Description

  The present invention relates to a rotary electric motor.

  Conventionally, a permanent magnet synchronous motor in which a permanent magnet is disposed on a rotor has been used as a drive source in various fields such as an electric vehicle and a hybrid vehicle. In such a permanent magnet synchronous motor, a large torque is obtained by performing a strong magnetic field control, while a magnetic flux generated between the stator and the rotor is reduced and a maximum rotational speed is improved by performing a weak magnetic field control. Has been proposed (for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).

  In the rotary motors of Patent Documents 1 and 2 (hereinafter referred to as “motor”), an annular magnetic path is formed by the shaft, the rotor, the stator, and the field pole by energizing the field coil formed on the field pole. . For this reason, in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the amount of magnetic flux passing through the rotor (rotor teeth) can be effectively changed along with the change in the amount of current flowing through the field coil. Therefore, in the motors of Patent Documents 1 and 2, it is possible to control the magnetic field by increasing the magnetic field by controlling the energization of the field coil, thereby obtaining a large torque and improving the maximum rotational speed.

  However, in the motors of Patent Documents 1 and 2, the field pole core is formed in a substantially disc shape, and a field coil is formed by winding a conductor wire around the field pole core so as to circulate around the axis of the shaft. ing. For this reason, in the motors of Patent Documents 1 and 2, it is difficult to introduce a cooling medium (for example, air) for cooling the armature coil and the rotor disposed inside the motor from the field pole side. For the same reason, in the motors of Patent Documents 1 and 2, the conducting wire for energizing the armature coil or the like disposed inside the motor cannot be drawn out from the field pole side, and there is a restriction on the handling of the conducting wire. It was happening.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the problems existing in the above-described prior art, and an object of the present invention is to provide a motor capable of easily cooling the inside and handling the lead wires.

In order to solve the above problems, the invention according to claim 1 is a shaft including a first magnetic body, a rotor made of a soft magnetic body, having a convex pole portion, and fixed to the shaft, and the shaft A plurality of third magnetic bodies each having a second magnetic body extending along the axial direction of the first magnetic body, a magnetic coupling between the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body, and a field coil wound around the stator. A plurality of third magnetic bodies formed to extend in a direction crossing a direction along the axis of the shaft, and a space is formed between the third magnetic bodies. The outer end of each third magnetic body is open, and when the field coil is energized, the first magnetic body, the convex pole portion, the second magnetic body, and the third magnetic body are annular. A magnetic path is formed, and the convexity is generated by the field magnetic flux flowing through the magnetic path. Part is summarized in that of which the polarity of the unipolar.

  According to this, when the field coil of the third magnetic body is energized, the magnetic path is generated by the first magnetic body of the shaft, the convex pole portion of the rotor, the second magnetic body of the stator, and the third magnetic body of the field pole. (Field magnetic flux flow) can be formed. And each 3rd magnetic body is arrange | positioned so that a space may be formed between each 3rd magnetic body. For this reason, the cooling medium can be introduced into the rotary motor through the space formed between the third magnetic bodies forming the field poles, and the inside of the motor can be easily cooled. In addition, it is possible to draw out a conducting wire for energizing a coil disposed in the rotary electric motor from the field pole side through the space, so that the conducting wire can be easily handled.

The plurality of third magnetic bodies are formed to extend radially outward from the shaft, and the outer ends of the third magnetic bodies are open. For this reason, the space between each 3rd magnetic body is formed large, and while being able to cool the inside of a motor more easily, handling of a conducting wire can be performed easily.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the rotary electric motor according to the first aspect, a plurality of armature coils are formed on a surface of the stator facing the rotor, and each third magnetic body includes The proximity portion is formed so as to be close to the rotor side in the axial direction of the shaft at a position corresponding to the rotor, and the field coil is wound around the proximity portion.

