Description

Description: TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a sliding metal plate brush piece used for a micromotor, a resistor and the like, and a method for manufacturing the same.

[Conventional technology]

Micromotors and resistors tend to be miniaturized, and to cope with this, the terminal poles of the sliding brush pieces are V-shaped or U-shaped.
The brush portion is reduced in size by bending into a letter shape, and vibration absorption and contact pressure during sliding are stabilized.

The prior art will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 5 is a perspective view of a long material, FIG. 6 is a perspective view of a flat brush piece, FIG. 7 is a perspective view of a sliding brush piece, and FIG. 8 is a side view showing a use state. Reference numeral 1 denotes a long material, in which a sliding member 3 of a noble metal is edge-lay or through-lay clad in a longitudinal direction of a long spring plate 2.

As shown in FIG. 6, a flat brush piece 5 having a plurality of terminal poles 4 is formed from the long material 1 by press working or the like, and further, as shown in FIG. From -A, the sliding member 3 is bent in a V-shape or a U-shape in a direction in which it appears on the surface to form a sliding brush piece 6.

For example, in a micromotor, the sliding brush piece 6 configured as described above is opposed to the commutator 8 so that the sliding member 3 comes into contact with the brush holder 7 holding the spring plate 2 as shown in FIG. Be placed. At this time, it is desired from the viewpoint of sliding characteristics that all of the plurality of terminal poles 4 are in contact with a constant contact pressure.

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

However, since the long material is composed of a hard spring plate and a soft sliding member, there is a difference in elongation between them, and rolling deformation during manufacturing is accumulated. During the bending process, the individual terminal poles, which are called variations, appear as deformations, and a uniform contact pressure cannot be obtained when the product is manufactured.

In addition, there is also a problem that the terminal electrodes are displaced by the press working, and must be corrected.

[Means for solving the problem]

The present invention is directed to a sliding brush piece having a plurality of terminal poles at a tip end of a spring plate, wherein the plate portion is bent at a through hole formed in a spring plate portion behind the terminal pole so that the terminal pole at the tip end is oblique. It is characterized in that it is reversed in the state of, further, as a manufacturing method, punching a sliding brush piece having a plurality of terminal poles from a long material clad a sliding member of noble metal on one side of a spring plate, A through hole is provided in the spring plate portion behind the terminal electrode, and the terminal member is turned obliquely at an angle of 90 ° or more in the middle of the through hole so that the sliding member appears on the surface. It is characterized by the following.

[Action]

According to the above configuration, a plurality of terminal electrodes are punched from a long material in which a sliding member of a noble metal is clad on one side of a spring plate,
A through hole is provided in the spring plate portion behind the plurality of terminal poles, and the sliding member is bent in a V-shape or U-shape in a direction in which the sliding member appears on the surface, and is obliquely inclined at the bending line. The bending point is not related to the sliding member, and the bending is performed by the spring plate part, so that no distortion remains at each terminal pole. It does not appear, and a plurality of terminal poles are uniformly arranged.

〔Example〕

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 is a plan view of a long material, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a flat brush piece, FIG. 3 is a perspective view of a sliding brush piece, and FIGS. 4 (1), (2) and (3) are transparent. FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an example of a hole. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a long material, and a sliding member 3 made of a noble metal is joined in a longitudinal direction of a long spring plate 2 by an edge lay or a through lay clad or the like. In this embodiment, the spring plate 2 is made of nickel silver for a spring, and the sliding member 3 is made of 50 wt.
% Ag-Pd alloy, and the thickness t = 70 μm. Reference numeral 9 denotes a through hole, which is provided at a position where it is bent into a shape to be used as a sliding brush piece. Reference numeral 10 denotes a pitch dimension feed hole.

In the above configuration, first, pitch dimension feed holes 10 are sequentially provided, and through holes 9 are provided at positions where the holes are bent into a shape to be used as a sliding brush piece while matching the pitch dimension.

Thereafter, a slit 11 for obtaining the terminal pole size is punched, and further, a slit 12 for obtaining the entire width dimension of the sliding brush piece and the terminal size is punched.

Next, in order to form a plurality of terminal poles 13, the front end face having the sliding member 3 is cut to make the terminal poles 13 free ends.

Next, the long member 1 is bent through the through hole 9 in the direction in which the sliding member 3 appears on the surface at 90 °, and further bent at a standard dimension angle, for example, 60 °. At the time of this bending, the terminal line 13 is bent obliquely at an angle θ so that the terminal pole 13 is slanted,
Accordingly, the cutting angle of the slit 11 is also changed to the angle θ.
Thus, each terminal pole 13 has uniform elasticity.

Then, as a final step of press working, the rear end face of the spring plate 2 is cut to obtain a sliding brush piece 14.

The sliding brush piece 14 formed in this way is opposed to the commutator 8 so that the terminal pole 13 is obliquely in contact with the commutator 8 as shown in FIG. .

In the above-mentioned sliding brush piece 14, the terminal pole 13 is shortened by shortening the slit cut dimension as compared with the conventional sliding brush piece. If it does not matter, the length of the terminal pole may be increased by increasing the overall length.

The shape of the through hole 9 is not limited to a circle, but may be an ellipse, a polygon, or a plurality of holes as shown in FIG.

〔The invention's effect〕

According to the present invention described in detail above, a through hole is provided in the spring plate portion, and the through hole portion is bent in a V-shape or a U-shape, so that bending stress is not applied to the terminal pole. That is, no large dimensional change is observed in the terminal electrode. As a result, there is an effect that the variation in the angle dimension becomes very small.

Also, by bending the terminal pole obliquely, the terminal pole can be contacted obliquely with the commutator, whereby the terminal pole comes into contact with the entire peripheral surface of the commutator, and This has the effect of evenly abrading, and the mounting density can be increased because the brush holder is held at an angle.

In addition, when the dimensions of the terminal pole are shortened, the weight due to the terminal pole is increased.However, by providing a through hole in the spring leaf to reduce the material cross-sectional area of the spring leaf, a brush piece contact similar to the conventional one is obtained. Pressure can be obtained, and even if bending is performed, there is almost no variation in dimensions due to plastic deformation, and the effect of significantly improving contact reliability is obtained.
