Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung geht aus von einem Förderaggregat nach der Gattung des Hauptanspruchs.
Es ist schon ein Förderaggregat aus der DE102014209140 A1 bekannt, mit einer Antriebswelle und einem von der Antriebswelle angetriebenen, in einem Pumpenstator drehbar angeordneten Rotor. Die Antriebswelle weist eine mit dem Rotor zusammenwirkende schiefe Gleitebene auf, die den Rotor mit seiner Rotorachse um eine Antriebsachse der Antriebswelle taumeln lässt. Der Rotor hat an seiner der Antriebswelle abgewandten Stirnseite eine Verzahnung, die mit einer an dem Pumpenstator ausgebildeten Verzahnung kämmt. Zwischen der Verzahnung des Rotors und der Verzahnung des Pumpenstators sind Arbeitsräume zum Fördern von Fördermedien gebildet. Die Antriebswelle, der Rotor und der Pumpenstator sind einzelne Pumpenkomponenten, die im gemeinsamen Zusammenwirken bestimmte Eigenschaften wie beispielsweise Fördermenge, Wirkungsgrad und Druckaufbau innerhalb bestimmter Toleranzen zu erfüllen haben. Ob die Pumpenkomponenten gemeinsam diese geforderten Eigenschaften erfüllen können, kann erst am fertigen Produkt, also nach dem vollständigen Zusammenbau des Förderaggregates, in einem Funktionstest getestet werden können.
The invention relates to a conveyor unit according to the type of the main claim.
It is already a conveyor unit from the DE102014209140 A1 known, with a drive shaft and a rotor driven by the drive shaft, rotatably arranged in a pump stator. The drive shaft has an inclined sliding plane which interacts with the rotor and causes the rotor with its rotor axis to wobble around a drive axis of the drive shaft. The rotor has a toothing on its end facing away from the drive shaft, which meshes with a toothing formed on the pump stator. Working spaces for conveying media are formed between the teeth of the rotor and the teeth of the pump stator. The drive shaft, the rotor and the pump stator are individual pump components that work together to achieve certain properties, such as delivery volume, efficiency and pressure build-up, within certain tolerances. Whether the pump components can jointly meet these required properties can only be tested in a functional test on the finished product, i.e. after the delivery unit has been completely assembled.

Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Das erfindungsgemäße Förderaggregat mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Hauptanspruchs hat demgegenüber den Vorteil, dass die Antriebswelle, der Rotor und der Pumpenstator eine Pumpeneinheit bilden, die für sich allein bereits auf die Erfüllung der nötigen Eigenschaften getestet werden kann. Bei diesem Funktionstest wird ein Antrieb eines Prüfstands zum Antrieb der Pumpeneinheit verwendet. Die Pumpeneinheit wird erreicht, indem die Antriebswelle in einer Lagerhülse angeordnet ist, die eine in radialer Richtung bezüglich der Antriebsachse auskragende Schulter aufweist, an der der Pumpenstator mittels von zumindest einem Haltemittel gehalten ist. Erfüllt die Pumpeneinheit die erforderlichen Eigenschaften im Funktionstest nicht, wird die Pumpeneinheit in einem Nachbearbeitungsschritt nachgebessert. Diese Nachbesserung kann sofort nach dem Zusammenbau der Pumpeneinheit und nicht erst nach dem Zusammenbau von Pumpeneinheit und Antrieb, also nicht erst nach Fertigstellung des gesamten Förderaggregates erfolgen. Dadurch werden die Herstellungskosten verringert.The delivery unit according to the invention with the characterizing features of the main claim has the advantage that the drive shaft, the rotor and the pump stator form a pump unit that can be tested for the fulfillment of the necessary properties alone. In this function test, a drive of a test bench is used to drive the pump unit. The pump unit is achieved in that the drive shaft is arranged in a bearing sleeve which has a shoulder which projects in the radial direction with respect to the drive axis has, on which the pump stator is held by means of at least one holding means. If the pump unit does not meet the required properties in the function test, the pump unit is improved in a post-processing step. This rectification can take place immediately after the pump unit has been assembled and not only after the pump unit and drive have been assembled, that is, not only after the entire delivery unit has been completed. This reduces manufacturing costs.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen des im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Förderaggregats möglich.The measures listed in the subclaims allow advantageous developments and improvements of the delivery unit specified in the main claim.

