Description

Pierburg Pump Technology GmbH, 41460 Neuss
Electric motor
The invention is directed to an electric motor for a motor vehicle, preferably to an electric motor for a motor vehicle auxiliary unit.
Electric motors are provided with a rotatable motor rotor and with a static motor stator. Preferably, the motor rotor is provided permanently magnetized and the motor stator is provided electromagnet!cally magnetized so that no wear-prone sliding contacts are required for energizing the electromagnetic motor stator. The motor stator of this brushless electric motor comprises a stator body with at least one stator coll being electrically energized to provide a stator magnetic field for driving the motor rotor.
The permanently magnetized motor rotor can be provided with a monolithic rotor body made of a permanently magnetized resin bonded material, i.e. a permanent magnetic powder being embedded In a resin. The monolithic rotor body is typically directly fixed to a rotor shaft, which allows a compact realization of the motor rotor and, as a result, of the electric motor. However, the resin bonded material allows only a relatively low magnetic power density so that the electric motor can provide only a low mechanical performance.
Alternatively, the permanently magnetized motor rotor can be provided with permanent magnets, for example made of a sintered material, which are embedded into a preferably laminated rotor body. Sintered materials such as, for example, rare-earth containing alloys allow a significantly higher magnetic power density compared to resin bonded materials. As result, the motor rotor with sintered magnets being embedded into the laminated rotor body allows a high-performance electric motor. However, the multi-piece motor rotor is relatively large.
It is an object of the invention to provide a compact and high-performance electric motor for a motor vehicle.
This object is achieved with an electric motor with the features of claim 1.
The electric motor according to the Invention is provided with a permanently magnetized motor rotor defined by a permanently magnetized monolithic rotor body. The monolithic rotor body is directly fixed to a rotor shaft, i.e. the motor rotor Is not provided with any supplemental magnet support body. In particular, the motor rotor does not comprise a laminated rotor core. This allows a very compact realization of the motor rotor and, as a result, of the electric motor. Preferably, the monolithic rotor body is directly cast or sintered onto the rotor shaft. This allows a very strong and reliable fixation of the rotor body at the rotor shaft. The electric motor according to the invention is also provided with a motor stator with a stator body and at least one stator coll. The stator coil Is electrically energized to provide a stator magnetic field for driving the motor rotor. The ferromagnetic stator body can be provided as laminated stator body to minimize eddy currents within the motor stator and, as a result, to allow a high motor efficiency and a high motor power.
According to the invention, the monolithic rotor body of the motor rotor is only made of a sintered material. The sintered material can be, for example, a rare-earth containing alloy such as NdFeB. The sintered material can be directly cast onto the rotor body and can be easily permanently magnetized. The sintered material allows a high magnetic power density and, as a result, a high mechanical motor performance of the electric motor. As a result, the motor rotor with the monolithic rotor body made of a sintered material allows a compact and high-power electric motor. Preferably, the monolithic rotor body is a permanently and diametrically magnetized ring magnet with two magnetic poles. The sintered material can be easily manufactured anisotropic to define exactly two diametrical magnetic poles. Since the motor rotor has an annular shape and Is diametrically magnetized, the rotating motor rotor generates a substantially sinusoidal local magnetic field profile, which is detectable at a suitable static sensor position. This allows a very exact detection of the rotor position so that the electric motor can be controlled very accurately and reliably. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the monolithic rotor body is coated with a corrosion protection film to avoid a corrosion of the motor rotor even if the motor rotor is in contact with a corrosive fluid. The monolithic rotor body can be, for example, coated with a nickel alloy such as Ni-Cu-Ni.
The electric motor according to the invention can be provided to drive an automotive liquid pump, wherein the motor rotor is In fluidic contact with a pump liquid, i.e. the motor rotor is not f!uidically sealed against the pump liquid. The sintered monolithic rotor body according to the invention allows a very compact automotive fluid pump which can provide a high pump output pressure.
An embodiment of the invention is described with reference to the enclosed drawings, wherein
figure 1 shows a simplified illustration of an automotive liquid pump with an electric motor according to the invention, and figure 2 shows a schematic sectional view of a motor rotor of the electric motor of figure 1.
Figure 1 shows an automotive liquid pump 8 with a brushless electric motor 10, wherein a motor rotor 12 of the electric motor 10 is co- rotatably connected with a pump wheel PW for driving the liquid pump 8, The motor rotor 12 Is in fluidic contact with a pump liquid being pumped by the liquid pump 8. The motor rotor 12 Is fluidically separated from a motor stator 14 by a separating can 15.
The motor stator 14 comprises a ferromagnetic stator body 16 and a single stator coil 18 which is arranged satellite-like. The stator coll 18 is electrically connected with a motor electronics 20 for energizing the stator coil 18 for driving the motor rotor 12.
The motor rotor 12 comprises a monolithic rotor body 22 being fixed at a rotor shaft 24. The monolithic rotor body 22 is made of a sintered material and is permanently magnetized. In the present embodiment of the Invention the monolithic rotor body 22 is a ring magnet made of IMdFeB which is permanently and diametrically magnetized to define exactly two permanent magnetic poles N,S. The monolithic rotor body 22 is directly cast onto the rotor shaft 24 so that the monolithic rotor body 22 is directly fixed to the rotor shaft 24. In the present embodiment of the invention, the monolithic rotor body 22 is coated with a corrosion protection film 26 made of a nickel alloy. Reference list
