- the annular unit 50 faces the stator 20 with an outer air gap G1 therebetween, and faces the magnet rotor 10 with an inner air gap G2 therebetween (it is therefore understood that an outer air gap G1 is interposed between the pole pieces 55 and the stator 20, and an inner air gap G2 is interposed between the pole pieces 55 and the magnet rotor 10).

- the pole piece connecting portion 41 and the separate pole piece connecting portion 44 are provided with a connecting portion ventilation passage 421 and a separate connecting portion ventilation passage 441 that communicate with the pole piece ventilation passage 56 (see FIG. 3). Both the connecting portion ventilation passage 421 and the separate connecting portion ventilation passage 441 are holes that are open in the axial direction. In the example of FIG.

- FIG. 3 Overview of the cooling structure of the magnetic geared electric machine 1 3 is a schematic diagram showing the inside of the housing 98 of the magnetic geared electric machine 1 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.
- Heat is generated inside the housing 98 due to various reasons including copper loss in the coil 27, iron loss in the stator magnet 29 (not shown in FIG. 3), iron loss in the pole piece 55, and iron loss in the rotor magnet 19. Therefore, the magnetic geared electric machine 1 of the present disclosure includes a fan 60 fixed to the rotating shaft 80 as a component for cooling the inside of the housing 98.
- the fan 60 illustrated in the figure is disposed on the opposite side of the separate pole piece connection part 44 with respect to the magnet rotor 10, and as a more detailed example, is disposed on one side in the axial direction of the pole piece connection part 41. Note that the present disclosure is not limited to the fan 60 being fixed to the rotating shaft 80 (details will be described later).
- the housing 98 of the present disclosure is a sealed housing, and includes an inner housing 94 that houses the stator 20, the pole piece rotor 30, and the magnet rotor 10 in a sealed state. Cooling air circulates in the inner housing 94.
- the fan 60 at least a part of which is disposed in the sealed space of the inner housing 94, rotates together with the rotating shaft 80, the cooling air flows from the other side to one side in the axial direction in each of the outer air gap G1 and the inner air gap G2 (arrows A and B).
- the cooling air flows from the other side to one side in the axial direction in each of the outer air gap G1 and the inner air gap G2 (arrows A and B).
- the stator 20 the pole piece rotor 30, or the magnet rotor 10 is cooled by the cooling air.
- the cooling air then flows from one side to the other side in the axial direction through a return path 92 formed radially outward from the stator 20 in the sealed space of the inner housing 94 (arrow C).
- the return path 92 is formed over the entire circumferential length of the magnetic geared electric machine 1.
- the cooling air may flow through a ventilation passage other than the outer air gap G1 and the inner air gap G2.
- the cooling air may flow from the other axial side to one side through the separate connecting part ventilation passage 441, the pole piece ventilation passage 56, and the connecting part ventilation passage 421 (arrow D).
- the cooling air may flow to one axial side in at least one of the rotor ventilation passage 16 or the rotor regulation ventilation passage 18 (not shown in FIG. 3) (arrow E).
- the cooling air that has flowed through these ventilation passages also circulates through the return passage 92.
- the inner housing 94 may include a housing ventilation passage 941 that is open in the axial direction on one axial side of the stator 20.
- the housing ventilation passage 941 in this example is formed in a housing extension portion 942 that extends radially on one axial side of the stator 20 (the housing extension portion 942 is a component of the inner housing 94).
- the provision of the housing ventilation passage 941 promotes the circulation of cooling air in the inner housing 94.
- the housing 98 may further include an outer housing 95 that accommodates the inner housing 94.
- the outer housing 95 is an open-type housing 98, and the inner space of the outer housing 95 is connected to the external space of the magnetic geared electric machine 1.
- a part of the fan 60 is disposed in the inner space of the outer housing 95.
- the temperature of the cooling air circulating in the inner housing 94 is reduced by heat exchange between the cooling air (circulating air) flowing through the return passage 92 and the cooling air (external air) flowing through the outer ventilation passage 97.
- the outer ventilation passage 97 of the outer housing 95 may be disposed adjacent to the return passage 92 in the circumferential direction instead of being disposed adjacent to the return passage 92 in the radial direction.
- the housing 98 may not include the outer housing 95.
- the inner housing 94 may also be an open-type housing including a communication port that communicates with an external space such as a duct. In this case, the fan 60 does not need to be fixed to the rotating shaft 80, and for example, the fan 60 may be attached to the outside of the inner housing 94. Then, the rotation of the fan 60 allows cooling air to flow into the inner housing 94 through the communication port.
