Japanese Patent Publication No. 4-34015

従来の回転ダンパーは、組立時にハウジング内に混入した空気を、トルク発生部分であるローターの抵抗部とハウジングの底面あるいは天井面との間に位置させないように、抵抗部の形状を略小判型としている。
しかし、ローターは双方向へ回転するので、ハウジング内に混入した空気が抵抗部を乗り越えて抵抗部の反対側へ移動する際に異音が発生する。
このハウジング内に混入した空気が抵抗部を乗り越えるときに発生する異音は、ハウジング内に混入した空気が抵抗部へ乗り上げることによって圧縮された後、抵抗部を乗り越えたときに、急激に開放されることに起因する破裂音と考えられる。
なお、この異音は、粘性流体の粘度が高い程発生し易く、また、ローターとハウジングとの間隔が狭い程発生し易くなる。
The conventional rotary damper has a substantially oval shape so that the air mixed in the housing during assembly is not located between the resistance part of the rotor, which is the torque generating part, and the bottom or ceiling surface of the housing. Yes.
However, since the rotor rotates in both directions, abnormal noise is generated when the air mixed in the housing moves over the resistance portion and moves to the opposite side of the resistance portion.
The noise generated when the air mixed in the housing gets over the resistance part is compressed by the air mixed in the housing climbing onto the resistance part, and then suddenly released when the air gets over the resistance part. It is thought that it is a plosive sound caused by that.
This abnormal noise is more likely to be generated as the viscosity of the viscous fluid is higher, and more likely to be generated as the distance between the rotor and the housing is narrower.

この発明は、組立時に、ハウジング内に混入した空気が抵抗部を乗り越えないようにすることにより、ローターが双方向へ回転してもハウジング内に混入した空気に起因する異音の発生を防止することのできる回転ダンパーを提供するものである。   By preventing the air mixed in the housing from getting over the resistance portion at the time of assembly, the present invention prevents the generation of noise caused by the air mixed in the housing even when the rotor rotates in both directions. The present invention provides a rotating damper that can perform the above-described operation.

この発明は、以下のような発明である。
(1)ハウジングと、このハウジング内に収容された粘性流体と、前記ハウジング内に収められ、前記ハウジングから一部が突出する軸部に前記ハウジング内の前記粘性流体中を移動する抵抗部が設けられたローターと、前記軸部と前記ハウジングとの間から前記粘性流体が漏れるのを防止するシール部材と、からなる回転ダンパーにおいて、前記抵抗部を前記軸部から放射状に延出させて複数設け、この抵抗部に回転円周方向へ突出する突出部を設けるとともに、この突出部の先端を、所定の間隔をあけて対向させたことを特徴とする。
(2)(1)の回転ダンパーにおいて、前記突出部と前記ハウジングとの間隔を、前記抵抗部と前記ハウジングとの間隔よりも狭くしたことを特徴とする。
(3)(1)または(2)の回転ダンパーにおいて、前記突出部の先端と前記抵抗部との間隔を、前記対向する突出部の間隔よりも長くしたことを特徴とする。
(4)(1)から(3)のいずれか1つの回転ダンパーにおいて、前記対向する突出部の先端部を、先端方向へ窄まる形状としたことを特徴とする。
The present invention is as follows.
(1) A housing, a viscous fluid accommodated in the housing, and a resistance portion that moves in the viscous fluid in the housing is provided in a shaft portion that is housed in the housing and partially protrudes from the housing. And a plurality of the resistance portions extending radially from the shaft portion in a rotary damper comprising a rotor and a sealing member for preventing the viscous fluid from leaking between the shaft portion and the housing. In addition, the resistance portion is provided with a protruding portion that protrudes in the rotational circumferential direction, and the ends of the protruding portion are opposed to each other with a predetermined interval.
(2) In the rotary damper according to (1), the interval between the protruding portion and the housing is made narrower than the interval between the resistor portion and the housing.
(3) In the rotary damper of (1) or (2), the interval between the tip of the protruding portion and the resistance portion is longer than the interval between the opposing protruding portions.
(4) The rotating damper according to any one of (1) to (3) is characterized in that a tip portion of the opposing protruding portion is shaped to be constricted in the tip direction.

