Description

Drive motor with a slot cover

The invention relates to a drive motor for a suction device or a machine tool in the form of a hand machine tool or a semi-stationary machine tool, the drive motor having a stator with a Erregerspu len arrangement and a rotor with a motor shaft that is attached to the stator or with respect to the stator using a Bearing arrangement is rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation, the rotor being taken up in a rotor receptacle of the stator, which has grooves on its inner circumference that extend along longitudinal axes in particular parallel to the axis of rotation and open to the axis of rotation, for the introduction of excitation coils Excitation coil arrangement provided insertion openings which are closed by slot covers, the slot covers engaging on their opposite longitudinal sides, which extend along the longitudinal axis of the respective slot and have a transverse spacing across the longitudinal axis with rear engagement contours of the grooves and having a wall section between the longitudinal sides for covering the groove, and wherein the rear engagement contours support the groove cover towards the axis of rotation and hold it in the respective groove. The invention also relates to a method for arranging such a groove cover on such a drive motor.

Motors with such slot covers are explained in US Pat. No. 6,713,927 B2 or DE 38 90 737 C2, for example. The slot covers are typically designed in the form of rigid rods which are pushed into the slots from the respective end faces or longitudinal end regions of the stator. The further the slot cover is inserted into the slot, the greater the frictional resistance. The slot covers must be designed to be correspondingly rigid. It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide an improved drive motor to.

To achieve the object, it is provided in a drive motor of the type mentioned that the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides of at least one slot cover can be changed in such a way that the slot cover can be inserted into the slot in a direction of movement radially to the axis of rotation of the rotor past the engagement contours of the slot and on their long sides can be brought into engagement behind with the engagement contours of the groove.

The procedure provides for:

Introducing at least one slot cover into the rotor receptacle and moving the slot cover into the slot in a direction of movement radial to the axis of rotation of the rotor, the transverse distance of the longitudinal sides of the slot cover being changed in such a way that the slot cover past the engagement contours of the slot into and onto the slot reaches their long sides in rear grip with the Hinternahmkontu ren of the groove.

The engagement contours extend, for example, directly to the Rän countries of the insertion opening and reduce, so to speak, its insertion cross-section.

The groove cover preferably has a longitudinal shape with a longitudinal axis. When the groove cover is arranged in the groove, the longitudinal axes of the groove and groove cover run parallel to one another. So if reference is made to a longitudinal axis of the groove, the longitudinal axis of the groove cover can also be addressed.

A basic idea here is that the slot cover is, so to speak, inserted into the slot from the interior of the rotor receptacle, so that it latches with the slot, for example. Assembly is much simpler than, for example, when a slot cover is introduced at the end, as is customary in the prior art. The groove cover can also be designed to be significantly less rigid in its longitudinal direction, for example, because it is not must be resilient along its longitudinal axis for a plug movement. Rather, bending flexibility or resilience is even preferred, in particular transversely to the longitudinal axis of the groove or groove cover.

For example, the wall section of the groove cover is designed as a flexurally flexible section or has such a flexurally flexible section, the flexurally flexible section being deformable in the sense of reducing the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides of the groove cover transversely to the longitudinal axis or narrowing the groove cover transversely to the longitudinal axis. The longitudinal sides or longitudinal flanks of the groove cover can therefore be deformed towards one another in order to reduce the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides and thus enable introduction into the insertion opening of the groove.

The groove cover advantageously forms a latching body which can be introduced into the groove in a direction of movement radially to the axis of rotation of the drive motor and can be latched with the engagement contours from behind. The latching function is possible, for example, on the basis of the flexible section already mentioned. It is also possible, however, for latching contours to be present on the side of the groove cover, for example spring-loaded latching bodies or the like, which can come into engagement with the groove's rear grip contours. At this point it should be mentioned that a bendably flexible configuration of at least one wall section or another part of the groove cover is preferred. In principle, however, it is conceivable that the Nutab cover comprises a wall body that is solid transversely to the longitudinal sides or with regard to the transverse distance, but on the longitudinal sides of which flexible parts are present. In principle, a telescopic groove cover would also be conceivable, which has telescopic sections in the sense of reducing and increasing the transverse distance between its longitudinal sides.

It is advantageous if the groove cover can be braced with the groove

Forms clamping body or clamping body, which is clamped or clamped to the groove in a state received in the groove. For example, the groove cover is supported on side walls of the groove that extend in the direction of the longitudinal axis. It is also advantageous if the groove cover is braced in its state taken up in the groove transversely to the longitudinal axis in the sense of increasing the transverse distance with the groove.

The groove cover, for example its wall section, preferably has an arcuate, curved or barrel-shaped cross section transversely to the longitudinal axis or its longitudinal extension. Such an arched or curved cross section enables a particularly simple displacement or deformation of the wall section in the sense of a reduction and subsequent enlargement of the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides. The groove cover has the arched and / or curved and / or barrel-shaped cross-section advantageously when it is inserted into the groove and / or when it is not inserted into the groove and / or in the unloaded state and / or before it is inserted into the groove and / or without any force acting on them. In its longitudinal extension the groove cover has e.g. their greatest length. The cross-section of the groove cover extends, for example, between narrow sides or long sides of the groove cover. The groove cover preferably has a curvature or curvature between its narrow sides or long sides.

It is preferred if the groove cover as a whole, but preferably the wall section, is curved into an interior space of the groove or away from the axis of rotation. Thus, the slot cover is not in front of the Rotorauf acquisition, but rather arches away from it, so to speak. As a result, the freedom of movement for the rotor is not restricted. In principle, however, the reverse configuration is also conceivable, in that the curvature of the slot cover is oriented towards the axis of rotation of the rotor. Only low joining forces are neces sary to introduce the groove cover into the groove. In particular, the introduction of the groove cover into the groove, for example, is facilitated by a flexibility transverse to the longitudinal extent or longitudinal axis of the Nutab cover and / or by the insertion bevel or displacement contour of the groove cover explained below. Furthermore, an insertion bevel or displacement contour is advantageously provided on the groove cover, which is suitable for inserting the groove cover into the insertion opening of the groove. The lead-in bevel makes it easier to lead the groove cover into the groove. The displacement contour is advantageously suitable for deforming the groove cover in the sense of reducing the transverse distance between its longitudinal sides.

The lead-in bevel or displacement contour is, for example, an inclined surface, a curved surface or the like. In particular, the already mentioned arched outer contour of the wall section can represent or form the insertion bevel or displacement contour.

When a force is applied to the groove cover in the radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation into the insertion opening of the groove, the insertion bevel or displacement contour expediently causes a force on the groove cover in the sense of reducing the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides of the groove cover. Thus, the groove cover is, so to speak, deformed into a narrower shape by the force applied via the insertion bevel or displacement contour.

The groove advantageously has at least one support contour for supporting the Nutab cover in a direction of force radially outward with respect to the axis of rotation. For example, the support contour of the at least one engagement contour is opposite. The support contour and the engagement contour can form a V-shaped or U-shaped configuration, for example. For example, the support contour is, so to speak, the support contour which supports towards the bottom of the groove. The rear grip contour acts in a supporting manner during or against a movement of the groove cover out of the groove or prevents the groove cover from moving out of the groove.

In principle, it is possible for the support contour and the engagement contour to be provided on one of the opposite sides, for example a form-fit projection that protrudes into the interior of the groove. The at least one engagement contour and / or the at least one support contour are preferably designed as, in particular, planar or planar support surfaces or support surfaces or stop surfaces.

The groove cover has a rear gripping surface assigned to the rear engagement contour of the groove.

If the groove provides a support contour, the groove cover has a support surface assigned to it for support on the support contour.

It is advantageous if the support surface of the groove cover is designed as an insertion bevel or displacement contour for inserting the groove cover into the insertion opening of the groove.

The support contour and / or the engagement contour and / or the support surface and / or the engagement surface are advantageously planar or flat surfaces. However, it is also possible for one or more of the aforementioned contours or surfaces to have a curvature.

