Description

  The present invention relates to a magnetic gear that transmits torque input from an input shaft to an output shaft at a predetermined speed ratio using a magnetically coupled state, and a vehicle equipped with the magnetic gear.

  In recent years, magnetic gears using a magnetically coupled state have been attracting attention because there are no problems with lubrication loss and oil maintenance in mechanical gears. The inner rotor in which the permanent magnets are arranged on the outer circumferential surface with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction, and the outer rotor of which the permanent magnet is arranged on the inner circumferential surface with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction. It is comparable to a mechanical gear by arranging a magnetic gear coaxially on the inner peripheral side via a predetermined gap and concentrically arranging the pole pieces in the gap between the inner rotor and the outer rotor. It has been reported that a torque density can be obtained (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

  Further, the spindle of the inner rotor is supported by the housing via a plurality of bearings, the outer rotor is rotatably arranged between the spindle and the housing via the bearings, and the stator is arranged outside the inner rotor and the outer rotor. A conventional electric device in which a magnetic gear and a motor are integrated has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  In the conventional electric equipment, the inner rotor and the outer rotor are both supported by the bearings, so the following problems occur.

First, since one side in the axial direction of the inner rotor and the outer rotor is supported by the housing via two concentric bearings, the structure for supporting the inner rotor and the outer rotor by the housing becomes complicated. . On the other hand, the other side in the axial direction of the inner rotor is supported by the housing via a single bearing, and the other side in the axial direction of the outer rotor is supported by the spindle of the inner rotor via a single bearing. The axial length on the other side in the axial direction between the inner rotor and the outer rotor becomes longer, and the size cannot be reduced.
In addition, when conventional electrical equipment is applied to the purpose of shifting the output of a motor or engine, it is necessary to coaxially connect the output shaft of the motor or engine and the spindle of the inner roller, and high-precision alignment adjustment is required. Become. Further, by connecting the output shaft of the motor or engine and the spindle of the inner roller via a coupling, this high-precision alignment adjustment can be made unnecessary, but this brings about a new problem of increasing the size.

  The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and the first rotating body and the second rotating body are cantilevered by different bearings that are spaced apart in the axial direction. Thus, the structure for supporting the first rotating body and the second rotating body by the housing can be simplified and the size can be reduced, and the output shaft of the motor or engine can be used as the input shaft of the first rotating body. It is an object of the present invention to obtain a magnetic gear that can omit alignment adjustment and a vehicle equipped with the magnetic gear.

  A magnetic gear according to the present invention includes: a first housing that holds a first bearing; a second housing that holds a second bearing that is spaced apart axially from the first bearing and arranged coaxially; A first rotating body that is coaxially connected to a first shaft that is cantilevered by a first bearing and that is rotatably supported by the first housing, and an outer circumferential surface of the first rotating body that is alternately polarized in the circumferential direction The first permanent magnet of N pole pairs (N: positive integer) arranged in the opposite direction and a cylindrical portion, and the cylindrical portion is connected to a second shaft that is cantilevered by the second bearing A second rotating body that is coaxially connected to the second housing and rotatably supported by the second housing, and the cylindrical portion is disposed so as to surround the first rotating body, and an inner periphery of the cylindrical portion A second permanent magnet of M pole pairs (M: positive integer) arranged on the surface with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction; It is manufactured in a cylindrical shape, and is arranged in an annular shape with a predetermined gap in the circumferential direction with the longitudinal direction parallel to the axial direction of the first axis, and is supported on the first housing coaxially with the first axis. And L (L: positive integer) magnetic cores inserted between the first rotating body and the second rotating body, the number of pole pairs N of the first permanent magnet, the second permanent The number M of pole pairs of the magnets and the number L of the magnetic cores satisfy | M ± L | = N.

