Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to switched reluctance machines and, more particularly, to the skewing of rotor and stator laminations in order to reduce acoustic noise generated by the machine.
- a switched reluctance machine is a brushless, synchronous machine having salient rotor and stator poles. There is a concentrated winding on each of the stator poles, but no windings or permanent magnets on the rotor. Each pair of diametrically opposite stator pole windings is connected in series or in parallel to form an independent machine phase winding of the multiphase SRM. Ideally, the flux entering the rotor from one stator pole balances the flux leaving the rotor from the diametrically opposite stator pole, so that there is no mutual magnetic coupling among the phases.
- Torque is produced by switching current in each phase winding in a predetermined sequence that is synchronized with angular position of the rotor. In this way, a magnetic force of attraction results between the rotor poles and the stator poles that are approaching each other. The current is switched off in each phase before the rotor poles nearest the stator poles of that phase rotate past the aligned position; otherwise, the magnetic force of attraction would produce a negative, or braking, torque.
- torque direction is independent of current direction. Therefore, in contrast to most other brushless machines which require bidirectional phase currents, a SMR power inverter can be configured to enable current flow ⁇ n only one direction through a phase winding.
- Such an inverter generally employs one or more switching devices, such as transistors or thyristors, in series with each machine phase winding.
- switching devices such as transistors or thyristors
- Exemplary SRM converters are illustrated in commonly assigned U.S. Patent No. 4,684,867, issued to T.J.E. Miller on August 4, 1987, which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- a SRM operates by switching the machine phase currents on and off in synchronism with rotor position. That is, by properly positioning the firing pulses relative to rotor angle, forward or reverse operation and motoring or generating operation can be obtained.
- the desired phase current commutation is achieved by feeding backthe rotor position signal to a controller from a shaft angle transducer, e.g., an encoder or a resolver.
- a SRM is typically noisy. In large part, this is due to the "ovaling" of the stator during machine operation.
- an object of the present invention is to reduce the "ovaling" effect of an SRM stator as it rotates, thereby reducing the acoustic noise generated during SRM operation.
- the laminations respectively comprising the rotor and stator poles of a SRM are skewed as they are stacked during machine assembly.
- the electromagnetic force of attraction between the rotor poles and the stator poles of each energized phase is spread out, thereby reducing the tendency of the SRM to assume an oval shape during machine operation. In this way, the acoustic noise generated by the j
- Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of a typical SRM rotor and stator 10 configuration
- Figure 2 is a cross sectional view of a rotor and stator of a SRM, the rotor and stator each having skewed laminations in accordance with the present invention.
- Figure 1 is a cross sectional view of a stator 10 and a rotor 12 of a typical switched reluctance machine (SRM) 14.

- Rotor 12 of SRM 14 is rotatable in either a forward or reverse direction within stationary stator 10.
- Rotor 12 has two pairs of diametrically opposite rotor poles
- Stator 10 has three pairs of diametrically
- stator pole coil windings 26a and 26b are shown as being wound only about stator poles 20a and 20b, respectively; however, it is to be understood that stator pole coil windings would generally be wound
- the current I in each phase produces a magnetic flux linkage by generating flux in the directions indicated by arrows 28 and 30.
- windings 26a and 26b are connected in series so that the current I flows in the direction indicated.
- the electromagnetic force of attraction between the rotor poles and the stator poles of each energized phase causes the stator "ovaling" phenomena described hereinabove, resulting in noisy SRM operation.
- FIG. 2 illustrates a SRM 114 according to the present invention having skewed rotor laminations 40 comprising rotor poles 116a, 116b,
- stator laminations 50 comprising stator poles 120a, 120b, 122a, 122b, 124a and 124b.
- the laminations of each stator poles and each rotor pole are arranged in a fan-like manner so as to spread out each respective pole.
- acoustic noise generated by the SRM is substantially reduced.
- only the stator pole laminations are skewed to reduce acoustic noise.
- SRM 114 is shown in Figure 2 as having three-phases with six stator poles and four rotor poles, it is to be understood that the principles of the present invention apply to a SRM having any number of phases and also to any suitable combination of stator and rotor poles. While the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described herein, it will be obvious that such embodiments are provided by way of example only. Numerous variations, changes and substitutions will occur to those of skill in the art without departing from the invention herein. Accordingly, it is intended that the invention be limited only by the spirit and scope of the appended claims.

Abstract
Les tôles (40, 50) comprenant respectivement les pôles de rotor et de stator (116a, 116b, 118a, 118b, 120a, 120b, 124a, 124b) d'une machine à réluctance commutée (SRM) (114) sont positionnées en biais tandis qu'elles sont empilées pendant le montage de la machine afin de réduire la tendance de la SRM (114) à s'aplatir et donc à prendre une forme ovale pendant le fonctionnement de la machine. Il en résulte que le bruit acoustique produit par la SRM (114) pendant le fonctionnement de la machine est considérablement réduit.
