- the publication DE 199 30 911 CI for example, is known from the prior art.
- the se describes an internal gear fluid machine for reverse operation in a closed circuit; with an externally toothed pinion; with an internally toothed ring gear that meshes with the pinion; with a housing; with a filling that fills the crescent-shaped space between the pinion and ring gear; the filling comprises two identical filling pieces; a stop pin is provided which is mounted in the housing and against which the filler pieces are supported with their end faces.
- axial washers are provided on both sides of the pinion.
- An axial pressure field is provided between the outside of each thrust washer and the relevant housing wall, and a control field is provided between the inside of each thrust washer and the pinion.
- At least one control slot is connected to the control panel, which tapers towards its free end.
- the publication DE 10 2008 053 318 A1 discloses a reversibly operable toothed wheel machine, comprising a housing in which two toothed wheels are arranged.
- a first bearing chamber and a second bearing chamber are provided, with the first bearing chamber in a first operating direction of the gear machine and the first bearing chamber in an opposite second operating direction direction is applied to the second bearing chamber with a hydraulic fluid pressure and forms a hydrostatic bearing for a gear.
- a vehicle steering system comprising a hydraulic circuit, a hydraulic cylinder and a gear machine that works as a pump and in its first operating direction acts on a first working chamber and in its second operating direction a second working chamber of the hydraulic cylinder with hydraulic pressure.
- the second gear wheel is surrounded at least in regions in the circumferential direction to form a hydrostatic bearing by at least one bearing recess formed in the machine housing, which recess at least partially overlaps the second gear wheel in the axial direction and is connected via a fluid line that has a flow resistance a fluid connection of the internal gear fluid machine is fluidically connected.
- the internal gear fluid machine represents a fluid delivery device and serves to deliver a fluid, for example a liquid or a gas.
- the internal gear fluid machine has two gears, namely the first gear and the second gear.
- the first gear can also be referred to as a pinion and the second gear as a ring gear.
- the pinion has the external teeth and the ring gear has the internal teeth. Viewed in the circumferential direction, the external toothing and the internal toothing engage in one another in regions, ie mesh with one another in regions, namely in the engagement region.
- the two gears are provided for conveying fluid and for this reason are designed in such a way that they interact during a rotary movement for conveying the fluid and thereby engage in one another or mesh with one another.
- the first gear is preferably coupled to an input shaft or drive shaft of the internal gear fluid machine, preferably on the one hand rigidly and/or on the other hand detachably or permanently.
- detachable coupling there is, for example, a plug-in pinion that is pushed onto the drive shaft and can be detached from it without being damaged.
- the first gear wheel is rotatably mounted in a machine housing of the internal gear wheel fluid machine by means of the input shaft.
- the first gear is preferably arranged on the input shaft so that it always has the same speed as the input shaft during operation of the internal gear fluid machine.
- Both the first gear and the second gear are net angeord in the machine housing and rotatably mounted in this.
- the first gear wheel is mounted such that it can rotate about the first axis of rotation
- the second gear wheel is mounted so that it can rotate about the second axis of rotation.
- the first axis of rotation can also be referred to as the axis of rotation of the pinion and the second axis of rotation as the axis of rotation of the ring gear. Seen in cross section, i.e.
- the first gear wheel is arranged in the second gear wheel in such a way that the external toothing of the first gear wheel meshes with the internal toothing of the second gear wheel in the meshing area or is in engagement with it .
- the engagement area is fixed to the housing, for example, so it does not rotate with the first gear wheel or the second gear wheel.
- a tooth of one of the toothings engages in an interdental space of the respective other of the toothings.
- the space between the teeth is delimited in the circumferential direction by the teeth of the respective toothing.
- a tooth of the internal toothing engages in a tooth space of the external toothing or, conversely, a tooth of the external toothing engages in a tooth space of the internal toothing.
- the internal toothing and the external toothing act together in a sealing manner.
- the filler piece is arranged on the other side of the engagement area, ie preferably on the side diametrically opposite the engagement area with respect to the first axis of rotation and/or the second axis of rotation.
