Description

[Technical field]

[0001] The present invention relates to a technique for applying a magnetic force to an object to be magnetized. [Background technology]

[0002] Patent Document 1 describes a split stator in which an insulator is resin-molded on the teeth side of a split core, a molded coil is fitted into the teeth, and the molded coil is resin-molded using a molding die. A number of split stators are arranged in an annular shape inside an outer cylinder and shrink-fitted to form a motor stator. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0003] [Patent Document 1] JP 2009-72055 A Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0004] The device including the stator and outer cylinder described above can be used as a magnetizing yoke device that applies a magnetic force to a magnetized object. In the device described in Patent Document 1, when a pulse current is applied to the coil, a radially inward force acts on the coil. Here, since the only thing that secures the coil against the radially inward force is the resin, there is a risk that the coil will pop out radially inward, resulting in a problem of shortening the product life. In addition, since the split core is pressed into the stator, it is necessary to replace the entire device in the event of a malfunction (such as a burst).

[0005] The present invention has been made in consideration of the above-mentioned points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a magnetizing yoke device which has an improved product life and can be partially repaired in the event of a breakdown. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the magnetizing yoke device of the present invention comprises a base portion, a plurality of first split cores arranged circumferentially on the base portion and having a recess opening radially inward corresponding to the circumference, an insulator having a pair of wall portions facing each other in the radial direction of the plurality of first split cores arranged circumferentially, a coil arranged between the pair of wall portions, and a second split core having a convex portion accommodated in the recess, which are integrated together, the magnetizing yoke device comprising a base portion, a plurality of cassette-type coils arranged radially inward of the first split cores, and a plurality of positioning portions for positioning the cassette-type coils relative to the base portion, the cassette-type coils being restricted from moving inward in the radial direction by the positioning portions, and being detachable from the assembly of the base portion, the first split cores, and the positioning portions. Effect of the Invention

[0007] According to the present invention, in a magnetizing yoke device, the coil is prevented from popping out, thereby improving the product life and enabling partial repair in the event of a breakdown. [Brief description of the drawings]

[0009] Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the circumferential direction and the radial direction are expressed based on the base, more specifically, based on a circular shape formed by a plurality of positioning parts, a first divided core, and a cassette coil arranged on the base. The up-down direction is based on the state in which the base is placed on the floor and various members are placed on the base.

[0010] 1 and 2, a magnetizing yoke device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is a device that applies a magnetic force to a magnet arranged in a rotor for a motor as a magnetized target X. In other words, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can also be said to be a ferromagnetic material manufacturing device that manufactures a magnetized target (ferromagnetic material) by applying a magnetic force to the magnetized target X, which is in a paramagnetic state. The magnetizing yoke device 1 includes a base unit 2, a target installation unit 3, multiple sets of positioning units 40, first divided cores 50 and cassette-type coils 4, and multiple circuit units 120.

[0011] In addition, the positioning portion 40, the first divided core 50, the cassette-type coil 4, and the members provided above the circuit portion 120 are omitted in Fig. 1. In addition, in Fig. 2, only the second annular member 30 of the base portion 2 and the positioning portion 40 are hatched to make the flow path of the cooling medium easier to understand.

[0012] <Base part> The base unit 2 is provided for mounting the first split core 50 for magnetization and the cassette coil 4. The base unit 2 is a member made of metal (non-magnetic metal such as SUS) that is placed on a floor surface G. The base unit 2 includes a disk member 10 having a disk shape in a plan view, a first circular ring member 20 that is concentrically disposed on the disk member 10 and has a circular ring shape in a plan view, a second circular ring member 30 that is concentrically disposed on the first circular ring member 20 and has a circular ring shape in a plan view, and a plurality of leg members F that are disposed below the disk member 10 and support the disk member 10 on the floor surface G.

[0015] <Positioning section> The positioning portion 40 is for positioning the first split core 50 and the cassette-type coil 4 on the base portion 2. The positioning portion 40 is a member made of metal (non-magnetic metal such as SUS) standing from the radial inside of the first circular ring member 20. The multiple positioning portions 40 (12 in this embodiment) are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction (every 30 degrees in this embodiment). The positioning portion 40 includes a base portion 41 arranged on the first circular ring member 20 and a shaft portion 42 standing from the base portion 41.

[0016] The base portion 41 is located radially inside the second circular ring member 30, and is a part that positions the first split core 50 and restricts the radially inward and circumferential movement of the first split core 50, and has an approximately rectangular parallelepiped shape.

[0017] The shaft portion 42 is a portion that positions the cassette-type coil 4 and restricts the movement of the cassette-type coil 4 in the radial and circumferential directions, and has a hollow shape, and in this embodiment, a cylindrical shape.