この発明によれば、抵抗部を軸部から放射状に延出させて複数設け、この抵抗部に回転円周方向へ突出する突出部を設けるとともに、この突出部の先端を、所定の間隔をあけて対向させたので、組立時にハウジング内に混入した空気は、抵抗部の回転時に負圧の発生する突出部の後端部分に追従するように移動することにより、抵抗部を乗り越えなくなる。
したがって、ローターが双方向へ回転してもハウジング内に混入した空気に起因する異音の発生を防止することができる。
また、突出部とハウジングとの間隔を、抵抗部とハウジングとの間隔よりも狭くしたので、抵抗部の回転時に、突出部の後端部分に負圧が発生し易くなり、その部分にハウジング内に混入した空気が溜まって突出部に追従して移動する。
したがって、ローターが双方向へ回転してもハウジング内に混入した空気に起因する異音の発生をさらに防止することができる。
また、突出部の先端と抵抗部との間隔を、対向する突出部の間隔よりも長くしたので、ローターの回転が反転するとき、ハウジング内に混入した空気は対向する突出部の一方から他方へ移り易くなる。
したがって、ローターが双方向へ回転してもハウジング内に混入した空気に起因する異音の発生をさらに防止することができる。
また、対向する突出部の先端部を、先端方向へ窄まる形状としたので、抵抗部の反回転時に、前回の抵抗部の回転時に突出部の後端部分に発生した負圧部(抵抗部の反転時の上流側に位置する突出部の上流側)から空気が離れ易くなる。
したがって、ローターが反回転するとき、ハウジング内に混入した空気の移動がスムーズになる。
According to the present invention, a plurality of resistor portions are provided radially extending from the shaft portion, and a protrusion portion protruding in the rotational circumferential direction is provided on the resistor portion, and the tip of the protrusion portion is spaced at a predetermined interval. Therefore, the air mixed in the housing at the time of assembly moves so as to follow the rear end portion of the protruding portion where the negative pressure is generated when the resistance portion rotates, and thus does not get over the resistance portion.
Therefore, even if the rotor rotates in both directions, it is possible to prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air mixed in the housing.
In addition, since the interval between the protruding portion and the housing is made narrower than the interval between the resistance portion and the housing, negative pressure is likely to be generated at the rear end portion of the protruding portion when the resistance portion is rotated, The air mixed in is accumulated and moves following the protrusion.
Therefore, even if the rotor rotates in both directions, it is possible to further prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air mixed in the housing.
In addition, since the distance between the tip of the protrusion and the resistance portion is longer than the distance between the opposing protrusions, when the rotation of the rotor is reversed, the air mixed in the housing moves from one of the opposing protrusions to the other. It becomes easy to move.
Therefore, even if the rotor rotates in both directions, it is possible to further prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air mixed in the housing.
In addition, since the tip of the protruding part that opposes has a shape constricted in the tip direction, the negative pressure part (resistor part) generated at the rear end part of the protrusion part during the previous rotation of the resistor part when the resistor part is rotated backward The air is easily separated from the upstream side of the projecting portion located on the upstream side during reversal.
Therefore, when the rotor rotates counterclockwise, the movement of air mixed in the housing becomes smooth.

上記したキャップ41には、中心に、ローター31の軸部32が貫通する貫通孔42が設けられ、この貫通孔42の下側に、下端まで達するように円筒状に肉抜きされた、Oリング51を収容する拡径段部43が設けられている。
また、被駆動歯車61には、Iカット状の取付孔62が中心に設けられ、この取付孔62の平面部分に、ローター31の軸部32に設けた嵌合溝35に嵌合する嵌合突条63が設けられている。

次に、回転ダンパーDの組立の一例について説明する。
まず、ローター31の軸部32をOリング51に嵌め、窪み33および抵抗部36の部分にシリコーンオイル21を塗布した後、窪み33内へケース11の軸支部16を嵌合させるように、収容部15内へ軸部32の一部および抵抗部36を収容する。
そして、収容部15内へ適量のシリコーンオイル21を注入した後、貫通孔42内へ軸部32を挿入しながらキャップ41を円筒壁部14内に嵌合させ、ケース11の開口をキャップ41で閉塞すると、キャップ41は拡径段部14aに衝合する。
Next, an example of assembly of the rotary damper D will be described.
First, the shaft portion 32 of the rotor 31 is fitted into the O-ring 51, the silicone oil 21 is applied to the recess 33 and the resistance portion 36, and then the shaft support portion 16 of the case 11 is fitted into the recess 33. A part of the shaft portion 32 and the resistance portion 36 are accommodated in the portion 15.
Then, after injecting an appropriate amount of silicone oil 21 into the accommodating portion 15, the cap 41 is fitted into the cylindrical wall portion 14 while inserting the shaft portion 32 into the through hole 42, and the opening of the case 11 is opened with the cap 41. When closed, the cap 41 abuts the enlarged diameter step portion 14a.

