Abstract

The invention relates to an actuator for actuating a valve installed in a hydraulic or compressed air system comprising a coil support which can be displaced by means of air space induction in a magnetically conducting housing on a magnetic cylinder composed of a permanent magnet and a cylinder pole disk. The invention is characterized in that the dimensions of the permanent magnet and the pole disk correspond to each other in such a way that the diameter of the front surface of the permanent magnet is at least the same size as the circumferential surface of a neighboring pole disk and that the width of the coil associated with the pole disk exceeds the width of the pole disk by the lift amplitude of the coil support. According to the invention, the actuator for actuating a valve used in fluidic engineering is disposed in such a way that the coil support is displaceable in a fluidic medium and the air gap arranged between the coil support and a magnetic cylinder pipe surrounding the permanent magnet and the associated pole disk has a maximum width whereby a laminated lubricating film is formed without displacing the surrounding fluid.

Description

Actuator for a fluid valve

Description

The invention relates to an actuator for actuating a valve, with a housing jacket made of magnetically conductive material, a coil carrier having an actuation projection and movable in the housing jacket with the formation of an air gap therefor, with at least one coil through which current flows and on one of which is wound Coil carrier with the formation of an air gap enclosed magnetic cylinder with an axially arranged inside a sequence of permanent magnet and a magnet disc made of a magnetically conductive material, the axial width of the coil being greater than the axial length of the pole disc associated with the coil.

An actuator with the aforementioned features is described in US Pat. No. 5,345,206, which in principle can also be used to actuate a valve. The known actuator consists of a housing which is closed on one side and consists entirely of a magnetically conductive material, in which the coil carrier, which can be moved out of the housing with an actuating projection, can be moved. The known actuator is characterized in that the pole disks are narrow compared to the adjacent permanent magnets and the wound on the coil carrier Coils have a much larger width than the assigned narrow pole disks.

With this configuration, a stray field acting on the coils overlapping the permanent magnets by the permanent magnets is to be deliberately generated in the known actuator due to magnetic saturation of the narrow pole disks. The disadvantage is accepted that the magnetic flux provided by the permanent magnet cannot be fully converted into a useful flow that causes the movement of the coil carrier and the field lines have to cover a large distance in the air gap next to the pole areas, for which one larger amount of magnetic material is required. Since the coils are designed with a dimension that largely overlaps the width of the associated pole disk to detect the leakage flux, there is a relatively large amount of coil material on the coil carrier. This disadvantageously not only increases the mass of the coil carrier to be moved during the function of the actuator, but rather the energization of a coil formed with a corresponding winding mass also leads to a correspondingly strong heating of the coil. This heating stresses the heat balance of the actuator and also leads to a corresponding expansion behavior of the individual coil former with a consequent influence on the dimension of the intended air gap and a limitation of the maximum possible energy density.

These disadvantages mean that a known actuator for controlling or actuating valves used in fluid technology cannot be used, and therefore lies The invention has for its object to set up an actuator with the features mentioned above for use in fluid technology. Fluid technology means in particular the actuation of valves used in hydraulics and in compressed air technology.

This object is achieved, including advantageous refinements and developments of the invention, from the content of the patent claims, which follow this description.

The basic idea of the invention provides that the size dimensions of the permanent magnet and pole disk are matched to one another such that the end cross-sectional area of the permanent magnet corresponds at least to the circumferential surface of an adjacent pole disk and that the width of the coil assigned to the pole disk corresponds to the width of the pole disk by the stroke amplitude of the Coil carrier overlaps, and that the actuator for actuating a valve set up in fluid technology is set up in such a way that the coil carrier is movable in a fluidic medium and the air gap between the coil carrier and a magnetic cylinder tube surrounding the permanent magnet and the associated pole disk is dimensioned to a maximum that a laminar film of lubricant forms between the parts without displacing the surrounding fluid.

