JP4630858B2 - Laminated iron core and method for manufacturing the same - Google Patents

Description

The present invention relates to a laminated core that can be wound around a magnetic pole without damaging the insulating coating and the winding itself, and a method for manufacturing the same.

Nowadays, the winding of the laminated iron core to the magnetic pole is facilitated by being performed on the divided laminated iron core in which the yoke is divided for each magnetic pole, and can be wound at high density. However, although the winding is workable, a gap is formed between the magnetic pole upper end and the magnetic pole lower end when winding the magnetic pole, and the density of the winding cannot be further improved.
As a technique for coping with this problem, for example, in Patent Document 1, as shown in FIGS. The width of 91 and the lower end 92 is gradually reduced. According to this, the winding around the magnetic pole shaft portion 90 can be wound without causing a gap between the upper end portion 91 and the lower end portion 92 of the magnetic pole shaft portion 90.

JP 2005-348553 A

The winding to the magnetic pole shaft portion 90 is performed at high speed while applying tension to the winding, but the magnetic pole shaft portion 90 is thick and the upper end portion 91 and the lower end portion of the magnetic pole shaft portion 90 are thick. Since the side surface of the portion excluding the portion 92 is planar (the width of the magnetic pole shaft portion 90 is the same), the winding may not be in close contact with the side surface. In particular, as the thickness of the laminated iron core (divided laminated iron core) increases, this tendency tends to occur, and it is difficult to increase the space factor of the windings to the limit, and this may contribute to noise generation.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and provides a laminated iron core capable of winding a winding around a magnetic pole shaft portion at as high a density as possible, having excellent electromagnetic characteristics and preventing noise generation, and a method for manufacturing the same.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings for understanding of the present invention.
First, a stator laminated core that is an example of a laminated core according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 (A), 1 (B), and 2 (A) to 2 (C).
A stator laminated iron core (not shown) has a plurality of, for example, 8 to 16 magnetic poles 11 inside an annular yoke iron core. The divided laminated iron core 10 formed by dividing the yoke (yoke iron core) of the stator laminated iron core for each magnetic pole 11 has a yoke portion 12 and a magnetic pole 11 which are divided yoke iron cores, respectively. 12 includes a magnetic pole shaft portion 13 whose base portion is connected to 12 and a tooth portion 14 provided at the tip of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13.

The divided laminated core 10 includes divided core pieces 15 and 16 in which an annular yoke piece is divided for each magnetic pole piece, a magnetic pole shaft having a base piece connected to a yoke piece portion 17 of each of the divided core pieces 15 and 16. It is caulked and laminated via a caulking part 19 having a well-known shape formed on the piece part 18. Note that the caulking portion of the lowermost divided core piece 16 is a through hole (caulking hole 54, see FIG. 3).
The width of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 of the divided laminated core 10, that is, the laminated portion on the lower end side of the laminated layer, from below the laminated divided core pieces 15 and 16 (first laminated layer) to n1th (for example, about 3 to 10). Is gradually shortened symmetrically with respect to the center line L of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 in the downward direction. Further, the magnetic pole shaft 13 from the top of the divided core pieces 15 and 16 to the (n3-n2) -th sheet, that is, the stacked portion on the upper end side of the stacked layer, is gradually shortened in the left-right symmetrical manner toward the upper side. Note that n3 is the final number of laminated core pieces.
As described above, the widths of the upper end side and the lower end side of the magnetic pole shaft 13 are gradually reduced toward the upper end and the lower end of the stack, respectively, and the corners 20 to 23 at the four corners of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 are rounded (for example, (Arc shape or elliptical arc shape), the winding bends along the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 more smoothly.

Further, the width of the central portion excluding the remaining n2-n1 magnetic pole shaft portions 13 of the divided laminated core 10, that is, the laminated portions on the laminated upper end side and the laminated lower end side, is the maximum width W1 of the laminated thickness direction intermediate portion 24. Are gradually widened from the upper end side (n2-1 sheet) and the lower end side (n1 + 1 sheet). That is, the width of the central portion of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 is gradually shortened in the vertical direction with respect to the center line of the intermediate portion 24 in the stacking thickness direction.
Here, the width W1 of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 positioned at the intermediate portion 24 in the stacking thickness direction is set such that the central portion of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 (n2) excluding the stacking portion on the stacking upper end side and stacking lower end side with rounded corners 20-23. 0.5 to 8% (preferably lower limit is 1% and upper limit is 5%) with respect to the average width W of the magnetic core pieces 18 of the divided core pieces 15 and 16 from the -1st sheet to the (n1 + 1) th sheet ).

By configuring as described above, the contour of the cross section of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 becomes an arc shape or an elliptical arc shape, and has a shape in which the center of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 in the thickness direction is expanded. As a result, winding of the winding around the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 can be adapted to all of the peripheral surface (upper surface, side surface, and lower surface) of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 and there is no gap.
Note that the bulging shape of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 is determined according to, for example, the thickness (diameter) of the winding to be used, the material characteristics (elastic modulus), or the laminated thickness of the divided core pieces.

Further, in the split laminated core 10, the radially inner sides 25 and 26 of the yoke portion 12 to which the base portion of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 is coupled are linear, and the radially inner side 25 and the radially inner side 26 are straight. It is on the line (on the same straight line). For this reason, the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 is placed on the yoke portion 12 so that the center line L formed from the center in the width direction of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 is perpendicular (right angle) to the radially inner sides 25 and 26 of the yoke portion 12. Are connected.
The radial outer sides 27 and 28 of the tooth portion 14 to which the tip portion of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13 (that is, the inner side in the radial direction) is connected have an obtuse angle (for example, an angle θ with respect to the center line L of the magnetic pole shaft portion 13). It is formed to be in the range of 100 degrees to 130 degrees.

