Description
June 18, 1963 M. MlLEs ELECTRIC 'rAcHoMETER SENDER Filed Nov. 23, 1959 United States Patent O 3,094,656 ELECTRIC TACHGMETER SENDER Marshall Miles, Skokie, Ill., assignor to Stewart-Warner Corporation, Chicago, Ill., a Corporation of Virginia Filed Nov. 23, 1959, Ser. No. 854,713 4 Claims. (Cl. 323-60) This .invention relates generally to' an improved energizing `circuit means for electrical tachometers.
IThe circuit means has been especially adapted for use with a tachometer receiving unit of the pulse motor type. Prior art senders for the pulse motor type tachometers have generally been characterized by a mechanical switch such as 'that shown in U.S. Patent 2,649,559, issued to Wargo on August 18, 1953. These mechanical switching devices must be specially designed for each particular vehicle distributor. It is a common practice among vehicle manufacturers to change the distributor design each year. As ta result, the switching devices must be modified frequently. In addition, mechanical commutating devices have wear problems.
Accordingly, it :is an object of the present invention to provide an improved non-mechanical switching arrangement for Operating the pulse motor receiver unit. In the preferred embodiment, the primary windings of a pair of transformers are' series connected in the circuits of two of the vehicle spark plutgs. The transformer secondary windings control a transistorized bistable device which at all times energizes one or the other circuit of the pulse motor in cyclical fashion.
However, conneeting the primary of a transformer into the high voltage side of an ignition system gives rise to serious insulation problems. The problem is even more complicated because of the requirement for an unusually compact transformer construction. In addition, it is necessary that the cost of the transformer be unusually low without sacrificing operational characteristics. In the highly competitive field of electrical tachometers, even relatively minor additions in cost can price a device out of the market.
It is therefore another primary object of the present invention to provide an improved, low cost transformer capable of withstanding high potential differences between the primary and secondary windings while maintaining good coupling in order to avoid excessive power losses. This object is accomplished by the provision of a tubular insulating shell. A 'central transverse membrane having a thickness in the order of 02D is provided in the shell. A primary and a `secondary core and coil assemblies are mounted on either side of the membrane in engagement therewith. The terminals of the primary and secondary coils extend outWar-dly from the assemihlies in spaccd relation. The primary and secondary cores form a generally toroidal low reluctance flux path broken only by the very th'in membrane. As a result, exceptionally good coupling is provided while at the same time a reliable insulation between the high voltage primary coil and the low voltage secondary coil is assured. By means of this generally H-shaped shell-membrane construction, a long external electrical leakage path is provided between the secondary winding and the primary winding terminals to preveut high voltage breakdown of the transformer.
Other object-s and the many features of the invention will be evident upon a perusal of the following description taken in conjunction with the drawings in which:
FlG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the improved tachometer circuit;
FIG. 2 is ta sectional elevation view of the improved transformer; and
Patented June v18, 1963 ICC FIGS. 3, 4, and 5 are perspective views ofcertain of the transformer components.
The improved tachometer comprises a sender 1 and a pulse motor receiver unit 2. The sender includes a pair of transformers 4 and 6 and a pair of transistors 8 and 10. A vehicle ignition system distributor 20 having breaker points 28 is connected in a well known manner with an ignition coil. The transformers include primary |windings 12 and 14 connected between spark plugs 22 and 24 and diametrically opposed contacts 16 and 18 of the distributor. Transformer secondary windings 30 and 32 are connected across the transistors 8 and 10. The turns ratio of the transforrner windings may conveniently be one to one for standardiza-tion of components.
The receiver unit 2 is a pulse motor driven tachometer of the type shown in U.S. Patents 2,649,5 5 9 and 2,871,433, issued to Wargo on August 18, 1953, and January 27, 1959, respectively. Briefly, the receiving unit 2 has two sets of field coils disposed in equally spaced circumferential arrangement. A switching means is operated to energize one set of coils, then the other, in sequence. An armature disposed for rotat-ion between the coils is advanced one step for each energization of each set of coils. Hence, the armature will rotate at a speed corresponding to the frequency of energization of the coil sets divided |by the number of coils in the set. 'Ihe 'armature is connected to a conventional speed indi'cating mechanism. Since 'the frequency of the pulses energizing the coils 34 and 36 is idependent upon the rotational speed of the distributor, the speed ndicating mechanism may be calibrated |to indicate the speed of the engine to which the distributor 20 is connected.
By connecting the two transformer-'s 4 and 6 to two contacts in the distributor 20, it is possible to use the same tachometer for indicating the engine speed for all engines having two or more cylinders.