[0018] A flow passage 40a through which a cooling medium (e.g., water) can flow is formed inside the base portion 41 and the shaft portion 42. The flow passage 40a is in communication with an annular flow passage 30a formed in the second circular member 30.

[0019] <First split core> The first split core 50 is a member made of metal (magnetic metal such as SS4000 or SPC) having a substantially sector shape (in this embodiment, a sector shape of about 30 degrees) in a plan view. The first split core 50 is formed by stacking a plurality of iron plates in the vertical direction. A plurality of first split cores 50 (12 in this embodiment) are arranged in the circumferential direction. A recess 51 that opens to the radially inner side is formed in the radially inner side of the first split core 50. The upper and lower ends of the recess 51 are open. The lower end of the recess 51 constitutes a positioned portion 51a having a shape following the base portion 41 of the positioning portion 40. That is, the radially inner side of the first split core 50 is arranged on the first annular member 20, and the radially outer side of the first split core 50 is arranged on the second annular member 30, with the lower end set higher than the lower end of the radially inner side.

[0020] <Cassette coil> The cassette type coil 4 is disposed radially inside the first split core 50, and is a unit for applying a magnetic force to the magnetized target X by cooperating with the first split core 50. A plurality of cassette type coils 4 (12 in this embodiment) are disposed in the circumferential direction. As shown in Figs. 3 to 7, the cassette type coil 4 includes an insulator 5, an edgewise coil (coil) 80, a second split core 90, terminal portions 100, 100, and a resin portion 110.

[0021] <Insulator> The insulator 5 is a resin member for insulating the edgewise coil 80 from the first split core 50 and the second split core 90. As shown in FIG.

[0022] The inner member 60 is a member that constitutes a radially inner wall portion of the insulator 5. The inner member 60 is formed with a hole portion 60a having a shape following a tubular portion 72 of the outer member 70 described below, and a recessed portion 60b provided on the radially inner surface of the inner member 60 around the periphery of the hole portion 60a.

[0023] The outer member 70 is a member that constitutes the radial outside of the insulator 5. The outer member 70 integrally includes a wall portion 71 that faces the inner member 60 on the radial outside, and a tubular portion 72 that extends radially inward from the wall portion. A hole portion 71a that communicates with the tubular portion 72 is formed in the wall portion 71.

[0024] The cylindrical portion 72 has a substantially rectangular shape when viewed along the axis of the cylindrical portion 72. The tip portion (radially inner end portion) of the cylindrical portion 72 abuts against the periphery of the hole portion 60a of the inner member 60. The tip portion of the cylindrical portion 72 may be configured to be fitted into the hole portion 60a. The tip portion of the cylindrical portion 72 is fixed to the inner member 60 by an adhesive or the like (not shown). The corner portion 72a of the cylindrical portion 72 has an R shape (in this embodiment, an R shape following the corner portion 80a of the edgewise coil 80). With this configuration, stress concentration at the corner portion of the cylindrical portion 72 can be avoided, and the product life can be improved.

[0025] <Edgewise coil> As shown in Fig. 4, the edgewise coil 80 is fitted around the tubular portion 72. As shown in Fig. 6, the edgewise coil 80 is a so-called concentrated winding metallic coil that is independent for each cassette-type coil 4. The edgewise coil 80 is formed by bending a rectangular wire in the edgewise direction, and compared to a round wire coil, it is possible to ensure a cross-sectional area and allow a large current to flow. Ends 81, 81 of the edgewise coil 80 are inserted into a base end portion 101 of a terminal portion 100 described later and fixed by crimping.

[0026] <Second split core> The second split core 90 is a member made of metal (magnetic metal such as SS4000 or SPC) that cooperates with the first split core 50 to form the core of the magnetizing yoke device 1. The second split core 90 is formed by stacking a plurality of iron plates in the vertical direction. As shown in Fig. 7, the second split core 90 integrally includes a flange wall portion 91 and a broadly defined protrusion portion 92 that extends radially outward from the flange wall portion 91.

[0027] The flange wall portion 91 is housed in the recess 60 b of the inner member 60 .

[0028] The protrusion 92 includes a tooth portion 92a constituting the base end side (radial inner side) of the protrusion 92, and a narrowly defined protrusion 92b constituting the tip end side (radial outer side) of the protrusion 92.

[0029] The teeth portion 92 a is a portion of the protruding portion 92 that is inserted into the edgewise coil 80 , that is, the cylindrical portion 72 .

[0030] The protruding portion 92b is a portion of the protruding portion 92 in a broad sense that is exposed radially outward from the edgewise coil 80, i.e., the cylindrical portion 72, and is accommodated in the recessed portion 51 of the first split core 50. The protruding portion 92b is formed with a hole portion 92b1 that penetrates in the up-down direction.