  According to this, in each 3rd magnetic body, the proximity part is formed so that it may adjoin to the rotor side in the position corresponding to a rotor, and the field coil is wound by the said proximity part. For this reason, a field coil can be arrange | positioned using the space corresponding to a rotor, ie, the space where the armature coil of a stator does not exist. For this reason, it can suppress that a field coil protrudes on the opposite side of a rotor among the axial directions of a shaft, and can reduce a rotary electric motor in size.

According to a third aspect of the present invention, in the rotary electric motor according to the second aspect , each of the third magnetic bodies extends so as to magnetically connect the first magnetic body and the second magnetic body. The gist is that a plurality of steel plates are laminated. According to this, a proximity | contact part can be formed by laminating | stacking a steel plate. Therefore, the third magnetic body can be easily formed.

The invention according to claim 4, in the rotating electric machine according to any one of claims 1 to 3, wherein the third magnetic body, through the outer peripheral surface and the facing gap surfaces of the shaft the The gist is that the first magnetic body of the shaft is magnetically coupled.

  According to this, a magnetic path is easily formed so that the field magnetic flux that has passed through the second magnetic body passes through the third magnetic body and enters the shaft again. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a decrease in the amount of field magnetic flux in the convex pole portion and obtain a larger torque.

According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the rotary electric motor according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, the field poles are disposed so as to form a pair on both ends of the shaft. The gist is that a current is passed through each field coil such that the magnetic paths from the field magnetic poles are formed in opposite directions.

  According to this, magnetic paths (flow of field magnetic flux) are formed in opposite directions from both ends of the shaft. For this reason, field magnetic fluxes generated at the field magnetic poles on both ends of the shaft repel each other at the shaft, and are guided toward the convex pole portion of the rotor. Therefore, the amount of field magnetic flux in the convex pole portion of the rotor can be improved, and a larger torque can be obtained.

(First embodiment)
A first embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a motor 11 as a rotary electric motor includes a substantially cylindrical shaft 12 formed from a soft magnetic material (for example, iron or silicon steel) as a soft magnetic material. Yes. In the present embodiment, the entire shaft 12 forms a first magnetic body. The shaft 12 is assembled to housing members 14a and 14b that cover both ends of the motor 11 via bearings 13, and can rotate about the axis L of the shaft 12 with respect to the housing members 14a and 14b. It is supported. Each housing member 14a, 14b of the present embodiment is provided with a plurality of air holes (not shown) that penetrate the housing members 14a, 14b in the direction along the axis L of the shaft 12.

  A rotor (rotor) 15 is fixed (fixed) to the shaft 12. The rotor 15 is configured to be rotatable integrally with the shaft 12 around the axis L of the shaft 12. Further, the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12 and the inner peripheral surface of the rotor 15 are in close contact with each other. For this reason, the shaft 12 and the rotor 15 are magnetically coupled (coupled or connected). The rotor 15 is configured by laminating a plurality of steel plates made of a soft magnetic material in a direction along the axis L. For this reason, in the rotor 15, the magnetic flux flows more easily in the diameter direction and the circumferential direction of the rotor 15 orthogonal to the axis L than in the direction along the axis L.

  On the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 15, a plurality of rotor teeth 16 (five in this embodiment) as convex poles 16 are formed so as to protrude outward in the diameter direction of the rotor 15. Yes. The rotor teeth 16 are formed so as to divide the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 15 at equal intervals in the circumferential direction (72 ° intervals in this embodiment), and the front end surfaces of the rotor teeth 16 are all the same peripheral surface. Located on the top. Each rotor tooth 16 is formed over the entire width of the rotor 15 along the axis L. In other words, it can be understood that the rotor teeth 16 of the present embodiment are formed by providing a recess extending along the axis L of the shaft 12 from the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 15 toward the shaft 12. Thus, the rotor 15 of this embodiment is configured not to include a permanent magnet.

