- these stacks of sheets forming each bar are 12 in number, are regularly distributed around the longitudinal axis 16 and are each composed of 17 rectangular sheets joined together with the interposition of an insulating layer.

Description
La présente invention se rapporte au domaine général des transformateurs tournants de type «en U» utilisés pour réaliser un transfert de puissance électrique par induction électromagnétique entre deux éléments.The present invention relates to the general field of "U-shaped" rotary transformers used to achieve an electric power transfer by electromagnetic induction between two elements.
Un transformateur tournant de type « en U» se compose typiquement de deux éléments à géométrie circulaire qui se superposent radialement, à savoir un noyau interne ayant une ou plusieurs gorges annulaires externes dans lesquelles sont logées des bobines toriques et un noyau externe monté autour du noyau interne en lui étant concentrique et ayant une ou plusieurs gorges annulaires internes en regard des gorges externes du noyau interne et dans lesquelles sont logées des bobines toriques. Ces deux éléments à géométrie circulaire sont montés concentriquement de telle manière que l'un des éléments puisse tourner par rapport à l'autre autour d'un axe longitudinal commun.A "U-shaped" rotary transformer typically consists of two radially superimposed circular geometry elements, namely an inner core having one or more outer annular grooves in which toric coils are housed and an outer core mounted around the core internal being concentric with it and having one or more internal annular grooves facing the outer grooves of the inner core and in which are housed toric coils. These two elements with circular geometry are mounted concentrically in such a way that one of the elements can rotate relative to the other around a common longitudinal axis.
Les solutions existantes pour la fabrication d'un tel transformateur tournant de type « en U » consistent à réaliser les noyaux interne et externe à partir d'un matériau de ferrite frittée ou, dans le cas de transformateurs de petites tailles, par usinage de fonte à forte résistivité. Dans le cas du noyau interne, les bobines toriques doivent alors être constituées en les enroulant directement dans les gorges externes de celui-ci. Quant au noyau externe, les bobines toriques sont le plus souvent logées dans les gorges internes par déformation.Existing solutions for the manufacture of such a "U-shaped" rotary transformer consist in producing the inner and outer cores from a sintered ferrite material or, in the case of small size transformers, by machining cast iron high resistivity. In the case of the inner core, the O-coils must then be formed by winding them directly into the outer grooves thereof. As for the outer core, the toroidal coils are most often housed in the internal grooves by deformation.
Une telle architecture de transformateur tournant pose cependant un certain nombre de problèmes. En particulier, dans le cas de bobines toriques présentant une forte section, il n'est pas toujours possible de les déformer pour les loger dans les gorges internes du noyau externe, de sorte qu'il est alors nécessaire de constituer le noyau externe autour de ces bobines. Par ailleurs, les matériaux utilisés (ferrite frittée ou fonte) sont fragiles et ne supportent pas toujours des environnements vibratoires sévères tels qu'on peut les rencontrer notamment dans le domaine de l'aéronautique.Such a rotating transformer architecture, however, poses a number of problems. In particular, in the case of toric coils having a large section, it is not always possible to deform them to accommodate them in the inner grooves of the outer core, so that it is then necessary to form the outer core around these reels. Moreover, the materials used (sintered ferrite or cast iron) are fragile and do not always withstand severe vibration environments such as can be found in particular in the field of aeronautics.
Le document
La présente invention a donc pour but principal de proposer une architecture de noyau magnétique de transformateur tournant qui n'occasionne pas de tels inconvénients.The main object of the present invention is therefore to propose a rotating transformer magnetic core architecture which does not cause such disadvantages.
Ce but est atteint grâce à un noyau magnétique de transformateur tournant, comprenant des barreaux disposés le long d'un axe longitudinal du noyau et au moins deux joues espacées axialement l'une de l'autre et s'étendant radialement depuis les barreaux pour délimiter avec ceux-ci au moins une gorge annulaire dans laquelle une bobine torique est destinée à être logée, et dans lequel, conformément à l'invention, chaque joue est constituée d'un paquet de tôles magnétiques circulaires qui sont disposées radialement et en ce que les barreaux sont constitués chacun d'une pluralité d'empilements de tôles magnétiques, les empilements de tôles formant les barreaux étant disposés axialement et assemblés sur les paquets de tôles circulaires en étant espacés angulairement les uns des autres autour de l'axe longitudinal du noyau.This object is achieved by means of a rotary transformer magnetic core, comprising bars arranged along a longitudinal axis of the core and at least two cheeks spaced axially from one another and extending radially from the bars to delimit with these at least one annular groove in which an O-coil is intended to be housed, and in which, in accordance with the invention, each cheek consists of a bundle of circular magnetic sheets which are arranged radially and in that the bars each consist of a plurality of stacks of magnetic sheets, the stacks of sheets forming the bars being arranged axially and assembled on the packets of circular sheets being spaced angularly from each other around the longitudinal axis of the core .