The support contour and the rear engagement contour preferably adjoin one another directly. The support contour and the engagement contour are advantageously angled to one another, in particular at an obtuse angle. The support contour and the rear grip contour advantageously form an angle, in particular an obtuse angle.

The support contour and the rear engagement contour are preferably opposite one another.

The support surface and the rear gripping surface of the groove cover are preferably angled, in particular at an obtuse angle, to one another and / or directly adjoin one another. The support contour and / or rear engagement contour are preferably facing away from each other. On at least one longitudinal side of the groove cover, preferably on both longitudinal sides, a form-locking projection for engaging in a form-locking receptacle of the groove or a form-locking receptacle for engaging a form-locking projection of the groove is arranged. It is therefore both possible that the groove has a form-fit projection that engages in a form-fit receptacle of the slot cover or, conversely, that the groove cover has a form-fit projection that engages in a form-fit receptacle of the groove, as shown in the example shown in the drawing. Preferably, form-fit projections or form-fit receptacles are provided on the opposite longitudinal sides of the groove cover, but it is also possible that a form-fit projection is present on one longitudinal side of the groove cover and a form-fit receptacle is present on the other longitudinal side.

The groove has a form-fit receptacle for the form-fit projection of the slot cover and a form-fit projection for the form-fit projection of the slot cover, for example opposing form-fit projections or form-fit receptacles or a form-fit projection and a form-fit receptacle opposite one another.

The engagement contour of the groove and / or the support contour of the groove is preferably provided on the respective form-fit projection or the form-fit receptacle of the groove.

It is also advantageous if the rear gripping surface and / or the support surface is provided on the form-fit projection or the form-fit receptacle of the groove cover.

A section of the interlocking projection that protrudes furthest defines the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides of the groove cover. Preferably, the Nutab cover on opposite longitudinal sides each have a form-fit projection, the most protruding portions of which define the transverse width of the Nutab cover or the transverse spacing of the longitudinal sides. The at least one form-fit projection or the at least one form-fit receptacle of the groove cover is preferably movable transversely to the longitudinal axis in the direction of a transverse center in the sense of reducing the transverse distance between the longitudinal sides of the groove cover. This can be achieved, for example, in that the wall section of the groove cover is flexible in bending.

The form-fit projection or the form-fit receptacle extends preferably over the entire length of the groove cover and / or the groove with respect to the longitudinal axis. Otherwise a segmented design would also be possible, i.e. that, for example, two or more form-fit projections or form-fit receptacles are arranged next to one another with respect to the longitudinal axis, but at a longitudinal distance from one another.

The interlocking projection and the interlocking receptacle are preferably complementary to one another. The form-locking projection therefore fits into the respective form-locking receptacle. A U-shaped or V-shaped cross-sectional contour or shape is advantageous for the form-fit projection and the form-fit receptacle. It is preferred if the side flanks of the form-fit projection and the form-fit receptacle have a large angular distance of at least 90 degrees from one another, for example.

It is also advantageous if there is a spacing or free space between the slot cover and the coil conductors which are arranged in the slot.

It is advantageously provided that the slot cover is not designed to hold and / or support from coils or coil conductors of the stator coil arrangement received in the slot. If, for example, a coil or a coil conductor acts on the slot cover in the sense of removal, the slot cover gives way and / or is released from the slot.

It is also advantageous if the engagement contour and / or an engagement surface of the groove cover for support on the at least one engagement contour of the groove has a release bevel or is designed as a release slope which, when force is applied to the groove cover, radially inwards with respect to the The axis of rotation acts on the groove cover in the sense of loosening the groove cover from the groove and / or in the sense of deforming the groove cover in the sense of narrowing it. If, for example, a coil or a coil conductor of the stator coil arrangement acts on the slot cover and / or exerts a force in the sense of removing it from the slot, the engagement contour or the engagement surface or both, engagement contour and engagement surface, act in the sense of releasing the slot cover from the Groove. For example, the groove cover is narrowed by the release bevel or release bevels so that it comes out of the groove and / or a form fit between the groove cover and the groove is eliminated.

It is advantageous if the engagement contour of the groove and the or one engagement surface of the groove cover resting on the engagement contour are designed as sealing surfaces which advantageously lie flat against one another. It is furthermore advantageous if the support contour of the groove and the or one support surface of the groove cover resting on the support contour are designed as a sealing surface, which are partially in contact with one another. In particular, the support contour and the engagement contour as well as the support surface and the engagement surface of the groove cover resting thereon form a sealing profile.

The wall section of the slot cover preferably forms a base leg of the slot cover, from which at least one side leg protrudes at an angle, which extends parallel to the longitudinal axis and is in engagement with one of the rear gripping cones of the groove. Side legs of this type are preferably arranged on opposite sides of the base leg.

A free end area of at least one side leg or the side leg! is preferably oriented or inclined towards the wall section, so that in a transition area between the wall section and the side leg, a form-fit projection for engaging in a form-fit receptacle of the groove is formed. The interlocking projection is therefore located on the longitudinal outer sides or longitudinal sides of the groove cover. The groove cover expediently forms a wall body or profile body or is formed thereby.

For example, the slot cover is made of plastic, in particular polyamide. The groove cover can be fiber-reinforced, in particular glass fiber-reinforced. Fibers of the fiber reinforcement preferably extend parallel or essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the groove cover or the groove.

It is advantageous if the groove cover is obtained by a roll material that has been developed from a winding, which is deformed into a straight, elongated shape and separated from the roll material. It is therefore preferred to unwind a roll material from a roll and sever a length of the roll material in order to provide the at least one groove cover. It may be necessary to first bring the roll material into an elongated, straight shape before it is introduced into the groove. For this purpose, a smoothing device, for example comprising pressing members, heating devices or the like, is preferably provided.

It is possible that the groove cover is seated in the groove exclusively with a press fit or tension fit. However, it is also possible for the groove cover to be materially connected to the groove, for example glued, welded or the like. An advantageous concept provides that the slot cover is fixed, in particular welded, to at least one longitudinal end region of the stator by a bearing cover that closes the end of the stator. For example, the bearing cover has a receptacle in which a section of the slot cover, in particular protruding in front of the stator or its carrier package, is received. It is also possible for a material of the stator, in particular a carrier body on which the laminated core of the stator is arranged, to melt and bond to the slot cover when welding, gluing or the like other cohesive connection of the bearing cover to the stator. A magnet arrangement arranged on the rotor comprises magnets, in particular permanent magnets.

For example, magnetized magnet bodies or magnet bodies suitable for magnetization on the laminated core of the rotor are made of aluminum-nickel-cobalt, bismanol, i.e. an alloy of bismuth, manganese and iron, made of a ferrite, e.g. a hard-magnetic ferrite, e.g. based on barium, strontium, from neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB), advantageously with an addition of dysprosium, from samarium-cobalt (SmCo), advantageously with 20-25% iron, e.g. SmCos, Srri2Coi7, Sm (Co, Cu, Fe, Zr) _z , or similar. Rare earth magnets or plastic magnets are also possible. AINiCo alloys are also suitable,

PtCo alloys, CuNiFe and CuNiCo alloys, FeCoCr alloys, martensitic steels or MnAIC alloys for the magnet bodies.

The drive motor is preferably a brushless motor or an electronically commutated motor. In particular, it is advantageous if the respective stator of the drive motor has permanent magnets or is excited by permanent magnets.

Laminated cores of the rotor and / or the stator are preferably made from historical electrical sheets or transformer sheets.

A stator of the drive motor expediently comprises a carrier body made of plastic, in particular made of polyamide. The carrier body is produced, for example, by casting and / or overmolding the laminated core of the stator. It is also possible that the carrier body comprises one or more plug-in bodies or plug-in carrier bodies which are attached to the laminated core. For example, such a can on one or both end faces of the laminated core

Be plugged in the carrier body. The carrier body covers the laminated core from preferably in the area of the rotor mount and / or in the area of one or both end faces of the laminated core. On the carrier body, supports, support projections, end windings and the like for receiving coil conductors of the excitation coil arrangement are preferably provided. Furthermore, the carrier body has preferably electrical connection contacts or connection devices for connecting a connection line with which the drive motor can be or is connected to a flow device.