- the filler piece is present between the first gear wheel and the second gear wheel or, to put it another way, between the external toothing of the first gear wheel and the internal toothing of the second gear wheel.
- the filler piece is therefore net angeord in a fluid space, which is delimited in the radial direction inwards by the first gear wheel and in the radial direction outwards by the second gear wheel, in each case with respect to the first axis of rotation or the second axis of rotation.
- the filler piece rests on the one hand on the external toothing and on the other hand on the internal toothing. More specifically, the filler piece is sealingly against the tips of the teeth of the external teeth and you tend to the tips of the teeth of the internal teeth to divide the fluid space into the first fluid chamber and the second fluid chamber. Viewed in the circumferential direction, each of the two fluid chambers is therefore delimited on the one hand by the filling piece and on the other hand by the tight meshing of the external toothing and the internal toothing in the engagement region.
- one of the fluid chambers serves as a suction chamber and the other of the fluid chambers serves as a pressure chamber.
- the suction chamber can also be referred to as the inlet chamber and the pressure chamber as the outlet chamber; it is crucial that the fluid is always conveyed from the inlet chamber in the direction of the outlet chamber during the operation of the internal gear fluid machine.
- the pressure present in the inlet chamber is always lower than the pressure in the outlet chamber.
- the pressure in the inlet chamber can already be (significantly) greater than ambient pressure. For example, pressurized fluid is pumped from the inlet chamber toward the outlet chamber with the help of the internal gear fluid machine.
- the internal gear fluid machine is in the form of a motor or is being operated as a motor, fluid is supplied to the pressure chamber and enters the suction chamber, causing the gears to rotate.
- the pressure chamber is the inlet chamber and the suction chamber is the outlet chamber; the pressure in the inlet chamber is higher than the pressure in the outlet chamber.
- the suction chamber can also be referred to as a low-pressure chamber and the pressure chamber can also be referred to as a high-pressure chamber.
- the suction side of the internal gear unit corresponds to a low-pressure side te and the pressure side of a high pressure side.
- the terms “low pressure” and “high pressure” are not to be understood as meaning a restriction to a specific pressure level; rather, the pressure in the high-pressure chamber or on the high-pressure side is only relatively higher than the pressure in the low-pressure chamber or on the low-pressure side.
- the filling piece is preferably designed in several parts and in this respect has several segments.
- the segments of the filler piece are arranged side by side in the radial direction, so that a first segment is arranged on the side of a second segment facing the first gear and, conversely, the second segment is arranged on the side of the first segment facing the second gear.
- the first segment is in sealing contact with the first gear wheel or its external toothing and the second segment is in contact with the second gear wheel or the internal toothing of the second gear wheel.
- the two segments can preferably be displaced relative to one another in the radial direction.
- a gap present between them is acted upon by fluid pressure during operation of the internal gear fluid machine in such a way that the first segment is urged in the direction of the first gear and the second segment is urged in the direction of the second gear, so that the segments on the respective gear or the Tooth tips of the corresponding gearing make a tight fit.
- the internal gear fluid machine is thus radially compensated or gap-compensated in the radial direction.
- Each of the segments can be further subdivided into segments.
- the first segment is in one piece or consists of at least two segments and/or the second segment is in one piece or consists of at least two segments.
- These segments of the filling piece are also preferably mounted such that they can be displaced relative to one another, and can therefore be displaced independently of one another. This achieves a particularly effective gap compensation.
- the internal gear fluid machine has the machine case.
- the two gears of the internal gear fluid machine are arranged between housing walls of the machine housing.
- One of the housing walls is therefore on a first side of the gears and a second of the Ge housing walls on a side of the gears opposite the first side in the axial direction, so that the housing walls take the gears between them as seen in the axial direction.
- a gap remaining between the housing walls and the gear wheels is dimensioned so small that the housing walls ensure adequate sealing of the flow cause idraums or the fluid chambers.
- the gears are mounted on and/or in the machine housing.
