugsweise eine ausreichende Dicke aufweist, um zum einen eine sichere Lagerung der Planetenräder über die Achsbolzen zu gewährleisten und zum andern eine ausreichende Festigkeit zur Aufnahme der entstehenden Kräfte und Momente sicherzustellen. Die Achsbolzen können in die Bohrungen eingepresst werden, was für eine sicher Verbindung von Achsbolzen und Planetenträger eine enge Durchmessertoleranz erfordert. Bei einer Fertigung des Planetenträgers aus Kunststoff, Sinterstahl oder einem geeigneten Metall kann das Einpressen der Achsbolzen in die Bohrungen ohne die Gefahr eines Verziehens des Planetenträgers durchgeführt werden. Die Ausführung als durchgehende Bohrung erlaubt außerdem ein einfacheres Einführen der Achsbolzen.According to a further advantageous embodiment, the transmission is designed as a planetary gear, which includes a sun gear which is rotatably connected to the armature shaft, and planet gears on a planet carrier, wherein the planetary gears mesh with the sun gear. The planet carrier is formed by the transmission carrier of the driver. The planet gears are received via axle bolts in holes in the planet carrier. The holes can completely penetrate the planet carrier, wherein the planet carrier preferably has a sufficient thickness to a safe storage To ensure the planet gears on the axle and on the other hand to ensure sufficient strength to absorb the resulting forces and moments. The axle bolts can be pressed into the holes, which requires a tight diameter tolerance for a safe connection of the axle pin and planet carrier. In a production of the planet carrier made of plastic, sintered steel or a suitable metal, the pressing of the axle can be performed in the holes without the risk of warping the planet carrier. The design as a through hole also allows easier insertion of the axle.

In den Figuren sind gleiche Bauteile mit gleichen Bezugszeichen versehen.In the figures, the same components are provided with the same reference numerals.

In Fig. 1 ist eine Startvorrichtung 1 zum Starten einer Brennkraftmaschine dargestellt. Die Startvorrichtung 1 umfasst eine Ankerwelle 3, welche von einem nicht dargestellten Elektromotor angetrieben wird, und eine Abtriebswelle 4, welche Träger eines Starterritzels 5 ist, das zwischen einer axial zurückgezogenen Position und einer axial vorgerückten Position verstellbar ist, in der das Starterritzel mit einem Zahnkranz einer Brennkraftmaschine in Eingriff steht. Zwischen der Ankerwelle 3 und der Abtriebswelle 4 befindet sich eine Freilaufeinrichtung 2, die sicherstellt, dass nur eine Bewegungsübertragung von der Startvorrichtung 1 auf den Startkranz der Brennkraftmaschine erfolgt, nicht jedoch in Gegenrichtung. Hiermit wird gewährleistet, dass beim Anspringen der Brennkraftmaschine und dem Beschleunigen auf eine höhere Drehzahl als das Starterritzel eine unzulässig hohe Beschleunigung vom Starterkranz auf das Starterritzel verhindert wird.In Fig. 1 a starting device 1 for starting an internal combustion engine is shown. The starting device 1 comprises an armature shaft 3, which is driven by an electric motor, not shown, and an output shaft 4, which is a starter pinion carrier 5, which is adjustable between an axially retracted position and an axially advanced position, in which the starter pinion with a ring gear an internal combustion engine is engaged. There is a freewheel device 2 between the armature shaft 3 and the output shaft 4, which ensures that only a motion transmission from the starting device 1 takes place on the starting ring of the internal combustion engine, but not in the opposite direction. This ensures that when starting the engine and accelerating to a higher speed than the starter pinion an impermissibly high acceleration from the starter ring is prevented on the starter pinion.

Die Freilaufeinrichtung 2 ist über ein Planetengetriebe 6 mit der Ankerwelle 3 verbunden. Das Planetengetriebe 6 umfasst ein Sonnenrad 7, welches auf der Ankerwelle 3 drehfest aufsitzt, sowie mitnehmerseitig mehrere Planetenräder 8, die an Achsbolzen 9 an einem Planetenträger 11 des Mitnehmers 10 gelagert sind und in Eingriff mit dem Sonnenrad 7 stehen.The freewheel device 2 is connected via a planetary gear 6 with the armature shaft 3. The planetary gear 6 comprises a sun gear 7, which rotatably rests on the armature shaft 3, as well as a plurality of planet gears 8 on the driver side, which are mounted on axle pin 9 on a planet carrier 11 of the driver 10 and are in engagement with the sun gear 7.

