  • the cooling pipe 7 is welded to the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31, and includes an outward pipe 71 and a return pipe 72 spirally wound in a same winding direction along an inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31.
  • the cooling pipe 7 of the present embodiment is configured using a circular pipe, and includes one outward pipe 71 and one return pipe 72.
  • the cooling pipe 7 desirably has heat resistance and is made of a nonmagnetic material, and for example, stainless steel can be used.
  • the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 communicate with each other at one end side, a cooling medium inlet P1 is formed at the other end of the outward pipe 71, and a cooling medium outlet P2 is formed at the other end of the return pipe 72.
  • the cooling medium inlet P1 and the cooling medium outlet P2 are provided on the opening side of the roller main body 2, and here, the cooling medium inlet P1 and the cooling medium outlet P2 penetrate the flange member 6 and are located on the machine base-side.
  • the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 are wound at the same pitch, and a spiral element of the outward pipe 71 and a spiral element of the return pipe 72 adjacent to each other are configured to be equidistant from each other.
  • the spiral element of the outward pipe 71 and the spiral element of the return pipe 72 are alternately arranged along the axial direction of the roller main body 2.
  • the one outward pipe 71 and the one return pipe 72 communicating with each other at the one end side are formed by bending one pipe into a U-shape and then spirally bending the pipe.
  • the cooling pipe 7 configured as described above to the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31, by inserting a linear filler material into the gap between the cylindrical iron core 31 and the cylindrical cooling pipe 7 and welding them, the welding between the cylindrical iron core 31 and the cooling pipe 7 can be strengthened, and a heat transfer area can be increased.
  • the distance W (see FIG. 1 ) between the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31 and the outer peripheral surface of the rotary shaft 4 is equal to or greater than the one cooling pipe 7 and less than two of the cooling pipes 7, and the cooling pipe 7 having the above-described two-pipe configuration can be easily provided between the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31 and the outer peripheral surface of the rotary shaft 4 without efforts.
  • the distance between the cooling pipe 7 and the rotary shaft 4 is short, the rotary shaft 4 heated by heat from the roller main body 2 can be cooled, the bearings 5 that rotatably supports the rotary shaft 4 can be prevented from becoming high temperature, and thermal deterioration of the bearings 5 can be prevented.
  • the cooling medium when the cooling medium is introduced from the cooling medium inlet P1 into the cooling pipe 7, the cooling medium flows through the outward pipe 71, then flows through the return pipe 72 connected to the outward pipe 71, and is led out from the cooling medium outlet P2.
  • both the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 are spirally wound in the same winding direction along the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31, the cooling pipe 7 can be disposed along the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31 from the cooling medium inlet P1 to the cooling medium outlet P2.
  • the piping structure of the cooling pipe 7 for cooling the cylindrical iron core 31 can be simplified.
  • the cooling medium can be introduced and led out in the configuration in which the cooling pipe 7 is disposed along the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical iron core 31, an occupied space by the cooling pipe 7 can be reduced. Further, since the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 of the cooling pipe 7 are not provided in the thickness of the iron core 31, it is also possible to prevent a decrease in the cross-sectional area of the iron core 31.
  • the cooling pipe 7 of the above embodiment has a configuration including one outward pipe 71 and one return pipe 72, but may have a configuration including two or more outward pipes and two or more return pipes.
  • the cooling medium inlets of the two or more outward pipes may be independently provided in each of the outward pipes, or the cooling medium may be branched from one cooling medium inlet to be introduced into the two or more outward pipes.
  • the cooling medium outlets of the two or more return pipes may be independently provided in each of the return pipes, or the two or more return pipes may be joined and led out from one cooling medium outlet.
  • the spiral element of the outward pipe 71 and the spiral element of the return pipe 72 may be configured to be in contact with each other.
  • the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 are integrally formed by deforming one pipe, but the outward pipe 71 and the return pipe 72 may be communicated with each other by connecting a spiral pipe to be the outward pipe 71 and a spiral pipe to be the return pipe 72 at one end thereof using a connecting pipe or the like.
  • cooling pipe of the above embodiment is a circular pipe having a circular cross-section, but may be an elliptical pipe having an elliptical cross-section or a rectangular pipe having a rectangular cross-section.
  • a heat insulating material may also be disposed on an outer periphery of the induction coil 32. This heat insulating material blocks a heat flow such as heat radiation and air heat conduction from the roller main body 2 to the induction coil 32, and contributes to lowering the temperature of the induction coil 32.
  • the cylindrical iron core 31, the induction coil 32, and the cooling pipe 7 may be molded with a heat-resistant resin. Specifically, when the gap between the cylindrical iron core 31, the induction coil 32, and the cooling pipe 7 is impregnated with a heat-resistant resin and molded, the air layer present in each portion is eliminated by filling with the heat-resistant resin, and the overall heat transfer coefficient is increased, the void portion of the magnetic flux generation mechanism 3 is eliminated, the thermal resistance is further reduced, and the heat of the cylindrical iron core 31 and the induction coil 32 can be effectively transferred to the cooling medium flowing through the cooling pipe 7.
  • the roller main body includes a cylindrical shell portion and a pair of journals provided at both ends of the shell portion.
  • the journal portion includes a flange portion covering an end opening of the shell portion, and a hollow drive shaft integrally formed with the flange portion.
  • the drive shaft is rotatably supported by the machine base via bearings such as rolling bearings, and is configured to be rotated by a driving force applied from the outside by, for example, a motor.
  • the magnetic flux generation mechanism of the embodiment described above is disposed inside the roller main body.
