- Murphy ABSTRACT An overspeed governor for rotating air motors including speed sensing means for providing a signal corresponding to the speed of the motor, valve means located in the path of the air supply to the motor, and fluidic means responsive to the speed signal for controlling the operation of the valve.
- the system is preferably sealed from the inlet supply but exercises control over a portion of the inlet supply pressure which is used to actuate the valve.
- the valve is biased closed and motor speed above a selected level switches the control pressure away from the actuation means so that the valve closes.
- FIG. 6 95 ⁇ 97 Q ⁇ m ⁇ & ⁇ 78 I INVENTOR STANLEY.
- This invention relates to the field of air powered rotary tools, particularly of the pneumatic grinder class and is specifically directed to rotary air tools including safety devices for preventing overspeed.
- Portable air tools using rotary air motors are widely used in industrial, shop and field applications where they are subjected to hard use and frequent shocks, even in normal use. These tools are normally found in environments such as garages, machine shops, factory floors, etc. where they encounter frequent vibration, dirty atmospheres, and high ambient temperatures. Frequently, these conditions are generated by the use of the tool itself. Accordingly, the tools and the operating elements thereof must be constructed so as to withstand such severe treatment.
- Fluid-operated governors have been proposed to avoid these difficulties and provide tools which can safely be handled in a careless manner but these devices have not been successful.
- a basic problem is that it has not previously been possible to obtain sufficient power to operate a governing valve without using the compressed air supply and this air is so impure that it can block the fluidic system and cause it to fail.
- these devices are still subject to the difficulties of slow response and hunting" above and below the selected speed value.
- the governor is also adapted to maintain the tool in an off condition if the governor becomes inoperative while the tool is shut off.
- Another object of this invention is the provision of a new and improved regulating speed governor for air tools.
- Another object is the provision of an air tool governor having improved response.
- Another object of this invention is the provision of an overspeed governor for air motors which is of increased sensitivity to speed changes.
- a further object of this invention is the provision of an improved air tool having an effective overspeed control.
- Another object of this invention is the provision of new and improved portable air tools of increased safety.
- an overspeed governor for rotating air motors which includes speed sensing means associated with the rotor for providing a signal corresponding to the speed of the rotor, valve means located in the supply path of air to the motor for regulating the air supply, and fluidic means responsive to the speed signal for controlling the operation of the valve so that an overspeed produces a corrective reduction of the air supply.
- the speed sensing means preferably includes a rotating member attached to the shaft which provides a speed signal such as fluid pressure. This signal is both the source of energy and the control signal for the fluidic control means which maintains the governor valve open so that either failure of the speed sensor or an overspeed signal causes shut down.
- the valve is operated by the air supply pressure, under the control of the fluidic means.
- the valve is preferably biased in the closed direction so that failure of the governor produces shut down of the motor.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an operator using a portable grinding tool
- FIG. 2 is a schematic view of a preferred embodiment in accord with the present invention.
- FIG. 3 is a plan view, partially in cross section of a specific embodiment of this invention.
- FIG. 4 is a plan view of an element of the system shown in FIG. 2;
- FIG. 5 is a schematic view of an alternative embodiment of this invention.
- FIG. 6 is a schematic view of a further alternative embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 1 A typical application of a portable air-driven grinder is illustrated in FIG. 1 wherein an operator is shown applying the tool to grind smooth a welded seam.
- the tool is subject to the varying degree of operator pressure which may be applied, the self-generated heat and metallic dust and other severe conditions during use, as previously described.
- present governors are constructed to withstand these conditions, improper or abusive use, handling or maintenance of the tool, such as might occur if the operator left the tool on the workpiece and it was knocked to the floor, can cause the difficulties previously mentioned.
- This system includes an air motor 5 of an air-powered tool coupled to a source of compressed air (not shown) through a governor valve 6 and an on-off valve 7.
- the motor is coupled through a shaft 8 to a working device such as a grinding wheel 9.
- a speed sensing unit 10 which is shown schematically.
- This element represents any appropriate transducer which produces an output signal indicative of the speed of the motor.
- a primary feature of air-driven grinders is that of safety since no electrical power is required, thus eliminating the danger of shock. Accordingly, a particular feature of the present invention is that of providing a sensing unit which produces its output as a parameter of a fluidic system, thus maintaining the safety aspect of air-driven grinders.
- the fluidic signal be the pressure output of a small fan or a compressor which rotates with the air motor.
- the pressure output of the speed sensing device is used as both the source and the control in the speed regulating unit 11, as indicated by the connective lines 12 and 13 respectively.
- the speed regulator comprises means for controlling the output stream from the speed sensor according to its pressure so as to transmit an "open” or closed instruction to the valve control unit 14 by means of the pressure of the stream from the sensor. Specifically, for overspeed regulation, the speed regulator 11 transmits the open" instruction until the selected maximum value for the speed signal is reached, at which time the instruction changes to close,” which closes the governor valve.