  An annular stator (stator) 17 is disposed around the rotor 15 so as to surround the rotor 15. The stator 17 includes a stator core 18 formed by laminating a plurality of steel plates made of a soft magnetic material in the direction along the axis L on the inner peripheral surface side. For this reason, in the stator core 18, the magnetic flux flows more easily in the diameter direction and the circumferential direction of the stator core 18 orthogonal to the axis L than in the direction along the axis L of the shaft 12. The dimension of the stator core 18 along the axis L is set to the same dimension as the dimension of the rotor 15 along the axis L.

  The stator core 18 is formed with a plurality of (in this embodiment, 12) stator teeth 19 so as to protrude from the inner peripheral surface of the stator core 18 toward the shaft 12, and each stator tooth 19 is The inner peripheral surface of the stator core 18 is formed so as to be divided at equal intervals (30 ° intervals in the present embodiment) in the circumferential direction. A slight gap (for example, 0.7 mm) is formed between the front end surface of each rotor tooth 16 (the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 15) and the inner peripheral surface of the stator teeth 19 (stator 17). A conductive wire is wound around each stator tooth 19 (concentrated winding in the present embodiment) to form a stator coil 20 as an armature coil. That is, in the present embodiment, the stator coil 20 is formed on the surface of the stator 17 that faces the rotor 15. Each stator coil 20 is any one of a U-phase winding, a V-phase winding, and a W-phase winding, and generates a rotating magnetic field by flowing currents having different phase differences.

  Further, as described above, since the stator 17 (stator teeth 19) and the rotor 15 have the same dimension along the axis L, both end portions of the stator coil 20 in the direction along the axis L ( The coil end) protrudes outward in the direction along the axis L from both ends of the rotor 15. Therefore, an annular space Sa sandwiched between the stator coil 20 and the shaft 12 is formed at positions corresponding to both end faces of the rotor 15 in the direction along the axis L (shown in FIG. 2).

  Further, the stator 17 is provided with a bypass core 22 that is formed so as to extend along the axis L and that covers the outer peripheral surface of the stator core 18 as a cylindrical second magnetic body. The bypass core 22 is made of powder molded magnetic material (SMC: Soft Magnetic Compositions). Further, the outer peripheral surface of the stator core 18 and the inner peripheral surface of the bypass core 22 are in close contact with each other. For this reason, the stator core 18 and the bypass core 22 are magnetically coupled. A plurality (12 in the present embodiment) of notches formed in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape along the direction of the axis L from the front end surface is formed on the inner peripheral surfaces of both ends of the bypass core 22 in the direction along the axis L. A recess 22a is provided. In the present embodiment, the shaft 12, the rotor 15, and the stator 17 constitute the main motor unit 25.

  On both ends of the shaft 12 (main motor unit 25) in the direction along the axis L, field poles 26 for generating a field magnetic flux are arranged so as to form a pair. Each field pole 26 includes a field pole core (field pole yoke) 27 that magnetically connects the bypass core 22 and the shaft 12. The field pole core 27 is formed by laminating a plurality of steel plates punched and formed in the same shape in the direction along the axis L. The field pole core 27 is formed in an annular shape and has a fixed portion 27a for inserting the shaft 12, and extends perpendicularly from the fixed portion 27a to the axis L and radially outward (spoke) from the axis L. A plurality (12 in this embodiment) of arm portions 27b as third magnetic bodies are formed. Each arm part 27b is arrange | positioned so that the outer peripheral surface of the fixing | fixed part 27a may be divided | segmented at equal intervals (this embodiment 30 degree interval). Moreover, the front-end | tip part (outer end) of each arm part 27b located in the outer side of the direction orthogonal to the axis line L is not mutually connected, but is made into the open state. Further, in each arm portion 27b, on the shaft 12 (fixed portion 27b) side, a conducting wire is wound and a field coil 29 is formed. The dimension from the axis L to the end of each field coil 29 located outside in the direction orthogonal to the axis L is set to the same dimension, and from the axis L to the inner peripheral surface of the stator coil 20. It is set smaller than the dimension.

