Electric machine and method for manufacturing an electric machine

The invention relates to an electrical machine, in particular an electrical machine such as a generator or a motor, with a pole such as a salient pole or a claw pole, for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy, according to the preamble of claim 1. In addition, the invention relates to a method for Manufacture of a vortex current loss reduced electrical machine for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy, in particular for reducing eddy currents on a pole surface of an electric machine such as a generator or a motor, with at least one pole such as a salient pole or a claw pole, during operation of the electric machine after

The preamble of claim 10.

State of the art

The invention is based on an electrical machine for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy or reversibly designed for the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy according to the preamble of the independent claims.

The present invention relates to electrical machines, in particular motors and generators with massive salient poles, for example claw pole generators, for the DC voltage supply of vehicle electrical systems in motor vehicles. From the prior art generators for converting mechanical energy into electrical energy in the motor vehicle are known. Common is the use of generators, which are equipped with an electrical excitation. These generators generate alternating currents, which are converted by a rectifier into direct current in order to convert this current into direct current DC systems

To use motor vehicles. In motor vehicles, especially AC generators in the form of claw pole generators are used to generate energy. Their runner comprises at least one rotor shaft, two claw poles, a pole core and a field winding. The complete pole core or parts of the pole core can be attached to one of the two claw poles or z. B. each half be formed on both claw poles, so that the pole core is not an independent component. Upon rotation of the rotor shaft or the rotor, this rotates relative to a stator. The runner is guided on both sides by means of end shields in roller bearings. If a direct current flows through a field winding in the rotor, a magnetic field is created. As the rotor rotates, the magnetic field in the stator windings induces a

AC voltage. The pole core and the two claw poles are pressed onto the rotor shaft in the prior art. For this purpose, the claw poles and the pole core must be pierced in the middle. In such Klauenpolgeneratoren occur eddy current losses, which should be avoided. In these electrical machines, grooves of a stator core form flow fluctuations in the stator

Air gap between stand and runner off. These flux variations cause eddy currents on the rotor surface of claw-pole machines, more precisely on the outer claw-pole surfaces facing the stator, which contribute to losses and thus to heating of the rotor. Particularly with a small working air gap and high rotational speeds, as occur with claw pole generators, these eddy currents lead to significant losses and reduction of the efficiency. The claw poles of motor vehicle generators are usually made of solid soft magnetic steel, which also has a high electrical conductivity, so that the eddy currents can form well. Since the centrifugal forces at high speeds require a high mechanical strength of the claw pole, the claw pole can not be optimally manufactured from a eddy current resistant material.

It is generally known in claw pole generators or Lundellgeneratoren the formation of grooves in the surface of the claw poles, the forming of

Hinder eddy currents, but also increase the mean air gap and thus reducing the engine power in the lower speed range. Further known are coatings of the claw poles, more precisely coatings of the finger surface facing the stator, with a material which conducts the magnetic flux well but has a poor electrical conductivity. However, the adhesion of the coating at high speeds is limited.

From JP 05056615 a Klauenpolgenerator with claw poles is known, in whose pointing to a stator surface, a groove is provided. In the groove, a material with a low electrical resistance, ie, a high or good electrical conductivity, such as copper or aluminum is arranged to form a closed circuit at the claw pole. The conductivity of copper is at a temperature of about 300 K at about> = 58.0 MS / m. The conductivity of aluminum at about 300 K is about 36.59 MS / m. For copper, a permeability index as an index for magnetic conductivity is just below 1 (1-6.4 × 10 ^-6 ) and for aluminum just above 1 (1 + 2.2 × 10 ^-5 ).

It is in the materials thus in the magnetically poor and electrically good conductive materials.

From US 5,903,084 a Klauenpolgenerator with claw poles is also known, in whose pointing to a stator surface, a groove is provided.

In the grooves, an electrical conductor is arranged across poles, which consists of a non-magnetic material, ie a magnetic material having a permeability in the range of 1 (vacuum, neutral). Other such electrical machines are u.a. also from EP 2157679 AI, US

By avoiding air gaps despite existing grooves advantageously the formation of eddy current losses is reduced, so that further advantageously the performance of the electric machine is largely maintained. Among other things, a material conducts worse than another material if it has a lower electrical conductivity than the other material. The electric machine according to the invention is designed in an embodiment for a generator operation as a generator, for a motor operation as a motor and for both modes. So not only mechanical energy can be converted into electrical energy, but also electrical energy can be converted into mechanical energy. The pole with the surface facing the stator bore is formed in an embodiment in the manner of a Polfingers. Preferably, more than one depression is provided in the surface.