このようにしてキャップ41を拡径段部14aに衝合させると、円筒壁部14内の空気Aはほとんどケース11外へ排出され、円筒壁部14とキャップ41とは密着するとともに、拡径段部43内にOリング51が収容され、Oリング51が軸部32とキャップ41との間からシリコーンオイル21が漏れるのを防止する。
次に、円筒壁部14とキャップ41との間を、例えば、高周波ウェルダホーンで周回するように溶着して密閉する。
そして、キャップ41から突出した軸部32を被駆動歯車61の取付孔62内へ圧入させると、嵌合突条63が嵌合溝35に嵌合することにより、回転ダンパーDの組立が終了する。
When the cap 41 is brought into contact with the enlarged diameter step portion 14a in this manner, the air A in the cylindrical wall portion 14 is almost discharged outside the case 11, the cylindrical wall portion 14 and the cap 41 are in close contact with each other, and the enlarged diameter is obtained. The O-ring 51 is accommodated in the stepped portion 43, and the O-ring 51 prevents the silicone oil 21 from leaking between the shaft portion 32 and the cap 41.
Next, the cylindrical wall portion 14 and the cap 41 are sealed by welding, for example, so as to circulate with a high-frequency welder horn.
Then, when the shaft portion 32 protruding from the cap 41 is press-fitted into the mounting hole 62 of the driven gear 61, the fitting protrusion 63 is fitted into the fitting groove 35, whereby the assembly of the rotary damper D is completed. .

次に、動作について説明する。
まず、図3に実線で示すように、ローター31が時計方向へ回転すると、シリコーンオイル21中で抵抗部36が時計方向へ回転し、抵抗部36にシリコーンオイル21の粘性抵抗およびせん断抵抗が作用するので、ローター31の回転を制動する。
したがって、ローター31に取り付けられた被駆動歯車61が噛み合う歯車、ラックなどの回転または移動を制動してその回転または移動をゆっくりとさせる。
このようにローター31が時計方向へ回転するとき、抵抗部36に突出部37が回転円周方向へ突出させて設けられているので、組立時にケース11内に空気Aが混入しても、混入した空気Aは、図3に実線で示すように、抵抗部36の回転時に負圧の発生する突出部37の後端部分に追従するように移動する。
Next, the operation will be described.
First, as shown by a solid line in FIG. 3, when the rotor 31 rotates clockwise, the resistance portion 36 rotates clockwise in the silicone oil 21, and the viscous resistance and shear resistance of the silicone oil 21 act on the resistance portion 36. Therefore, the rotation of the rotor 31 is braked.
Therefore, the rotation or movement of the gear, rack, or the like with which the driven gear 61 attached to the rotor 31 meshes is braked so that the rotation or movement is slow.
Thus, when the rotor 31 rotates in the clockwise direction, the protruding portion 37 is provided in the resistance portion 36 so as to protrude in the circumferential direction of the rotation. As shown by the solid line in FIG. 3, the air A thus moved moves so as to follow the rear end portion of the projecting portion 37 where a negative pressure is generated when the resistance portion 36 rotates.

そして、図3に点線で示すように、ローター31が反時計方向へ回転すると、シリコーンオイル21中で抵抗部36が反時計方向へ回転し、抵抗部36にシリコーンオイル21の粘性抵抗およびせん断抵抗が作用するので、ローター31の回転を制動する。
したがって、ローター31に取り付けられた被駆動歯車61が噛み合う歯車、ラックなどの回転または移動を制動してその回転または移動をゆっくりとさせる。
このようにローター31が反時計方向へ回転するとき、抵抗部36に突出部37が回転円周方向へ突出させて設けられ、間隔cが間隔dよりも長くされているので、組立時にケース11内に混入した空気Aは、図3に点線で示すように、抵抗部36側へ向かわずに、抵抗部36の回転時に負圧の発生する突出部37の後端部分に追従するように移動する。
3, when the rotor 31 rotates counterclockwise, the resistance portion 36 rotates counterclockwise in the silicone oil 21, and the viscous resistance and shear resistance of the silicone oil 21 are applied to the resistance portion 36. Acts to brake the rotation of the rotor 31.
Therefore, the rotation or movement of the gear, rack, or the like with which the driven gear 61 attached to the rotor 31 meshes is braked so that the rotation or movement is slow.
Thus, when the rotor 31 rotates in the counterclockwise direction, the protrusion 37 is provided in the resistance portion 36 so as to protrude in the rotation circumferential direction, and the interval c is longer than the interval d. As shown by the dotted line in FIG. 3, the air A mixed in does not move toward the resistance portion 36, but moves so as to follow the rear end portion of the protrusion 37 where negative pressure is generated when the resistance portion 36 rotates. To do.