  The field pole 26 is assembled to the main motor portion 25 (stator 17) so that the tip ends of the arm portions 27b of the field pole core 27 are inserted into the recesses 22a formed at both ends of the bypass core 22. Yes. In the state in which the field pole core 27 is assembled to the stator 17, the tip end portion (tip end surface) of each arm portion 27 b is in close contact with the bypass core 22, and each arm portion 27 b (field pole core 27) and the bypass core 22 (stator 17) is magnetically coupled. The shaft 12 is inserted through the fixed portion 27 a of the field pole core 27. The inner peripheral surface of the fixing portion 27a and the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12 are arranged to face each other so as to be parallel to each other, and a slight gap (for example, 0.3 mm) is formed between the two peripheral surfaces. ing. In the present embodiment, the inner peripheral surface of the fixing portion 27a is the gap surface 27g. Thus, in the present embodiment, the field pole core 27 is disposed so that the gap surface 27g faces (opposes) the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12. Therefore, the field pole core 27 (each arm portion 27b) and the shaft 12 are magnetically coupled via the gap surface 27g. Moreover, it can be grasped that each arm portion 27b of the present embodiment is formed by laminating a plurality of steel plates extending so as to magnetically connect the shaft 12 and the bypass core 22.

  In the state where the field pole core 27 is assembled to the stator 17, the field coil 29 is disposed at a position corresponding to the rotor 15 and is inserted into the space Sa. That is, the field coil 29 and the rotor 15 are opposed to each other on the inner side (the rotor 15 side) in the direction along the axis L than the stator coil 20. Further, in a state where the field pole core 27 is assembled to the stator 17, a substantially triangular shape is seen between the arm portions 27 b as viewed from the end face side of the shaft 12 so as to be surrounded by the arm portions 27 b and the bypass core 22. Space Sb is formed (shown in FIG. 1).

  In the motor 11 of the present embodiment, a conductor (not shown) for energizing the stator coil 20 is drawn out of the motor 11 from the housing member 14b side through the space Sb. Further, a current flows through the field coil 29 of each field pole core 27 so that a magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) is formed from the stator 17 (bypass core 22) side toward the shaft 12 side. It is supposed to be. Both end portions of the main motor portion 25 in the direction along the axis L are covered with the housing members 14a and 14b described above, so that the rotor 15, the inside of the stator 17, and the field pole 26 are not exposed. Yes.

Next, the operation of the motor 11 configured as described above will be described focusing on the magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) formed when each field coil 29 is energized.
As shown in FIG. 2, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the field magnetic flux generated in each arm portion 27 b due to the current flowing through each field coil 29 is mutually directed toward the intermediate point between both field magnetic poles 26. Passes through the shaft 12 so as to oppose (indicated by an arrow Y1). The field magnetic flux generated in each field coil 29 repels (collises) in the shaft 12 and is induced in a direction perpendicular to the axis L of the shaft 12 (diameter direction of the rotor 15) (arrow). Y2). The field magnetic flux that has passed through each rotor tooth 16 of the rotor 15 passes through each stator tooth 19 and enters the bypass core 22 and is directed toward each field magnetic pole 26 (indicated by an arrow Y3). The field magnetic flux that has entered the arm portion 27b of each field pole core 27 from the bypass core 22 passes through each arm portion 27b and enters the shaft 12 again via the gap surface 27g (indicated by an arrow Y4).

  As described above, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the shaft 12, the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15, the bypass core 22, and the field pole core 27 (arm portion 27b) of the field pole 26 pass in this order, and enter the shaft 12 again. Thus, an annular (loop-shaped) magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) is formed (indicated by arrows Y1 to Y4). For this reason, in the motor 11 of this embodiment, the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15 have an N-pole polarity due to the field magnetic flux. That is, in the present embodiment, the rotor teeth 16 (field magnetic flux) have the same function as the permanent magnet disposed on the rotor in the permanent magnet synchronous motor.