Der Mitnehmer 10 umfasst zusätzlich zum Plantetenträger 11 auch eine Mitnehmerscheibe 12, über die die Bewegungs- bzw. Momentenübertragung auf die Abtriebswelle 4 erfolgt. Hierzu weist die Mitnehmerscheibe 12, wie Fig. 1 in Verbindung mit Fig. 2 zu entnehmen, eine keilförmige Aufnahmetasche zur Aufnahme einer Walze oder Rolle 14 auf, welche an der Mantelfläche einer Nabe 15 anliegt, die einteilig mit der Abtriebswelle 4 ausgeführt ist. Die Walze bzw. Rolle 14 wird über ein Federelement 16 in die keilförmige Aufnahmetasche in der Mitnehmerscheibe 12 gedrückt.In addition to the planet carrier 11, the driver 10 also includes a drive plate 12, via which the movement or torque transmission to the output shaft 4 takes place. For this purpose, the drive plate 12, as Fig. 1 combined with Fig. 2 can be seen, a wedge-shaped receiving pocket for receiving a roller or roller 14, which abuts the lateral surface of a hub 15 which is integral with the output shaft 4. The roller or roller 14 is pressed by a spring element 16 in the wedge-shaped receiving pocket in the drive plate 12.

Beim Einspurvorgang wird der Mitnehmer 10 über die Ankerwelle 3 und das Plantetengetriebe 6 in Drehbewegung versetzt, die über die Rollen 14, von denen über den Umfang verteilt mehrere in Aufnahmetaschen vorhanden sind, auf die Nabe 15 zum Antrieb der Abtriebswelle 4 übertragen wird. Sobald die Brennkraftmaschine gestartet ist und der Starterkranz an der Brennkraftmaschine eine höhere Drehzahl als das Starterritzel 5 aufweist, werden die Rollen 14 aus den Aufnahmetaschen herausbewegt, wodurch der Kraftübertragungsweg unterbrochen ist.When meshing the driver 10 is rotated via the armature shaft 3 and the planetary gear 6, which is transmitted to the hub 15 for driving the output shaft 4 via the rollers 14, of which distributed over the circumference in receiving pockets are present. Once the internal combustion engine is started and the starter ring on the internal combustion engine has a higher speed than the starter pinion 5, the rollers 14 are moved out of the receiving pockets, whereby the power transmission path is interrupted.

Der Planetenträger 11 und die Mitnehmerscheibe 12 des Mitnehmers 10 sind als zwei separate Bauteile ausgeführt, die unmittelbar stirnseitig aneinander liegen. Planetenträger 11 und Mitnehmerscheibe 12 sind insbesondere drehfest miteinander gekoppelt, beispielsweise durch Pressung oder Verzahnung. Die Mitnehmerscheibe 12 besteht zweckmäßigerweise aus einem hochfesten Material wie beispielsweise Sinterstahl oder einem sonstigen Stahl. Der Planetenträger 11, in den die Bohrungen zur Aufnahme der Achsbolzen 9 eingebracht sind, besteht dagegen aus einem weicheren Material wie z.B. Sintermaterial, Kunststoff oder einem Metall, das das Einpressen der Achsbolzen 9 mit geringer Toleranz erlaubt. Die Bohrungen zur Aufnahme der Achsbolzen 9 erstrecken sich zweckmäßigerweise in Achsrichtung vollständig durch den Planetenträger 11 hindurch.The planet carrier 11 and the drive plate 12 of the driver 10 are designed as two separate components, which lie directly against each other frontally. Planet carrier 11 and drive plate 12 are in particular rotatably coupled to each other, for example by pressing or toothing. The drive plate 12 is suitably made of a high-strength material such as sintered steel or other steel. The planetary carrier 11 into which the bores for receiving the axle bolts 9 are inserted, on the other hand, consists of a softer material, such as e.g. Sintering material, plastic or a metal that allows the pressing of the axle bolt 9 with low tolerance. The bores for receiving the axle bolts 9 expediently extend completely in the axial direction through the planet carrier 11.

Der Mitnehmer 10 mit dem Planetenträger 11 und der Mitnehmerscheibe 12 ist von einer Abdeckhülse 13 überdeckt.The driver 10 with the planet carrier 11 and the drive plate 12 is covered by a cover sleeve 13.