FIG. 1 shows a system illustration comprising a Fland machine tool 300, for example a sawing machine, in which a drive motor 20 drives a tool holder 301 for a work tool, for example directly or via a transmission not visible in the drawing. A working tool 302, for example a cutting tool, sawmill or the like, can be or is arranged on the tool holder 301. The drive motor 20 is accommodated in a housing 303 of the machine tool 300 and can be switched on and off using a switch 304. A speed of the drive motor 20 can preferably also be set with the switch 304. A connection cable 305 for connection to a power supply network EV is used for the electrical power supply of the Fland machine tool 300. The Energy supply network EV provides a supply voltage P1, for example 110 V AC voltage, 230 V AC voltage or the like. The hand machine tool 300 can have a current supply device 306 connected between the switch 304 and the drive motor 20.

The drive motor 20 can also be provided for operating a suction device 400, in particular for driving a suction turbine of the suction device 400. The suction device 400 has the drive motor 20 and is e.g. Can be connected to the energy supply network EV using a connection cable 405.

The voltage P1 is in any case significantly greater, e.g. at least four times to five times greater than a voltage P2, which an energy store 205 a

Hand machine tool 200 provides. The voltage P2 is, for example, a DC voltage of 14 V, 18 V or the like.

The hand machine tool 200 is, for example, a screwdriver, drill or the like. In a housing 203 of

Hand machine tool 200 includes a drive motor 120 which is suitable for the lower voltage P2. The drive motor 120 is energized by an energization device 206, which is supplied with electrical energy by the energy store 205. The drive motor 120 drives a tool holder 201 for a working tool 202, for example a drilling tool or screwing tool, directly or via a gear 208. The energization device 206 can be switched on, switched off and / or configured to set a speed of the drive motor 120 by a switch 204.

The drive motors 20, 120 have partially identical or similar components.

For example, in the drive motors 20, 120 optionally usable motor shafts 30 and 130 each have bearing sections 31, 32, between which a Hal tea section 33 is provided. The bearing section 32 is located next to an output section 34 which is used to drive the tool holder 201 or 301. A gearwheel, for example, can be arranged on the output section 34 be or be arrangeable. Alternatively, as indicated for a motor shaft 130, a toothing 35 is present. The holding section 33 preferably has a form-fit contouring 36 which extends between planar sections 37, that is to say which do not have any form-fit contouring. The form-fit contouring 36 comprises, for example, grooves and / or projections 36A extending parallel to a longitudinal axis L of the motor shaft 30. However, corrugation, honeycomb-like structure or the like can also be provided as the form-fitting contouring 36.

A form-fit contouring 136 of the motor shaft 130 includes, for example, form-fit projections 136A inclined at an angle to the longitudinal axis L. The locking projections 136A, however, have a slight inclination, e.g. between 5 and 15 degrees, so that the form-locking projections 136A run essentially parallel to the longitudinal axis L.

The form-fit contours 36, 136 form, for example, form-fit contours 36B, 136B.

The output section 34 can be provided for driving a fan wheel. For example, a fan wheel holder 38 is provided on the motor shaft 130, which is arranged, for example, between the toothing 35 and the bearing portion 32. The motor shaft 30 or 130 can be connected non-rotatably to a laminated core 41 or 141 of a rotor 40, 140. The laminated cores 41, 141 have sheets 43 arranged next to one another in a row arrangement transverse to the longitudinal axis L, for example electrical sheets or transformer sheets in a known manner.

The laminated cores 41, 141 have shaft passage openings 42, 142 which have different diameters. The shaft passage opening 42 has a larger diameter than the shaft passage opening 142. The motor shaft 30 or 130 can be inserted into the shaft passage opening 42 using an insulating sleeve 60, while the motor shafts can be inserted into the shaft passage opening 142 30 or 130 can be used directly, so no insulation sleeve or the like of other bodies is necessary.

The insulating sleeve 60 forms an insulating body 60A, by means of which the laminated core 41 is electrically isolated from the motor shaft 30 or 130 carrying it.

Magnet assemblies 50 are arranged on the laminated cores 41 and 141. The laminated cores 41 or 141 have holding receptacles 45 for magnets 50 of the magnetic assemblies 50. For example, four holding receptacles 45 and associated magnets 51 are provided, so that the rotor 40, 140 forms a total of four magnetic poles. The magnets 51 are e.g. Permanent magnets.

The magnets 51 have a plate-like shape, for example. The magnet 51 are, for example, magnetic disks or plate bodies 56. The Halteauf recordings 45 are accordingly suitable for receiving plate-shaped, ie flat rectangular, cubic plate bodies or magnetic plates and have corresponding inner circumferential contours.

The holding receptacles 45 and the magnets 51 extend parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the motor shaft 30, 130 or parallel to the axis of rotation D of the motor 20, 120.

Furthermore, the rotor 40, in particular as a laminated core 41, 141, is penetrated by air ducts 46, which extend parallel to the longitudinal axis L of the motor shaft 30, 130 and are open at the end faces 44 of the rotor 40, 140, so that the laminated cores 41 , 141 can be flowed through by air.

The shaft passage opening 42, 142 has an essentially circular inner circumferential contour, but advantageously also has an anti-rotation lock contour 47, in particular an anti-rotation lock receptacle 47A. The anti-rotation contour 47 is, for example, a longitudinal groove 47B, which extends paral lel to the axis of rotation D or longitudinal axis L. Both motor shafts 30, 130 can each be inserted into the laminated cores 41, 141.

In the case of the laminated core 141, the shaft opening 142 of which has a smaller diameter than the shaft opening 42 of the other laminated packet 41, the respective motor shaft 30, 130 can be inserted directly into the shaft opening 142, e.g. be pressed in.

The narrow sides or end faces of the metal sheets 43, which limit the inner circumference of the Wel l through passage opening 42 or protrude into it, claw in front of the motor shaft 30, 130, so that it is immovable in a direction of force parallel to the axis of rotation D or to its longitudinal axis L in the Laminated core 141 is added. An electrical conductivity of the laminated core 141 and the motor shaft 30, 130, preferably made of metal, is possible despite the direct contact between the laminated core 141 and the motor shaft 30, 130, because the rotor 140 for use with the drive motor 120 and thus for the low re voltage P2 is provided.

In the case of the rotor 40, on the other hand, insulation measures are taken so that electrical safety is provided despite the electrical conductivity of the motor shaft 30, 130 and the associated sheet metal package 41.

The motor shaft 30, 130 is namely received in the laminated core 41 with the aid of an insulating sleeve 60. The insulating sleeve 60 forms, so to speak, a protective jacket or an outer casing for the motor shaft 30, 130 in that section which is received in the shaft opening 42.

The insulation sleeve 60 has between its longitudinal ends 61, 62 a Rohrab section 63, which is sandwiched between the laminated core 41 and the motor shaft 30, 130 and electrically insulates them from the laminated core 41.

The pipe section 63 has a plug-in receptacle 64 for inserting the motor shaft 30, 130, which extends from the longitudinal end 61 to the longitudinal end 62. In the area of the longitudinal end 61, the plug-in receptacle 64 has an insertion opening 64A, through which the motor shaft 30 can be inserted into the plug-in receptacle 64. The motor shaft 30 emerges from the plug-in receptacle 64 at an outlet opening 64B.

In the area of the longitudinal end 61, i.e. a longitudinal end area 61 A, the plug-in receptacle 64 has a larger diameter W1 and thus a larger inner cross section WQ1 than in the area of the longitudinal end 62, i.e. a longitudinal end area 62A, where a smaller diameter W2 and thus a smaller inner cross section WQ2 is available. For example, the diameter of the motor shaft 30, 130 in the region of the longitudinal ends 61, 62 is approximately 10 mm. In contrast, the diameter W2 is about 0.2 mm to 0.3 mm smaller than the diameter W1 before the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted into the receptacle 64. When the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted from the longitudinal end 61 to the longitudinal end 62 into the insulating sleeve 60 along a plug-in axis S, as indicated in FIG. 7, it first penetrates slightly or with transverse play with respect to the plug-in axis S into the plug-in opening 64A at the longitudinal end 61 a, where the plug receptacle 64 has the diameter W1. The diameter W1 is advantageously somewhat larger than the diameter of the motor shaft 30, 130 at its free longitudinal end intended for insertion into the plug-in receptacle 64. The area of the insertion opening 64A forms a centering section in which the motor shaft 30, 130 is centered with respect to the insulating sleeve 60 or the axis of rotation D. For example, the motor shaft 30 has the same external cross-section or external diameter both in the area of the diameter W1 and in the area of the diameter W2.