The pole material used for the production of the poles - iron material - preferably has an electrical conductivity in the range of 10 MS / m. The recesses have at least one opening on the surface. In another embodiment, the wells are as

Through opening, that is formed as a recess with a plurality of openings. The cross section of a depression is constant in one embodiment over the extent thereof. In another embodiment, the cross section of a depression over its extension is variable, for example, continuously varying and / or stepwise varying.

In one embodiment, the rotor of the electric machine comprises at least two poles, for example two salient poles or two claw poles, a pole core and the rotor shaft. In this case, the rotor is preferably arranged in a stator bore, so that an inner side of the stator bore faces an outer surface of the poles or is adjacent thereto. The two poles are called in one embodiment as salient pole and Gegenschenkelpol, short Gegenpol. In one embodiment, the salient poles are formed as claw poles. The pole core is surrounded by the two poles. In one embodiment, the pole and the opposite pole have a plurality of Polfingern, for example, six, seven, eight or nine Polfinger, for example Klauenpolfinger on. The number of Polfinger is preferably formed the same at the pole and at the opposite pole.

In one embodiment, the pole core is formed integrated in one of the two poles, that is, the pole core and a pole are made in one piece. This

In one embodiment, it is provided that the depression is formed as a depression having at least one undercut in order to fix the filling material arranged in the depression. The recess has an opening that opens radially outward, that is, in a radial direction to a surrounding stator. Since the rotor rotates about the axis of rotation, even at high speeds, a centrifugal force acts on a filling material arranged in the recess, which thereby tends to move out of the recess. Due to at least one undercut in the recess, in which the filling material is at least partially disposed, a radially outwardly directed movement is counteracted. The undercut can be formed in any way. In one embodiment, a dovetail-shaped undercut is provided. In other embodiments, protrusions and / or projections provided transversely to an extension direction of the depression are provided.

Another embodiment of the present invention provides that the filler material is flush with the edge of the depression at maximum, so as to ensure a projection-free surface. That is, the filling does not protrude from the depression towards the surface over the depression and thus the surface.

Accordingly, it is provided in a further embodiment that the filler is formed as a powder material, in particular a pressed powder material and / or as a material in the recess at least partially plastically deformable material. A powder material, which is formed, for example, as a powder mixture or a powder composite material, can be easily filled into any recess. After filling the powder material can be pressed by pressing in the depression with this. Thus, as a filler in the

Deepening pressed powder material realized. Especially with depressions which have an undercut, powder materials are advantageous. As a mixture, in a powder material, the required properties - magnetic conductor and electrical non-conductor - can be easily adjusted by means of appropriate mixtures, inclusions, dopings or the like.

In one embodiment, this comprises not only ferromagnetic portions but also adhesive portions and / or magnetic conductive portions.

In addition, in one embodiment it is provided that the distances, the shape and / or the depth of a plurality of recesses varies over the surface per pole. In a

Embodiment, all wells are the same design, that is, with substantially the same shape, the same depth, the same cross-section, the same capacity, etc. In another embodiment, the wells have a different length, that is, a transverse and / or longitudinal course along the surface. In other embodiments, the depth of the recesses is different. In still other embodiments, the cross sections of the recesses are different. Furthermore, an embodiment provides that the indentation is designed as at least one groove, in particular as at least one groove extending transversely to an axial direction of the electric machine, in particular as a plurality of parallel grooves and or as spiral-shaped groove sections. The groove sections can be milled and / or rotated, for example, into the surface. By means of rotation, spiral sections can preferably be formed. The groove preferably extends over an entire width of the surface, that is in a direction in the circumferential direction. The groove or groove sections are formed in one embodiment transversely to a circumferential direction and / or an axial or longitudinal direction. In another embodiment, the grooves extend in the longitudinal direction. In yet other embodiments, the directions of extension of the grooves are formed in different directions. In this way, for example, grid-like arranged Nutverläufe can be realized. A cross section of a groove is for example approximately rectangular, oval, U-shaped or similar. Preferably, a cross section is formed with an undercut.

Last but not least, in one embodiment it is provided that the depression is filled with at least 70% by volume, more preferably at least 80% by volume, and most preferably at least 90% by volume, with the filling material. Preferably, the well is filled to 100% by volume. In other embodiments, air pockets are provided. One embodiment provides that the filling material at least partially contacts a depression bottom or recess bottom.

