Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rotary transformer, wherein the rotary transformer has an electrically conductive first element and an electrically conductive second element, wherein the second element is arranged rotatably relative to the first element, wherein the first and the second element are arranged separated by a gap from each other, wherein in the gap, an electrically conductive liquid metal alloy is arranged, which causes an electrically conductive connection between the first and second element, wherein the rotary transformer for preventing contact of the metal alloy with gaseous oxygen having a gaseous oxygen impermeable barrier liquid, wherein the barrier liquid between the liquid metal alloy and a liquid-sealing sealing element in contact with the barrier liquid is arranged, wherein the liquid metal alloy and the barrier liquid are arranged such that they are in contact with each other and wherein as a barrier liquid, a liquid is provided which does not react chemically with the liquid metal alloy and does not mix with the liquid metal alloy.
  • the rotary transformer If the rotary transformer is to be used under ambient air conditions, the rotary transformer or at least parts of the rotary transformer must therefore be very gastight sealed against the ingress of gaseous oxygen from the ambient air.
  • the technical realization of a very good gas-tight seal of a rotating element against a dormant element is technically very difficult to achieve.
  • a seal based on a magnetically conductive liquid such as a ferrofluid.
  • a magnetically conductive liquid such as a ferrofluid.
  • Such based on magnetically conductive fluids seals generally have a preferably annular magnet, from which the liquid is attracted due to their magnetically conductive property.
  • the rotating shaft is passed and the magnetically conductive liquid is disposed in the gap between the shaft and the annular magnet and is held in the gap by the magnetic attraction of the magnet.
  • the magnetically conductive liquid seals the gap gas-tight with very good effect.
  • a disadvantage of the use of such based on a magnetically conductive liquid seal is that this is technically complex and expensive.
  • Another disadvantage is that magnetically conductive metals, although a good have gas sealing properties but, on the other hand, also react chemically with the liquid metal alloy which serves to transfer the electrical current, which in turn renders the liquid metal alloy and gasket based on the magnetically conductive liquid unusable.
  • To prevent contact between the magnetically conductive liquid and the liquid metal alloy is therefore in the WO 2005/062432 A1 proposed to arrange any liquid which does not chemically react with the liquid metal alloy between the magnetically conductive liquid based seal and the liquid metal alloy.
  • the sealing element is designed as a sealing ring.
  • a design of the sealing element as a sealing ring, in particular in the form of a simmering, represents a common embodiment of the sealing element.
  • the rotary transformer has a pressure adjustment device for setting a barrier fluid pressure of the barrier fluid.
  • Commercially available liquid-sealing sealing elements can generally not completely prevent leakage of the barrier fluid from the rotary transformer, since the sealing element often, although distributed only in very small quantities and over a longer period of time, can leak out of the rotary joint sealing liquid.
  • a pressure adjusting device for setting a barrier fluid pressure of the barrier liquid In order to prevent the occurrence of a vacuum in the rotary transformer due to the presence a pressure adjusting device for setting a barrier fluid pressure of the barrier liquid of advantage.
  • the rotary transformer 1 has an electrically conductive, preferably stationary first element 6. Furthermore, the rotary transformer has a non-electrically conductive shaft 8 rotatably mounted by means of the bearings 12a and 12b. An electrically conductive second element 7 is rotatably connected to the shaft 8, so that the second element 7 rotates with the shaft. The second element 7 is thus arranged rotatably relative to the first element 6, wherein the first and the second element are arranged separated by a gap 9 from each other.
  • the rotary transformer thus serves to transmit an electrical current I 1 between the first element and the second element rotatably arranged with respect to the first element.
  • an electrical line 31 which is electrically conductively connected to the second element 7 and by the non-electrically conductive shaft 8 (shaft may consist of plastic) is guided, the current I 1 from the second element 7 to the outside.
  • the rotary transformer 1 To prevent contact of the liquid metal alloy 21 with gaseous oxygen from the ambient air of the rotary transformer, the rotary transformer 1 according to the invention a non-magnetically conductive and impermeable to gaseous oxygen barrier liquid 10, wherein the barrier liquid 10 between the liquid metal alloy 21 and one with the barrier liquid 10 in contact liquid-tight sealing element 13 is arranged.
