[0023] figure 1 and figure 2 A first embodiment of the rotating electrical machine in the present disclosure is shown. The rotary electric machine 1 is driven by receiving electric power supply and is used in, for example, an electric power steering apparatus to assist a steering operation of a vehicle.

[0024] image 3 A system configuration of a steering system 100 having an electric power steering device 109 is shown. In an electric power steering device 109 , a torque sensor 104 is arranged on a steering shaft 102 and connected to a steering wheel 101 . The torque sensor 104 detects the steering torque input by the driver of the vehicle from the steering wheel 101 into the steering shaft 102 .

[0025] A pinion 106 is arranged on an end of the steering shaft 102 , and the pinion 106 is engaged with a rack shaft 107 . A pair of tires 108 are rotatably connected to both ends of the rack shaft 107 via tie rods or the like.

[0071] Such as Figures 6 to 8 As shown in , in this embodiment, a second bottom cover flange 26 and a first bottom cover flange 25 having a triangular shape are provided. The second bottom cover flange 26 is symmetrical and positioned along the centerline of the bottom cover 20 and on the outer periphery of the bottom cover 20 . In other words, each second bottom cover flange 26 is opposite the other second bottom cover flange 26 along the centerline (ie, located approximately 180° from each other). Accordingly, the first bottom cover flange 25 and the second bottom cover flange 26 are positioned at unequal angular intervals around the circumference of the bottom cover 20 .

Abstract

Provided are a rotary electric machine for driving a driving object and an electric power steering device driven by the rotary electric machine. The rotating electric machine includes a motor case, a stator, a winding, a rotor, a bottom cover, an end cover, an output rod, a bottom cover hole, an end cover hole, and through bolts. The bottom cover has a bottom cover flange formed on the peripheral edge and extending radially outward beyond the outer wall of the motor housing. The end cap has an end cap flange formed on the circumferential edge and extending radially outward beyond the outer wall of the motor housing. A bottom cap hole is formed in the bottom cap flange and an end cap hole axially aligned with the bottom cap hole is formed in the end cap flange. Through bolts secure the bottom cover flange to the end cover flange. Thereby, a compact high-output rotating electrical machine is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to a rotary electric machine and an electric power steering device driven by the rotary electric machine. Background technique [0002] Generally, a rotary electric machine is used as a power assist source for an electric steering device. For example, a rotating electric machine of an electric power steering device described in Japanese Patent No. 4,679,783, a front end cover and a rear end cover respectively covering the front and rear ends of a tubular motor housing are fastened together by two through bolts. [0003] The electric rotating machine is constructed to have a structure including a flange of a front end cover and a flange of a rear end cover fastened together by two through bolts. Therefore, the axial force for tightening each of the two through bolts is greater than that of a similar structure with three or more bolts. Therefore, the through bolt must have a large outer diameter. In addition, t...