  According to this invention, the first permanent magnet is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction, and the second permanent magnet surrounds the outer peripheral surface of the first rotating body. Arranged on the inner peripheral surface of the cylindrical portion of the two-rotor body with the polarities alternately opposite to each other in the circumferential direction, the magnetic cores are arranged annularly at a predetermined interval in the circumferential direction, and the second and second rotations. Since the number N of pole pairs of the first permanent magnet, the number M of pole pairs of the second permanent magnet, and the number L of the magnetic cores satisfy | M ± L | = N. The torque input to the first shaft is transmitted to the second shaft at a speed ratio N / M.

  Further, the first rotating body is coaxially connected to the first shaft that is cantilevered by the first bearing held by the first housing, and the second rotating body is cantilevered by the second bearing held by the second housing. It is connected coaxially to the supported second shaft. Therefore, the support structure for the first rotating body and the second rotating body by the first and second housings is simplified, and the apparatus can be miniaturized. In addition, since the output shaft of the motor or engine can be used as the first shaft of the first rotating body, highly accurate alignment adjustment can be omitted.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
1 is a longitudinal sectional view for explaining the configuration of a magnetic gear according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a sectional view taken along the line II-II in FIG. 1, and FIG. 3 is a magnetic sectional view according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention. It is a perspective view which shows the structure of a gear typically.

  1 to 3, the magnetic gear 1 includes a first housing 2 in which a first bearing 3 is held, and a second bearing 5 that is axially separated from the first bearing 3 and held coaxially with the first bearing 3. Second housing 4, input shaft 6 serving as a first shaft rotatably supported by first bearing 3, and output serving as a second shaft rotatably supported by second bearing 5. A shaft 7, a columnar support 9, and a plurality of first permanent magnets 10 arranged and fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the support 9 with polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction are fixed. The inner rotor 8 as a first rotating body connected coaxially to one axial end of the input shaft 6 and the cylindrical support body 12 and the inner peripheral surface of the support body 12 are alternately reversed in polarity in the circumferential direction. A disk-shaped disc having a plurality of second permanent magnets 13 arranged and fixed in place, and the support 12 serving as a connecting portion. 4 is coaxially connected to the other axial end of the output shaft 7, has a predetermined gap 15 between the second permanent magnet 13 and the first permanent magnet 10, and the support 12 supports the support 9. An outer rotor 11 as a second rotating body disposed so as to surround and a plurality of magnetic cores 17 are fixed to the first housing 2 at the other end and arranged at a predetermined pitch in the circumferential direction. 3 and an iron core layer 16 having one end side inserted into the gap 15.

  The plurality of first permanent magnets 10 of the inner rotor 8 are magnetized and oriented so that the magnetization direction 18 is radially outward or radially inward. The plurality of first permanent magnets 10 are arranged so that the magnetization directions 18 are alternately reversed in the circumferential direction. The support 9 is made of a magnetic material such as iron. Here, eight poles, that is, four pole pairs of first permanent magnets 10 are arranged on the outer peripheral surface of the support 9 at an equiangular pitch in the circumferential direction.

  The plurality of second permanent magnets 13 of the outer rotor 11 are magnetized and oriented so that the magnetization direction 18 is radially outward or radially inward. The plurality of second permanent magnets 13 are arranged so that the magnetization directions 18 are alternately reversed in the circumferential direction. The support 12 is made of a magnetic material such as iron. Here, 44 poles, that is, 22 pole pairs of second permanent magnets 13 are arranged on the inner peripheral surface of the support 12 at an equiangular pitch in the circumferential direction. The disk 14 is preferably made of a nonmagnetic material such as stainless steel from the magnetic viewpoint.

  The iron core layer 16 is formed in an annular shape by arranging magnetic cores 17 made of iron or the like in a columnar shape with the longitudinal direction parallel to the axial direction of the input shaft 6 and at an equiangular pitch in the circumferential direction. The magnetic cores 17 adjacent in the circumferential direction are magnetically separated by a non-magnetic space 19 made of an air layer. Here, 26 magnetic cores 17 are arranged at equiangular pitches in the circumferential direction. The first housing 2 is made of a non-magnetic material such as stainless steel, and prevents a magnetic short circuit between the magnetic cores 17 via the first housing 2.