Le noyau selon l'invention est remarquable en ce qu'il comprend un agencement de tôles magnétiques permettant un cheminement du flux magnétique, d'une part radialement dans les tôles circulaires formant les joues, et d'autre part axialement dans les tôles formant les barreaux. Une telle structure permet ainsi de faciliter l'assemblage et l'industrialisation du transformateur tournant de type « en U », notamment en limitant les outillages de fabrication et les opérations de reprise. En particulier, avec un tel noyau, les bobines toriques peuvent être réalisées et isolées préalablement à la constitution du noyau. Par ailleurs, les pertes par courant de Foucault sont ici minimisées par le feuilletage et l'isolation entre les différentes tôles. De plus, il est possible de créer des points particuliers pour permettre le passage des connexions des bobines du transformateur en pratiquant des ouvertures sur les tôles.The core according to the invention is remarkable in that it comprises an arrangement of magnetic sheets allowing the magnetic flux to travel, firstly radially in the circular sheets forming the cheeks, and secondly axially in the sheets forming the bars. Such a structure thus facilitates the assembly and industrialization of the "U-shaped" rotary transformer, in particular by limiting manufacturing tools and recovery operations. In particular, with such a core, the toroidal coils can be made and isolated prior to the constitution of the core. Furthermore, the eddy current losses are minimized here by the lamination and the insulation between the different sheets. In addition, it is possible to create special points to allow the passage of the transformer coil connections by making openings on the sheets.
Selon une disposition avantageuse, les tôles circulaires formant chaque joue peuvent être segmentées. Une telle segmentation des tôles circulaires permet d'annuler les effets de l'apparition dans chaque tôle circulaire d'une force contre-électromotrice due au champ magnétique qui l'enlace. En effet, la sectorisation des tôles circulaires permet de faire disparaître les courants circulaires induits dus principalement aux lignes de champ alternatif qui enlacent les tôles.According to an advantageous arrangement, the circular sheets forming each cheek may be segmented. Such a segmentation of the circular sheets makes it possible to cancel the effects of the appearance in each circular sheet of a counter-electromotive force due to the magnetic field which embraces it. In fact, the sectoring of the circular sheets makes it possible to eliminate the induced circular currents due mainly to the alternating field lines which enclose the sheets.
Alternativement, toujours pour contrer les effets de l'apparition dans chaque tôle circulaire d'une force contre-électromotrice, les tôles circulaires formant chaque joue peuvent comprendre chacune des entailles radiales formant des chicanes internes permettant d'allonger le parcours des boucles de courant.Alternatively, always to counter the effects of the appearance in each circular sheet of a counter-electromotive force, the circular sheets forming each cheek may each comprise radial notches forming internal baffles for extending the path of the current loops.
Selon une autre disposition avantageuse, les tôles circulaires formant chaque joue peuvent présenter des évidements. La présence de ces évidements permet d'obtenir un gain de masse, une réduction des inductances de fuite et de libérer des passages pour d'éventuelles connexions.According to another advantageous arrangement, the circular sheets forming each cheek may have recesses. The presence of these recesses provides a gain in mass, a reduction of leakage inductances and free passages for possible connections.
Les tôles des empilements formant chaque barreau peuvent être empilées selon des directions radiales. Alternativement, ces tôles peuvent être empilées selon des directions tangentielles.The sheets of the stacks forming each bar can be stacked in radial directions. Alternatively, these sheets can be stacked in tangential directions.
Les paquets de tôles circulaires formant les joues peuvent comprendre des encoches axiales dans lesquelles sont assemblés les empilements de tôles formant les barreaux.The packets of circular sheets forming the cheeks may comprise axial notches in which are assembled the stacks of sheets forming the bars.
Dans ce cas, le noyau peut avantageusement comprendre en outre des cales en matériau amagnétique disposées entre les flancs de chaque empilement de tôles formant les barreaux et les flancs des encoches des paquets de tôles circulaires. La présence de telles cales permet de réduire l'apparition de courants de Foucault dans les joues en réduisant l'entrée d'un flux magnétique selon une direction normale au plan des tôles.In this case, the core may advantageously further comprise shims of non-magnetic material disposed between the flanks of each stack of sheets forming the bars and the sides of the notches of the circular plate packets. The presence of such wedges reduces the appearance of eddy currents in the cheeks by reducing the input of a magnetic flux in a direction normal to the plane of the sheets.
Par ailleurs, le noyau peut avantageusement comprendre en outre une matière isolante disposée dans un fond des encoches des paquets de tôles circulaires. La présence d'une telle matière isolante permet d'éviter que ne se créer un contact électrique entre les segments de tôles circulaires au niveau de la liaison entre les joues et les barreaux du noyau.Furthermore, the core may advantageously furthermore comprise an insulating material arranged in a bottom of the notches of the circular plate packets. The presence of such an insulating material makes it possible to avoid creating an electrical contact between the segments of circular sheets at the level of the connection between the cheeks and the bars of the core.
L'invention a également pour objet un transformateur tournant comprenant un noyau annulaire interne et un noyau annulaire externe montés concentriquement autour d'un axe longitudinal commun de telle manière que l'un des noyaux puisse tourner par rapport à l'autre autour dudit axe longitudinal, au moins l'un des noyaux étant un noyau tel que défini précédemment.The invention also relates to a rotary transformer comprising an inner annular core and an outer annular core concentrically mounted around a common longitudinal axis so that one of the cores can rotate relative to the other about said longitudinal axis at least one of the nuclei being a nucleus as defined above.