Vorteilhafterweise kann das zumindest eine Haltemittel eine formschlüssige und/oder kraftschlüssige Verbindung zwischen der Schulter der Lagerhülse und dem Pumpenstator erreichen, insbesondere eine Rast-, Klemm-, Press- oder Schraubverbindung.The at least one holding means can advantageously achieve a positive and / or non-positive connection between the shoulder of the bearing sleeve and the pump stator, in particular a snap-in, clamp, press or screw connection.

Nach einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel wird das zumindest eine Haltemittel durch einen umgeformten Ringkragen gebildet, der an der Schulter der Lagerhülse vorgesehen ist und den Pumpenstator hintergreift. Nach einem zweiten Ausführungsbeispiel wird das zumindest eine Haltemittel durch einen Haltering gebildet, der auf der dem Rotor abgewandten Seite des Pumpenstators angeordnet ist und mit Rastmitteln die Schulter der Lagerhülse hintergreift. Nach einem dritten Ausführungsbeispiel kann der Pumpenstator von einem Gehäuse des Förderaggregates gegen die Schulter der Lagerhülse gedrückt werden.According to a first embodiment, the at least one holding means is formed by a deformed ring collar which is provided on the shoulder of the bearing sleeve and engages behind the pump stator. According to a second exemplary embodiment, the at least one holding means is formed by a holding ring which is arranged on the side of the pump stator facing away from the rotor and engages behind the shoulder of the bearing sleeve with latching means. According to a third exemplary embodiment, the pump stator can be pressed against the shoulder of the bearing sleeve by a housing of the delivery unit.

Weiterhin vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Lagerhülse derart am Pumpenstator befestigt ist, dass die Lagerhülse konzentrisch zur Antriebsachse der Antriebswelle angeordnet ist. Auf diese Weise wird eine Ausrichtung bzw. Zentrierung der Bauteile der Pumpeneinheit zueinander erzielt, so dass die Radialkräfte an den drehenden Bauteilen verringert werden können und dadurch der Verschleiß und die durch die interne Leckage resultierende Reduzierung der Pumpeneffizienz minimiert werden kann.It is also advantageous if the bearing sleeve is attached to the pump stator in such a way that the bearing sleeve is arranged concentrically to the drive axis of the drive shaft. In this way, an alignment or centering of the components of the pump unit with respect to one another is achieved, so that the radial forces on the rotating components can be reduced and the wear and the reduction in pump efficiency resulting from the internal leakage can be minimized.

Sehr vorteilhaft ist es, wenn zumindest ein Dichtmittel vorgesehen ist, das einen Spalt zwischen der Lagerhülse und der Antriebswelle abdichtet. Auf diese Weise werden die in Form von rücklaufendem Medium zur Ansaugstelle des Förderaggregates auftretenden internen Verluste zwischen Hochdruckseite und Niederdruckseite verringert und die Pumpeneffizienz erhöht.It is very advantageous if at least one sealant is provided which seals a gap between the bearing sleeve and the drive shaft. In this way, the internal losses between the high-pressure side and the low-pressure side in the form of returning medium to the suction point of the delivery unit are reduced and the pump efficiency is increased.

Des Weiteren vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Lagerhülse drei Stufenabschnitte mit unterschiedlichem Durchmesser aufweist, wobei an den beiden äußeren Stufenabschnitten jeweils ein Gleitlager und an dem mittleren Stufenabschnitt das zumindest eine Dichtmittel vorgesehen ist. Auf diese Weise lässt sich die Lauffläche für das Dichtmittel besonders kostengünstig herstellen.It is also advantageous if the bearing sleeve has three step sections with different diameters, a sliding bearing being provided on each of the two outer step sections and the at least one sealing means being provided on the middle step section. In this way, the tread for the sealant can be produced particularly inexpensively.

Darüber hinaus vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Lagerhülse konisch ausgeführt ist, da dies das Tiefziehen der Lagerhülse vereinfacht. Um trotz der Konizität der Lagerhülse einen in axialer Richtung gesehen konstanten Dichtspalt zu erhalten, muss auch die Antriebswelle in entsprechender Weise konisch ausgeführt sein. Durch den in axialer Richtung gesehen konstanten Dichtspalt wird eine gute Abdichtung erreicht und ein hydrodynamischer Schmierfilm erzeugt.It is also advantageous if the bearing sleeve is conical, since this simplifies the deep-drawing of the bearing sleeve. In order to obtain a constant sealing gap, seen in the axial direction, in spite of the taper of the bearing sleeve, the drive shaft must also be conical in a corresponding manner. Due to the constant sealing gap seen in the axial direction, a good seal is achieved and a hydrodynamic lubricating film is generated.

Vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Lagerhülse aus einem Edelstahl und die Antriebswelle, der Rotor und der Pumpenstator aus einem Kunststoff, insbesondere einem Duroplast, hergestellt sind. Durch diese Materialauswahl ist das Förderaggregat geeignet, wässrige Harnstofflösungen zu fördern.It is advantageous if the bearing sleeve is made of a stainless steel and the drive shaft, the rotor and the pump stator are made of a plastic, in particular a thermoset. This selection of materials makes the conveyor unit suitable for conveying aqueous urea solutions.

Außerdem vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Antriebswelle mit einem drehbar gelagerten Magnetanker gekoppelt ist, der die Antriebswelle ringförmig umgibt und auf der Lagerhülse drehbar gelagert ist. Die Lagerhülse stellt auf diese Weise eine Gleitlagerung für die Antriebswelle und eine Gleitlagerung für den Magnetanker bereit.It is also advantageous if the drive shaft is coupled to a rotatably mounted magnet armature which surrounds the drive shaft in a ring and is rotatably mounted on the bearing sleeve. In this way, the bearing sleeve provides a plain bearing for the drive shaft and a plain bearing for the magnet armature.

Besonders vorteilhaft ist, wenn der Pumpenstator eine dem Rotor zugewandte Oberschicht und eine dem Rotor abgewandte Trägerschicht aufweist, wobei die Oberschicht aus einem Duroplast und die Trägerschicht aus einem Thermoplast hergestellt ist. Durch den flexibleren Kunststoff der Trägerschicht kann sich der Stator besser an den Rotor anpassen, so dass Spalte zwischen den Verzahnungen von Rotor und Pumpenstator verringert werden.It is particularly advantageous if the pump stator has an upper layer facing the rotor and a carrier layer facing away from the rotor, the upper layer being made of a thermosetting plastic and the carrier layer being made of a thermoplastic. Due to the more flexible plastic of the carrier layer, the stator can adapt better to the rotor, so that gaps between the teeth of the rotor and pump stator are reduced.

Auch vorteilhaft ist, wenn die Antriebswelle eine der Lagerhülse zugewandte Oberschicht und eine der Lagerhülse abgewandte Trägerschicht aufweist, wobei die Oberschicht aus einem Duroplast und die Trägerschicht aus einem Thermoplast hergestellt ist. Auf diese Weise wird die Maßhaltigkeit der Antriebswelle verbessert.It is also advantageous if the drive shaft has an upper layer facing the bearing sleeve and a carrier layer facing away from the bearing sleeve, the The top layer is made of a thermosetting plastic and the backing layer is made of a thermoplastic. In this way, the dimensional accuracy of the drive shaft is improved.

Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Fig.1 zeigt eine Schnittansicht eines Förderaggregates mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Pumpeneinheit nach einem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel. Fig. 1 shows a sectional view of a delivery unit with a pump unit according to the invention according to a first embodiment.

Das erfindungsgemäße Förderaggregat dient dem Fördern von fluiden Fördermedien.The delivery unit according to the invention is used to deliver fluid delivery media.

Das Förderaggregat 1 umfasst eine Antriebswelle 2 und einen von der Antriebswelle 2 angetriebenen, in einem Pumpenstator 3 drehbar angeordneten Rotor 4. Die Antriebswelle 2, der Pumpenstator 3 und der Rotor 4 sind beispielsweise aus einem Kunststoff, insbesondere einem Duroplast, hergestellt. Die Antriebswelle 2 weist eine mit dem Rotor 4 zusammenwirkende schiefe Gleitebene 5 auf, die den Rotor 4 mit seiner Rotorachse 6 um eine Antriebsachse 7 der Antriebswelle 2 taumeln lässt. Die schiefe Gleitebene 5 ist beispielsweise an einer Stirnseite eines Schulterabschnittes 10 der Antriebswelle 2 vorgesehen. Der Rotor 4 hat an seiner der Antriebswelle 2 abgewandten Stirnseite eine Verzahnung 11, die mit einer an dem Pumpenstator 3 ausgebildeten Verzahnung 12 kämmt, wobei zwischen der Verzahnung 11 des Rotors 4 und der Verzahnung 12 des Pumpenstators 3 Arbeitsräume zur Förderung des Fördermediums gebildet sind.The conveyor unit 1 comprises a drive shaft 2 and a rotor 4 driven by the drive shaft 2 and rotatably arranged in a pump stator 3. The drive shaft 2, the pump stator 3 and the rotor 4 are made, for example, of a plastic, in particular a thermoset. The drive shaft 2 has an inclined sliding plane 5 which interacts with the rotor 4 and causes the rotor 4 with its rotor axis 6 to wobble around a drive axis 7 of the drive shaft 2. The inclined sliding plane 5 is provided, for example, on an end face of a shoulder section 10 of the drive shaft 2. The rotor 4 has on its end facing away from the drive shaft 2 a toothing 11 which meshes with a toothing 12 formed on the pump stator 3, 3 working spaces for conveying the conveying medium being formed between the toothing 11 of the rotor 4 and the toothing 12 of the pump stator.