Next, the deceleration operation in the magnetic gear 1 configured as described above will be described.
First, as shown in FIG. 2, the inner rotor 8 generates an eight-pole magnetic field.

When power from an external power source such as an engine is input via the input shaft 6, the inner rotor 8 is rotated. The magnetomotive force H1 of the magnet generated by the first permanent magnet 10 is represented by the formula (1).
H1 = A · sin (4θ + 4ω ₁ t) (1)
A is a coefficient determined by the strength of the magnetic field, θ is the angle of the space, and ω ₁ is the rotational angular velocity of the inner rotor 8.
The permeance P of the iron core layer 16 is represented by the formula (2).
P = B · sin (26θ) (2)
B is a coefficient determined by the gap between the iron core layer 16 and the first permanent magnet 10, and θ is the angle of the space.

And the magnetic field B1 which generate | occur | produces with respect to the 2nd permanent magnet 13 which the 1st permanent magnet 10 opposes via the iron core layer 16 is represented by the product of magnetomotive force H1 and permeance P.
B1 = H1 · P = − (AB / 2) {cos (30θ + 4ω ₁ t) − (cos (22θ−4ω ₁ t)} (3)
As shown in the equation (3), the inner rotor 8 has a magnetic field of a 30-pole pair component in the normal phase (rotational direction of the inner rotor 8) and a 22-pole pair component in the reverse phase (reverse rotation direction of the inner rotor 8). Is generated.

Since the outer rotor 11 is equipped with the 22-pole pair of second permanent magnets 13, the outer rotor 11 is coupled with the magnetic field B <b> 1 and rotates in the reverse direction. The speed of the outer rotor 11 at that time is reduced to 4/22 (= 1 / 5.5) so as to synchronize with the rotational speed 4ω ₁ t of the inner rotor 8. That is, deceleration is performed by the ratio between the number of poles of the first permanent magnet 10 of the inner rotor 8 and the number of poles of the second permanent magnet 13 of the outer rotor 11.

On the other hand, the magnetomotive force H2 generated by the second permanent magnet 13 of the outer rotor 11 is expressed by Expression (4).
H2 = C · sin (22θ-22ω ₂ t) (4)
C is a coefficient determined by the strength of the magnetic field, θ is the angle of the space, and ω ₂ is the rotational angular velocity of the outer rotor 11.
Here, from the synchronization condition between the inner rotor 8 and the outer rotor 11, ω2 = (4/22) ω1, Equation (4) becomes Equation (5).
H2 = C · sin (22θ-4ω ₁ t) (5)

And the magnetic field B2 which generate | occur | produces with respect to the 1st permanent magnet 10 which the 2nd permanent magnet 13 opposes via the iron core layer 16 is represented by the product of magnetomotive force H2 and permeance P.
B2 = H2 · P = − (BC / 2) {cos (48θ−4ω ₁ t) − (cos (−40θ + 4ω ₁ t)} (6)
As shown in Expression (6), the outer rotor 11 generates a magnetic field having a quadrupole component, and the rotational angular velocity is in the same direction as that of the inner rotor 8, so that a synchronization condition is established and power is transmitted.

  Thus, in the magnetic gear 1, the power of the external power source such as the engine is input to the input shaft 6, the speed is reduced by 1 / 5.5 times, the torque is increased by 5.5 times, and the output shaft 7 is output.

  According to the first embodiment, the input shaft 6 to which the inner rotor 8 is connected is cantilevered by the first housing 2 via the first bearing 3, and the output shaft 7 to which the outer rotor 11 is connected is the second. The second housing 4 is cantilevered via a bearing 5. Therefore, a double bearing structure in which two bearings are concentrically arranged as in Patent Document 1 is not required, and the support structure between the inner rotor 8 and the outer rotor 11 is simplified. Further, as in Patent Document 1, it is not necessary to provide two bearings in the axial direction on one side in the axial direction of the inner rotor 8 and the outer rotor 11, and the magnetic gear 1 can be reduced in the axial direction.