- FIG. 4 is a partially enlarged view of FIG. 3.
- the pole piece connecting portion 41A (41) illustrated in the figure includes a ring portion 141A (141) connected to one end of the annular unit 50 (see FIG. 2) in the axial direction, a radial extending portion 142A (142) extending radially inward from the ring portion 141A, and an axial extending portion 144A (144) extending axially from the radial extending portion 142A.
- the ring portion 141A (141) is ring-shaped and faces the annular unit 50 in the axial direction over the entire circumferential length of the annular unit 50.
- the above-mentioned connecting portion ventilation passage 421A (421) is formed in the ring portion 141A (141).
- the axial extending portion 144A is disposed radially inward from the housing extending portion 942.
- the magnetic geared electric machine 1 further includes a first bearing 71 as an object to be cooled.
- the first bearing 71 is connected to the housing 98 and the pole piece connection portion 41, and as a more detailed example, is connected to the housing extension portion 942 and the axial extension portion 144A (144).
- the first bearing 71 is positioned so that it is exposed to cooling air that may flow through, for example, the outer air gap G1 or the inner air gap G2. Therefore, it is understood that the fan 60 described above is configured to send cooling air to the first bearing 71.
- the cooling air may cool the first bearing 71 by hitting the housing extension portion 942. This is because the first bearing 71 is cooled through the cooling of the housing extension portion 942.
- the cooling air when a configuration is adopted in which the cooling air flows from the other axial side to one side in the inner air gap G2 or the outer air gap G1, the cooling air receives heat from at least one of the pole piece rotor 30, the stator 20, or the magnet rotor 10 before reaching the first bearing 71. Therefore, the temperature of the cooling air that reaches the first bearing 71 is relatively high, and there is a risk that the first bearing 71, which has a relatively low heat resistance temperature, is not sufficiently cooled. Therefore, in the present disclosure, at least a part of the first bearing 71 is located radially outward from the inner circumferential surface 155 of the pole piece 55 and radially inward from the stator 20.
- the cooling air flowing through the outer air gap G1 is likely to hit the first bearing 71 or the housing extension 942, and the cooling of the first bearing 71 is promoted.
- a magnetic geared electric machine 1 is realized that can suppress the temperature rise of the first bearing 71, which is an example of a bearing housed inside the housing 98.
- first bearing arrangement in which at least a portion of the first bearing 71 is located radially outward from the inner circumferential surface 155 of the pole piece 55 and radially inward from the stator 20 is referred to as the "first bearing arrangement.”
- first bearing arrangement is assumed (however, at least one of the configurations illustrated in Figures 3 to 6B may be applied to the "second bearing arrangement” described below).
- the entire first bearing 71 is located radially inward of the stator 20.
- the first bearing 71 can be located radially away from the stator 20, which tends to experience a large temperature rise due to heat generated by, for example, energization of the coil 27, and therefore the cooling effect of the first bearing 71 can be improved.
- the stator 20 can be prevented from interfering with work in at least one of the assembly process and disassembly process of the magnetic geared electric machine 1. Therefore, at least one of the assembly process and disassembly process of the magnetic geared electric machine 1 can be simplified.
- first bearing 71 may be located radially outward from the stator 20. Even in this case, a portion of the first bearing 71 is aligned with the outer air gap G1 in the axial direction, and the cooling air flowing through the outer air gap G1 is likely to hit the first bearing 71, so that a cooling effect for the first bearing 71 can be expected.
- At least a portion of the first bearing 71 (a part of the first bearing 71 in the example of the figure) is located radially outward from the outer circumferential surface 154 of the pole piece 55.
- at least a portion of the first bearing 71 is axially aligned with the outer air gap G1, so that the cooling air flowing through the outer air gap G1 is more likely to come into contact with the first bearing 71, and the magnetic geared electric machine 1 can improve the cooling effect of the first bearing 71.
- a portion of the first bearing 71 is located radially outward from the inner circumferential surface 155 of the pole piece 55 and radially inward from the stator 20. Another portion of the first bearing 71 is located radially inward from the outer circumferential surface 11 of the magnet rotor 10.
- the outer circumferential surface 11 of the pole piece rotor 30 illustrated in FIG. 3 is the outer circumferential surface of the rotor yoke 15, but the present disclosure is not limited thereto, and the outer circumferential surface 11 may be the outer circumferential surface of the rotor magnet 19.