- the second gear wheel is partially encompassed by the at least one bearing recess formed in the machine housing.
- the bearing recess is designed in such a way that it at least partially, in particular only partially, overlaps the second gear in the axial direction and is in particular arranged completely in overlap with the second gear.
- the bearing recess thus not only has a smaller extent than the second gear in the axial direction, but is also arranged such that the ends delimiting the bearing recess in the axial direction are arranged in overlap with the second gear, viewed in the axial direction. The bearing recess therefore does not protrude beyond the second gear wheel in the axial direction.
- the bearing recess is in the form of a groove or channel formed in the machine housing and running in the circumferential direction.
- the bearing recess surrounds the second gear wheel in the circumferential direction by at least 30°, at least 60°, at least 90°, at least 120° or at least 150°.
- the bearing recess can also be significantly smaller in the circumferential direction and encompass the second gear wheel in this direction by less than 30°, in particular by at most 15°, at most 10° or at most 5°.
- the bearing recess is designed as a round bore, for example.
- the bearing recess is used to form the hydrostatic bearing or a hydrostatic bearing for the second gear.
- the bearing recesses are at least intermittently subjected to pressurized fluid such that the second gear is urged radially away from the machine housing. This creates a fluid film between the second gear wheel and the machine housing, which causes a particularly loss-free mounting of the second gear wheel.
- the pressure present in the bearing recess counteracts the pressure present in the pressure chamber.
- the bearing recess is arranged and/or designed accordingly.
- a force exerted on the second gear by the fluid present in the bearing recess is at least as much as large as a force exerted on the second gear from the fluid present in the pressure chamber.
- the former force is at least 50%, at least 60%, at least 70%, at least 80% or at least 90% of the latter force.
- the flow resistance is present between the fluid connection and the bearing recesses, which causes a reduction in the pressure.
- the flow resistance is preferably in the form of a cross-sectional constriction.
- a flow cross-sectional area is preferably identical in terms of flow technology before and after the flow resistance or the cross-sectional constriction. This means that the narrowing of the cross section is only present in sections, in particular it does not extend directly to the bearing recesses. Rather, the flow cross-sectional area decreases in the area of the cross-sectional constriction and then increases again, in particular likewise in the area of the cross-sectional constriction.
- a ratio between a length and a width or a diameter of the cross-sectional constriction is at most 25, at most 20 or at most 15. However, the ratio is preferably at most 10 or at most 5.
- the width or the diameter is the smallest dimension of the cross-sectional constriction to understand about their extent.
- a fluid loss from the bearing recess in the direction of a return flow is reduced by means of the flow resistance.
- the flow resistance can easily be provided since the pressure of the fluid available on the pressure side of the internal gear fluid machine is usually more than sufficient to achieve adequate support. It is therefore possible to reduce the pressure without deteriorating the quality of storage.
- the reduction in pressure in turn causes a reduction in flow, so that a smaller quantity of fluid is discharged via the bearing depressions in the direction of the return or into the return.
- the flow resistance is preferably designed in such a way that the amount of fluid per unit of time discharged from the bearing recess into the return corresponds to at most 50%, at most 40%, at most 30% or at most 25% of the total amount of fluid occurring in the return per unit of time.
- Such a dimensioning of the flow resistance is suitable in any case in order to realize a sufficient mounting of the second gear wheel in the machine housing.
- the amount of fluid per unit of time can also be higher and for example, no more than 75%, no more than 70%, no more than 75%, no more than 60% or no more than 55% of the stated size.
- the smaller values are preferred because with them the loss of fluid can be clearly limited with sufficient quality of the bearing.
- dimensions of the flow resistance are dependent on a diameter of the second gear wheel or a root circle diameter of the internal toothing. Provision can be made for the dimensions to be selected depending on an extension of the bearing recess in the circumferential direction and/or in the axial direction.
- a dependency on the bearing clearance and/or on an extension of the bearing webs in the axial direction can be provided.
- a connection with a displacement volume of the internal gear fluid machine is also provided.