Alternatively or in addition, it is possible that, for example, the motor shaft 30 has a first outer cross section AQ1 and a second outer cross section AQ2, which are assigned to the longitudinal ends 61, 62 of the plug-in receptacle 64, the first outer cross section AQ1 being smaller than the second outer cross section AQ2. In this embodiment of the motor shaft 30, it is also possible for the diameters W1 and W2 and thus the inner cross-sections of the plug-in receptacle 64 in the region of the longitudinal ends 61 and 62 to be identical or approximately the same.

Between the longitudinal ends 61, 62, the plug-in receptacle 64 is preferably continuously narrower from the diameter W1 to the diameter W2. But it would be possible also that there is at least one step between the diameter W1 and the diameter W2. The plug-in receptacle 64 advantageously has a plug-in cone which becomes narrower from the longitudinal end 61 to the longitudinal end 62.

At the longitudinal end 61, lead-in bevels 65, for example a lead-in cone, are advantageously provided in order to facilitate the process of inserting the motor shaft 30, 130 into the plug-in receptacle 64.

When the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted into the plug-in receptacle 64 along the plug-in axis S, it penetrates further and further in the direction of the longitudinal end 62, widening the pipe section 63, which becomes narrower towards the longitudinal end 62, so to speak.

Installation is as follows:

First, the insulating sleeve 60 is inserted into the shaft passage opening 42 of the laminated core 41.

Provision is advantageously made for the plug-in cross-section or inner cross-section of the shaft passage opening 42 to be the same or approximately the same over its entire length provided for inserting the insulating sleeve 60.

It is also possible, however, for the shaft passage opening 42 to have a larger internal cross-section at a longitudinal end region 41 A provided for inserting the insulating sleeve 60 than at a longitudinal end region 41 B opposite this longitudinal end region.

Then the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted into the plug-in receptacle 64. Thus, when the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted into the plug-in receptacle 64 along the plug-in axis S, it presses the radial outer circumference of the pipe section 64 in the direction of the radial inner circumference of the shaft passage opening 42. The metal sheets 43 preferably penetrate with their facing the shaft passage opening 42 Narrow sides into the peripheral wall 66 like teeth. The plug-in receptacle 64 has the narrower diameter W2 up to an area in front of the laminated core 41, so that the motor shaft 30, 130, when it reaches this area of the plug-in receptacle 64, expands the peripheral wall 66 of the pipe section 63 radially outward with respect to the plug-in axis S. and thus the pipe or pipe section 63, so to speak, expands. As a result, a form-fitting part 75 is formed with a step 67 on the outer circumference of the peripheral wall 63, which engages directly or engages behind with the end face 44 of the laminated core 41. The step 63 thus holds the insulating sleeve 60 on the laminated core 41 with a force direction opposite to the plugging direction in which the motor shaft 30, 130 can be plugged into the plug-in receptacle 64.

At the other longitudinal end region, the longitudinal end 61, the insulating sleeve 63 has a flange body 68 which protrudes radially outward in front of the pipe section 63 with respect to the plug-in axis S or the longitudinal axis L.

The flange body 68 forms a longitudinal stop 68A with respect to the plug-in axis S and is supported, for example, on the end face 44 of the laminated core 41 in the region of the longitudinal end 61. The flange body 68 has, for example, reinforcing ribs 69 which extend from its radial outer circumference in the direction of the plug receptacle 64, i. radially inward to the plug-in axis S, extend. The reinforcement ribs 69 are arranged, for example, on an end face 71 of the flange body 68 facing away from the laminated core 41.

A support stop 70 for the motor shaft 30, 130 is also provided at the insertion opening 64A, against which a support stop 39, for example a step, of the motor shaft 30, 130 can strike with a direction of force parallel to the plug axis S. The support stop 70 is formed, for example, by a step between the end face 71 of the insulating sleeve 60 and the plug-in receptacle.

In the area of the longitudinal end 62 or at the outlet opening 64B, the insulating sleeve 60 preferably has a smaller outer circumference or diameter than in the area of the longitudinal end 61. For example, insertion bevels 72 are provided at the longitudinal end 62, which facilitate the insertion of the insulating sleeve 60 into the shaft. Lean passage opening 42 of the laminated core 41 facilitate. The longitudinal end 62 is designed, for example, as a plug-in projection.

Preferably, the insulation sleeve 60 protrudes at the longitudinal end 62 with a pipe section 73 forming an insulation section 76 in front of the end face 44 of the laminated core 41, so that there is electrical insulation between the motor shaft 30, 130 on the one hand and the metal sheets 43 on the other .

At the other longitudinal end 61, on the other hand, the flange body 68, which so to speak protrudes laterally in front of the shaft opening 42, provides electrical insulation and also forms an insulation section 76. This results in an electrical insulation gap both in the area of the flange body 68 and on the pipe section 73 from around 8 mm to 10 mm, for example, with a clearance and creepage distance that is suitable for electrical insulation with respect to the voltage P1.

On the radial outer circumference of the insulation sleeve 60, in particular over the entire longitudinal extent of the pipe section 63, an anti-rotation contour 74 for engaging the anti-rotation contour 47 of the laminated core 41 is preferably arranged. The anti-rotation contour 74 is designed, for example, as an anti-rotation projection 74A, in particular as a longitudinal projection or a longitudinal rib 74B, which extends parallel to the plug-in axis S or axis of rotation D, respectively.

The insulation sleeve 60 is received in a press fit or press fit between the motor shaft 30, 130 and the laminated core 41. This creates a frictional connection.

The anti-rotation contours 47, 74 also provide a form fit, by means of which the insulation sleeve 60 is held in a form-fitting manner on the laminated core 41 with respect to and / or transversely to the axis of rotation D.

The form-fit contouring 36, 136 of the motor shafts 30, 130 engages in a tooth-like manner in the inner circumference of the pipe section 63, so that the motor shaft 30, 130 rotationally secure with respect to its axis of rotation D or longitudinal axis L and / or ver non-sliding with respect to the axis of rotation D or the longitudinal axis L in the insulation sleeve 60 is received. The form-fit contouring 36, 136 advantageously forms a counter-form-fit contouring on the inner circumference of the pipe section 36, that is, for example, deforms the inner circumference of the pipe section 63 plastic so that the form-fit contouring 36, 136 with this Ge

gene form-fit contouring is positively engaged. The plastic deformation or expression of the mating form-fit contouring results or forms, for example, when the motor shaft 30, 130 is inserted into the insulation sleeve 60.

The insulating sleeve 60 thus enables the motor shafts 30, 130, which can be inserted directly into the laminated core 141 without additional measures, can also be used with the laminated core 41 without further ado. There is no need to design different motor shafts. Geometrically, the motor shafts 30, 130 on the holding sections 33, which are provided for connection to the laminated cores 41 or 141, are identical. For example, the length and diameter of the holding sections 33 are identical. However, it is possible for different upper surfaces and / or surface contours to be provided in the area of the holding sections 33 of the motor shafts 30 and 130 for the optimal hold of the laminated core 41 or 141.