- the magnetic geared electric machine 1 can improve the cooling effect of the first bearing 71.
- the radially extending portion 142A (142) of the pole piece connecting portion 41A (41) is provided with a connecting portion axial flow passage 149, which is a hole opened in the axial direction.
- a connecting portion axial flow passage 149 may be provided at intervals in the circumferential direction. As a result, the cooling air can easily reach the first bearing 71.
- the connecting portion axial flow passage 149 is located radially outward from the outer circumferential surface 11 of the magnet rotor 10 and radially inward from the inner circumferential surface 155 of the pole piece 55.
- the connecting portion axial flow passage 149 and the inner air gap G2 are aligned in the axial direction, so that the cooling air that flows through the inner air gap G2 can easily reach the first bearing 71 via the connecting portion axial flow passage 149.
- the present disclosure is not limited to the radial extension portion 142A (142) being provided with the connecting portion axial flow passage 149.
- the radial extension portion 142A may be columnar, and a plurality of radial extension portions 142A may be arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction. In this case, even if the radial extension portion 142A is solid, the cooling air can pass through a gap formed between two radial extension portions 142A adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction, so that the cooling air can easily reach the first bearing 71.
- the axial extension portion 144A (144) illustrated in FIG. 4 has an axial flow passage 240A (240), which is a hole that is open in the axial direction.
- the axial flow passage 240A illustrated in the same figure is disposed radially inward of the connecting portion axial flow passage 149. Cooling air can flow into the axial flow passage 240A, and the cooling air discharged from the axial flow passage 240A flows into the return path 92 (see FIG. 3). According to the above configuration, the cooling air flowing through the axial flow passage 240 can cool the first bearing 71 by cooling the axial extension portion 144. This improves the cooling effect of the first bearing 71.
- a second bearing 72 is further provided, which is connected to the rotating shaft 80 and the axial extension portion 144A (144).
- the second bearing 72 is disposed on one side of the pole piece rotor 30 in the axial direction, and is disposed at the same axial position as the first bearing 71.
- the second bearing 72 is a bearing separate from the first bearing 71.
- the cooling air flowing through the axial flow passage 240A (240) of the axial extension portion 144A (144) can cool not only the first bearing 71 but also the second bearing 72.
- the axial extension portion 144A (144) is formed of an anisotropic heat conductive material having a higher thermal conductivity in the axial direction than in the radial direction.