- the bearing recess is fluidically connected to both fluid connections, in particular via a flow resistance in each case.
- a flow resistance in each case.
- the bearing recess completely surrounds the second gear wheel in the circumferential direction. Preferably, however, it partially surrounds the second gear in the circumferential direction.
- there are two bearing depressions spaced apart from one another in the circumferential direction the two bearing depressions are therefore spaced apart from one another on both sides in the circumferential direction.
- the bearing recesses are arranged symmetrically in cross-section with respect to an imaginary plane which accommodates the axis of rotation of the second toothed wheel and/or the axis of rotation of the second toothed wheel.
- the bearing cavities are fluidically connected to different fluid connections, preferably each had a flow resisted.
- a first of the bearings is fluidly connected to a first fluid port via a first flow resistance and a second of the bearing wells to a second fluid port of the internal gear fluid machine via a first flow resistance.
- each of the bearing recesses is connected to the corresponding fluid connection directly via the respective flow resistance and is only indirectly connected to the other fluid connection, in particular via the fluid space or one or more of the fluid chambers.
- a flow connection can also be present outside of the internal gear fluid machine.
- one of the bearing recesses is always technically connected to the pressure side and another of the bearing recesses to the suction side of the internal gear fluid machine flow. As a result, a balance of forces is achieved within the internal gear fluid machine, resulting in a particularly high level of efficiency.
- the flow resistance is arranged in the fluid line, via which the respective bearing wells is in flow connection with the corresponding fluid connection.
- the bearing recesses are each connected to the corresponding fluid connection via a fluid line, with a flow resistor being arranged in each of the fluid lines. All statements relating to the bearing recess within the scope of this description are preferably optionally applicable to each of the multiple bearing recesses, if they are present.
- a single bearing recess is formed in the housing Maschinenge, which constantly surrounds the second gear in the circumferential direction only partially or fully.
- This bearing recess is fluidically connected to the fluid port of the internal gear fluid machine.
- the single bearing recess is fluidically connected to a plurality of fluid connections, in particular to a fluid connection on the pressure side and a fluid connection on the suction side of the internal gear fluid machine.
- the bearing recess overlaps the second gear wheel only partially, so that conversely the second gear wheel completely overlaps the bearing recess in the axial direction.
- the bearing recess is delimited on both sides in the axial direction by bearing webs, which are formed to overlap with the bearing recess in the circumferential direction and have at least the same extent as the bearing recess.
- each of the bearing recesses has such bearing webs.
- the second gear is in sealing contact with the bearing webs, in particular in the circumferential direction overlapping the bearing recesses continuously, or the second gear is at a smaller distance from the bearing webs than from a base of the bearing recess, which extends the bearing recess into that facing away from the second gear Limited direction, so in particular in the radial direction to the outside.
- the second gear has a bearing clearance, i.e.
- a distance in the radial direction from the bearing webs of no more than 0.25 mm, no more than 0.2 mm, no more than 0.15 mm, no more than 0.1 mm, no more than 0.075 mm or no more than 0 05mm up. Distances of at most 0.1 mm and less are preferred here.
- the internal gear fluid machine described enables the second gear to be mounted in the machine housing in a particularly effective and loss-free manner. At the same time, excessive fluid losses, which can occur due to the use of the fluid to implement the hydrostatic bearing, are effectively avoided by the flow resistance.
- the flow resistance causes a pressure loss between the fluid connection and the bearing recesses, so that the pressure of the fluid in the bearing recesses is lower than the pressure of the fluid at the fluid connection. However, the fluid pressure remaining in the bearing recesses is sufficient to support the second gear.
- the flow resistance is preferably configured or dimensioned accordingly.
- the internal gear fluid machine is in flow communication with a first chamber of a working cylinder on the one hand and with a second chamber of the working cylinder on the other hand.
- the first chamber of the working cylinder is connected to a first of the fluid chambers. numbers and the second chamber of the working cylinder to a second of the fluid chambers fluidically connected.
- mechanical energy can be converted into a force acting on a working piston arranged in the working cylinder, or a force acting on the working piston can be converted into mechanical energy.