Description of the embodiment

FIG. 1 shows, in a cross-sectional view, an electrical machine 10 designed as a claw-pole generator, more particularly a cross-section through an electrical machine 10, which in the embodiment shown here

Claw pole generator for motor vehicles is designed for the conversion of mechanical energy into electrical energy. The electric machine 10 has a two-part housing 13 which comprises a first end shield 13.1 and a second end shield 13.2. The end shields 13.1 and 13.2 take in a so-called stator 16, which consists of a substantially annular

Ständerereisen 17 consists, and in the radially inwardly directed, axially extending grooves a (outstanding) stator windings 18 are inserted or retracted. This annular stator 16 surrounds with its radially inwardly directed, grooved surface, a rotor or rotor 20 which is formed as a claw-pole rotor (not shown in detail here). The rotor 20 comprises a pole 22 formed as a claw pole and a counter pole 23 (see also FIG. 2), which are also referred to as pole plates, here claw pole plates, on the outer circumference of which each extend in the axial direction pole fingers 24 and 25 (here claw pole fingers, also referred to as poles) are arranged (see also Figure 2). In the assembled state of the claw pole 22 and the opposite pole 23 are pressed against each other, so that their extending in the axial direction (claw) Polfinger 24 and 25 arranged alternately on the circumference of the rotor 20 are. This results in magnetically required spaces between the oppositely magnetized (claw) Polfingern 24 and 25, which are referred to as (claw) Polzwischenräume. The (claw) pole fingers have a radially outer surface 100 facing a stator inner side. In this surface 100 recesses 110 are provided, which are described in more detail with respect to the other figures. The rotor 20 is rotatably supported in the respective end shields 13.1 and 13.2, respectively, by means of a rotor shaft 27 and one respective rolling bearing 28 located on each side of the rotor shaft.

The rotor 20 has two axial end faces, on each of which a fan 30 is attached. This fan 30 consists essentially of a plate-shaped or disc-shaped portion, emanating from the fan blades. The fan 30 serves to allow an air exchange between the outside of the electric machine 10 and the interior of the electric machine 10 to realize air cooling via openings 40 in the end shields 13.1 and 13.2. For this purpose, the openings 40 are provided essentially at the axial ends of the end shields 13.1 and 13.2, via which cooling air is sucked into the interior of the electric machine 10 by means of the fan 30. This cooling air is accelerated by the rotation of the fan 30 radially outward, so that they can pass through a cool air-permeable winding overhang 45. By this effect, the winding overhang 45 is additionally cooled. The cooling air passes after passing through the winding overhang 45 or after flowing around the winding overhang 45 in the radial direction through the openings to the outside.

On the right side in Figure 1, a protective cap 47 is shown, which protects various components of the rotor 20 from environmental influences and dirt. In this case, the protective flap 47 covers a so-called slip ring assembly 49, which serves to supply a field winding 51 with exciting current. Around this slip ring assembly 49 around a heat sink 53 is arranged, which acts as a positive heat sink here. As a so-called minus heat sink, the bearing plate acts 13.2. Between the bearing plate 13.2 and the heat sink 53, a connection plate 56 is arranged, which serves to connect arranged in the bearing plate 13.2 minus diodes 58 and not shown here plus diodes in the heat sink 53 with each other and thus represent a known bridge circuit. A bobbin 60 is disposed radially outside of a pole core 63. The bobbin 60 has the task to isolate the exciter winding 51 both with respect to the (claw) pole plates 22 and 23 and on the other hand in the context of prefabrication as a shaping element, especially after the winding process with respect to the exciter winding wire is completed. The bobbin 60 is thereby pushed with two connecting conductors 66 axially over the pole core 63 and subsequently fixed axially between the two (claw) pole plates 22 and 23.

In addition, the (claw) Polfinger 24 and 25 engage over the exciter winding 51 and thus form radially outwardly a kind of cage, which is an impermissible radial

Displacement of the exciter winding 51 prevented. The pole core 63 can also be axially divided into two sections, which are formed on the (claw) Polplatinen 22 and 23. A pole core length is calculated from the sum of the individual sections of the pole cores.

2 shows in a cross-sectional view a part of the claw pole generator with rotor 20 and (claw) poles 22, 23. Essentially, the embodiment of FIG. 2 corresponds to the embodiment of FIG. 1 already described. A renewed description of already described components is therefore dispensed with , The same components are identified by the same reference numerals. The cutout of the electric

Machine 10 essentially shows the rotor 20 with the rotor shaft 27. The rotor shaft 27 is made in one piece. The rotor shaft 27 has a round cross-section. It extends in the axial direction A of the rotor 20. In the assembled state of the rotor 20 shown here, the (claw) pole 22 and the opposite pole 23 are rotatably connected by pressing on the rotor shaft 27 with this. The (claw) Polfinger 24 and 25 have the radially outer, to the stator 16 (see Fig. 1) facing surface 100 on. This has in the circumferential direction, ie along the surface 100, a constant radial distance to the axis of rotation A of the rotor 20. In the surface 100, radially inwardly extending recesses 110 are arranged. These are according to

Fig. 2 designed as grooves or grooves 111. These have a constant, here rectangular, cross-section 112 in the circumferential direction. In the recesses 110, a filling material 120 is provided. The filler material 120 functions as an electrical nonconductor and magnetic conductor to prevent and / or reduce the formation of eddy currents, particularly at the surface 100. For this purpose, the filling material 120 terminates flush with an edge of the depression 110, so as to ensure a projection-free surface 100. The construction of the Recesses 110 and the filling material 120 will be described in more detail below.