  In the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the field flux can be increased by increasing the amount of current flowing through each field coil 29, and a larger torque can be obtained. On the other hand, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the field flux can be reduced by reducing the amount of current flowing through each field coil 29 during high-speed rotation, and the maximum rotation speed can be improved. That is, in the motor 11 of this embodiment, the maximum torque and the maximum rotation speed can be improved only by the strong magnetic field control. Therefore, in the motor 11 of this embodiment, the weakening magnetic field control required when a permanent magnet is disposed in the rotor 15 is not necessary, and the configuration can be simplified.

  Further, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, a cooling medium such as air outside the motor 11 is passed through the air holes formed in the housing members 14a and 14b and the space Sb formed between the arm portions 27b. It can introduce | transduce into the inside of the motor 11, and the inside (the rotor 15, the stator core 18, the stator coil 20, etc.) of the motor 11 can be cooled easily.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) By energizing the field coil 29 formed on each arm portion 27b of the field pole core 27, a magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) is caused by the shaft 12, the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15, and the bypass core 22 of the stator 17. ) Can be formed. Each arm portion 27b is formed so as to extend in a direction orthogonal to the axis L of the shaft 12, and is disposed so as to form a space Sb between each arm portion 27b. For this reason, the cooling medium can be introduced into the motor 11 through the space Sb formed between the arm portions 27 b forming the field pole core 27, and the inside of the motor 11 can be easily cooled. Further, in the present embodiment, a conducting wire for energizing a coil (such as the stator coil 20) formed in the motor 11 is drawn out from the field pole core 27 side through the space Sb formed between the arm portions 27b. Therefore, the conductor can be easily handled.

  (2) In particular, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the stator coil 20 is formed in the stator 17, and penetrates the stator core 18 and the bypass core 22 when trying to draw a conducting wire from the side of the motor 11. It is necessary to provide a drawer opening. In this case, the magnetic paths formed in the stator core 18 and the bypass core 22 are partially divided, and there is a possibility that the output of the motor 11 is reduced and the amount of magnetic flux in the rotor teeth 16 is not uniform. In the present embodiment, a conductive wire for energizing a coil (such as the stator coil 20) formed in the motor 11 is connected to the outside of the motor 11 from the housing member 14b side via a space Sb formed between the arm portions 27b. Such a problem is suitably solved by making it possible to pull out to the right.

  (3) The plurality of arm portions 27b are formed to extend radially outward from the shaft 12, and the tip portions of the arm portions 27b are not connected to each other and are in an open state. . For this reason, the space Sb between the arm portions 27b can be easily formed, and the cooling of the inside of the motor 11 and the handling of the conducting wire can be facilitated.

  (4) The gap surface 27 g (the inner peripheral surface of the fixed portion 27 a) of the field pole core 27 is disposed so as to face the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12. Therefore, a magnetic path can be easily formed so that the field magnetic flux that has passed through the stator 17 passes through the field pole core 27 (arm portion 27b) and enters the shaft 12 again. Therefore, it is possible to suppress a reduction in the field magnetic flux amount in the rotor teeth 16 and obtain a larger torque.

  (5) The field poles 26 are disposed so as to form a pair on both ends of the shaft 12 (the main motor unit 25), and the field coil 29 formed on each field pole 26 has a magnetic path from each field pole 26. The electric current was made to flow so that the (field magnetic flux flows) were formed in opposite directions. For this reason, since the magnetic paths are formed in opposite directions from both ends of the shaft 12, the field magnetic fluxes generated by the field magnetic poles 26 repel each other at the shaft 12, and at the outside of the rotor 15 in the diameter direction ( It is guided to the rotor teeth 16). Therefore, the amount of field magnetic flux in the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15 can be improved, and a larger torque can be obtained.

  (6) The amount of magnetic material used can be reduced compared to the case where the field pole core 27 is formed in a disk shape. Moreover, since the field pole core 27 is formed by laminating steel plates, the strength of the field pole core 27 can be improved as compared with the case of forming by SMC.