- the arrangement of the internal gear fluid machine in the working cylinder is operated at times to convert the mechanical energy into power and at times to convert the force into mechanical energy.
- the working cylinder is preferably designed as a hydraulic cylinder; in this case a liquid, in particular oil, is used as the fluid.
- the arrangement of internal gear fluid machine and working cylinder is, for example, part of an industrial truck, in particular a forklift, or a construction machine or construction equipment, in particular an excavator.
- the invention also relates to such an arrangement of internal gear fluid machine and working cylinder as well as a method for operating such an arrangement. Reference is also made to the further explanations within the scope of this description.
- the flow resistance is present in the form of a flow orifice, a flow throttle or a flow nozzle.
- An orifice means an abrupt narrowing of the cross-section, i.e. the flow cross-sectional area suddenly decreases at the beginning of the orifice and widens again just as suddenly at the end of the orifice, in particular down to the same flow cross-sectional area as in front of the orifice.
- the orifice has a ratio of the length of the cross-sectional constriction in the direction of flow to the width or diameter of at most 2, at most 1.5 or at most 1.
- the statements made for the orifice plate apply to the choke, with the difference that the ratio of length to width or diameter is greater for them.
- the ratio is at least 2 or is greater than 2.
- a ratio of at least 3, at least 4 or at least 5 is used.
- the nozzle is a constriction in which the flow cross-sectional area decreases continuously until it reaches a minimum. Downstream of the minimum through-flow cross-sectional area, the through-flow cross-sectional area widens again. This can be done suddenly or continuously.
- the flow resistance has a diffuser in addition to the nozzle.
- the nozzle and the diffuser are designed symmetrically or in mirror image, i.e. have the same longitudinal ckung and the same gradient of the flow cross-sectional area over the longitudinal extent. The use of the nozzle and the diffuser allows an effective reduction of the pressure or throughput without excessive losses.
- a development of the invention provides that the fluid line, starting from the bearing recess, runs outwards in the radial direction and/or is continuously straight.
- the Fluidlei device opens directly into the bearing recess.
- the fluid line can also open directly into the fluid connection or, alternatively, can only be connected indirectly to the fluid connection via a further line.
- the fluid line runs outwards in the radial direction, starting from the bearing recess, preferably exactly in the radial direction. This means that a longitudinal center axis of the fluid line is perpendicular to an imaginary plane containing the axis of rotation of the first gear wheel and the axis of rotation of the second gear wheel.
- the fluid line is straight throughout. This means in particular that the longitudinal center axis of the fluid line is continuously straight. The straight course ensures a low pressure loss across the fluid line, so that this configuration also serves to introduce the fluid into the bearing recess with high efficiency.
- a further development of the invention provides that the fluid line opens out in the radial direction inwards into the bearing recess by reaching through a base of the bearing recesses, forming an orifice opening.
- the floor delimits the bearing recess in the direction away from the second gear.
- the floor is formed from the machine housing.
- the bearing recess is thus limited in the radially outward direction from the bottom and is in the radial direction inward and correspondingly in the direction of the second gear of FEN.
- the bearing recess is preferably bounded on opposite sides by walls which are angled relative to the floor. The walls delimiting the bearing recess preferably run parallel to one another.
- the bearing recess has an axial extent which increases or decreases in the direction of the second gear wheel or in the direction facing away from the floor.
- the bearing depression is, for example, trapezoidal when viewed in section.
- the fluid line passes through the bottom of the bearing well. In doing so, it forms the mouth opening.
- the Fluidlei device opens via the orifice in the bearing recess, wherein the orifice in the floor is formed.
- Such a configuration also serves to efficiently introduce the fluid into the bearing recess and to avoid excessive pressure losses.
- a development of the invention provides that the fluid line, on its side facing away from the bearing recess, opens into a connecting channel of larger dimensions, via which it is fluidically connected to the fluid connection. It has already been pointed out that the fluid line can be flow-connected to the fluid connection either directly or only indirectly. In the case of the only indirect connection of the fluid line to the fluid connection, the fluid line is flow-connected to the fluid connection via the connecting channel.