Der Pumpenstator 3 kann aus einem einzigen Material hergestellt sein oder alternativ eine dem Rotor 4 zugewandte Oberschicht und eine dem Rotor 4 abgewandte Trägerschicht umfassen, wobei die Oberschicht aus einem Duroplast und die Trägerschicht aus einem Thermoplast hergestellt ist.The pump stator 3 can be made of a single material or alternatively can comprise a top layer facing the rotor 4 and a carrier layer facing away from the rotor 4, the top layer being made of a thermosetting plastic and the carrier layer being made of a thermoplastic.

Weiterhin sind Magnete 14 vorgesehen, mittels denen die Antriebswelle 2 im Zusammenwirken mit einem Magnetfeld einer elektrischen Wicklung 15 eines Stators 16 antreibbar ist. Der Stator 16 ist beispielsweise als Statorblechpaket ausgeführt.Furthermore, magnets 14 are provided, by means of which the drive shaft 2 can be driven in cooperation with a magnetic field of an electrical winding 15 of a stator 16. The stator 16 is designed, for example, as a stator laminated core.

Die Magnete 14 sind an einem um die Antriebsachse 7 drehbar gelagerten Magnetanker 17 vorgesehen, der die Antriebswelle 2 ringförmig umgibt und mit der Antriebswelle 2 mechanisch verbunden ist. Beispielsweise ist der Magnetanker 17 formschlüssig, nach dem Ausführungsbeispiel über eine Verzahnung 18,19, mit dem Magnetanker 17 verbunden. Der Magnetanker 17 weist eine Durchgangsöffnung 22 zum Aufnehmen eines Abschnitts der Antriebswelle 2 auf. In der Durchgangsöffnung 22 ist die Verzahnung 18 ausgebildet ist, die mit der Verzahnung 19 der Antriebswelle 2 mechanisch zusammenwirkt. Die Verzahnung 18,19 ist als Geradverzahnung ausgebildet, beispielsweise als Evolventenverzahnung oder Kreisbogenverzahnung. Dadurch ist die Antriebswelle 2 in axialer Richtung bezüglich der Antriebsachse 7 gegenüber dem Magnetanker 17 verschiebbar, so dass das Gewicht der Magnete 14 über die Stützscheibe 30 auf der Lagerhülse 24 gelagert ist und nicht auf die Antriebswelle 2 wirkt. Der Magnetanker 17 weist einen die Magnete 14 haltenden Magnetträger 20 auf, der aus Kunststoff hergestellt ist und die Magnete 14 in radialer Richtung an der der Antriebswelle 2 zugewandten Innenseite, in Umfangsrichtung zwischen den Magneten 14 und in axialer Richtung an den Stirnseiten umschließt.The magnets 14 are provided on a magnet armature 17 which is rotatably mounted about the drive axis 7 and which surrounds the drive shaft 2 in a ring shape and is mechanically connected to the drive shaft 2. For example, the magnet armature 17 is positively connected to the magnet armature 17, according to the exemplary embodiment via a toothing 18, 19. The magnet armature 17 has a through opening 22 for receiving a section of the drive shaft 2. In the through opening 22, the toothing 18 is formed, which interacts mechanically with the toothing 19 of the drive shaft 2. The teeth 18, 19 are designed as straight teeth, for example as involute teeth or circular arc teeth. As a result, the drive shaft 2 can be displaced in the axial direction with respect to the drive axis 7 with respect to the magnet armature 17, so that the weight of the magnets 14 is supported on the bearing sleeve 24 via the support disk 30 and does not act on the drive shaft 2. The magnet armature 17 has a magnet carrier 20 holding the magnets 14, which is made of plastic and encloses the magnets 14 in the radial direction on the inside facing the drive shaft 2, in the circumferential direction between the magnets 14 and in the axial direction on the end faces.