Un entrefer radial 26 est ménagé entre le diamètre intérieur du noyau interne 12 et le diamètre extérieur du noyau externe 14 de manière que celle-ci puisse tourner à l'intérieur du noyau interne sans contact physique avec elle.A
Bien entendu, l'invention s'applique également aux transformateurs monophasés tournants dans lesquels les noyaux ne comprennent qu'une seule gorge et deux joues pour y loger une seule bobine torique. De la même manière, l'invention s'applique aux autres transformateurs tournants polyphasés en faisant varier le nombre de gorges et de joues.Of course, the invention also applies to rotary single-phase transformers in which the cores comprise only one groove and two cheeks to accommodate a single toroidal coil. In the same way, the invention applies to other polyphase rotary transformers by varying the number of grooves and cheeks.

De façon plus précise, les paquets de tôles circulaires formant les joues 144 comprennent chacun des encoches axiales 146 dans lesquelles sont assemblés les empilements de tôles formant les barreaux 142.More specifically, the packets of circular
Par ailleurs, dans l'exemple de réalisation des
La
Ici, les joues 144' comprennent également chacun des encoches axiales 146' dans lesquelles sont assemblés les empilements de tôles formant les barreaux 142', ces tôles étant par exemple au nombre de 5 par empilement.Here, the cheeks 144 'also comprise each of the axial notches 146' in which are assembled the stacks of sheets forming the bars 142 ', these sheets being for example 5 in number by stacking.
On notera que les tôles formant les barreaux et les tôles circulaires formant les joues du noyau sont typiquement des tôles magnétiques à grains non orientés qui sont recouvertes d'une couche d'isolant et pressées entre elles pour permettre leur assemblage sous forme de paquets et d'empilements.Note that the plates forming the bars and circular sheets forming the cheeks of the core are typically non-oriented grain magnetic sheets which are covered with a layer of insulation and pressed together to allow their assembly in the form of packets and dies. stacks.
En liaison avec les
En particulier, chaque tôle circulaire des paquets de tôles circulaires formant les joues 144, 144' présente l'inconvénient d'être le siège d'une force contre-électromotrice due au champ magnétique qui l'enlace.In particular, each circular sheet of circular plate
Pour annuler les boucles de courant circulaires induites (boucles de courant ayant pour centre approximatif l'axe longitudinal 16), il est possible, comme représenté sur la
Une telle segmentation des tôles circulaires permet de faire disparaître les boucles de courant circulaires induites. Seuls persistent alors les courants de Foucault qui sont, quant à eux, fortement réduits grâce à la faible épaisseur des tôles.Such a segmentation of the circular sheets makes it possible to eliminate the induced circular current loops. Only then persist the eddy currents which are, for their part, greatly reduced thanks to the small thickness of the sheets.
Une autre solution pour réduire les boucles de courant circulaires induites dans les tôles circulaires formant les joues du noyau magnétique est représentée sur la
Encore une autre solution (non représentée sur les figures) pour réduire les boucles de courant circulaires induites dans les tôles circulaires est d'enrouler les tôles circulaires sous forme de spirale de sorte à éviter la création d'anneaux.Yet another solution (not shown in the figures) for reducing the circular current loops induced in the circular sheets is to wind the circular sheets in the form of a spiral so as to avoid the creation of rings.
Par ailleurs, afin de réduire l'apparition de courants de Foucault dans les tôles circulaires formant les joues 144, 144', il est préférable de réduire au maximum l'entrée du vecteur d'induction magnétique suivant une direction normale au plan des tôles magnétiques.Furthermore, in order to reduce the appearance of eddy currents in the circular sheets forming the
A cet effet, comme représenté sur la
Alternativement, il pourrait être prévu de laisser un espace vide entre les flancs des empilements de tôles formant les barreaux et les flancs des encoches des paquets de tôles circulaires, cet espace vide pouvant être comblé par de la résine.Alternatively, it could be envisaged to leave a gap between the sides of the stacks of sheets forming the bars and the sides of the notches of the circular plate packets, this empty space can be filled with resin.
De plus, lorsque les tôles circulaires des paquets de tôles circulaires formant les joues 144, 144' du noyau magnétique sont segmentées (cas de la
Afin d'éviter un tel phénomène, il est avantageusement prévu de disposer une matière isolante 154 dans le fond des encoches 146 des paquets de tôles circulaires 144 (
Alternativement, la matière isolante pourra être un vernis ou une colle adaptée ou réalisée en créant un espace non conducteur en plaçant des butées empêchant le contact franc entre les empilements de tôles formant les barreaux et les joues.Alternatively, the insulating material may be a varnish or an adhesive adapted or made by creating a non-conductive space by placing stops preventing frank contact between the stacks of sheets forming the bars and cheeks.
Selon encore une autre disposition avantageuse de l'invention représentée sur la
De tels évidements 156 permettent d'obtenir un gain de masse, une réduction des inductances de fuite et libèrent un passage pour d'éventuelles connexions électriques.