The invention is associated with the advantage that the stray flux which does not contribute to the force exerted on the coil carrier is initially kept low by virtue of the fact that the entire magnetic flux in the region of the pole disk radially on the geometrically shortest path through the Air gap is guided between the magnetic cylinder tube and the housing or housing jacket, so that all coil conductors are acted upon by the maximum air gap induction. So that this is ensured during the entire axial movement of the coil carrier relative to the fixed magnetic cylinder tube, it is provided according to the invention that the width of the coil assigned to the pole disk overlaps the width of the pole disk by the stroke amplitude of the coil carrier. Insofar as this limits the expansion of the coils to the necessary extent, an arrangement of coils with the smallest possible self-inductance and a low winding weight advantageously results.

Insofar as the size of the air gap between the coil carrier and the magnetic cylinder tube is also decisive for the stray flux to be avoided according to the invention, the invention provides for the smallest possible air gap to be set by the air gap existing between the coil carrier movable in the fluidic medium and the magnetic cylinder tube being maximally so It is broad that there is a laminar lubricating film between the parts without displacing the surrounding fluid. On the one hand, the aspect of the use of the actuator in fluid technology is taken into account in a special way, because a kind of sliding bearing of the coil carrier on the magnetic cylinder tube occurs with the least possible frictional losses, the displacement of the fluid surrounding the coil carrier caused by the axial movement of the coil carrier in the fluid on the outside of the bobbin. Here, when the actuator is used in the hydraulic system, the hydraulic fluid present ensures the formation of the tr o> 13 n N μ- ¹ oi co n cn 01 r H pi 01 01 cn cn <! N cn Q. cn

not sufficient for the desired movement of the bobbin. It is therefore provided according to an embodiment of the invention that a plurality of magnet modules are arranged axially one behind the other within the housing shell, axially identical poles of the permanent magnet of each magnet module being opposite one another. It can be provided here that the outer pole disks of each magnet module are joined to form a one-piece connecting pole disk.

Insofar as there is a loss of scatter in the case of an alternating arrangement of permanent magnet and pole disk in the magnetic cylinder tube in the region of pole disks located at the outer ends, since the magnetic flux in the pole disk from the inner permanent magnet is not completely deflected in the direction of the coil covering the pole disk According to an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the edge magnet of the magnetic cylinder tube formed by the outer pole disks of the magnetic module or the magnetic modules has an edge magnet which is matched in its strength to the compensation of the magnetic leakage flux occurring at the ends of the magnetic cylinder tube and with which magnetic Is conductive material existing housing shell is connected so that the magnetic flux emanating from the edge magnet closes via the housing connected to the edge magnet. Since the edge magnet only has to compensate for the leakage losses in the area of the associated pole disk, it need not have the same axial dimension as the main magnet or the main magnets arranged in the magnet carrier. 0 PL KP μ-, SO 3 <s N μ- «a cn K <ia 0 3 a er φ tu o> h £ ≥J φ Φ PPPHP 01 o PPP μ- ¹ μ- rt is o Φ 3 Φ 01 Φ Φ μ- μ- p- P p: O: P

This type of fixing of the magnetic cylinder or the magnetic cylinder tube in the housing also makes it possible, according to one embodiment of the invention, to form the housing shell open on both sides with claw poles formed at its two ends, the coil carrier movable in the housing shell having a supporting star on both ends thereof protruding plunger can have.

In particular, it can be provided that the claw poles are designed to match the gaps existing between the spokes of the supporting star.

With the fixation of the magnetic cylinder or the magnetic cylinder tube in the housing, the possibility is created that the claw poles form an anti-rotation device for the support star with a plunger, provided that when the actuator interacts with a valve used in fluid technology, when the valve starts up, torsional forces also act on the plunger and so that can be transferred to the coil carrier via the support star. In order to avoid surface contact friction between the fixed claw poles and the coil carrier during its displacement, it can be provided according to one embodiment of the invention that at least one claw pole has a projection, for example hump-shaped or linear, against the associated spoke of the support star, so that surface friction is avoided and only point or line friction is permitted. Accordingly, a projection can also be formed on a spoke and rest against the claw pole. Furthermore, there is advantageously the possibility that a claw pole and / or the magnetic cylinder clamped between the claw pole and the housing or between the claw poles on both sides or the magnetic cylinder tube form a fixed holder for the sensor of a displacement measuring system with respect to the housing, so that the measurement results of the Measuring system distorting movements of the sensor carrier are excluded.