In addition, the input shaft 6 and the output shaft 7 are respectively connected to the first housing 2 and the second housing 4 through the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5, that is, different cantilever bearings separated in the axial direction. Since it is supported, the alignment error between the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5 is absorbed by the gap 15 between the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13.
Therefore, a coupling for absorbing the coaxiality error between the external power source and the input shaft 6, a coupling for absorbing the coaxiality error between the output shaft 7 and the load connected to the output shaft 7, and Alignment adjustment between the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5 can be made unnecessary. Moreover, the excessive load to the 1st bearing 3 and the 2nd bearing 5 resulting from a coaxiality error can be eliminated, and a highly efficient magnetic gear can be obtained.

In the first embodiment, the space 19 between the magnetic cores 17 arranged in the circumferential direction is composed of an air layer. However, the space 19 is not limited to the air layer and may be a non-magnetic material. For example, fiber reinforced plastic (FRP: Fiber Reinforced Plastics) may be used.
In the first embodiment, the first housing is made of a nonmagnetic material such as stainless steel. However, the iron core layer is magnetically insulated via the nonmagnetic material and attached to the first housing. If so, the first housing may be made of a magnetic material.

  In the first embodiment, the first permanent magnet has 4 pole pairs (8 poles), the second permanent magnet has 22 pole pairs (44 poles), and 26 magnetic cores. The number of poles of the permanent magnet and the number of magnetic cores are not limited to this, and may be set as appropriate according to the gear ratio of the magnetic gear. That is, the number of pole pairs of the first permanent magnet is N (where N is a positive integer), the number of pole pairs of the second permanent magnet is M (where M is a positive integer), and the number of magnetic cores is L (note that If L, N, M, and L are set so as to satisfy | M ± L | = N, the torque input to the input shaft can be applied to the output shaft at a speed ratio of N / M. Can communicate.

  4 to 6, the outer rotor 20 as the second rotating body is a cylindrical support 21 made of a magnetic material such as iron, and the support 21 is divided into two in the axial direction. A disk-shaped disk 22 as a connecting portion fixed to the inner peripheral surface, and arranged and fixed at an equiangular pitch with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction on the other axial side on the inner peripheral surface of the support 21. 22 pole pairs of second permanent magnets 13 and 4 pole pairs arranged and fixed at equiangular pitches with the polarities alternately reversed in the circumferential direction on one side in the axial direction on the inner peripheral surface of the support 21. A third permanent magnet 23 is provided. In the outer rotor 20, the support 21 is coaxially connected to the other axial end of the output shaft 7 via the disk 22, and a predetermined gap 15 is provided between the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13. And the other side in the axial direction of the support 21 is disposed so as to surround the support 9. The disk 22 is preferably made of a nonmagnetic material such as stainless steel from the magnetic viewpoint.

The stator 25 is a laminated body of magnetic steel plates, each of an annular core back portion 26a and 12 cores extending radially outward from the outer peripheral surface of the core back portion 26a and arranged at equiangular pitches in the circumferential direction. A stator core 26 consisting of 12 slots 26c formed between the teeth 26b and the teeth 26b adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, and 12 coils wound around the teeth 26b in a concentrated manner. And a stator coil 27 configured by phase connection. In the stator 25, the core back portion 26 a of the stator core 26 is fastened and fixed to the second housing 2 by the mounting screw 28, and a predetermined gap 29 is provided between the third permanent magnet 23 and the stator core 26. And is disposed coaxially with the second bearing 5 so as to be surrounded by a portion of the support body 21 on one side in the axial direction. The third permanent magnet 23 is magnetized and oriented so that the magnetization direction 18 is radially outward or radially inward. The stator coil 27 functions as a torque generating coil that generates torque in the outer rotor 20.
Other configurations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

The magnetic gear 1 </ b> A configured as described above is a motor-integrated magnetic gear in which the other side of the disk 22 constitutes a magnetic gear part 30 and one side of the disk 22 constitutes a motor part 31.
The magnetic gear unit 30 configured on the other side of the disk 22 is basically configured in the same manner as the magnetic gear 1 in the first embodiment, and the power of an external power source such as an engine is input to the input shaft 6. Then, the speed is reduced to 1 / 5.5 times, the torque is increased to 5.5 times, and output from the output shaft 7.