- the thermal conductivity in the axial direction is 100 times or more higher than the thermal conductivity in the radial direction.
- the anisotropic heat conductive material is, for example, graphene.
- the rotating shaft 80 connected to the second bearing 72 is also formed of an anisotropic thermally conductive material whose thermal conductivity in the axial direction is higher than its thermal conductivity in the radial direction.

図1A、図1Bは、本開示の幾つかの実施形態に係る磁気ギヤード電気機械1A,1B(1)の概略図である。以下の説明においては、「軸方向」は磁気ギヤード電気機械1の軸線に平行な方向であり、「径方向」は磁気ギヤード電気機械1の軸線を基準とした径方向であり、「周方向」は磁気ギヤード電気機械1の軸線を基準とした周方向である。磁気ギヤード電気機械1は回転軸80を備え、回転軸80の軸線は磁気ギヤード電気機械1の軸線と一致する。また、磁気ギヤード電気機械1は外部回転機器7の動力伝達軸8に連結されている。回転軸80は図1A、図1Bで例示されるような中実であってもよいし、動力伝達軸8を収容する円筒形状であってもよい(図3参照)。
図2は、本開示の一実施形態に係る磁気ギヤード電気機械1の内部構造を示す概略図である。磁極片回転子30は、複数の磁極片55および複数の非磁性体52を含む環状ユニット50を備える。各磁極片55と各非磁性体52はいずれも軸方向に延在する。また、複数の磁極片55と複数の非磁性体52は周方向に交互に並ぶ。本例の各磁極片55は、軸方向に積層された複数の電磁鋼板によって形成される。他の例に係る各磁極片55は、複数の圧粉磁心によって形成されてもよいし、複数の電磁鋼板と複数の圧粉磁心との組み合わせによって形成されてもよい。
図3は、本開示の一実施形態に係る磁気ギヤード電気機械1のハウジング98の内部を示す概略図である。コイル27における銅損、固定子磁石29(図3では不図示)における鉄損、磁極片55における鉄損、および、回転子磁石19における鉄損を含む種々の理由に起因して、ハウジング98の内部では熱が発生する。そこで本開示の磁気ギヤード電気機械1は、ハウジング98の内部を冷却するための構成要素として、回転軸80に固定されたファン60を備える。同図で例示されるファン60は、磁石回転子10に対して別磁極片連結部44とは反対側に配置されており、より詳細な一例として磁極片連結部41よりも軸方向の一方側に配置される。なお、本開示はファン60が回転軸80に固定されることに限定されない(詳細は後述する)。
図4を参照し、ハウジング98の内部の冷却対象物の詳細を例示する。図4は、図3の部分拡大図である。同図で例示される磁極片連結部41A(41)は、環状ユニット50(図2参照)の軸方向における一方側の端部に連結されるリング部141A(141)と、リング部141Aから径方向の内側へ延在する径方向延在部142A(142)と、径方向延在部142Aから軸方向の一方側へ延在する軸方向延在部144A(144)を含む。リング部141A(141)は、環状ユニット50の周方向の全長に亘って、環状ユニット50と軸方向に対向するリング状である。そして、上述の連結部通風路421A(421)はリング部141A(141)に形成される。軸方向延在部144Aはハウジング延在部942よりも径方向内側に配置される。
なお、第1ベアリング71の一部は、固定子20よりも径方向の外側に位置してもよい。この場合であっても、第1ベアリング71の一部は外側エアギャップG1と軸方向に並び、外側エアギャップG1を流れる冷却空気は第1ベアリング71に当たり易いので、第1ベアリング71の冷却効果が期待できる。
但し、径方向延在部142A(142)に連結部軸方向流路149が設けられることに本開示は限定されない。例えば、径方向延在部142Aが柱状であり、複数の径方向延在部142Aが周方向に間隔を空けて配置されてもよい。この場合、径方向延在部142Aがたとえ中実であっても、周方向に隣接する2つの径方向延在部142Aの間に形成される隙間を冷却空気が通過することができるので、冷却空気の第1ベアリング71への到達は容易になる。
図5は、他の実施形態に係る磁極片連結部41B(41)を示す概略図である。磁極片連結部41Bは、軸方向延在部144Aに代えて軸方向延在部144Bを含む点で、磁極片連結部41Aとは異なる。軸方向延在部144B(144)は、軸方向流路240B(240)を囲む円筒状の側壁241を有する。軸方向流路240Bは側壁241の内周面である流路内壁面242を有し、流路内壁面242には、凸部245または凹部246の少なくとも一方が形成される。凸部245および凹部246は側壁241の円周方向に延在する。同図の例では、軸方向に並ぶ複数の凸部245と、軸方向に並ぶ複数の凹部246とが形成されているが本開示はこれに限定されない。例えば、複数の凸部245は流路内壁面242に形成されていなくてもよいし、あるいは、複数の凹部246は流路内壁面242に形成されていなくてもよい。また、凸部245と凹部246のそれぞれの個数は、2以上であってもよいし、単数であってもよい。また、凸部245および凹部246が側壁241の円周方向に延在することに本開示は限定されない。例えば、凸部245および凹部246は軸方向に延在していてもよい。
図4に戻り、本開示の一実施形態に係る回転軸80A(80)の構成を説明する。図4で例示される回転軸80Aは、軸外周面85、および、軸内部流路88を有する。軸内部流路88は、第2ベアリング72と磁石回転子10との間で軸外周面85に形成された第1開口81と、第2ベアリング72を挟んで第1開口81とは反対側で軸外周面85に形成された第2開口82とを有する。そして、軸内部流路88は、軸外周面85よりも径方向の内側で第1開口81と第2開口82とを繋ぎ、冷却空気の通風路を形成する。軸内部流路88は、周方向に間隔を空けて配置される複数の流路であってもよい。
図5~図7を参照し、他の実施形態に係る回転軸80B(80)を説明する。
図7、図8は、本開示の幾つかの実施形態に係る第2のベアリング配置構造を示す概略図である。第2のベアリング配置構造では、第1ベアリング71が磁極片55よりも径方向の内側に配置されており、より詳細な一例として、第1ベアリング71の少なくとも一部は磁石回転子10の外周面11よりも径方向の内側に配置される。同図で例示される磁極片55は磁極片通風路56を有する。以下の第2のベアリング配置構造の説明では、第1のベアリング配置構造と重複する構成の一部または全部の説明を省略する。