上述したように、この発明の第1実施例によれば、抵抗部36を軸部32から放射状に延出させて2つ設け、この抵抗部36に回転円周方向へ突出する突出部37を設けるとともに、突出部37の先端を、所定の間隔をあけて対向させたので、組立時にケース11内に混入した空気Aは、抵抗部36の回転時に負圧の発生する突出部37の後端部分に追従するように移動することにより、抵抗部36を乗り越えなくなる。
したがって、ローター31が双方向へ回転してもケース11内に混入した空気Aに起因する異音の発生を防止することができる。
また、突出部37とケース11あるいはキャップ41との間隔aを、抵抗部36とケース11あるいはキャップ41との間隔bよりも狭くしたので、抵抗部36の回転時に、突出部37の後端部分に負圧が発生し易くなり、その部分にケース11内に混入した空気Aが溜まって突出部37に追従して移動する。
したがって、ローター31が双方向へ回転してもケース11内に混入した空気Aに起因する異音の発生をさらに防止することができる。
また、突出部37の先端と抵抗部36との間隔cを、対向する突出部37の間隔dよりも長くしたので、ローター31の回転が反転するとき、ケース11内に混入した空気Aは対向する突出部37の一方から他方へ移り易くなる。
したがって、ローター31が双方向へ回転してもケース11内に混入した空気Aに起因する異音の発生をさらに防止することができる。
そして、対向する突出部37の先端部を、先端方向へ窄まる形状としたので、抵抗部36の反回転時に、前回の抵抗部36の回転時に突出部37の後端部分に発生した負圧部(抵抗部36の反転時の上流側に位置する突出部37の上流側)から空気が離れ易くなる。
したがって、ローター31が反回転するとき、ケース11内に混入した空気Aの移動がスムーズになる。
As described above, according to the first embodiment of the present invention, two resistance portions 36 are provided so as to extend radially from the shaft portion 32, and the protrusion portion 37 protruding in the rotation circumferential direction is provided on the resistance portion 36. Since the front end of the projecting portion 37 is opposed with a predetermined interval, the air A mixed in the case 11 during assembly is the rear end of the projecting portion 37 that generates a negative pressure when the resistance portion 36 rotates. By moving so as to follow the portion, the resistor portion 36 is not overcome.
Therefore, even if the rotor 31 rotates in both directions, it is possible to prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air A mixed in the case 11.
Further, since the distance a between the protruding portion 37 and the case 11 or the cap 41 is narrower than the distance b between the resistance portion 36 and the case 11 or the cap 41, the rear end portion of the protruding portion 37 is rotated when the resistance portion 36 rotates. A negative pressure is likely to be generated in the air, and the air A mixed in the case 11 accumulates in that portion and moves following the protruding portion 37.
Therefore, even if the rotor 31 rotates in both directions, it is possible to further prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air A mixed in the case 11.
Further, since the distance c between the tip of the projecting portion 37 and the resistance portion 36 is longer than the distance d between the projecting portions 37 facing each other, the air A mixed in the case 11 is opposed when the rotation of the rotor 31 is reversed. It becomes easy to move from one side of the protruding portion 37 to the other side.
Therefore, even if the rotor 31 rotates in both directions, it is possible to further prevent the generation of abnormal noise due to the air A mixed in the case 11.
And since the front-end | tip part of the protrusion part 37 which opposes was made into the shape constricted to a front-end | tip direction, the negative pressure which generate | occur | produced in the rear-end part of the protrusion part 37 at the time of the last rotation of the resistance part 36 at the time of reverse rotation of the resistance part 36 The air is easily separated from the portion (upstream side of the protruding portion 37 located on the upstream side when the resistance portion 36 is reversed).
Therefore, when the rotor 31 rotates counterclockwise, the movement of the air A mixed in the case 11 becomes smooth.