- the fluid line opens directly into the connecting channel, namely in particular in the radial direction.
- a central longitudinal axis of the fluid line is preferably angled with respect to a central longitudinal axis of the connecting channel, so the two central longitudinal axes form an angle with one another that is greater than 0° and smaller than 180°. The angle is preferably at least 45° and at most 135°, at least 60° and at most 120°, at least 75° and at most 105° or approximately or exactly 90°.
- the connecting channel can be continuously straight, that is to say run continuously straight between the point at which the fluid line opens into it and the fluid connection.
- the connecting channel can also have at least one bend or curvature.
- the fluid line preferably opens into a straight area of the connecting channel.
- the connecting channel opens into the fluid connection on its side facing away from the fluid line, ie it is directly connected to it in terms of flow.
- the connecting channel opens into the fluid port in the radial direction, so that the longitudinal center axis of the connecting channel is angled relative to a longitudinal center axis of the fluid port.
- the connecting channel has larger dimensions than the fluid line, in particular its flow cross section is larger than a flow cross section of the fluid line.
- a particularly low pressure loss is achieved here, so that the fluid line is fluidically connected particularly effectively to the fluid connection.
- the largest flow cross-sectional area of the connecting channel over its extent is greater than the largest flow cross-sectional area of the fluid channel over its extent by a factor of at least 2, at least 3, at least 4 or at least 5.
- a development of the invention provides that the cross-sectional constriction is formed only locally in the fluid line, so that a flow cross-section of the fluid line on both sides of the cross-sectional constriction is larger than a flow cross-section in the region of the cross-sectional constriction.
- the cross-sectional constriction is present in the fluid line and temporarily reduces its cross-sectional flow area. This means that the fluid line as a whole cannot be regarded as a cross-sectional constriction, even if its through-flow cross-sectional area is possibly smaller than the through-flow cross-sectional area of elements which are fluidically connected to the fluid line. For example, the flow cross-sectional area of the connecting channel may be larger than that of the fluid line. Nevertheless, the fluid line itself is not the flow resistance, but the cross-sectional constriction is present in the fluid line.
- the fluid line On both sides of the cross-sectional constriction, the fluid line has a flow cross-sectional area that is larger than the flow cross-sectional area of the cross-sectional constriction or the flow resistance.
- the flow cross-sectional area of the fluid line on both sides of the cross-sectional constriction is greater by a factor of at least 5, at least 7.5, at least 10, at least 12.5, at least 15 or at least 20 than the flow cross-sectional area of the cross-sectional constriction.
- the flow cross-sectional area of the cross-sectional constriction here means the smallest flow cross-sectional area of the cross-sectional constriction over its extent.
- a further development of the invention provides that the Fager depression is technically connected on its side facing away from the fluid line in terms of flow via a Feckage gap to a return recess of the internal gear fluid machine flow, which is in flow connection directly with a suction side of the internal gear fluid machine and/or a fluid tank.
- the Fager depression is fluidically connected to a return of the internal gear fluid machine, via which fluid is discharged, namely in the direction of the suction side of the internal gear fluid machine and/or in the direction of the fluid tank.
- Feckage fluid is collected in the return, that is to say fluid which occurs in the internal gear fluid machine due to faults in the latter.
- the fluid is discharged in the direction of the suction side and/or the fluid tank, preferably in such a way that it is conveyed again by the internal gear fluid machine in the direction of the pressure side.
- the fluid tank is fluidically connected to the suction side of the internal gear fluid machine for this purpose.
- the fluid tank can be part of the internal gear be fluid machine or be separate from it.
- the internal gear fluid machine and the fluid tank are part of a corresponding arrangement.

Provision can be made for the filler piece to taper only on one side, ie on its side facing the axial opening or one of the axial openings. However, it particularly preferably tapers on both sides, so that the inflow or outflow can take place efficiently through the axial opening or both axial openings.
