[0049] 21 Flat seal DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0050] As shown, the electric machine has a stator housing 5 which is connected to a bearing flange 6 on one side and to an end shield 1 on the other side.
[0051] The end cover 1 is spaced apart from the bearing flange 6 and receives a bearing for rotatably supporting the rotor shaft. The bearing flange 6 receives a further bearing for rotatably supporting the rotor shaft.
[0052] Long bolts connect the end cover 1 and the bearing flange 6 to the stator housing 5 .
[0053] Therefore, the corresponding long bolt passes through the notch of the end cover 1 and through the notch of the bearing flange 6. The bolt head of the long bolt is pressed onto the end cover 1 via the sealing ring 20 mounted on the long bolt, wherein the nut screwed onto the threaded area of the long bolt is pressed onto the bearing flange 6. Therefore, both the bearing flange 6 and the end cover 1 are pressed onto the stator housing 5.
[0054] The sealing ring 20 ensures the safety and sealing of the connection between the long bolts and the bearing flange 6 .
[0055] Hence the long bolts that hold the motor together.
[0056] The electric motor also has an electromagnetically actuatable brake which has a ferromagnetic body 2 which is connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the end cap 1 by means of a threaded rod 3 which passes through the magnet 2 .
[0057] The spindle 3 protrudes from the magnet 2 so that the second brake can be mounted axially next to the aforementioned first brake, thereby achieving increased operational safety.
[0058] The magnet has an annular recess, the ring axis of which is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotor shaft of the motor. A coil that can be energized is accommodated in the annular recess.
[0059] An annular driver with external toothing is placed onto the rotor shaft and is connected to the rotor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner, in particular by means of a key connection.
[0060] The annular disc-shaped brake pad carrier is placed on the driver and its internal toothing meshes with the external toothing of the driver so that the brake pad carrier is connected to the driver and thus to the rotor shaft in a rotationally fixed manner and is arranged in an axially movable manner.
[0061] Brake pads are arranged on both axial sides of the brake pad carrier.
[0062] The ferromagnetic armature plate is axially arranged between the brake plate carrier and the magnet and is connected to the magnet in a non-rotatable manner.
[0063] In addition, the armature piece is arranged in an axially movable manner. In particular, the pin passes through the opening of the armature piece and is inserted into the recess or bore of the magnet.
[0064] A braking surface is formed on the end cover 1 .
[0065] A spring element supported on the magnet presses onto the armature plate.
[0066] Therefore, when the coil is energized, the armature plate is attracted to the magnet 2 against the spring force generated by the spring element. However, when the coil is not energized, the armature plate is pressed toward the brake pad carrier by the spring element, so that the brake pad carrier is pressed onto the brake surface formed on the end cover 1, which is arranged on the side of the brake pad carrier facing away from the armature plate.
[0067] Thus, the brake is released when the coil is energized and engaged when the coil is not energized.
[0068] The cover 4 is fixed on the end cover 1, wherein a flat seal 21 is arranged between the cover 4 and the end cover 1 to ensure a sealed connection between the cover 4 and the end cover 1. The end cover 1 is also a component forming a housing of the motor.
[0069] The long bolts are arranged radially within the radial range covered by the cover 4 .
[0070] The screw 3 is arranged radially within a radial range covered by the cover 4 .
[0071] The pins are arranged radially within the radial range covered by the cover 4 .
[0072] The axial direction is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotor shaft, and the radial direction, the circumferential direction and the radial distance are each based on the rotation axis of the rotor shaft of the electric machine.
[0073] The area covered by the brake pad carrier in the axial direction is arranged within the area covered by the cover 4 in the axial direction.
[0074] The area covered by the magnet 2 in the axial direction is arranged within the area covered by the cover 4 in the axial direction.
[0075] The region covered by the armature plate in the axial direction is arranged within the region covered by the cover 4 in the axial direction.
[0076] The radial range covered by the magnet 2 , the armature plate and the brake plate carrier is included in the radial range covered by the cover 4 .
[0077] The cover 4 thus surrounds the brake, wherein the interior space which includes the brake and is surrounded by the cover 4 is sealed by means of the flat seal 21 and the sealing ring 20 .
[0078] In order to reduce vibrations and increase rigidity, the outer circumference of the cover 4 is composed of four regions, each of which is a cylindrical shell segment whose cylindrical radius is greater than half of the maximum outer diameter of the cover 4 .
[0079] In this way, the cover 4 has a rounded, polygonal appearance, so that the liquid flows out quickly and achieves high rigidity and low vibration capacity. In addition, the largest possible volume of the surrounding inner space area can also be achieved. Here, the wall thickness of the cover 4 is preferably constant.
[0080] The area covered by each of the cylindrical shell segments in the circumferential direction is of the same size. The cylinder axis is parallel to the rotation axis of the rotor shaft but spaced apart.
[0081] In other embodiments according to the invention, the cover is not composed of four cylindrical shell segments, but of another number, three, five, six, seven or eight cylindrical shell segments. The area covered by each of the cylindrical shell segments in the circumferential direction is again of the same size. The cylinder axis is also parallel to the rotation axis of the rotor shaft, but spaced apart.
[0082] In other embodiments according to the present invention, a threaded rod with a nut is used instead of the long bolt with a bolt head.
[0083] In other embodiments according to the present invention, the driver and the rotor shaft are formed integrally together, that is, the external toothing is formed directly on the rotor shaft.
[0084] In other embodiments according to the present invention, the braking surface is formed on a plate, in particular a friction plate, which is connected to the end cover in a rotationally fixed manner and is arranged axially between the end cover and the brake plate carrier.