[0031] <Terminal part> 3, the terminal portion 100 is a metal member for electrically connecting the edgewise coil 80 and the circuit portion 120 to each other. A base end portion 101 of the terminal portion 100 has a shape through which the end portion 81 of the edgewise coil 80 can be inserted. A tip portion 102 of the terminal portion 100 has a shape (hole portion) through which the bolt B can be inserted.

[0032] <Resin part> 4, the resin part 110 is a thermosetting resin provided between a pair of wall parts (the inner member 60 and the wall part 71) of the insulator 5 so as to cover the edgewise coil 80. The resin part 110 has high viscosity (about 150 Pa s) in an uncured state, and is cured by heating after being provided by application. The resin part 110 fixes the insulator 5, the edgewise coil 80, and the terminal part 100 to each other, and ensures insulation between adjacent edgewise coils 80.

[0033] <Circuit section> The circuit units 120 are disposed on adjacent first divided cores 50, and the tip end 102 of the terminal unit 100 of one cassette-type coil 4 and the tip end 102 of the terminal unit 100 of the other adjacent cassette-type coil 4 are detachably fixed by a bolt B. The circuit units 120 are formed of resin and metal, and have a part of a circuit for electrically connecting the terminal units 100 electrically connected to the ends of the edgewise coil 80. In other words, the multiple circuit units 120 are electrically connected to each other by wiring or the like, and constitute a circuit for passing a pulse current in cooperation with the edgewise coil 80 and the wiring.

[0034] <Manufacturing method for cassette type coils> Here, a manufacturing method of the cassette type coil 4 will be described. The worker inserts the convex portion 92 of the second divided core 90 into the hole portion 60a of the inner member 60, and accommodates the wall portion 91 of the second divided core 90 in the recessed portion 60b of the inner member 60. Next, the worker annularly mounts the edgewise coil 80 on the convex portion 92. Next, the worker inserts the tubular portion 72 of the outer member 70 between the convex portion 92 and the edgewise coil 80. Here, the inner member 60 and the outer member 70 are fixed to each other by an adhesive. Next, the worker crimps and fixes the base end portion 101 of the terminal portion 100 to the ends 81, 81 of the edgewise coil 80. Next, the worker applies uncured thermosetting resin so as to cover the edgewise coil 80 and the base end portion 101 of the terminal portion 100, and hardens the resin portion 110.

[0035] <Assembly method for cassette coil> Next, a method of assembling the cassette-type coil 4 to the assembly of the base 2, the positioning portion 40, and the first divided core 50 will be described. The worker installs the cassette-type coil 4 on the first annular member 20 of the base 2 by inserting the shaft portion 42 of the positioning portion 40 into the hole portion 92b1 formed in the protruding portion 92b of the cassette-type coil 4. Here, of the cassette-type coil 4, the insulator 5, the edgewise coil 80, etc. are arranged on the radial inside of the first divided core 50, and the protruding portion 92b is arranged in the recessed portion 51 of the first divided core 50. The radial inner surface of the base portion 41 in the positioning portion 40 may be covered by the inner member (wall portion) 60 of the insulator 5, or may be covered by a resin wall member other than the insulator 5.

[0036] Next, the worker places the circuit portion 120 on the first divided core 50 and the protruding portion 92b of the cassette-type coil 4, and fixes the circuit portion 120 to the first divided core 50 with the bolts B.

[0037] Next, the worker connects and fixes the tip portion 102 of the terminal portion 100 of the cassette-type coil 4 to the circuit portion 120 with the bolt B.

[0038] <Magnetization method using a magnetizing yoke device> Next, a method of magnetizing the magnetization target X by the magnetizing yoke device 1 will be described. An operator places the magnetization target X on the target placement unit 3. Next, when the operator operates an operation unit (not shown), a control unit (not shown) applies a pulse current to the edgewise coil 80 of the cassette-type coil 4 in response to the operation result, and drives a pump (not shown) to circulate a cooling medium through the flow path 40a of the positioning unit 40. In this way, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can apply a magnetic force to the magnetization target X by the magnetic fields generated in the first divided core 50, the second divided core 90, and the edgewise coil 80 while cooling the first divided core 50, the edgewise coil 80, and the second divided core 90.

[0039] The edgewise coil 80 is restricted from moving radially inward by the inner member (wall portion) 60 of the insulator 5. In this embodiment, the inner member 60 of the insulator 5 is restricted from moving radially inward by the wall portion 91 of the second divided core 90. This structure makes it possible to prevent the edgewise coil 80 from moving radially inward due to a force generated by current flow.