According to one exemplary embodiment of the invention, the construction of a magnet module or of a plurality of magnet modules can also be such that a magnet module is formed by a pole disc arranged in the center of the magnet cylinder tube and by two permanent magnets arranged on the outside, with axially identical poles of the permanent magnets opposing and on each other the coil carrier is wound with a coil assigned to the centrally arranged pole disk. This is associated with the advantage that the permanent magnets arranged on the outer ends of the magnetic cylinder tube simultaneously act as edge magnets and thus allow the magnetic cylinder tube to be fixed directly between the claw poles and the housing or between the claw poles arranged on both sides of the housing. In comparison with an additional arrangement of edge magnets, this arrangement furthermore offers the advantageous possibility of reducing the number of magnets with the same force effect. According to an embodiment of the invention, a plurality of alternating pole disks and permanent magnets can also be arranged between two external permanent magnets. According to one embodiment of the invention, it can be provided that a prestressed spring for acting on the plunger in its coupling position with a valve connected to the actuator is arranged between the support star of the coil carrier and the front end of the magnetic cylinder tube.

With regard to the design of the coil carrier including coils wound thereon, it can be provided that the coil carrier consisting of electrically non-conductive material, for example made of plastic, hard tissue or ceramic, has recesses for receiving the coils, into which the individual coils are wound. Furthermore, it can be provided according to an embodiment of the invention that the coils wound in the recesses of the coil carrier are overlaid by a protective layer, so that the coil carrier provided with coils each has a smooth surface. With such a design of the coil carrier, very small air gaps between the coil carrier and the magnetic cylinder tube on the one hand and the housing jacket on the other hand can be realized.

Finally, according to one embodiment of the invention it can be provided that grooves running in the longitudinal direction of the housing shell are arranged for the passage of the fluid displaced in the housing shell when the coil carrier is moved axially; in this way, a small air gap can be realized between the coil carrier and the housing jacket despite the displacement required in the fluid surrounding it when the coil carrier is moved. Appropriate grooves can optionally also be provided on the outer circumference of the coil carrier.

Air gap induction are applied. In order to keep the leakage flux that does not contribute to the generation of force as low as possible, short magnet lengths and small air gaps should be aimed for. For this reason, as can not be seen in the schematic illustration in FIG. 1, the size dimensions of permanent magnet 16 and pole disks 17 are matched to one another in such a way that the end cross-sectional area of the permanent magnet corresponds at least to the circumferential surface of the respective pole disk. This is shortened if the axial magnet length and the axial length of the pole disks 17 correspond to approximately half the diameter of the permanent magnet 16. Longer pole disks are quite possible within the scope of the inventive concept. Furthermore, each of the two coils 23 must overlap the width of the associated pole disk 17 by the stroke amplitude of the coil carrier 19, so that the greatest possible force is achieved during the entire movement sequence of the coil carrier 19. The two coils 23 are axially spatially separated from one another by a non-conductive spacing area 30 of the coil carrier 19, but are electrically connected to one another via the winding wire. Since the two coils 23 are also wound in opposite directions, mutual inductance is avoided.

To the extent that the air gap 24 existing between the magnetic cylinder tube 15 and the coil carrier 19 is to be kept small to avoid an unusable leakage flux, the air gap 24 should be dimensioned to a maximum that a laminar lubricating film is formed between the parts 15, 19 without displacement of the coil carrier 19 or adjusts the fluid surrounding the magnetic cylinder tube. In the case of a construction of an actuator shown in FIG. 1 with a magnet module arranged in the housing 10 with the construction described, the permanent magnet 16 generates a radially from the inside to the outside in the entire air gap 24, 25 between the magnet cylinder tube 15 and the housing jacket 11 in the region of the coils 23 directed homogeneous magnetic field, which can close according to the direction of flow 31 via the magnetically conductive, annular housing shell 11. The coils 23 through which a direct current flows are deflected transversely to the magnetic field direction in a homogeneous magnetic field with a force proportional to the coil current, the magnetic air gap induction and the number of turns of the two coils 23. For this purpose, a current is supplied to the coils 23 arranged on the movable coil carrier 19 through highly flexible cables, not shown in detail. A deflection of the coil carrier 19 and thus an axial movement of the plunger 22 takes place as long as current-carrying conductors, ie the coils 23, are in the magnetic field. If the current is switched, that also reverses