Preferably, abutment projections 43A protruding into the shaft passage opening 42 or 142 penetrate into the radial outer circumference of the pipe section 63 of the insulating sleeve 60 or the radial outer circumference of the holding section 33 of the motor shaft 30, 130. Form-fitting parts 75A, for example, form-fitting receptacles 75B, in which the abutment projections 43A engage, are schematically indicated in FIG. 5. The radial outer circumference of the pipe section 63 is, for example, by the motor shaft 30 radially outward with respect to the plug-in axis S or of the axis of rotation D, the abutment projections 43A penetrating into the pipe section 63 and preferably clawing into it. The abutment projections 43A are provided, for example, on the end faces of the metal sheets 43 facing the shaft passage opening 42 or 142. Between tween the abutment projections 43A, in particular between groups of abutment projections 43A, there are preferably distances with respect to the axis of rotation D, for example angular distances and / or longitudinal distances. The abutment projections 43A hold the insulation sleeve 60 in the shaft opening 42 or the motor shaft 30, 130 in the shaft opening 142 parallel to the axis of rotation D and / or in the circumferential direction with respect to the axis of rotation D. Preferably, several abutment projections 43A are provided at angular intervals around the axis of rotation D. . The insulating sleeve 60 is displaced radially outward by the motor shaft 30 inserted into it, so that the abutment protrusions 43A penetrate the outer circumference or the jacket or the peripheral wall 66 of the insulating sleeve 60, in particular penetrate like a claw.

The rotors 40, 140 of the drive motors 20, 120 can be used together with a stator 80, which has an excitation coil arrangement 86. The excitation coil arrangement 86 can have differently designed excitation coils 87, for example excitation coils 87 with more or fewer turns, with different conductor cross-sections or the like, in order to do justice to the different voltages P1 and P2 and / or current strengths of currents that flow through the excitation coils 87 to become.

The stator 80 has a laminated core 81 with a rotor receptacle 82 configured as a passage opening for the rotor 40, 140. In the rotor receptacle 82, the Ro tor 40, 140 is rotatably received, with a narrow air gap between the laminated core 81 and the laminated core 41, 141 in a known manner IN ANY.

The laminated core 81 has sheets 83, for example electrical sheets or Trafoble surface, the plate plane of which extends transversely to the axis of rotation D of the drive motor 20, 120. The respective motor shaft 30, 130 protrudes in front of the end faces 84, 85 of the laminated core 81, where it is rotatably mounted on bearings 24, 25 of a bearing arrangement 24A. The bearings 24, 25 are held on bearing receptacles 23 by bearing caps 21, 22 which close the stator 80 at the end.

The bearings 24, 25 can be set, in particular pressed into the bearing receptacles 23 of the bearing caps 21, 22. However, it is also possible that the bearings 24, 25 are encapsulated or encapsulated with the material of the bearing caps 21, 22.

For example, the bearing caps 21, 22 are firmly connected to the laminated core 41 or a carrier body 90 carrying the laminated core 41, for example screwed, glued or preferably welded.

The bearing caps 21, 22 and the carrier body 90 are preferably made of plastic, in particular made of a thermoplastic. The same plastic, for example the same thermoplastic, is preferably used for the bearing caps 21, 22 and the carrier body 90.

For example, the carrier body 90 is produced in a casting process in which the laminated core 81 is cast.

The carrier body 90 has bearing cover receptacles 91 for the bearing covers 21, 22. In the bearing cover receptacles 91 are e.g. Peripheral walls 26 of the bearing cover 21, 22 can be inserted, e.g. with their end faces.

The bearing cover 21 is arranged closer to the output section 34 of the motor shaft 30, 130. The bearing cap 22 in the area further away from it. The bearing caps 21, 22 close the laminated core 81 opposite one another

Longitudinal end areas. The bearing cover 21 projects less far in front of the end face of the laminated core 41, 141 than the bearing cover 22. The bearing cover 21 has a receiving space 21A for the flange body 68.

The bearing 24 is closer to the potentially current-carrying laminated cores 41, 81 than the bearing 25. The bearing 24 and the bearing 25 are electrically conductively connected to the Lagerab section 31 and thus the motor shaft 30, 130, so that there is actually a risk that a voltage jumps from the excitation coil arrangement 86 to the motor shaft 30, 130.

Due to the electrically insulating flange body 68, however, there is a sufficient electrical insulation distance so that this risk no longer exists.

The bearing 25, on the other hand, has a larger longitudinal distance in relation to the axis of rotation D to the end face of the laminated cores 41, 81, so that here, too, there is no danger of an electrical flashover from, for example, the excitation coil arrangement 86 to the motor shaft 30, 130 in the area of the bearing 25 . In addition, the electrically insulating pipe section 73 of the insulating sleeve 60, which protrudes in front of the sheet metal packet 41 in the direction of the bearing cover 22, ensures sufficient electrical insulation.

The coil conductors 88 of the excitation coils 87 run in the laminated core 81 through grooves 89 which, for example, are arranged parallel to the axis of rotation D or inclined at an angle thereto. The grooves 89 have insertion openings 89D which are open to an inner circumference 82A of the rotor receptacle 82. The grooves 89 extend between the end faces 84, 85. The coil conductors 88 can be introduced into the grooves 89 through the insertion openings 89D and, for example, wound around winding heads or winding hammers of the laminated core 81.

Although the rotor receptacle 82 of the stator 80 facing sections of the laminated core 81, which are located between the grooves 89, covered by a Innenver cladding 92, for example encapsulated with plastic, the grooves 89 are initially open so that the coil conductor 88 is placed in them can be.

The excitation coils 87 are also wound around support projections 93 on the end face 84 of the stator 80, which form winding heads, so to speak. On the opposite end face 85 support projections 94 are provided, which are also suitable for winding with coil conductors of excitation coils, but are not wrapped in some embodiments.

The end face 85 represents, so to speak, the connection side of the drive motor 20, 120. Electrical connection devices 100 are provided there, to which, for example, connection lines 15 for electrical connection to the flow device 206, 306 can be or are connected. The connection lines 15 have a connector for plugging into a

Current supply device 206, 306 on. The connection devices 100 can also be referred to as terminals.

The connection lines 15 can be plugged into the connection devices 100, for example, or can also be soldered directly to them. The connection devices 100 have connection contact areas 101 configured, for example, as contact projections, to which connection plugs that are connected to the connection lines can be plugged. Furthermore, holes 102 are provided in the connection contact areas 101 through which, for example, a connection conductor of the connection lines 15 can be passed and soldered to the connection device 100 or electrically connected in some other way. For example, such a connection conductor could easily be welded to the connection device 100.

The connection devices 100 can be arranged on the carrier body 90 with a plug-in assembly. The carrier body 90 has holders 95 for the connection devices 100. The holders 95 include plug receptacles 96 into which the connection devices can be inserted. The plug receptacles 96 are between receptacles 97 which protrude from the end face 85 of the support body 90, vorgese hen. For example, the receiving projections 97 have mutually opposite grooves 98 into which the laterally protruding plug projections 104 in front of the connection devices 100 can be inserted, for example in the manner of a

Tongue and groove connection. The plug-in projections 104 protrude laterally in front of a base body 103 of a respective connection device 100. The plug-in projections 103 protrude transversely to the longitudinal extension of the connection contact area 101 in front of the base body 103. The plug-in projections 104 and the connection contact area 101 form an overall approximately T-shaped configuration. For example, the base body 104 forms, so to speak, a base leg from which the plug-in projections 104 protrude laterally in the manner of side legs. However, the base planes of the plug-in projections 104 and the base body 103 are different. Between the base body 103 and the plug-in projections 104, the transition section 106 is provided with, for example, S-shaped or opposing curvatures or curved sections. The plug-in projections 104 therefore project in front of a rear side 115 of the base body 103.

At the free end regions protruding in front of the base body 103, the plug-in projections 104 have form-fitting contours 105, in particular teeth 105A, barbs or the like, with which a form-fitting hold in the plug-in receptacle 96 is possible. Preferably, the plug-in projections 104 can dig into the plug-in receptacle 96 of the carrier body 90, so to speak, on the basis of the form-fitting contours 105. In particular, if the support body 90 melts in the area of the plug receptacles 96, in particular the grooves 98, when the connection device 100 is heated, which will be described below, a form-fitting connection between the plug-in projections 104 on the one hand, in particular their form-fitting contours 105, and on the other hand, the material of the carrier body 90 in the area of the plug receptacle 96, in particular in the area of the grooves 98, is made.

The toothing 105A has, for example, an interlacing, i. that for example a tooth 105B protrudes transversely to the main plane of the plug projection 104 in front of this.

