Abstract

PURPOSE: To prevent the concentration of load currents to the surface of a carbon brush so as to improve the commutation of a commutator by removing metallic films formed on the surfaces of the brush parallel to the direction of rotation of the commutator in belt-like states from the front end face side to the rear end face side, thus exposing the base material of the brush. CONSTITUTION: When the entire surface of a carbon brush is coated with a metallic film, the commutation of a commutator tends to become worse due to the concentration of load currents to the low-resistance metallic film. Therefore, the base material 1 of the carbon brush is exposed by removing metallic films 4 formed on the upper and lower surfaces 9 of the base material 1 parallel to the direction of rotation of a commutator 6 in belt-like states from the front end face side to the rear end face side. When the films 4 are removed in such a way, the commutation of the commutator 6 can be improved, because low- resistance sections and high-resistance sections are separately formed on the upper and lower surfaces 9 and the concentration of load currents to rotational- direction components can be prevented, and then, the occurrence of short-circuit currents can be reduced and the commutator 6 can follow magnetic flux variation without delay.

2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, electric motors have tended to become smaller and have larger capacities, and the performance problems required for the carbon brushes used in them have also been high-temperature countermeasures due to miniaturization, low resistance, low wear, and large capacity. As the carbon brushes used for the carbon brushes are small, they have been required to have small resistance loss and little wear. Therefore,
Recently, in order to solve the above problems, except for the contact surface that contacts the rotating commutator, the peripheral surface of the carbon brush base material, for example, by applying an electrically conductive metal coating such as gold, silver, or copper, Even if the resistance of the carbon brush base material is high, the apparent resistance is reduced by the action of the metal coating provided on the peripheral surface of the carbon brush base material to reduce the overall electrical resistance, and as a result,
It has become possible to suppress the temperature rise of the carbon brush due to resistance heating.

Next, the operation will be described. The carbon brush conducts current with the commutator 6, which is a rotating body, and in the generator or the electric motor, when the current of the coil short-circuited by the carbon brush is electrically reversed by 180 ° C. during the contact period. It has the function of suppressing the short-circuit current flowing to the.

However, if the entire surface of the carbon brush is coated with a metal film, the rectification tends to be deteriorated. This is because the load current concentrates on the metal film with low resistance, and especially on the contact surface orthogonal to the rotating direction of the commutator, the delay of the change in magnetic flux due to the rapid concentration of the short-circuit current is one of the factors that cause sparks. ing.

[0006] Normally, if the load current is appropriately dispersed between the carbon brush and the commutator, no chance of sparking occurs, but like the contact state between the carbon brush and the commutator at the end of life, , If the resistance of the carbon brush becomes extremely low (the length of the carbon brush becomes shorter from the beginning to the end, the resistance value also becomes lower), the load current suddenly changes due to the inductance of the armature coil. It is difficult to reduce, and the current density becomes extremely large. Then, the temperature of the carbon brush and commutator rises rapidly,
Finally, the copper piece of the commutator, which is the contact portion, reaches the melting point and starts melting, and is drawn out from the contact portion to form a molten bridge. If the separation phenomenon of the melted bridge occurs continuously, its length extends in the direction of rotation and eventually it cannot vaporize because it cannot support it (Fig. 15
Around the arrow B shown in (), a spark is generated. This phenomenon is likely to occur when the difference between the resistance of the metal coating and the resistance of the carbon brush is 10,000 Ω or more.

Next, the operation will be described. The carbon brush conducts current with the commutator 6 of the armature, which is a rotating body, and in the generator or the electric motor, the current of the armature coil short-circuited by the carbon brush is an electric current during the contact period. It acts to suppress the short-circuit current that flows when the take-out direction is reversed by 180 degrees. This means that, for example, each coil of the armature is short-circuited twice with a carbon brush every one rotation, and the current in the coil is + I to -I each time.
Because the direction is reversed from -I to + I next time, the time starts from the moment when the armature coil is shorted by the carbon brush and ends when the short circuit is released, which is an extremely short time. Is.

In the carbon brush of this embodiment, the metal coating 4 applied to the upper and lower surfaces 9 of the carbon brush base material 1 provided in parallel with the rotating direction of the commutator 6 is stripped from the front end surface side to the rear end surface side.

As a result, the upper and lower surfaces 9 are separated and layered into a low resistance portion and a high resistance portion, the load current is prevented from concentrating on the rotational direction component, the short-circuit current is reduced, and the change of the magnetic flux is not delayed. Therefore, the rectifying function can be improved.

The upper and lower surfaces, for example, after the metal brush is coated on the entire surface of the carbon brush, only the tip surface is removed by cutting or the like in the next step, and in the next step, it is made parallel to the rotation direction. There is a method in which the metal coating film provided on the upper and lower surfaces provided is removed in a strip shape from the front end surface side to the end surface side to expose the carbon brush base material. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and by previously masking the portion where the carbon brush base material is exposed and applying a metal coating,
The carbon brush substrate may be exposed. As for the deletion width, if it is deleted too much, the apparent resistance value due to the metal film may be lowered, and the motor efficiency may be lowered. Therefore, for example, the deletion width should be 1/2 of the surface area of each of the upper and lower contact surfaces. The following is desirable because it has been experimentally verified from the graph of FIG. Further, the length of the metal coating to be removed does not need to be removed over the entire length from the front end to the rear end of the carbon brush, as long as the metal coating at the portion where the carbon brush is actually used may be removed.
