Abstract
Description
- This application is a continuation-in-part of copending application Ser. No. 09/998,973, filed Oct. 31, 2001, for “Magnet Retention Channel Arrangement for High Speed Operation” and Ser. No. 10/002,786, filed Nov. 2, 2001, for “Permanent Magnet Retaining Arrangement for High Speed Rotors”, the disclosures of which are incorporated by reference herein.
- This invention relates to arrangements for holding magnets on components such as rotors of electrical machines that rotate at high speed.
- In conventional permanent magnet electrical machines, magnets are radially retained on a rotor by nonmagnetic caps which are keyed into adjacent pole pieces or by providing angled sides on the magnet which are radially retained by wedged-shaped adjacent laminated pole pieces. Such arrangements, however, do not provide sufficient strength to hold a magnet securely in position when subjected to the radial accelerations encountered in high speed machines. In such arrangements, moreover, the pole pieces are subjected to increased stress as a result of the added radial load of the magnet during high speed operation. Furthermore, when angled sides of a magnet are engaged by wedged-shaped adjacent pole pieces, the radial location of the magnet may change, causing imbalance in the rotor. Also, such magnet support arrangements introduce flux path discontinuities in dovetails and oblique surfaces of the components in the magnetic flux path which decrease the efficiency of the machine. Moreover, the use of mechanical fastening arrangements such as bolts or screws requires access holes through magnet holders or pole pieces to permit insertion of fastening devices.
- The Iwata Patent No. 5,811,908 discloses U-shaped permanent magnet retention channels in which the outer ends of the channel walls have projections to be received in corresponding grooves in adjacent pole pieces and the entire channel is made of a single piece of magnetic material.
- In the patent to Irie et al. No. 5,973,435 permanent magnets are assembled within protective nonmagnetic holders having nonmagnetic metal facings with projections by which they are secured to a nonmagnetic connecting band.
- The Kloosterhouse et al. Patent No. 5,191,255 shows a permanent magnet mounted in a U-shaped channel having laterally projecting tabs which receive screws for affixing the channel to a rotor.
- The Burson Patent No. 4,179,634 discloses a magneto rotor having permanent magnets which are retained in a cavity formed in the rotor by pole pieces disposed on opposite sides of the magnet and retained by retaining pins received in axially extending slots in the pole pieces.
- The Patent to Morill No. 2,516,901 discloses a permanent magnet rotor having a hub to which permanent magnets are affixed by screws engaging shoulders on the magnets. In addition, rings may be cast around the shoulders of the magnets and the screws to assist in retaining the magnets on the hub.
- In the magneto shown in the Iwata et al. Patent No. 5,811,908, U-shaped permanent magnet retention channels made of magnetic material have projections at the outer ends of the walls which are received in corresponding grooves in adjacent pole pieces.
- According to the Tomite et al. Patent No. 4,745,319, permanent magnets are secured to the inner surface of a surrounding yoke by attaching one surface of a U-shaped elastic retainer member to the inner surface of the yoke and attaching the ends of the U-shaped retainer to edges of adjacent magnets which are to be retained in the yoke.
- The Lechner et al. Patent No. 6,150,746 discloses a U-shaped permanent magnet retaining channel made of nonmagnetic material having tabs that are welded to pole plates.
- Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a magnet retention arrangement for high speed electric machine rotors which overcomes disadvantages of the prior art.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a magnet retention arrangement for high speed rotors by which a magnet is securely retained in the radial direction in a rotor operating at high speed without introducing flux path discontinuities.
- These and other objects of the invention are attained by providing a magnet retainer which is a U-shaped channel member made of nonmagnetic material which is supported from a rotor hub by interlocking connections between the radially inner ends of the sides of the channel member and the hub. Preferably, the inner ends of the sides of the channel member have lateral projections which are received in corresponding grooves in the rotor hub. The magnets may be inserted into the magnet retention channel before or after the channel is slidably inserted in the corresponding grooves in the nonmagnetic core. By providing interlocking engagement between the hub and the channel member, the necessity for insertion of mechanical fasteners such as bolts or screws is avoided. Moreover, by using a channel member which is made of nonmagnetic material the necessity for bonding or forming a channel member from different parts which are magnetic and nonmagnetic, and the resultant reduction in strength in the channel member, is avoided.
- Further objects and advantages of the invention will be apparent from a reading of the following description in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in which:
- FIG. 1 is a perspective schematic view showing a representative embodiment of a rotor for high speed machines having nonmagnetic magnet retention channels arranged in accordance with the invention; and
- FIG. 2 is a perspective schematic view illustrating the typical magnet retention channel arrangement provided in the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 1.
- The typical embodiment of a high speed component for an electrical machine shown in FIG. 1 is in the form of a
rotor 10 having ashaft 12 carrying anonmagnetic core 14, and having radially projectingferromagnetic pole pieces 16 made, for example, from laminated sheets of ferromagnetic material, angularly distributed around the periphery of thecore 14 and supported from the core in any conventional manner. In order to retain permanent magnets in position between the pole pieces without introducing dovetails or other discontinuities in the flux path, a magnetretention channel arrangement 20 made of nonmagnetic material and containing one or morepermanent magnets 22 is mounted in the space between each adjacent pair ofpole pieces 16. - As best seen in FIG. 2, the magnet
retention channel arrangement 20 has two spacedparallel side walls 26, preferably of uniform thickness, which are integral at their radially outer ends with anend wall 28. The opposite, radially inner ends of theside walls 26 are integrally formed withfeet 32 havinglateral projections 34 extending toward and away from the channel formed by the U-shaped channel member - Because the
side walls 26 are preferably of uniform thickness and thedovetail projections 34 to be received incorresponding grooves 36 in thenonmagnetic core 14 are located away from the flux path through theside walls 26 between themagnet 22 and the adjacentferromagnetic pole pieces 16, any magnetic shorting or discontinuity in the flux path between each magnet and the adjacent pole pieces is avoided. If desired, theouter face 38 of theend wall 28 may have a curvature corresponding to the curvature of the periphery of therotor 10 as shown in FIG. 1. - The
nonmagnetic U-shaped channel 20 is an integral unit preferably made by machining or shaping a solid piece of nonmagnetic material such as stainless steel, or by extrusion, pultrusion or hot isostatic pressed powder metallurgy techniques similar to those used to form jet turbine rotors. Because the U-shapedchannel 20 is an integral unit made of the same material throughout and is mechanically interlocked with the rotor hub it is capable of withstanding the high centrifugal forces applied during high speed operation of therotor 10 to a greater extent than a channel member made of different components or materials joined together. For this reason theside walls 26 can be made thinner, reducing the length of the gap in the magnetic circuit formed by the presence of nonmagnetic material. If necessary, moreover, the strength of themagnets 22 can be increased to compensate for the presence of the nonmagnetic material in the circuit. - By providing an integral nonmagnetic channel member having a mechanically interlocking connection with the hub, magnetic flux path discontinuities and magnetic shorting are substantially eliminated while maximizing magnet retention strength.
- Although the invention has been described herein with reference to specific embodiments, many modifications and variations therein will readily occur to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, all such variations and modifications are included within the intended scope of the invention.
