  • Kruszynski 1 ELECTRIC DRIVING APPARATUS Inventor: Stanislaw Kruszynski, Lutry, Switzerland [73] Assignee: Bolex International SA, Saint-Croix,
  • ABSTRACT An electric motor drive having a rotor that is brought to a stop in a predetermined angular position whenever the mechanism ceases to move.
  • the motor includes a segment type commutator as well as a slip ring and means of applying a blocking voltage to the slip ring to produce a rotor induced magnetic field of fixed orientation in relation to the rotor. Means are also provided to control application of stopping current only when the rotor is in a stable stopping position.
  • the present invention relates to an electric driving apparatus and more particularly to a motor the rotor of 5 which can be stopped in a predetermined angular position.
  • the present invention overcomes these problems by providing the electrical drive motor with a segment type commutator and a slip ring and also a means of applying a blocking voltage (when the movement ceases) through the slip ring current collector to produce a rotor induced magnetic field constantly orientated in relation to the rotor. This magnetic field cooperates with the permanent magnetic field to stop the rotor in a predetermined position.
  • FIG. 1 shows the electrical lay-out of the driving mechanism of the motor.
  • FIG. 2 to 6 represent the electric signals read at various points on the circuit shown in FIG. 1.
  • motor M comprises two permanent magnetic poles N and S.
  • the motor also comprises a commutator 10 for the supply of current to the rotor by way of the brushes 1! and 12.
  • brush 1 l is connected to the pole as of a power supply by a switch 8,, of which a second pole 8,, controls the stepping up of voltage of standard and known electronic device 13 controlling the supply voltage proportionally to the desired speed of rotation of the motor.
  • This device is connected between the brush l2 and the terminal b of the power supply.
  • Two segments 14 and 15 of the commutator 10 are connected respectively to two slip rings x and y which have been depicted outside the motor in order to simplify the drawing, but which physically are mounted on the shaft of the motor.
  • the ring x is connected by a brush 16 to the collector of a transistor T while the ring y is connected by a brush 17 to the collector of a transistor T
  • the rings A: and y are connected respectively to the terminals b and a of the power supply; thus a current goes thorugh the rotor which gives it a transversal magnetisation stationary in relation to the rotor itself.
  • the motor Under the influence of this magnetisation, the motor always stops in a predetermined angular position in which the magnetic north and south poles of the rotor are opposite the south and north poles of the stator. If, when the current is applied to to the rings x and y, the rotor is in a position other than the predetermined stopping position, it is brought to this position by mangetisation unless it happens to be exactly in the unstable position of equilibrium in which the north and south poles of the rotor are opposite the north and south poles respectively of the stator.
  • a circuit comprising the transistors T,, T T 'Ij controls the two transistors T and T which are turned on simultaneously for a predetermined length of time provided that the angular position of the rotor enables such turn on at that instant as described below.
  • the control of the transistors T and T is carried out by a charging current from condenser C, which is connected between the resistance R, of the device 13 and the base of the transistor T,.
  • the terminal of the condenser C, which is connected to the resistance R, is connected to the contact stud 2 of the switch S
  • the charging current of the condenser C causes current to flow in the transistor T, which turns on the transistors T and T on the one hand and the transistors T T and T on the other.
  • the conduction of the transistor T cannot be achieved unless a voltage negative in relation to its threshold level is applied to its base by means of the diode D connected between its base and the brush 17.
  • the operation of the drive motor is illustrated by the curves in FIG. 2 to 6 in which the supply to the motor M is represented between the interrupted lines A and B. This interval is preceded by an interruption in the flow of current of an unlimited length of time which is represented on' the left of line A and it is followed by another period without current which is represented on the right of line B.
  • FIG. 5 shows the voltage at the terminals of the resistance R,. After a sufficient interruption the voltage at the terminals of the condenser C, is equal to that of the supply.
  • the switch S S is on the condenser C discharges through the diode D,. This produces a peak in the current (see FIG. 6) during which the transistor base T, reaches a positive potential in relation to its emitter. The transistor T, is therefore turned off and in consequenceall the transistors T to T remain nonconductive.
  • the switch S,,, S is ofF the supply voltage is again applied to the condensers C, through the resistance R, and the transistor T, and the condenser C, is recharged.
  • the charging current activates the transistor T, which intum in turn a voltage to the basesof the transistors T to T thus activating them.
  • the transistors T T and T 4 are activated simultaneously with the transistor T,.
  • the voltage at the base of the transistor T is determined not only by the current from the collector of the transistor T,, but also by the voltage of the slip ring y which when negative forward biases and is applied through D,,.
  • the voltage of the slip rings 1: and y are represented by the curves in FIGS. 2 and 3, respectively.
  • these two voltages vary in an appreciably sinusoidal manner between the terminals, a and b, respectively of the supply.
  • the transistor T is turned on and it can be seen that the voltage of slip ring x then becomes equal to the potential of the terminal b.
  • FIG. 3 shows the voltage which would be collected on the slip ring y if the brush 17 were no longer conv alone?c ..?r...
  • the base of the transistor T is no longer affected by the voltage in slip ring y, and the transistor T is turned on by the current flowing from the transistor T
  • the current from the transistor T activates the transistor T so that the potential terminal a of the supply is applied to the slip ring y. Accordingly, it is possible to bring the motor to rest in a predetermined stable position by controlling the application of the blocking volt- It should be noted that because the negative voltage occurring in slip ring y is applied to the base of the transistor T through the diode D the blocking current transmitted to the slip rings x and y cannot flow when the rotor is in the vicinity of its unstable stopping position mentioned above.
  • the slip rings x and y may not be connected to the segments 14 and 15 of the commutator 10, but instead are connected to an independant supplementary winding on the rotor intended only for stopping the rotor.
  • the unstable stopping position of the rotor could be detected by other means than by the occurrence of a voltage on a collector.
  • a contact may be operated by a fixed cam on the motor shaft which would in turn operate the contact at each rotation thus preventing the application of the blocking current at least in coincidence with a given angular position of the rotor. In certain cases it might be unnecessary to provide a means of preventing the application of the blocking current if the unstable stopping position were governed'by the .nqhanism. .dt Ysq 12y, 395m What is claimed is:
  • An ei'irie "rfldtbrapp'a'raius'iiiviig (a) a stator, (b) a rotor mounted for operative rotation relative to said stator, (c) means for supplying current to drive the rotor relative to said stator, (d) a segment type commutator coupled to the rotor, (e) slip ring means coupled to the rotor, (f) blocking means operable upon interruption of the motor driving current for applying a blocking voltage to the slip ring means to thereby stop said rotor at a predetermined angular positionrelative to said stator, and (g) control means sensitive to at least one angular position of the rotor relative to the stator for controlling the application of the blocking voltage in predetermined relation to said at least one angular position.
  • control means includes semiconductor means for continuously sensing the voltage in the slip ring means, said voltage in the slip ring means being representative of the angular position of the rotor, and said semiconductor means controlling the application of blocking voltage such that the application is prevented when the slip ring voltage is within certain predetermined values.