- the valve control 14 comprises means for utilizing a portion of the supply air to control the governor valve; specifically, to open the valve when the open" instruction is received.
- the valve control 14 comprises means for utilizing a portion of the supply air to control the governor valve; specifically, to open the valve when the open" instruction is received.
- the governor valve is biased closed when the motor is shut down. This protects the operator against possible failure of the governor system when the motor is being started for the first time after an extended period without use. With the valve biased closed, the motor will not start if some portion of the governor mechanism has become broken, blocked or frozen due to corrosion, etc. To enable starting of the motor in this case, a bypass tube 17 is provided around the governor.
- the on-off valve 7 is operated and a small supply of air produces an initial rotation of the motor via bypass tube 17.
- the speed sensor 10 produces a small output which enables the valve control 14 to open the governor valve 6.
- the governor valve may be maintained in a partially opened condition or it may alternate between its full-open and full-closed positions in a duty cycle which maintains the motor in a speed range very close to its rated speed.
- the system of this invention provides improved response to speed changes and is not subject to mechanical failure due to careless treatment.
- a particular advantage of this system is the fact that the governor uses a fluidic control over a portion of the air supply to control the governing valve, thus enabling a low power speed signal to control the operation of the governor valve.
- Further features include the use of a pressure-generating speed sensor and the provision of a fluidic system which has no moving parts and therefore is not subject to wear or corrosion. Also, since the valve is biased closed, the failure of the speed sensor and the consequent lack of a speed signal at the fluidic controller causes shutdown. As previously noted, the closed bias applied to the governor valve prevents failure of the governor mechanism if corrosion occurs during an idle period.
- FIG. 3 a preferred embodiment of this invention is illustrated which, in addition to the above-noted features, is compact and packaged within the housing of the device. This is required for practical use in portable devices.
- the particular device shown is a portable grinding tool 19 which includes a handle 20 adapted to be grasped by an operator, an air motor 5 and a rotating element 9 which comprises a grinding wheel.
- An inlet for the driving air extends via conduit 21 through handle 20, through a governor valve indicated generally at 6 and through an inlet passage 22 in the motor housing 23 which directs it to the motor to produce rotation.
- the illustrated motor includes a rotor 24, a stationary cylinder 25 supported in the housing 23 and a plurality of vanes 26 which are slidably mounted within the rotor.
- the rotor is eccentrically mounted with respect to the cylinder so that introduction of the pressurized air into a confined region defined by the rotor, the cylinder and the vanes causes rotation as the air expands.
- the rotor is mounted on a shaft 8 which rotates in bearings 27, supported by a member 28 which is suitably affixed to housing 23.
- the shaft is provided with an extension 29 to drive the speed sensing means 10.
- the speed sensor comprises a small fan or compressor which includes a rotor 30 mounted on the shaft extension 29, a stationary cylinder 31 and a plurality of vanes 32 slidably mounted in the rotor.
- the cylinder is mounted within an end housing 33-which is suitably affixed to motor housing 23.
- the compressor is enclosed between bottom plate 34 and top plate 35.
- a chamber 36, containing air or other appropriate fluid, is defined by the housing 33 and communication with the inlet region of the compressor is provided by a passage 37.
- the chamber may be in communication with the atmosphere through means such as a porous plug 38 which acts as a filter to prevent entry of dust, etc. and it is sealed from the dirty air passing through the motor by bearing support member 28. Due to eccentric mounting of the rotor 30 with respect to the cylinder 31, the compressor produces a pressure at its outlet 39 which corresponds to the speed of the motor 5.
- the compressed air produced by the compressor 30 is, in this embodiment, used as the supply air for the fluidic system.
- a fluidic gating member 40 is mounted at the top of the housing 33 between gaskets 41 and is held in place by a cover plate 42 and a plurality of bolts, not shown.
- a plan view of the gating member 40 is shown in FIG. 4.
- the compressor outlet 39 communicates through passage 43 to an inlet port 44. In accord with the normal action of fluidic gates, the air supplied at the inlet port passes through the fluidic member and exits through one or the other of outlet ports 45 or 46.
- a unique definition of the air path from the inlet port 44 to one or the other of the outlet ports is provided by the differential pressure between the control ports 47 and 48; that is, the existence of a higher pressure at one of the control ports pushes the supply air stream against the opposite wall and, due to the phenomenon of wall attachment, the supply stream passes only to the corresponding outlet port.
- the pressure at control port 47 is higher than that at control port 48, the supply air passes entirely to outlet port 45.
- the pressure at control port 48 increases to a higher level than that at control port 47, the air stream is switched to the other wall and it is entirely directed to outlet port 46.
- Vents 49 and 50 are connected through passages, not shown, to chamber 36 and insure that the attachment of the stream to the respective walls is maintained despite loading on outlet ports 45 and 46.
- outlet port 45 communicates through passage 51 with the governor valve 6 so as to cause it to open.
- the other outlet port 46 communicates through passage 52 to the chamber 36, thus returning the compressor air to its reservoir.