  (7) Each arm portion 27b is formed to extend in a direction orthogonal to the axis L. For this reason, even when the number of turns of the field coil 29 is increased, it is only necessary to sequentially wind in the extending direction of each arm portion 27b, and the axis line increases as the diameter of the field coil 29 increases. An increase in the size of the motor 11 in the direction along L can be suppressed.

  (8) The field pole 26 is assembled to the stator 17 so that the tip of each arm 27 b of the field pole core 27 is inserted into the recess 22 a formed at both ends of the bypass core 22. For this reason, compared with the case where it assembles | attaches so that the front-end | tip part of each arm part 27b may be in contact with the both end surfaces of the bypass core 22, it is magnetically connected with the bypass core 22 and the field pole core 27 (each arm part 27b). Can be strengthened.

  (9) In the motor 11 of this embodiment, a permanent magnet can be omitted from the rotor 15. Generally, permanent magnets used in permanent magnet synchronous motors are rare and expensive permanent magnets such as rare earth magnets, which has been one of the causes of increased motor manufacturing costs. On the other hand, in the motor 11 of this embodiment, a permanent magnet becomes unnecessary and the increase in the cost of the motor 11 can be suppressed.

  (10) Further, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, since no permanent magnet is used, the occurrence of drag loss can be suppressed. Further, in the permanent magnet synchronous motor, when the strong magnetic field control or the weak magnetic field control is performed, the amount of magnetic flux is unbalanced between the N pole and the S pole. There is no problem.

  (11) Compared with the configuration in which the permanent magnet is disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 15 or the configuration in which the permanent magnet is wound around the rotor 15, the configuration in which the permanent magnet and the winding are prevented from scattering (protecting the rotor 15) And the like, and the configuration of the rotor 15 can be simplified. Therefore, it contributes to the improvement of the maximum rotation speed.

  (12) In the motor 11 of the present embodiment, a configuration in which a field magnetic flux is generated by energizing each field coil 29 is adopted, unlike a configuration using permanent magnets. For this reason, in this embodiment, the amount of field magnetic flux can be freely adjusted by controlling the field current passed through each field coil 29. That is, in the motor 11 of the present embodiment, the field torque can be increased by increasing the field magnetic flux to improve the maximum torque, or the field magnetic flux can be decreased to increase the maximum rotational speed. In particular, in the motor 11 of this embodiment, the maximum torque and the maximum rotation speed can be improved only by the strong magnetic field control. For this reason, the control configuration of the motor 11 can be simplified.

(Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment embodying the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the following description, the same configurations and the same control contents as those of the already described embodiments are denoted by the same reference numerals, and the overlapping description is omitted and simplified. In the second embodiment, the shape of the field pole core 27 is different from that of the first embodiment, and the other parts are the same.

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, in the field pole core 27 of the present embodiment, a fixed portion 27a made of a soft magnetic material formed in a substantially annular shape and each arm portion 27b are formed separately. . The shaft 12 is inserted through the fixed portion 27a, and the inner peripheral surface of the fixed portion 27a is disposed to face the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12 with a slight gap (for example, 0.3 mm). For this reason, the fixing | fixed part 27a and the shaft 12 are magnetically connected. In the present embodiment, the inner peripheral surface of the fixing portion 27a is the gap surface 27g.

  In addition, each arm portion 27b of the present embodiment includes a plurality of steel plates made of a soft magnetic material in a direction perpendicular to the direction in which each arm portion 27b extends and perpendicular to the axis L (that is, a circumferential direction around the axis L). It is formed by laminating. Each arm portion 27b is fixed to the fixing portion 27a such that the base end portion (base end surface) on the shaft 12 side is in close contact with the outer peripheral surface of the fixing portion 27a. Each arm portion 27b and the fixing portion 27a are Are magnetically coupled. Each arm portion 27b is formed with a proximity portion K so as to be close to the rotor 15 side in the direction along the axis L at a position (region) corresponding to the rotor 15 (space Sa). In addition, each arm portion 27b is bent to the opposite side of the rotor 15 in the direction along the axis L from the proximity portion K, and then outside of the stator coil 20 in the direction orthogonal to the axis L, with the shaft 12 The distal end portion (tip surface) on the opposite side is bent again so as to face (oppose) the end surface of the bypass core 22 (stator 17).

