Description

本発明は、回転軌道輪の回転の原点を検出可能な回転センサ付き転がり軸受に関する。   The present invention relates to a rolling bearing with a rotation sensor capable of detecting the origin of rotation of a rotating raceway.

There is a rolling bearing with a rotation sensor in which an element is mounted to detect the rotation of a rotating race.

この回転センサ付き転がり軸受には、磁気エンコーダに同心のリング状で互いに隣接する第1および第2の被検出部を設け、第1の被検出部を円周方向で交互に異なる磁極に着磁するとともに、第2の被検出部を円周方向の1箇所で、回転軌道輪の回転の原点検出用に、いずれかの磁極に着磁し、この磁気エンコーダの第1および第2の被検出部からの各磁束の変化をそれぞれ検出する第1および第2のセンサ素子を固定軌道輪に装着して、第1のセンサ素子で回転軌道輪の回転速度(回転数)を検出し、第2のセンサ素子で回転軌道輪の回転の原点を検出するようにしたものがある(例えば、特許文献1参照)。   In this rolling bearing with a rotation sensor, a magnetic encoder is provided with first and second detected portions adjacent to each other in a concentric ring shape, and the first detected portions are magnetized to magnetic poles that are alternately different in the circumferential direction. In addition, the second detected portion is magnetized to one of the magnetic poles at one place in the circumferential direction for detecting the origin of rotation of the rotating raceway, and the first and second detected portions of this magnetic encoder First and second sensor elements for detecting changes in each magnetic flux from the section are mounted on the fixed raceway, and the first sensor element detects the rotational speed (number of rotations) of the rotary raceway, and the second There is a sensor element that detects the origin of rotation of a rotating race (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

特許文献1に記載された磁気エンコーダの第2の被検出部の原点検出用着磁部以外の残りの円周方向部分を薄肉に形成した回転センサ付き転がり軸受は、第2の被検出部を容易に着磁して、回転軌道輪の回転の原点を検出できるが、モータ等の磁界が発生する機器に組み込まれて使用されると、機器から漏洩する磁束が第2の被検出部の薄肉に形成された残りの円周方向部分を通過することがあり、第2の被検出部からの磁束の変化を検出する第2のセンサ素子が、本来は磁束を発生しない残りの円周方向部分を通過する漏洩磁束を検出して、回転の原点を誤検出する恐れがある。   The rolling sensor-equipped rolling bearing in which the remaining circumferential portion other than the origin detecting magnetized portion of the second detected portion of the magnetic encoder described in Patent Document 1 is thinly formed is provided with the second detected portion. It can be easily magnetized and the origin of rotation of the rotating raceway can be detected. However, when used in a device that generates a magnetic field such as a motor, the magnetic flux leaking from the device is thin in the second detected part. The second sensor element that detects the change in the magnetic flux from the second detected portion may pass through the remaining circumferential portion formed in the first portion, and the remaining circumferential portion that does not originally generate the magnetic flux. There is a possibility that the origin of rotation is erroneously detected by detecting the leakage magnetic flux passing through.

By magnetizing a magnetic pole different from that of the magnetic pole, a magnetic flux of a magnetic pole different from that of the origin detecting magnetized portion is positively generated from the remaining circumferential portion, and is used by being incorporated in a device that generates a magnetic field.

以下、図面に基づき、本発明の実施形態を説明する。図1乃至図3は、第1の実施形態を示す。この回転センサ付き転がり軸受はモータの主軸を支持する深溝玉軸受であり、図1に示すように、回転軌道輪としての内輪1と固定軌道輪としての外輪2の間の軸受空間に、ボール3が保持器4で保持されて、軸受空間の一端側がシール5でシールされており、シール5でシールされた側と反対側で、内輪1に磁気エンコーダ6が装着され、外輪2に磁気エンコーダ6の回転に伴う磁束の変化を検出するセンサユニット7が装着されている。   Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 to 3 show a first embodiment. This rolling bearing with a rotation sensor is a deep groove ball bearing that supports the main shaft of the motor. As shown in FIG. 1, a ball 3 is provided in a bearing space between an inner ring 1 as a rotating raceway and an outer ring 2 as a fixed raceway. Is held by the cage 4, and one end side of the bearing space is sealed with a seal 5. A magnetic encoder 6 is mounted on the inner ring 1 on the side opposite to the side sealed with the seal 5, and the magnetic encoder 6 is mounted on the outer ring 2. A sensor unit 7 for detecting a change in magnetic flux accompanying the rotation of is mounted.