  The motor unit 31 configured on one side of the disk 22 applies torque to the outer rotor 20 by magnetic interaction with the third permanent magnet 23 by passing a three-phase current through the stator coil 27. The generated third permanent magnet 23 operates as an outer rotor type motor having eight poles and twelve slots 26c of the stator core 26, that is, two poles and three slots. As a result, the torque input to the input shaft 6 is amplified by the magnetic gear unit 30, and further the torque of the motor unit 31 is superimposed and output from the output shaft 7.

  Here, FIG. 7 shows a case where the magnetic gear 1A is applied to a so-called hybrid car having both an engine and a motor. In FIG. 7, the magnetic gear unit 30 is configured such that the crankshaft that is the output shaft of the engine 32 is also used as the input shaft 6, and amplifies the engine torque. On the other hand, the motor unit 31 is driven by the electric power of the battery 33 being supplied to the stator coil 27 via the inverter 34. Therefore, the engine torque is assisted by the motor unit 31 while being amplified by the magnetic gear unit 30, and a higher torque can be output compared to the case of the engine 32 alone. Torque output from the output shaft 7 is transmitted to the wheel shaft of the vehicle.

  Also in the second embodiment, the input shaft 6 to which the inner rotor 8 is connected is cantilevered by the first housing 2 via the first bearing 3, and the output shaft 7 to which the outer rotor 20 is connected is the second bearing. 5 is cantilevered by the second housing 4 via the fifth housing 4, the support structure between the inner rotor 8 and the outer rotor 20 is simplified as in the first embodiment, and the axial direction of the magnetic gear 1A is simplified. Miniaturization is achieved.

  Further, the input shaft 6 and the output shaft 7 are respectively connected to the first housing 2 and the second housing 4 through the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5, that is, different cantilever bearings separated in the axial direction. It is supported. Therefore, the alignment error between the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5 is absorbed by the gap 15 between the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13, and the alignment between the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5. Adjustment can be made unnecessary. Further, the output shaft of the external power source can be shared with the input shaft 6, and the coupling for absorbing the coaxiality error between the output shaft of the external power source and the input shaft 6 can be eliminated. Further, an attachment error between the output shaft 7 and a bearing of a driving device such as a transmission or a tire is absorbed by the gap 29 between the third permanent magnet 23 and the stator core 26.

  Thus, the coupling for absorbing the coaxiality error between the external power source connected to the input shaft 6 and the load connected to the output shaft 7 can be eliminated, and the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 3 The alignment adjustment with the bearing 5 can be made unnecessary. Moreover, an excessive load on the first bearing 3 and the second bearing 5 due to the coaxiality error can be eliminated, and a highly efficient motor-integrated magnetic gear can be obtained.

  In the second embodiment, the stator core has 12 slots. However, the number of slots in the stator core is not limited to this, and depends on the pole of the third permanent magnet. Set as appropriate.

The second bearing 5 is coaxial with the third permanent magnet 23 and the stator core 26 so as to have a predetermined gap 29 and be surrounded by a portion on one side of the support 36 in the axial direction. It is arranged. The third permanent magnet 23 is magnetized and oriented so that the magnetization direction 18 faces radially outward or radially inward.

  In addition, the motor unit 31 </ b> A configured on one side in the axial direction of the support body 36 applies a three-phase current to the stator coil 27, thereby causing magnetic interaction with the third permanent magnet 23 to the outer rotor 35. It operates as an outer rotor type motor with two poles and three slots that generates torque. Thereby, the torque input to the input shaft 6 is amplified by the magnetic gear portion 30A, and further the torque of the motor portion 31A is superimposed and output from the output shaft 7.