  A field coil 29 is wound around the proximity portion K of the arm portion 27b. For this reason, the field coil 29 is placed at a position corresponding to the rotor 15 and is inserted into the space Sa. That is, the field coil 29 and the rotor 15 are opposed to each other on the inner side (the rotor 15 side) in the direction along the axis L than the coil end of the stator coil 20. In other words, the end portion (coil end) on the rotor 15 side of the field coil 29 in the direction along the axis L is located closer to the rotor 15 than the coil end of the stator coil 20.

Therefore, according to this embodiment, in addition to the effects (1) to (12) of the first embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(13) Each arm portion 27b of the field pole core 27 is formed with a proximity portion K so as to be close to the rotor 15 side at a position corresponding to the rotor 15 (space Sa). A coil 29 is wound. For this reason, the field coil 29 can be arranged by using the position (area) corresponding to the rotor 15, that is, the space Sa where the stator coil 20 formed in the stator does not exist. For this reason, it can suppress that each field coil 29 protrudes on the opposite side (outside of the motor 11) of the rotor 15 among the directions along the axis L of the shaft 12, and the motor 11 can be reduced in size.

  (14) Each arm portion 27b is formed by laminating a plurality of steel plates extending so as to magnetically connect the shaft 12 and the bypass core 22. For this reason, in this embodiment, the whole arm part 27b including the proximity part K can be simply formed only by laminating | stacking the steel plate of the same shape.

In addition, you may change this embodiment as follows.
In the second embodiment, the stacking direction of the steel plates forming each arm portion 27b may be changed as appropriate. However, as in the second embodiment, from the viewpoint of easily forming the arm portion 27b, the stacking direction of the steel plates is orthogonal to the direction in which each arm portion 27b extends and is orthogonal to the axis L. preferable.

  In the second embodiment, the fixing portion 27a and each arm portion 27b may be integrally formed. Similarly, in the first embodiment, the fixing portion 27a and each arm portion 27b may be formed separately.

  In the above embodiments, the fixing portion 27a may be omitted. That is, it is only necessary that the end surface of each arm portion 27 b on the shaft 12 side is fixed so as to face the outer peripheral surface of the shaft 12. In this case, the base end surface on the shaft 12 side of each arm portion 27b becomes the gap surface 27g. In this example, each arm portion 27 b forms a field pole core 27.

In the above embodiments, the number of arm portions 27b of the field pole core 27 may be changed as appropriate.
In each of the above embodiments, each arm portion 27b of the field pole core 27 may have a different shape. Hereinafter, a specific description will be given with reference to FIG. 5 shows a state in which the end surface of the shaft 12 is viewed from the front, and the housing member 14a, the rotor 15 (rotor teeth 16), the stator core 18 (stator teeth 19), and the stator coil 20 are not shown. It is illustrated. For example, as shown in FIG. 5A, each arm portion 27b may be formed so as to extend in a direction not intersecting with the axis L. Moreover, as shown in FIG.5 (b), each arm part 27b may be bent. Further, as shown in FIG. 5 (c), each arm portion 27b may be branched into a plurality at the bypass core 22 side of the stator 17, and conversely, it is branched into a plurality at the fixing portion 27a (shaft 12) side. You may do it. That is, each arm part 27b should just be formed so that it may extend in the direction which cross | intersects the direction along the axis line L. FIG. More specifically, each arm portion 27b only needs to intersect the direction along the axis of the shaft 12 with all or a part of the center line of each arm portion 27b when viewed from the end face side of the shaft 12. The center line may not intersect the axis L. Each arm 27b may be formed in any shape as long as the shaft 12 and the bypass core 22 of the stator 17 are magnetically coupled.