The improved transformer 4 is best shown in FIG. 2. The transformer includes a hollow cylindrical shell 40 prcferably made of a high dielectric molding compound, for example, polypropylene. The hollow port-ion of the shell 40 is closed by a very tthin membrane 42 having a thickness in the order of 020. A primary winding assembly 44 is received in the shell 40 against the upper surface of the membrane 42. A secondary winding assembly 46 is received in the shell 40 against the opposite surface of the membrane. The assembly 44 includes a core element 48 preferably formed of a magnetic powder in -resin to assure low eddy current losses. The core 48 includes an annular recess 50 receiving the primary winding coil 12. The core also includes a pair of axially directed spaced bores 54 and 56 receiving the terminal leads 58 and 60 of the coil 12.
The assembly 46 is generally similar to assembly 44. The assembly 46 includes a core 62 and a coil 30 with terminals 64 and 66. The shell and the cores are preferably filled with a high delectr'ic filling compound such as Biwax No. E2013 manufactured by Biwax Corporation of Skokie, Illinois. The compound is preferably made flush with the ends of Ithe shell. The tbores, such as 56, and certain areas above the core 48 have not been shown with the sealing compound for the sake of clarity. However, it wil-l be appreciated that all spaces within the shell 40 are preferably -sealed fiush with the edge of the shell.
A resistor 70 shunts the primary 'coil 12 of the transformer 4 and serves the purpose of dissipating the energy stored in the primary coil 12 as current flows therethrough. This dissipation of energy is ach'ieved subsequent to eX- tinguishing the 'spark in -the plug 22. The resistor 70 also serves the function of permitting norm-al engine operation in the event of an open circuit in the primary winding 12 of the transformer 4. That is, the resistor 70 completes the circuit from the secondary winding of the coil 26 'to the spark plug 22. A similar resistor 71 shunts the coil 14 of the transformer 6.
A pair of tubular metallic' ferrules 72 and 74 define the primary winding terminals. The outer ends of the ferrules 72 l`and 74 -are provided respectively with grooves 92 and 94 for receiving conventional automotive ignition w-ire clips (not shown). The ferrules are press fit on a generally tubular fiber connector 76. The 'connector has a central outstanding fiange 78 separating and insulating the ferrules from each other. The shunting resistor 70 is positioned coaxially within the connector 76.
To assemble the terminals, the lead wires 80 and S2 at 'opposite ends of the shunting resistor are bent around the ends of the connector and positioned in flush engagement with the external periphery of the connector. The ferrules 72 and 74 are provided with slots 84 and 86 for receiving the leads 80 and 82. The ferrule and connector assembly is then inserted through transverse bores 88 and 90 in 'the shell 40. The leads 80 and 82 are then bent -outwardly away from the periphery of the connector 76. The primary coil leads 58 .and 60 are wound around the leads 80 'and 82 respectively. The leads are then soldered to their respective ferrules.
The secondary `lcoil leads 64 and 66 are soldered to a pair of terminal wires 96 and 98. The terminal wires 96 and 98 are knotted at 100. The knotted portion will not pass through the terminal aperture 102 thereby to provide -a strain relief for the secondary w-inding terminals 64 and 66. The entire assembly is now filled with a sealing compound 104. The compound is poured into the spaces in liquid form and subsequently hardens.
The operation of the tachometer Will now be described in detail. The breaker points 28 intermittently interrupt the primary circuit of the ignition coil 26 in a well known manner to produce high voltage igniton pu'lses through the spark plu'gs 22 land 24 as well as the other spark plugs (not shown) 'connected to each 'of the other distributor contacts. Each time the spark plugs 22 and 24 fire, a high current pulse passes through the primary windings 12 and 14 respectively. Each pulse in the primary windings 12 `and 14 produces a pulse in the corresponding secondary windings 30 and 32. The pulses in the secondary windings 30 andl 32 are applied to the transistors 8 and 10.
The transistors 8 and together with their coupling resistors 9 and 11 form an Eecles-Iordan bistable circuit. That is, one of the transistors 9' or 10 is conducting at all times through the respective receiver unit coil 34 or 36. The resistors 9 and 11 provide the transistor base bias.
Assume that the transistor 8 is in the non-conducting state and transistor 10 is condueting. A pulse in the output winding 30 of the transformer 4 is applied to the base of the transistor 8 to cause momentary conduction through the transistor. Current passed through the coil 34 lowers the negative potential at junction 13 and at the base 15 of the transistor 10. With the base 15 more positive, the transistor 10 eea-ses to conduct. The potentrial lat junction 17 |and at the base 19 of the transistor 8 becomes more negative, -and the transistor 8 becomes stabilized with appreciable current fiowing through the coil 34. A subsequent pulse in -the secondary coil 32 of the transformer 6 in a similar manner energ'izes the coil 36 and deenerg'izes the coil 34.
While there has been described what is at present believed to be the preferred embodment of the inven- 4 tion, it will be understood that various changes and modifications may be made therein; and it is contemplated to cover in the appended claims all such changes and modifications as fall Within the true spirit and scope of the invention.