For this reason, the same mold (an example of a slot punching device) (not shown) is used in a shape in which the width of the magnetic pole shaft piece 18 of the divided core piece 15 is different as shown in FIGS. In the case of punching out, the mold is moved to the center line L along the radially inner sides 25 and 26 of the yoke piece portion 17 (the same name and number are used because they are at the same position as the divided laminated core 10). Move forward and backward. As a result, the radial width of the tooth portion 14 of the divided laminated core 10 gradually increases from the upper end side and the lower end side of the stack, with the intermediate portion 24 in the stacking thickness direction being the maximum width.
Accordingly, also in the divided core pieces 15 and 16 constituting the divided laminated core 10, the magnetic pole shaft piece 18 is formed perpendicular to the radially inner sides 25 and 26 of the yoke piece 17. In addition, the radially outer sides 27 and 28 of the tooth piece 29 are formed at an angle θ with respect to the magnetic pole piece 18.

Engagement portions 30 each having a dovetail-shaped notch are formed on the rear surface portions of the divided core pieces 15 and 16 on the radially outer side. The engaging portion 30 is used when the divided laminated core 10 is fixed to a jig (not shown). Thereby, this part can be latched to a jig and assembled easily and accurately.
The split core piece 15 has a protruding portion 31 on one side of the yoke piece portion 17 and a notch portion 32 on the other side, and the split core piece 16 has a notch portion 33 on one side of the yoke piece portion 17. A protrusion 34 is provided on the other side. In this embodiment, connecting portions 35 and 36 each including a concave portion and a convex portion are formed on both sides of the yoke portion 12 of the divided laminated core 10 in which three divided iron core pieces 15 and 16 are alternately and continuously laminated. ing. And the connection parts 35 and 36 of the adjacent division | segmentation laminated | stacked iron core 10 are meshed | engaged, and it is set as the cyclic | annular stator lamination | stacking iron core laminated | stacked the desired number (for example, about 50 or more and 300 or less). In this embodiment, three divided core pieces are continuously laminated. However, for example, the present invention is applied to a case where two or four or more pieces are continuously laminated.

Then, the manufacturing method of the laminated iron core which concerns on one embodiment of this invention is demonstrated, referring FIG.

Yes.

Therefore, when forming the n1st divided core pieces 15 and 16 from the lowermost layer constituting the divided laminated core 10, the first and second molds are connected to the press processing reference line (the center of the press processing line, that is, the center of the press processing line). The first and second punched holes 44 and 46 are punched while being gradually retracted with respect to the center line of the strip 40 and also the center line of the magnetic pole piece 18. When forming the divided core pieces 15 and 16 from the (n1 + 1) th to the laminated thickness direction intermediate portion 24 constituting the divided laminated core 10, the first and second molds are moved with respect to the press working reference line. The first and second punching holes 44 and 46 are punched while gradually retracting and increasing the width of the magnetic pole piece 18.

In forming the divided core pieces 15 and 16 from the time when the intermediate thickness 24 in the laminated thickness direction constituting the divided laminated core 10 is exceeded to the (n2-1) th divided core pieces 15, 16, the first and second molds are The first and second punched holes 44 and 46 are punched while being gradually advanced with respect to the press working reference line and reducing the width of the magnetic pole piece 18. Then, in the manufacture of the split core pieces 15 and 16 from the n2th to the final stack number n3 constituting the split laminated core 10, the first and second molds are gradually advanced with respect to the press working reference line. Thus, the width of the magnetic pole piece piece 23 is gradually reduced.

Do it. In step 7, a ninth punching hole 53 that forms an engaging portion 30 (groove) formed at the back portion (radially outer center) of each of the divided core pieces 15 and 16 is formed by punching with a ninth die. In step 8, the three caulking holes 54 to be caulked portions of the lowermost divided core pieces 16 are formed by the tenth to thirteenth molds.

In step 9, the four caulking projections 55 that form the caulking portions of the divided core pieces 15 and 16 excluding the lowermost layer are formed by the fourteenth to sixteenth molds. In step 10, punching of the radially inner contour line 56 and the radially outer contour line 57 of the split core pieces 15, 16 is performed by punching with a seventeenth mold.
In addition, although the case where the division | segmentation iron core piece 16 is formed is demonstrated in the process 6 and the process 7, the division | segmentation iron core piece 15 is processed by the same process. Moreover, although the process 9 demonstrated the case where the split core piece 15 was formed, the split core piece 16 is processed by the same process. And the 17th metal mold | die used for the process 10 becomes a shape which includes both the division | segmentation iron core pieces 15 and 16. FIG.

The divided core pieces 15 and 16 that have been removed from the outer die of the mold in step 10 are sequentially caulked and stacked to form the divided laminated core 10 shown in FIGS. 1 (A) and 1 (B). In the lamination of the divided core pieces 15 and 16, it is preferable that a plurality of (for example, 2 to 6) divided core pieces 15 and 16 are alternately stacked as shown in FIG. Thereby, even when the split core pieces 15 and 16 are extremely thin, the meshing portions of the connecting portions 35 and 36 have a constant thickness, and the assembly efficiency of the split laminated core 10 is improved.