[0040] <Method of replacing cassette coils in case of breakdown> If the edgewise coil 80 and / or terminal portion 100 fails (bursts, etc.) due to the passage of a pulse current, an operator can replace only the cassette-type coil 4 having the failed edgewise coil 80 and / or terminal portion 100 by removing the terminal portion 100 of the corresponding cassette-type coil 4 from the circuit portion 120 and removing the convex portion 92b from the shaft portion 42 of the positioning portion 40.

[0041] A magnetizing yoke device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a base portion 2, a plurality of first split cores 50 arranged circumferentially on the base portion 2 and having a recess 51 opening radially inward corresponding to the circumference, an insulator 5 having a pair of wall portions facing each other in the radial direction of the plurality of first split cores 50 arranged circumferentially, a coil arranged between the pair of wall portions, and a second split core 90 having a protrusion 92b accommodated in the recess 51, which are integrated together and comprise a plurality of cassette-type coils 4 arranged on the radially inner side of the first split cores 50, and a plurality of positioning portions 40 that position the cassette-type coils 4 relative to the base portion 2, wherein the cassette-type coils 4 are restricted from moving inward in the radial direction by the positioning portions 40, and are detachable from the assembly of the base portion 2, the first split cores 50, and the positioning portions 40. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 improves the product life by preventing the coil from popping out, and also enables partial repair in the event of a breakdown.

[0042] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the positioning portion 40 has a shaft portion 42 standing upright from the base portion 2, and the shaft portion 42 is inserted into a hole portion 92b1 formed in the protrusion 92. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can, by means of the shaft portion 42 and the hole portion 92b1, suitably position the cassette-type coil 4 relative to the base portion 2 and the first split core 50, while suitably restricting the radially inward movement of the second split core 90 (i.e., the edgewise coil 80).

[0043] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the shaft portion 42 has a hollow shape through which a cooling medium can flow. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 realizes the function of positioning the cassette type coil 4, the function of restricting movement, and the function of cooling the first split core 50 and the cassette type coil 4 by the shaft portion 42, so that the number of parts can be reduced.

[0044] In the magnetizing yoke device 1 , the positioning portion 40 has a base portion 41 provided at the base end of the shaft portion 42 , and the base portion 41 positions the first split core 50 with respect to the base portion 2 . Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 positions the first divided core 50 and the cassette-type coil 4 relative to the base part 2 by the positioning part 40, so that it is possible to realize suitable magnetizing performance while reducing the number of parts.

[0045] In addition, in the magnetizing yoke device 1, the insulator 5 has a cylindrical portion 72 connecting the pair of wall portions, the coil is ring-mounted on the cylindrical portion 72, and the second split core 90 has a teeth portion 92a extending from the convex portion 92b and accommodated within the cylindrical portion 72. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can insulate the coil and the teeth portion 92a by the cylindrical portion 72, thereby achieving favorable magnetization performance.

[0046] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the second split core 90 has a flange wall portion 91 extending from an inner end portion of the tooth portion 92a in the radial direction, The flange wall portion 91 abuts against the inner surface in the radial direction of the wall portion on the inner side in the radial direction of the insulator 5, and the positioning portion 40 restricts the inward movement of the convex portion 92b in the radial direction. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can effectively restrict radially inward movement of the coil by the wall portion 91 of the second split core 90.

[0047] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the corners of the cylindrical portion 72 are rounded. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can improve the product life by reducing stress concentration. Also, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can improve the fixing performance of the coil by fitting a coil conforming to the shape of the cylindrical portion 72 to the outside of the cylindrical portion 72.

[0048] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the coil is an edgewise coil 80. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can ensure the cross-sectional area of ​​the coil and allow a large current to flow, thereby achieving favorable magnetizing performance.

[0049] In the magnetizing yoke device 1, the coil is covered with resin (resin portion 110) between the pair of walls. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can preferably ensure insulation between adjacent coils.

[0050] The magnetizing yoke device 1 also includes a terminal portion 100 attached to the end of the coil, and a circuit portion 120 having a circuit for connecting the terminal portion 100 of one cassette-type coil 4 and the terminal portion 100 of the other cassette-type coil 4 to each other, and the terminal portion 100 is detachably attached to the circuit portion 120 by a bolt B. Therefore, the magnetizing yoke device 1 can easily form a circuit that connects the coils and can easily replace the cassette-type coil 4.

[0051] Although the embodiment of the present invention has been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and can be modified as appropriate without departing from the gist of the present invention. For example, the magnetization target X is not limited to a rotor for a motor. Also, the coil is not limited to the edgewise coil 80. [Explanation of symbols]