Direction of movement of the bobbin 19 around, so that a reciprocating movement of the bobbin 19 or the plunger 22 carried by it results according to arrow 32. Since the arrangement shown in Figure 1 is magnetically free of lateral forces, the setting of the air gap 24 to form a laminar lubricating film allows the coil carrier 19 to be guided in the recess 14 of the housing 10 without additional storage, which is to be regarded as a special operating advantage. od 4-1 to d φ o -d r- 4-1 Φ φ to Φ A Φ -μ

the correspondingly arranged spacer 18 now consist of a magnetically conductive material.

On the end face 13 opposite the end face 12, radially inwardly jumping magnetically conductive holders 27 with axially attached claw poles 28 are provided to form a magnetically conductive connection to the edge magnet 26 arranged there, the claw poles 28 between the spokes 21 of the support star 20 of the coil carrier 19 grip (Figure 4) and come into contact with the outer edge magnet 26 of the magnetic cylinder 15. The magnetically conductive holders 27 can also be designed, for example, as a circumferential disk connected to the housing jacket 11, from which claw poles start. Due to the magnetic forces that arise, the magnetic cylinder 15 is thus firmly connected to the end wall 12 of the housing 10 on the one hand and to the claw poles 28 forming part of the housing 10 on the other hand, so that there is a stable configuration which also withstands a greater force. For this reason, the claw poles 28 are particularly suitable for forming an anti-rotation device for the support star 20 of the coil carrier 19 with a plunger 22 or also for serving as a holder for the sensor of a position measuring system.

As can be seen from FIG. 5, it is also possible in an exemplary embodiment of the actuator according to the invention shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 to carry out a sequence of permanent magnets 16 and pole disks 17 in the magnetic cylinder tube 15, corresponding edge magnets 26 being provided. A further possibility of using the advantages of the actuator shown in FIGS. 3 and 4 is shown in FIG. 6, in which the housing 10 is designed to be open on both sides with claw poles 28 arranged on both sides, so that the coil carrier 19 is correspondingly provided on both end faces via a support star 20 can be provided with plungers 22 protruding from the housing 10 on both sides; this provides actuation of connected units in both directions of movement of the coil carrier 19 in the housing 10. Since the magnetic cylinder tube 15 is in turn firmly clamped over the claw poles 28 arranged on both sides of the housing, the magnetic cylinder tube 15 is held on both sides without the actuation on both sides being obstructed by the tappets 22 on both sides. Another difference between the exemplary embodiments shown in FIG. 6 and in FIGS. 3 and 5 is that a central pole disk 17 is arranged in the embodiment according to FIG. 6, on each side of which a permanent magnet 16 lies in the magnetic cylinder tube 15. These external permanent magnets 16 simultaneously take over the function of the edge magnets still provided in the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 3 and 5, so that these edge magnets can be dispensed with with the same force effect for the rest. This results in a saving in magnetic material. As can be seen from FIG. 7, such an arrangement can also be implemented with a sequence of several pole disks 17 and permanent magnets 16. Finally, FIG. 8 shows an example of how a coil carrier 19 can be designed. In the exemplary embodiment shown, recesses 35 are recessed into the outer surface of the coil carrier 19, in which the coils 23 are wound, in order to accommodate the coils 23. The recesses 35 or coils 23 are then covered or cast with a protective layer 36, so that there is a correspondingly smooth outer circumference for the coil carrier 19, which enables the setting of small air gaps 24, 25.

The features of the subject matter of these documents disclosed in the above description, the patent claims, the abstract and the drawing can be essential both individually and in any combination with one another for realizing the invention in its various embodiments.