FIG. 3 shows, in a cross-sectional view, a (claw) pole 22 with (claw) pole fingers 24. The depressions 110 are introduced into the surface 100. In the

Wells 110, the filler 120 is arranged. Here, the same filling material 120 is provided in each recess 110. In other embodiments, different fillers 120 are provided for different wells 110. The depressions 110 are formed as depressions 110 each having an undercut 113, more precisely each as a groove 111 having an undercut 113. The grooves 111 are completely filled with the filling material 120. The filler 120 is here as a filler 120 having an electrical conductivity of less than or equal to 5 MS / m, preferably less than or equal to 3 MS / m, and most preferably less than 1 MS / m and a magnetic conductivity expressed in a permeability number of about greater than or equal to 100, more preferably greater than or equal to 300, and most preferably greater than or equal to 500. More specifically, the filler 120 is formed as a powder composite having a permeability of greater than 600. The filling material 120 is on the one hand by pressing u. a. fixed in the undercut in the recess 110. On the other hand, an adhesive is provided, as in

Shown below.

FIG. 4 shows in cross-sectional views various cross-sections 112 of a depression 110 in the surface 100 of a (claw) pole (finger) 22 (24). FIG. 4 a shows a groove 111 with a rectangular cross-section 112

Deepening 110. The filling material 120 is fixed in the groove 111 via an adhesive 130 formed as an adhesion layer 131. The filling material 120 terminates flush with the surface 100, so that a projection-free surface 100 is realized. 4b shows another cross section 112. The cross section 112 shown in FIG. 4b is approximately barrel-shaped. The

Filling material 120 is here not completely formed to an edge of the recess 110 or the surface 100. 4c shows a depression 110 with an undercut 113. The illustrated depression 110 is designed as a dovetail groove. As in FIG. 4b, the filling material 120 is not filled up to an upper edge of the depression 110 or the surface. FIG. 4 d shows a cross section 112, which is approximately cross-shaped and therefore also has an undercut 113. However, the undercut 113 is not disposed adjacent to a bottom of the groove 111, but spaced therefrom. The filling material 120 is spaced is arranged to the upper edge or the surface 100 and the bottom of the groove 111, so that adjacent to the bottom or the surface 100 depending on a free space 115 is realized. The cross sections 112 of FIG. 4a to 4d are mirror-symmetrical. FIGS. 4e and 4f show mirror-asymmetrical cross-sections 112. FIG. 4e shows a modified, cross-shaped cross-section 112. The undercut 113 has different transverse extensions. A width of an upper recess portion is different from a width of the lower recess portion. The recessed portions are separated by the undercut 113. In Fig. 4f, the undercut 113 is formed on one side only. From an otherwise rectangular cross section 112 of the undercut 113 protrudes like a groove in one direction. The cross sections 112 illustrated here represent only a portion of a plurality of conceivable cross sections 112 by way of example.

FIG. 5 shows a plan view of various recesses 110 on a surface 100 of a (claw) pole finger 24. In FIG. 5a, recesses 110 formed as grooves 111 extend parallel and equidistant from one another over the entire width of the surface 100. The (claws -) Polfinger 24 is tapered. Thus, the groove 111 closest to a claw-pole tip has a shorter length than the grooves 111 further away. The grooves 111 are completely filled with the filling material 120, which terminates flush with all openings of the respective groove 111 with the corresponding surface 100. The course of the grooves 111 in Fig. 5b, in contrast to those in Fig. 5a is not linearly unbent, but runs in a slight curvature. In addition, the distance between the grooves 111 is not constant, but varies. In Fig. 5c, the recesses 110 are not formed as grooves 111, but in the manner of blind holes. These have different cross sections 112 - circular, rectangular - on. In this case, the cross sections 112 do not change in the radial direction, but are formed constant. In other embodiments, in the radial direction, that is to say from the surface 100 to the axis of rotation A, the cross sections are changed so that, for example, a conical depression is realized. The arrangement of the recesses 110 on the surface 100 is arbitrary. The spacings of the recesses 110 relative to each other varies along a surface plane from the recess 110 to the recess 110. In FIG. 5 d, a recessed arrangement is provided, which runs approximately helically, like a record groove. Accordingly, a plurality of spiral groove sections purple or spiral sections are provided. Again, the illustrated embodiments represent an example only a section of any number of selectable embodiments.