Therefore, when the magnetic gear 1B is applied to a so-called hybrid car having both an engine and a motor, the engine torque is amplified by the magnetic gear portion 30A and assisted by the motor portion 31A as in the second embodiment. Thus, a higher torque can be output as compared with the case of the engine alone.
Therefore, also in the third embodiment, the same effect as in the second embodiment can be obtained.

Embodiment 8 FIG.
FIG. 18 is a perspective view for explaining the configuration of a magnetic gear according to Embodiment 8 of the present invention.

In FIG. 18, the iron core layer 16 is formed in an annular shape by arranging 26 magnetic cores 17 at an equiangular pitch in the circumferential direction. The other ends of the magnetic cores 17 arranged in an annular shape are connected and integrated by a connecting body 61 such as FRP. In the first housing 2, 26 insertion holes 62 are formed concentrically with the bearing 3 at an equiangular pitch. The iron core layer 16 is mounted so as to be movable in the axial direction by inserting one end side of each magnetic core 17 through the insertion hole 62.
The clutch mechanism 55A includes an operating lever 57 disposed so as to be rotatable around a fulcrum 56, a spring 58 for biasing one end of the operating lever 57 so as to position the operating lever 57 at the magnetic coupling position, and a magnetic coupling position. And a flange 60 extending radially outward from the other end of the iron core layer 16 so as to abut on the other end side of the operating lever 57 located at the position.
Other configurations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

Next, the operation of the clutch mechanism 55A in the magnetic gear 1G configured as described above will be described.
First, the urging force of the spring 58 acts on one end of the operating lever 57, and the operating lever 57 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 18 around the fulcrum 56 and stops by contacting a stopper (not shown). At this time, the iron core layer 16 moves to one end side in the axial direction by the magnetic attractive force between the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13 and the magnetic core 17, and the flange 60 moves to the other end side of the operating lever 57. Stops in contact. As a result, the magnetic core 17 is inserted into the gap 15 between the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13, and the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13 face each other with the iron core layer 16 therebetween. A magnetic coupling state is established. Therefore, power from an external power source such as an engine is input to the input shaft 6, the speed is reduced by 1 / 5.5 times, the torque is increased by 5.5 times, and output from the output shaft 7.

  Next, when the magnetic coupling release force acts on one end of the operating lever 57, the operating lever 57 is moved around the fulcrum 56 against the urging force of the spring 58 and the magnetic attractive force of the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13. Rotate clockwise in 18 minutes. Then, the turning force of the operating lever 57 acts on the flange 60, the iron core layer 16 moves to the other side in the axial direction, abuts against a stopper (not shown), and stops. Thereby, the iron core layer 16 is offset in the axial direction with respect to the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 13. Therefore, the magnetic coupling state established by the fundamental wave components of the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 44 being modulated by the iron core layer 16 is lost, and the first permanent magnet 10 and the second permanent magnet 10 are lost. The magnetic gap between the magnet 44 and the magnet 44 is also greatly expanded, and the power input to the input shaft 6 is not transmitted to the output shaft 7.

  As described above, also in the eighth embodiment, by providing the simple clutch mechanism 55A, it is possible to obtain the magnetic gear 1G capable of easily transmitting / not transmitting power. Therefore, if the power of the engine of the hybrid car is input to the input shaft of the magnetic gear 1G, it is necessary to run the motor alone while the engine is stopped or to maintain the idling state when the vehicle is stopped. Thus, the clutch disposed between the engine and the gear can be eliminated, and the entire system can be configured compactly.

In the eighth embodiment, the magnetic gear according to the first embodiment is equipped with a clutch mechanism. However, the magnetic gear according to the second and fifth embodiments may be equipped with a clutch mechanism.
In each of the above embodiments, the first shaft on the high speed side is the input shaft, the second shaft on the low speed side is the output shaft, and the magnetic gear operates as a speed reducer that transmits power from the first shaft to the second shaft. The first gear on the high speed side is used as the output shaft, the second shaft on the low speed side is used as the input shaft, and the magnetic gear is operated as a speed increaser that transmits power from the second shaft to the first shaft. However, it goes without saying that the same effect can be obtained.