The connection devices 100 have conductor receptacles 107 for receiving the respective section of a coil conductor 88 to be connected. The conductor receptacles 107 are between the front side 114 of the base body 103 on the one hand and on the other hand a receiving arm 108 of the connection device 100 is formed, which is connected to the base body 103 by means of a connecting section 109. It when the base body 103, the connec tion section 109 and the receiving arm 108 are in one piece is particularly advantageous. The side legs or plug-in projections 104 of the base body 103 are preferably integral with this. An inside of the connecting section 109 facing the conductor receptacle 107 forms a receptacle section or a receptacle hollow de 1 16A of the conductor receptacle 107.

The conductor receptacle 107 has a support surface 107A and a narrow side 107B angled thereto in the region of the receptacle trough 116A. Between the narrow side 107B and the large contact surface 107A there is arranged an inclined surface 107C, which is inclined towards the contact surface 107A and the narrow side 107B, for supporting the at least one coil conductor 88. The inclined surface 107C can be, for example, a chamfer, a curved or arcuate surface or the like. In any case, the inclined surface 107C prevents the coil conductor 88 from resting on a sharp edge.

The connection device 100 is advantageously designed as a stamped and bent part, which is first stamped out of a base material and then brought into the shape described above by appropriate shaping.

The assembly and / or fastening and / or electrical contacting of the coil conductor 88 in the conductor receptacle 107 is as follows:

First, the conductor receptacle 107 is open, namely the receptacle arm 108 still protrudes far from the base body 103, see, for example, FIGS. 12 and 14. The coil conductor 88 can reach the bottom 116, ie the inner circumference of the connecting section 109 of the conductor receptacle 107 See, for example, FIG. 12. This configuration is, however, rather undesirable, so that the coil conductor 88 is held in a position away from the base 116 of the conductor receptacle 107 by additional support measures, for example by a support 251 of a mounting device 250. However, the configuration is preferably made such that the carrier body 90 has a support contour 99 on which the coil conductor 88 is supported during assembly or when the connection device 100 is closed, see FIGS. 10 and 11. The coil conductor 88 therefore lies on the support contour 99 so that it does not touch the floor 116. The support contour 99 is provided, for example, on an outside of the receiving projections 97 facing away from the grooves 98. For example, the support contour 99 is designed as a step between the respective receiving projection 97 and the portion of the support body 90 from which the receiving projection 97 protrudes.

The raised position of the coil conductor 88 from the floor 116 is advantageous for the subsequent closing and welding operation. It is particularly advantageous when coil conductors with a small cross-section are used, e.g. a coil conductor 88B (Figure 11). This coil conductor 88B can even then stand at a distance from the bottom 116, which heats up significantly during the welding process described below, when the receiving arm 108 is moved towards the base body 103 so that its free end 113 rests on the front side 114 of the base body 103 .

The coil conductor 88B forms e.g. a component of an excitation coil 87B of an excitation coil arrangement 86B.

The receiving arm 108 has at its end region facing away from the connecting portion 109 th a closing leg 111 which protrudes angularly from a central arm portion 110 of the receiving arm 108. For example, a curved section or connecting section 112 is provided between the central arm section 110 and the closing leg 111. The closing leg 111 protrudes from the middle arm section 110 in the direction of the front side 114 of the base body 103, so that its free end 113 touches the front side 114 in the closed state of the conductor receptacle 107, while between the middle arm section 110 and the front side 114 of the base body 103 a distance is present which defines the conductor receptacle 107. Welding tongs 252 of the assembly device 250 are used to close the connecting devices 100 and welding. The welding tongs 252 have tong arms 253, 255, on the free end regions of which are provided for contact with the connecting device 100, support surfaces 254, 256 are provided. The free end regions of the tong arms 253, 255, which are provided for engagement with the connection device 100, taper to a point, that is to say form points 257. In particular in the case of the tong arm 253, which acts in a supporting manner on the rear side 115 of the connection device 100 with its support surface 254, this pointed, slim design of the tong arm 253 is advantageous.

The tong arms 253, 254 are arranged in a V-shape, so that the tips 257 attack the connecting device 100 from opposite sides (see FIG. 16), close it and then weld it.

The longitudinal axes L1, L2 of the tong arms 253, 255 preferably run at an angle W, in particular approximately 20 ° to 40 °. As a result, in particular the tip 257 of the tong arm 253 can get into the space between the bearing cover 22 and the rear side 115 of the connection device 100 and support the base body 103 there with its support surface 254.

The tong arm 254 acts in the sense of closing the conductor receptacle 107 on the receiving arm 108. For example, the curved section 112 rests against the support surface 256 of the tong arm 255. The support surfaces 254, 256 are oriented parallel or substantially parallel to one another when the support surface

254 is moved towards the support surface 256, which is shown as a feed movement VS in the drawing. The tong arm 253 therefore remains stationary and supports the connection device 100 from the rear, while the tong arm

255 adjusted the receiving arm 108 in the direction of the base body 103. Then the free end 113 of its closing leg 111 comes into contact with the front side 114 of the base body 103 of the connection device 100. Thus, the conductor receptacle 107 is then closed and a receiving eye 119A is formed. It is also possible that a welding tongs or similar other milling device transforms the receiving arm 108 from an initially elongated, straight shape, in which the closing leg 111 is not yet formed, for example, to a receiving arm 108 with closing leg 111, for example using a schematically indicated deformation contour 259 on tong arm 255.

The tong arms 253, 255 are then energized by an energizing device 258 in that the tong arms 253, 255 have different potentials and thus generate a current flow through the connection device 100. The welding current IS flows through the so to speak ring-shaped closed connection device 100, i. through those parts of the connection device 100 which close the conductor receptacle 107, namely the base body 103 in the area of the conductor receptacle 107 and the receptacle arm 108. The welding current IS flows via connection areas 118 and 119, namely on the one hand via the connection section 109, but also on the other Via a contact area 117 between the free end 113 of the closing leg 111 and the front side 114 of the base body 103. Both in the contact area 117 and in the area of the base 116, a great deal of heat occurs, but this does not damage the coil conductors 88 or 88B because they cause a Have a distance from the floor 116, but also from the upper contact area 117. At the same time, the connection device 100 becomes so hot in the area of the conductor receptacle 107 that a lacquer or similar other insulation of the coil conductors 88 melts and these come into electrical contact with the surfaces of the connection device 100.

The connection device 100 is therefore mechanically closed, so to speak, and then welded to those coil conductors 88 that are received in the conductor receptacle 107. The assembly is on the one hand gentle on the coil conductors 88, on the other hand it can also be reliably and permanently resilient, because the coil conductors 88 can indeed be changed somewhat mechanically by the aforementioned pressing process and the welding process, but not are weakened in such a way or changed in their cross-sectional geometry that they break, for example, during the operation of the drive motor 20, 120.

When the excitation coils 87 are inserted into the slots 89, they are covered by slot covers 180 closed.

The groove covers 180 have a profile body 181. The slot covers 180 are preferably made of plastic and / or an electrically insulating material. The profile body 181 is designed, for example, as a plastic part or a plastic wall body.

The profile body 181 forms a wall body 182 which, so to speak, represents a closing wall for a respective groove 89.

The groove cover 180 or the profile body 181 has a longitudinal shape and extends along a longitudinal axis L8 which runs parallel to a longitudinal axis L9 of the groove 89 when the groove cover 180 is mounted in the groove 89.

Longitudinal narrow sides or longitudinal sides 195 of the groove cover 180 extend along the longitudinal axis L8. The longitudinal sides 195 have a transverse spacing Q transversely to the longitudinal axis L8.

Longitudinal end regions 183 of the slot cover 180 preferably protrude up to the carrier body 90 in front of the laminated core 81, so that electrical insulation is provided over the entire length of a slot 89. There, for example, bonding, welding or the like other fastening to one or both of the bearing caps 21 or 22 is advantageous.