- the control ports 47 and 48 are arranged so as to direct the air stream to outlet port 45 and maintain the governor valve open until an overspeed signal is received at which time the air supply is switched to the outlet port 46 so that the bias of the governor valve causes it to close.
- control port 47 is connected through a passage 53 to the chamber 36 which the control port 48 is connected through a passage 54 including a check valve to the compressor outlet passage 43.
- the check valve which includes a diaphragm 55, a spring 56, and an adjusting screw 57, which biases the diaphragm closed until a predetermined pressure is received from the compressor.
- the governor closes, thus shutting down the motor.
- the check valve closes and the governor is opened by switching of the supply stream.
- the motor is maintained at its rated speed.
- the governor valve 6 as shown in detail in FIG. 3, is
- the body includes a bore 61 in which is mounted a valve member 62.
- the member blocks communication between the air inlet conduit 21 and internal passage 22 except for the small bleeder passage 63 which provides sufficient air to permit the motor to start.
- the valve member is biased into the closed position by means of aspring 64 and further upward travel is prevented by any suitable stop 65.
- the air passing through the bleeder passage 63 produces a pressure in the internal passage 22 and also in the region 66 of the bore around the valve stem 67.
- a small bleeder passage 68 communicates by one or more outlets 69 with this region and also with an enclosed chamber 70 above an upper member 71 on the valve stem 67. Other air communication is prevented by means of the valve guide 72 and O-ring seals 73.
- the enclosed chamber 70 communicates through a rigid upper wall 74 through a tube 75 into a vented chamber 76.
- the vent is through an outlet 77.
- the inlet pressure is communicated via bleeder passage 63 to the internal passage 22.
- This air starts an initial, low speed rotation of the motor while simultaneously supplying a pressure through internal region 66, bleeder passage 68, and enclosed chamber 70 to vented chamber 76.
- the compressor also turns and generates a supply stream which, due to the atmospheric pressure from chamber 36 and control port 47, passes through outlet 45 and passage 51 into an upper enclosed chamber 78 in the governor valve bore.
- the enclosed chamber 78 is separated from the vented chamber 76 by a flexible diaphragm 79.
- the diaphragm 79 is forced against the tube 75, thus breaking the communication between the enclosed chamber 70 and the outlet 77. Since the supply air pressure continues to build up in the enclosed chamber 70, this pressure now acts against the upper valve member 71, thus moving the valve against the force of spring 64 and opening it to allow full communication between the air inlet and the internal region 66.
- the bleeder passages 68 are sized so that, with the air supply passing normally through internal passage 22 to the motor, the pressure in chamber 70 does not overcome the pressure supplied by the compressor to the upper chamber 78. Thus, as long as the normal motor speed is not exceeded, the governor valve is maintained in the open position.
- the check valve is designed to have a very high sensitivity and speed of response.
- this valve operates very rapidly for a very slight change in inlet pressure due to movement of the governor valve member 62.
- the valve member would pulsate about a nearly stable position while the check valve alternated rapidly between open and fully closed. In this manner, the operation of the motor appears to be nearly continuous and the small variation is not noticeable to the operator.
- other methods of accomplishing this result which are familiar to those skilled in the art may be used instead.
- FIG. 5 is a schematic illustration of an embodiment similar to that of FIG. 3 except that the fluidic system uses filtered air from the motor supply.
- the supply conduit 22 is modified as illustrated by the expanded region 80 to deliver a portion of the inlet air to inlet port 44 through passage 81.
- a filter 82 is required.
- this is a five micron filter; that is, a filter which will not permit the passage of any particle greater than five microns in diameter.
- FIG. 6 is a schematic illustration of a further alternative embodiment of this invention.
- the motor 5, the inlet path and the lower portion of the governor valve 6 have been omitted since these are similar to those shown in FIG. 3.
- the speed signal in this embodiment is produced by a fan which is mounted on the extension 29 of the motor shaft.
- the fan produces its output signal adjacent the tips ofits blades while a low pressure exists in the region of the shaft.
- the outlet 91 accordingly is positioned at the outer periphery of the fan 90 and the air flow is directed through passage 92 into a force balancing device 93.
- This device includes a flexible diaphragm 94 which is biased by spring 95 to seal the diaphragm against the opening into a return passage 96.
- the degree of force exerted by this spring is adjustable by means of set screw 97.
- the pressure through passage 92 exceeds the spring bias of spring 95, thus opening the passage 96. Since this passage communicates with the center of the fan, it is returned to the low pressure region and the air flow passes through it rather than into the closed chamber 78. Thus, this releases the pressure on the diaphragm 79 which in turn opens the chamber 70 to the vent 77 and this permits the governor valve to close.
- this system incorporates the advantages of a fluidic control coupled with automatic closure of the governor valve in the event of failure of the pressure required to open the valve.
- the fluid amplifier comprising the chambers and diaphragm in the upper end of the governor valve, is designed to be very sensitive so that the output pressure of the fan is sufficient to cause the governor valve to open, thus eliminating the need for a positive displacement compressor.