  In each of the above embodiments, as shown in FIG. 5 (d), an annular connecting portion 27c that connects the tip portions (outer ends) of the arm portions 27b located outside in the direction orthogonal to the axis L to each other.

  In each of the above embodiments, the field coil 29 may be formed on each arm portion 27b, and may be formed on the stator 17 side or the entire arm portion 27b. Each field coil 29 may be formed at a position not corresponding to the rotor 15 or may be disposed outside the space Sa. However, from the viewpoint of downsizing the motor 11, it is preferable to configure as in the above embodiments.

  In each of the above embodiments, the field magnetic pole 26 may be provided only on one side of the main motor unit 25 (shaft 12). Even in this configuration, when the field coil 29 is energized, it passes through the shaft 12, the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15, the bypass core 22, and the field pole core 27 (each arm portion 27 b) in order, and again An annular magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) can be formed so as to enter the shaft 12. However, when the field magnetic pole 26 is configured to be provided on only one side, a part of the generated field magnetic flux may pass through the shaft 12 without entering the rotor 15 (rotor teeth 16). It is preferable to configure as in each embodiment.

  In the above embodiments, the number of rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15 may be changed as appropriate. Moreover, you may change suitably the number of the stator teeth 19 of the stator 17. FIG. That is, the motor 11 is not limited to being configured with 10 poles and 12 slots, and may have a different configuration such as 20 poles and 24 slots.

In the above embodiment, each stator coil 20 may be formed by distributed winding.

Specifically, in the shaft 12, an annular shaft bypass core made of a soft magnetic material is disposed over the entire circumference between positions corresponding to the gap surfaces 27g of the paired field poles 26. In this case, the shaft bypass core may be made of a material having less eddy current loss than the base portion of the shaft 12. With this configuration, it is possible to easily form a magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) to the rotor teeth 16 formed in the rotor 15. Therefore, the amount of field magnetic flux in the rotor teeth 16 can be improved, and a larger torque can be obtained. In this case, the base portion of the shaft 12 may be formed of a nonmagnetic material.

  (Circle) in each said embodiment, you may change the shape of each rotor teeth 16 suitably. In other words, each rotor tooth 16 may function as a convex pole portion that easily allows magnetic flux to pass in the diameter direction of the rotor 15.

  (Circle) in each said embodiment, you may change the shape of the bypass core 22 suitably. That is, the bypass core 22 only needs to be able to guide the field magnetic flux received from the rotor teeth 16 of the rotor 15 to each arm portion 27b.

In the above embodiment, a spacer made of a nonmagnetic material may be disposed between the rotor teeth 16.
In the above embodiment, the motor 11 may be embodied as an outer rotor type motor. More specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, a bottomed cylindrical outer rotor body (first magnetic body) 30a made of a soft magnetic material is fixed to the shaft 12 so as to be rotatable integrally with the shaft 12.

Further, on the outer peripheral surface of the iron core 32, a plurality of arm portions (third magnetic bodies) 27b extending radially outward from the iron core 32 are formed on the bottom side of the outer rotor main body 30a with respect to the stator teeth 19. . In this example, each arm portion 27 b forms a field pole core 27. A field coil 29 is formed on each arm 27b, and an annular projecting portion 33 projecting inward in a band shape at a position corresponding to the arm portion 27b on the inner peripheral surface of the outer rotor main body 30a. Is formed. Each arm portion 27b and the protruding portion 33 are formed by laminating a plurality of steel plates. Even if comprised in this way, the magnetic flux which generate | occur | produced by sending an electric current to each field coil 29 passes each arm part 27b, the protrusion part 33, the outer rotor main body 30a, the rotor teeth 16, the stator teeth 19, and the iron core 32 in order. Then, an annular magnetic path (flow of field magnetic flux) can be formed so as to enter the arm portions 27b again (indicated by arrows Ya to Yc).