The groove cover 181 has a wall section 184 which completely covers the groove 88 transversely to the longitudinal axis L8. The wall section 184 is roughly U-shaped or arched in cross section, i.e. transverse to the longitudinal axis L8, and forms form-locking projections 186 on its transverse end regions, i.e. transverse to the longitudinal axis L8, which are intended to engage in the form-fit receptacles 89B of the grooves 89. At right angles to the longitudinal axis L8, the groove cover 180 has two form-locking receptacles 186, the sections protruding furthest transversely to the longitudinal axis L8 the groove cover 180 and / or are opposite to each other. The interlocking projections 186 and the interlocking receptacle 89B form interlocking contours 185, 89A, which hold the groove cover 180 transversely to the longitudinal axis L8, which at the same time represents the longitudinal axis of the groove 89, in the groove 89. The wall section 184 forms a trough-like shape between the form-fitting contours 185, that is to say has a bottom 187. The bottom 187 is arched into the respective groove 89, for example, and thus extends into it. Of course, a reverse configuration would also be possible, in which the wall section 184 does not protrude radially outward with respect to the axis of rotation D, but rather radially inward. There, however, it would possibly be in the way of the rotor 40, 140.

Side legs 188 extend away from wall section 184. The side legs 188 are inclined towards one another, i.e. their free end regions remote from the wall section 184 are inclined towards one another. Thus the side bars! 188 and the wall section 184 in the transition area to the sides extend 188 the form-locking contour 185, which is V-shaped in a side view, that is to say a form-locking projection 186.

The assembly of the slot cover 180 is as follows:

In itself it would be possible to insert the slot cover 180, for example from one of the end faces 84 or 85, into a respective slot 89 here, that is to say along a plug-in axis which runs parallel to the axis of rotation D. However, the interlocking contours 185 can be moved towards one another transversely to the longitudinal axis L8, so that a transverse distance Q between the interlocking contours 185 can be reduced so that the groove cover 180 can be moved past a side edge 89C of the groove 89 into the groove 89, see 21 to 23. In this case, the wall section 184 slides with its rounded outer side 189, i.e. on its side opposite the bottom 187, which forms a displacement contour 189A in this respect, past the side edge 89C, the wall section 184 yielding in a flexurally flexible manner, i.e. a flexurally flexible section 194 forms. The Side legs 188 and the form-fit contours 185 moved towards each other in the sense of a narrowing of the transverse distance Q and finally snap at the end of this plug-in movement SB the groove cover 180 into the groove 89, ie the form-fit contours 185 come into engagement with the form-fit contours 89A. The groove cover 180 is then positively received in the groove 89, namely in two mutually orthogonal directions transverse to the longitudinal axis L8.

A surface of the form-fit receptacle 89B facing away from the rotor receptacle 82 forms a grip-behind contour 89E. A surface of the form-fit receptacle 89B facing the rotor receptacle 82 forms a support contour 89F. The engagement contour 89E and / or the support contour 89F are preferably flat.

The engagement contour 89E and / or the support contour 89F preferably support the groove cover 180 over its entire longitudinal axis L8.

The side legs 188 have rear gripping surfaces 188A which are supported on the rear gripping contour 89E. Sections of the wall section 184 adjoining the side legs 188 have support surfaces 188B or form these support surfaces which are supported on the support contours 89F. Thus, the engagement contours 89A support the groove cover 180 in the direction of the interior of the rotor mount 82 or the axis of rotation D and the support contours 89F in the opposite direction, that is, in the radially outward direction with respect to the axis of rotation D or a base of the respective groove 89.

The advantage of this construction method also results from the fact that, for example, the carrier body 90 can protrude somewhat radially inward in the direction of the rotor receptacle 82 at the longitudinal end regions of the groove 89 when the groove covers 180 are mounted. Their longitudinal end regions 183 can then be brought into engagement behind in the direction of the rotor receptacle 82 of the protruding section of the carrier body 90. Furthermore, the grip surfaces 188A and the grip contours 89E as well as the support surfaces 188B and the support contours 89F lie flat against each other, so that a sealing seat or sealing of the groove 89 is realized and / or the groove cover 180 tightly closes the groove 89.

The groove covers 180 advantageously have a sealing function for sealing the grooves 89, but no support function for the excitation coils 87 of the excitation coil arrangement 86. The inclination of the engagement contours 89E and the engagement surfaces 188A actually act in the sense of a release bevel that occurs when force is applied to the groove cover 180 in a sense out of the groove 89 or radially inward with respect to the axis of rotation D causes a deformation or narrowing of the groove cover 180 and thus facilitates or enables it to be released from the groove 89.

An alternative exemplary embodiment according to FIG. 23B, which is only shown schematically, provides, for example, a groove 489 configured as an alternative to groove 89, into which a groove cover 480 is introduced. The groove cover 480 has form-fit receptacles 486 on its narrow longitudinal sides, which engage with form-fit projections 489B of the groove 489. The form-fit projections 489B are opposite one another. The form-fit receptacles 486 and the form-fit projections 489B are complementary to one another, for example V-shaped.

Surfaces of the form-fit projections 489B facing away from the rotor receptacle 82 form engagement contours 489E. The surfaces of the form-fit projections 489B facing the rotor receptacle 82 form support contours 489F. The rear gripping contour 489E and / or the supporting contour 489F are preferably flat. The engagement contour 489E and / or the support contour 489F preferably support the groove cover 480 over its entire longitudinal axis L8. The longitudinal sides of the groove cover 480 or the form-fit receptacles 486 have rear gripping surfaces 488A, which are supported on the rear gripping contours 489E. The form-fit receptacles 486 also have support surfaces 488B or form these support surfaces which are supported on the support contours 489F. The mechanical structure of the stator 80 is preferably completely or partially identical for both voltage levels P1 and P2. In particular, the Rotorauf acquisition 82 for the rotor 40, 140 is identical, that is, for example, has the same diameter. The design of the grooves 89, that is to say for example their form-fit contours 89A and / or their width and / or depth, are also identical. It is also advantageous if the slot cover 180 on the stator 80 can be used or used regardless of whether the excitation coil arrangement 86 is designed and / or arranged for the voltage P1 or the voltage P2.

This means that a largely identical part principle can be implemented. It is possible to provide the groove covers 180 as individual profile pieces, i. that they already have the elongated shape shown in FIG. 20 and have lengths corresponding to the length of the groove 89.

An advantageous embodiment, however, provides that the slot covers 180 are obtained from a roll material 190. The roll material 190 is available as a roll 191, for example. The roll 191 is rotatably received, for example, on a roll carrier 273, in particular a corresponding holding frame. An unwinding device 274 unwinds the roll material 190 from the reel 191.

A section 192 of the roll material 190 unwound from the roll 191 runs through, for example, a roll arrangement 275 with one or more rolls, in particular deflection rolls or guide rolls.

Downstream of the roller arrangement 275 a smoothing device 276 is provided in which the section 192 is smoothed so that its originally rounded shape on the roll 191 is converted into an elongated shape. The smoothing device 276 comprises, for example, at least one pressing element 277, in particular opposing pressing elements 277, and / or a heating device 278 with heating bodies 279 in order to bring the roll material 190 of the section 192 into an elongated shape, as shown in FIG is shown. Thus, the roll material 190 is brought by the Glättungseinrich device 276 in a straight, elongated shape.

The smoothing device 276 is followed by a cutting device 280, with which a length is cut from the section 192 that corresponds to a desired slot cover 180, for example the length of the laminated core 81 or the carrier body 90. The cutting device 280 has, for example, cutting elements 281, in particular Knives, blades, saw organs or the like.

At this point it should be mentioned that instead of the laminated core 181 or stator 80, other, i.e. shorter or longer stators can be provided with slot covers using the assembly device 270. If necessary, suitable slot covers 180 are produced, the length of which is adapted to the length of the stator to be fitted. The cutting member 280, for example a cutting knife, thus cuts a slot cover 180 from the section 192, which is then gripped by a holding member 271 and inserted into the stator 80.

The holding member 271, for example a gripper, comprises holding arms 272 which grip the profile body 181 or the groove cover 180 at their longitudinal end regions 183 and can insert them into the groove 89 by means of the insertion movement SB. Without further ado, it would be possible for the holding member 271 to have a suction device or a similar holding element which sucks the groove cover 180 in the area of the base 187 and inserts it into the groove 89 with a force component that generates the plugging movement SB.