前記磁気エンコーダ6は、磁性材料をゴムで結合して円筒状に成形したものであり、内輪1の外径面端部に圧入で固定された芯金8の外径面に加硫接着されている。図2に示すように、磁気エンコーダ6は、互いに軸方向で隣接する第1の被検出部6aと第2の被検出部6bを有し、第1の被検出部6aは、円周方向で交互にN極とS極との異なる磁極に着磁され、第2の被検出部6bは、円周方向の1箇所が内輪1の回転の原点検出用着磁部9aとしてS極に着磁され、残りの円周方向部分9bがこれと異なるN極に着磁されている。第1および第2の被検出部6a、6bは同じ厚さに形成され、S極とされた第2の被検出部6bの原点検出用着磁部9aは、第1の被検出部6aの1つのS極と同じ幅で軸方向に連なっている。   The magnetic encoder 6 is formed by combining magnetic materials with rubber and is formed into a cylindrical shape. The magnetic encoder 6 is vulcanized and bonded to an outer diameter surface of a cored bar 8 fixed by press-fitting to an outer diameter surface end of the inner ring 1. Yes. As shown in FIG. 2, the magnetic encoder 6 includes a first detected portion 6a and a second detected portion 6b that are adjacent to each other in the axial direction, and the first detected portion 6a is arranged in the circumferential direction. The second detected portion 6b is magnetized on the S pole as one origin detection magnetizing portion 9a for rotating the inner ring 1 at one place in the circumferential direction. The remaining circumferential portion 9b is magnetized with a different N pole. The first and second detected parts 6a and 6b are formed to have the same thickness, and the origin detecting magnetized part 9a of the second detected part 6b having the S pole is the same as that of the first detected part 6a. It is continuous in the axial direction with the same width as one S pole.

前記センサユニット7は、図1に示したように、外輪2の内径面端部に圧入で固定された外径側の金属ケース10と内径側の樹脂ケース11の間に、第1および第2のセンサ素子12a、12bを組み込んだものであり、第1のセンサ素子12aが磁気エンコーダ6の第1の被検出部6aと、第2のセンサ素子12bが第2の被検出部6bと、それぞれ半径方向で対向するようにモールドで固定されている。なお、磁気エンコーダ6の芯金8と平行に沿う樹脂ケース11の先端部には内向きの鍔11aが設けられ、磁気エンコーダ6の芯金8とセンサユニット7の樹脂ケース11との間に、軸受空間をシールするラビリンス隙間が形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 1, the sensor unit 7 includes first and second portions between an outer diameter side metal case 10 and an inner diameter side resin case 11 fixed by press-fitting to the inner diameter surface end of the outer ring 2.

図3(a)、(b)は、前記磁気エンコーダ6が内輪1と一緒に回転したときに、それぞれ第1および第2のセンサ素子12a、12bで検出される磁束の変化を示す。図3(a)に示すように、第1のセンサ素子12aで検出される磁束は、第1の被検出部6aのN極とS極が交互に通過する毎にN極側とS極側へ波状に変化し、磁束がN極側とS極側の各閾値WN1、WS1を越えたときに、回転単位が積算されて回転速度が検出される。 3A and 3B show changes in magnetic flux detected by the first and second sensor elements 12a and 12b, respectively, when the magnetic encoder 6 rotates together with the inner ring 1. FIG. As shown in FIG. 3 (a), the magnetic flux detected by the first sensor element 12a is N pole side and S pole side every time the N pole and S pole of the first detected portion 6a pass alternately. When the magnetic flux changes to a wave shape and the magnetic flux exceeds the respective threshold values W N1 and W S1 on the N pole side and the S pole side, the rotation units are integrated and the rotation speed is detected.

また、図3(b)に示すように、第2のセンサ素子12bで検出される磁束は、第2の被検出部6bの原点検出用着磁部9aが通過するときだけS極側へ変化し、残りの円周方向部分9bが通過する間はN極側で一定に保持される。この場合は、磁束がS極側へ変化して閾値WS2を越え、さらに磁束がN極側へ戻って閾値WN2を越えたときに、原点の通過が検出される。 Further, as shown in FIG. 3B, the magnetic flux detected by the second sensor element 12b changes to the S pole side only when the origin detecting magnetized portion 9a of the second detected portion 6b passes. However, while the remaining circumferential portion 9b passes, it is held constant on the N pole side. In this case, the passage of the origin is detected when the magnetic flux changes to the S pole side and exceeds the threshold value WS2 , and further when the magnetic flux returns to the N pole side and exceeds the threshold value WN2 .

In this modification, the origin detecting magnetized portion 9a, which is the S pole of the second detected portion 6b, is provided so as to be adjacent to one N pole of the first detected portion 6a in the axial direction. Yes.

図5は、前記磁気エンコーダ6の第2の変形例を示す。この変形例では、第2の被検出部6bの原点検出用着磁部9aが、磁性材料をゴムで結合した別体で形成されるとともに、第2の被検出部6bの円周方向で1箇所に窪み部13が設けられ、別体で形成された原点検出用着磁部9aが窪み部13で芯金8に接着剤で接着されるようになっており、原点検出用着磁部9aは接着前にS極に着磁されている。原点検出用着磁部9aは接着後に着磁してもよい。   FIG. 5 shows a second modification of the magnetic encoder 6. In this modified example, the origin detecting magnetized portion 9a of the second detected portion 6b is formed as a separate body in which a magnetic material is coupled with rubber, and 1 in the circumferential direction of the second detected portion 6b. A hollow portion 13 is provided at a location, and an origin detection magnetized portion 9a formed separately is bonded to the cored bar 8 with an adhesive at the hollow portion 13, and the origin detection magnetized portion 9a.

In this modification, the remaining circumferential portion 9b of the second detected portion 6b is formed as a separate body obtained by combining a magnetic material with rubber, and the origin detecting magnetization is performed in the second detected portion 6b.