  • the liquid-tight sealing element 13 (see FIG. 1 ) is within the scope of the embodiment in the form of a sealing ring, such as a Simmerring and prevents leakage of the barrier liquid 10 from the rotary transformer 1.
  • the sealing element 13 has a sealing lip 29, due to the curved shape of the sealing element 13 against the rotatably mounted Shaft 8 is pressed and thus leakage of the barrier liquid 10 to the bearing 12 a back and out of the rotary transformer 1 also prevented. It is important that by means of the sealing element 13 according to the invention only a seal against a liquid, but not more than in the prior art, a very good seal against gaseous oxygen must be realized.
  • Liquid-sealing sealing elements such as sealing rings, are mass-produced and therefore correspondingly very favorable in contrast to the so-called ferrofluid seals based on magnetically conductive liquids which are used in the prior art.
  • the sealing of the rotary transformer 1 to gaseous oxygen from ambient air is thus achieved in two stages according to the invention.
  • a gas-tight barrier of the liquid metal alloy to gaseous oxygen is realized and in a further stage, the flow of the barrier liquid 10 is prevented by a mmkeitsabêtnde seal.
  • the barrier liquid 10 ensures a gas-tight seal of the gap 9.
  • the sealing element 13 is indeed liquid-sealing, but not gas-tight.
  • the barrier liquid 10 is impermeable to gaseous oxygen, i. the barrier liquid 10 must have the property that no gaseous oxygen can diffuse through it. Distilled water as the barrier liquid 10 would be e.g. completely unsuitable, since this is permeable to gaseous oxygen, since gaseous oxygen can diffuse through the water and thus could come into contact with the liquid metal alloy 21. Thus, it is only very specific liquids which are impermeable to gaseous oxygen because of their molecular and / or atomic binding properties as barrier liquid.
  • Particularly suitable as a barrier liquid are oils.
  • the oil may e.g. in the form of paraffin oil or silicone oil or a mixture of paraffin oil and silicone oil.
  • the liquid metal alloy 21 and the barrier liquid 10 are arranged so as to be in contact with each other, providing a barrier liquid of a liquid in addition to the above-mentioned characteristics does not chemically react with the liquid metal alloy and does not mix with the liquid metal alloy.
  • the barrier liquid may have a different density to prevent mixing with the liquid metal alloy or having a different from the liquid metal alloy substance pairing (polar or non-polar).
  • Suitable barrier fluids are, as stated above, oils such as paraffin oils, silicone oils or a mixture of both oils.
  • the first and the second element may have a coating which repels the barrier liquid.
  • the further coating 23 can thus be designed, for example, such that it also simultaneously repels the barrier liquid 10 in addition to the liquid metal alloy 21.
  • the coating for repelling the barrier liquid may also be present in addition to the coating 22 and the further coating 23. In this way, penetration of the barrier liquid 10 into the gap 9 is prevented, thus preventing contact of the barrier liquid 10 with the liquid metal alloy 21.
  • the barrier liquid is not electrically conductive, which is given when using an oil as a barrier liquid, since then the structure of the rotary transformer can be made particularly simple.
  • the rotary transformer has a pressure adjusting device 15 which consists of an adjusting screw 16, a spring element 17 and a plunger 18. By turning the screw 16, the force can be adjusted, the spring 17 on the plunger 18 and thus exerts on the barrier liquid 10.
  • the rotary transformer still has some stationary housing parts 30.
  • the rotary transformer In the context of the embodiment of the rotary transformer is formed two channels, ie it can also transmit a further current I 2 , which in relation to the line of symmetry 3 in FIG. 1 is shown on the right side.
  • the two channels are galvanically separated from each other by the barrier liquid 11, which is identical to the barrier liquid 10.
  • a magnetically conductive substance is understood to be a ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic material. Accordingly, for the purposes of the invention, a diamagnetic substance or a paramagnetic substance is regarded as a non-magnetically conductive substance, wherein in particular a substance which has a relative permeability of 1 or less than 1, in the sense of the invention, is regarded as a non-magnetically conductive substance.