It can therefore be seen that by plugging, joining, pressing and the like, essential components of the motor 20, 120 can be produced, namely, for example, the connection devices 100, the covering of the grooves 89 on the basis of the groove covers 180.

The magnetization of the magnets 51 described below also follows this assembly concept. The magnets 51 are not initially magnetized when they are mounted on the rotor 40, 140 or laminated core 41, 141. A magnetizable material 51 A of a respective magnet body 56 is therefore initially not magnetic when the magnet body 52, which is not yet magnetic, is inserted or pressed into one of the holding receptacles 45 as part of a plugging or pressing procedure. The magnetizable material 51 A is, for example, neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB), advantageously with an addition of dysprosium, or samarium-cobalt (SmCo).

Support projections 48 are provided on the holding receptacles 45, for example, which support narrow sides 54 of a respective magnet body 52. When the magnets 50 are mounted on the rotor 40, 140, the narrow sides 54 run parallel to the axis of rotation D. The magnet bodies 52 or magnets 51 are preferably clamped between the support projections 48.

Between the narrow sides 54, larger flat sides 53 extend than the narrow sides 54. Normal directions of the flat sides 53 are preferably radial to the axis of rotation D.

The laminated cores 41, 141 have holding projections 49 for holding the Magnetkör by 52. The holding projections 49 protrude, for example, toward the flat sides 53 and their free end regions bear against the flat sides 53. It is preferred if the holding projections 49 claw with the magnet body 52, so to speak, and / or form abutment projections.

The sheets 43 of the laminated cores 41, 141 include sheets 43 which aufwei sen in a vorbe certain angular position with respect to the axis of rotation D recesses 59A. The recesses 59A preferably extend radially with respect to the axis of rotation D away from one of the flat sides of the respective holding receptacle 45, for example radially inward toward the axis of rotation D. It is preferred if the recesses 59 A are arranged parallel to the axis of rotation D in an axis line one behind the other, that is to say are aligned with one another. Some of the metal sheets 43 have holding projections 59 protruding into the recesses. The holding projections 59 stand continue in the plug-in cross-section of a respective holding receptacle 45, so that when a magnet body 52 is inserted into a holding receptacle 45, they engage with the magnet body 52 and through the magnet body 52 in an insertion direction SR in which the magnet body 52 is inserted into the holding receptacle 45 to be bent. A retaining projection 59 can be displaced into the recess 59A of one or more adjacent metal sheets 43 into whoever. An end face of a respective retaining projection 59, which has the width of a narrow side of a metal sheet 43, is then supported at an inclined angle on the flat side 53 of the magnet body 52 and prevents the magnet body 52 from being pulled out of the retaining receptacle 45 against the insertion direction SR.

The magnet bodies 52 or magnets 51 are preferably received in the holding receptacle 45 with a press fit. Of course, gluing, welding or other similar assembly would be entirely possible. The magnetizable material 51 A is thus inserted into the respective laminated core 41, 141 in the not yet magnetized state.

The rotor 40, 140 is then balanced using a balancing device 285. The motor shaft 30, 130 and possibly the insulating sleeve 60 are already mounted. The rotor 40, 140 can therefore be rotated about its axis of rotation D with the aid of a motor 286 using the motor shaft 30, 130. A measuring device 287 determines, for example, imbalances in the rotor 40, 140.

Imbalances that still exist are then eliminated by at least one balancing section 55 being produced, for example, using a material-reducing device 288, for example a grinding device, a milling device or the like. For example, where balancing is necessary, material of the laminated core 41, 141 is removed, with chips, metal dust or the like being produced. But this is not a problem, since the magnetic bodies 52 are not yet magnetized when the material of the laminated core 41, 141 is being worked. The chips, dusts or the like that arise from the removal of the metal sheets 43 do not adhere magnetically to the laminated core 41, 141, so that they can be easily removed. During later operation of the drive motor 20, 120 are then there are no metal chips or dust that could damage the bearings 24 or 25, for example.

It is advantageous if the balancing parts 55 are attached to those areas of the laminated core 41, 141 where the laminated core 41, 141 has the greatest possible material thickness or thickness in the radial direction with respect to the axis of rotation D, ie in particular radially outside with respect to the magnets 51. If, for example, an unbalance U occurs in an area that is unfavorable for producing a balancing section, vectorial balancing is preferred, in which the unbalance U is broken down into force vectors Ux and Uy and this is accordingly done by the material-reducing device 288, for example, balancing sections 55x and 55y can be produced radially on the outside of the laminated core 41, 141. The balancing parts 55x and 55y are located, for example, radially outside on the laminated core 41, 141 of holding receptacles 55, which are arranged at an angular distance from the unbalance U directly next to the same. In the case of the rotor 40, 140 there are no balancing bodies or on the end faces 44

Balancing weights necessary. As a result, for example, the inflow openings and outflow openings of the air ducts 46 are not covered by balancing weights or balancing bodies. Furthermore, air can also flow laterally past the magnets 51, namely through air ducts 46A which are provided on the holding receptacles 45 or are provided by the holding receptacles 45. The inflow openings and outflow openings of the air ducts 46A are not covered by balancing bodies or balancing weights

A cleaning device 289, for example a blower device, a brush device and / or a vacuum cleaner or the like, can easily remove the metallic particles produced by the material-reducing device 288 during the material removal from the rotor 40, 140, in particular the respective laminated package 41, 141 as long as the magnetic bodies 52 are not magnetic. For example, the cleaning device 289 generates an air jet LU which removes chips and the like from the area of the balancing section 55. When the rotor 40, 140 is balanced, it is magnetized using a magnetization device 290, ie in particular the magnetic bodies 52 are activated magnetically. The magnetization device 290 has magnetization heads 291 A, 291 B, 291 C, 291 D, for example. For example, the magnetization device 290 comprises a positioning device 292 which positions, in particular rotates, the motor shaft 30, 130 in such a way that the magnets 51 lie opposite the magnetization heads 291 at exactly the right angle.

The rotor 40, 140 is advantageously positioned on the basis of a mechanical coding 57 with respect to the magnetizing heads 291 A, 291 B, 291 C, 291 D that one magnetizing head 291 A, 291 B, 291 C, 291 D each between adjacent magnets 51 is arranged.

For example, the anti-rotation contour 74 serves as the coding 57, which strikes, for example, a stop 293, in particular a rotary stop, of the magnetization device 290, so that the rotor 40, 140 is arranged at the correct angle of rotation with respect to the magnetization heads 291. The stop 293 is shown in connection with the balancing device 285. However, other components of the rotor 40 can readily serve as coding 57, for example the air ducts 46, into which corresponding stops of the magnetizing device 290 can engage and / or which can be optically detected. Optical detection of the angular position of the rotor 40 is also advantageous,

140 possible, e.g. by a camera or the like, other optical sensor of the magnetization device 290.

The magnetizing heads 291 A, 291 B, 291 C, 291 D generate magnetic fields MFA, MFB, MFC, MFD, which penetrate the magnetic bodies 52 or magnets 51 arranged next to one another at an angular distance with respect to the axis of rotation D, so that they are permanently magnetized and form magnetic poles, which are indicated as north poles N and south poles S. The magnetic Fields MFA, MFB, MFC, MFD are indicated in dashed field lines with arrows corresponding to their magnetic flux direction in the drawing.

When the magnets 51 of the rotors 40, 140 are magnetized, the rotors 40, 140 are mounted on the stator 80. It goes without saying that several magnetic bodies 52 or magnets 51 can also be arranged in the fold receptacles 45 for the magnets 51, for example a series arrangement of two or more magnetic bodies 52 or magnets 51 parallel to the axis of rotation D. In this case, too, a magnetization of the respective Magnetic bodies 52 are easily possible if they are already received in the fold receptacles 45.

When magnetizing by the magnetizing device 290, it is also advantageous that the metal sheets 43 of the laminated cores 41, 141 are magnetically conductive, so that they can optimally pass the magnetic fields 292 of the magnetizing device 290 through the magnetic body 52.