Der hohlzylinderförmige Magnetanker 17 ist von dem Stator 16 umgeben und in einem ersten, beispielsweise topfförmigen Gehäuseabschnitt 23 angeordnet. Der Stator 16 ist beispielsweise am Außenumfang des ersten Gehäuseabschnitts 23 vorgesehen.The hollow cylindrical magnet armature 17 is surrounded by the stator 16 and arranged in a first, for example pot-shaped, housing section 23. The stator 16 is provided, for example, on the outer circumference of the first housing section 23.

Zur Lagerung der Antriebswelle 2 ist eine Lagerhülse 24 vorgesehen, die in die Durchgangsöffnung 22 des Magnetankers 17 hineinreicht und in der die Antriebswelle 2 drehbar gelagert ist. Die Lagerhülse 24 ist beispielsweise zylinderförmig und/oder blechförmig ausgeführt. Entsprechend ist der Abschnitt der Antriebswelle 2, der in der Lagerhülse 24 gelagert ist, ebenso zylinderförmig ausgebildet. Alternativ kann die die Lagerhülse 24 geringfügig konisch und der entsprechende Abschnitt der Antriebswelle 2 mit gleichem Winkel ebenfalls konisch ausgeführt sein.A bearing sleeve 24 is provided for mounting the drive shaft 2, which extends into the through opening 22 of the magnet armature 17 and in which the drive shaft 2 is rotatably mounted. The bearing sleeve 24 is, for example, cylindrical and / or sheet-shaped. Correspondingly, the section of the drive shaft 2 which is mounted in the bearing sleeve 24 is also cylindrical. Alternatively, the Bearing sleeve 24 is slightly conical and the corresponding section of the drive shaft 2 is also conical at the same angle.

Die Lagerhülse 24 ist aus einem Blech, das beispielsweise aus Edelstahl besteht, hergestellt. Die Antriebswelle 2 steht in axialer Richtung bezüglich der Antriebsachse 7 mit dem Schulterabschnitt 10 aus der Lagerhülse 24 heraus. Die Antriebswelle 2 kann aus einem einzigen Material hergestellt sein oder alternativ eine der Lagerhülse 24 zugewandte Oberschicht und eine der Lagerhülse 24 abgewandte Trägerschicht aufweisen, wobei die Oberschicht aus einem Duroplast und die Trägerschicht aus einem Thermoplast hergestellt ist.The bearing sleeve 24 is made of a sheet metal, which consists for example of stainless steel. The drive shaft 2 projects in the axial direction with respect to the drive axis 7 with the shoulder section 10 from the bearing sleeve 24. The drive shaft 2 can be made from a single material or alternatively can have an upper layer facing the bearing sleeve 24 and a carrier layer facing away from the bearing sleeve 24, the top layer being made of a thermosetting plastic and the carrier layer being made of a thermoplastic.

Zur Lagerung des Magnetankers 17 ist an einer Stirnseite des Magnetankers 17 ein Lagerring 25 befestigt, der einen Hülsenabschnitt 28 und einen in radialer Richtung bezüglich der Antriebsachse 7 auskragenden Scheibenabschnitt 29 aufweist. Der Hülsenabschnitt 28 des Lagerrings 25 ist drehbar auf der Lagerhülse 24 gelagert. Der Scheibenabschnitt 29 des Lagerrings 25 bildet mit einer am Gehäuseabschnitt 23 anliegenden Stützscheibe 30 ein axiales Gleitlager. Die Stützscheibe 30 ist beispielsweise aus Edelstahl und der Lagerring 25 aus hochtemperaturbeständigem thermoplastischen Kunststoff, insbesondere PEEK, hergestellt.To mount the magnet armature 17, a bearing ring 25 is fastened to an end face of the magnet armature 17 and has a sleeve section 28 and a disk section 29 which projects in the radial direction with respect to the drive axis 7. The sleeve section 28 of the bearing ring 25 is rotatably mounted on the bearing sleeve 24. The disk section 29 of the bearing ring 25 forms an axial slide bearing with a support disk 30 resting on the housing section 23. The support disk 30 is made of stainless steel, for example, and the bearing ring 25 is made of high-temperature-resistant thermoplastic, in particular PEEK.
