Abstract

In order to achieve, in the case of a bistable electromagnetic actuating device 2, high effective switching forces and short switching times with a relatively low-power magnet coil and permanent magnet arrangement, the device 2 is provided with two permanent magnets 22, 24 opposingly poled in the switching direction of the magnet armature 32 and which act in each case by way of a magnet gap 50 or 52 respectively, closing in the end position of the magnet armature 8, on the magnet armature, in which respect both magnet gaps 50, 52 are arranged in the magnetic main flux path of the magnet coils 18, 20, so that upon energisation of the corresponding magnet coil the magnetic flux at the opened magnet gap 50 on that part of the permanent magnet 22 lying in the switching direction is increased to the extent that, at the closed magnet gap 52 on the part of the other permanent magnet 24, the permanent magnet field and thus the retaining force opposing the switch-over is reduced to nil. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Bistable electromagnetic actuating device This invention relates to bistable electromagnetic acutating devices, more especially for shut-off valves.
Known actuating devices of this kind have, relative to the achievable switching forces or times respectively, a high power requirement and need relatively strong electro-magnet and permanent magnet arrangements. This means that the known devices are only limitedly suitable for instances of use where, besides a minimum peak current consumption, a spacesaving and above all weight-wise light mode of construction is required, for example shutoff valves for vehicles in space travel.
The task of the invention is to improve the known actuating devices to the extent that, related to their effective switching force or speed respectively, a considerable reduction of structural weight and size as well as of the current consumption results.
This task is achieved by the present invention in that there is provided a bistable electromagnetic actuating device, more especially for a shut-off valve, comprising a switching member which can be changed over between its end positions by a magnet coil arrangement of reversible polarity and a permanent magnet arrangement which holds the switching member in the respective end position, characterised in that the permanent magnet arrangement contains two permanent magnets which are spaced apart from one another in the direction of movement of the switching member and which are arranged poled opposingly to one another in the main flux path of the magnetic coil arrangement.
In accordance with the invention, by reason of the special arrangement and mutual alignment of the permanent magnets in the magnet-coil main flux path it is ensured that upon energisation of the magnet coil arrangement the magnetic flux on the part of the permanent magnet lying in each case in the switch-over direction increases to the same extent as the retaining force, opposing the switch-over, of the other permanent magnet is reduced.As a result of this opposingly equal field strength change at the two permanent magnets, precisely also in the initial phase of the switch over procedure which is crucial for the peak current consumption, a quite considerable rise in the switching force acting on the switching member is achieved, so that the actuating device in accordance with the invention satisfies the demands for a bistable switching behaviour with high usable actuating forces and/or switching speeds in an outstanding manner and nevertheless makes do with a very low-power magnet coil and permanent magnet arrangement of low structural volume and weight.
In many instances of use the actuating force which is needed for the switch-over of the mechanism connected subsequently to the actuating device is dependent on the switching direction, for instance when the actuating device is used for a shut-off valve which is locked hydraulically in the closure position it needs a higher actuating force for the opening than for the closing. In this case the two permanent magnets have, in a particularly preferred aspect of the present invention, retaining forces of different magnitudes, in such a way that the permanent magnet which holds the switching member in that end position out of which a switch over has to be effected with the higher actuating force.In other words in the case of a shut-off valve locked hydraulically in the closure position the closure position permanent magnet has the greater field intensity and/or as a result of appropriate dimensioning of the magnetic conductivity, has a stronger magnetic flux than the oppositely-acting permanent magnet.Because, in the case of the actuating device in accordance with the invention, by reason of the special magnetic flux control by energisation of the magnet coil arrangement the magnetic flux, acting in each case in the switching direction, on the part of the one permanent magnet increases simultaneously and to the same extent as the opposing magnetic field, holding the switching member in the respective end position, of the other permanent magnet is caused to disappear, such a one-sidedly higher design of one of the permanent magnets brings about a corresponding growth in switching force in the direction of the end position opposite to this permanent magnet.
Therefore, there is achieved in an extremely simple way and along with further reduction in the electrical power requirement an asymmetrical switching-force control adapted to the respective instance of use. In other words in the case of the said shut-off valve by a stronger design of the closure-position permanent magnet the switching force effective upon the opening of the valve is increased unilaterally or one-sidedly.
A further material aspect of the present invention consists is that the switching member advantageously consists in two-part manner of a magnet armature and an actuating element which is connected resiliently to the magnetic armature in the direction of movement of the switching member and which brings about the switch-over of the mechanism which is connected subsequently to the actuating device, in other words more especially of the said shut-off valve.This limitedly resilient (spurious) coupling is based on the reflection that the magnetic force acting in the switching direction with increasing proximity of the switching member to the new end position automatically, i.e. without increase of the circulation of the magnet coil arrange ment, grows exponentially and the otherwise customary power requirement peaks which are needed by the actuating device upon rigid coupling-up to the subsequently-connected mechanism (shut-off valve) can be reduced to a considerable extent in that the actuating device - precisely by reason of the limited idle stroke present in the switching member in the initial phase of the switch-over procedure remains relieved of the actuating force for the subsequently-connected mechanism until the switching-effective magnetic force also without an increase in the current consumption of the magnet-coil arrangement has reached a threshold value - predetermined by the movement play in the switching member. This leads to a further quite considerable improvement with respect to power consumption as well as to the structural size and weight of the actuating device, more especially in those cases where a strong actuating force has to be applied, for the subsequently-arranged (subordinated) mechanism, for instance where a hydraulically locked shut-off valve has to be actuated.
In accordance with a further aspect of the present invention, the permanent magnets are preferably fastened to the ends of the magnet coil arrangement and are sealed off hermetically jointly with this towards the switching member, which offers a very favourable arrangement and, if the switching member operates in aggressive media, above all also a reliable protection of the permanent magnets and magnet coils.
The invention will be described further, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawing, in which: Figure 1 is a schematic sectional elevation of a preferred embodiment of the actuating mechanism with a subsequently arranged shut-off valve; and Figure 2 is a highly schematised magnetic flux diagram of the magnetic coil and permanent magnet arrangement of the preferred mechanism of Fig. 1.
As illustrated in Fig. 1 the preferred actuating device 2 and a shut-off valve 4 which the device 2 actuates are accommodated jointly in a multi-part, partially bolted, partially welded housing 6 of high magnetic conductivity. The actuating device 2 comprises, as main constituent parts, a switching member 8 which is guided displaceably in a cylindrical housing bush 10 between end positions defined by housing-fast stop surfaces 1 2 or 14 respectively, an annular magnet coil arrangement 1 6 of reversible polarity with an outer magnet coil 1 8 which is energised for the switch-over of the switching member 8 into the lower end position corresponding to the valve closure position, and an inner magnet coil 20 which switches the switching member 8 over into the valve opening position.The device 2 further comprises two annular permanent magnets 22, 24 which are arranged opposingly poled in the direction of movement of the switching member 8 and which are fastened to the ends of the magnet coil arrangement 1 6 at the level of the stop surfaces 1 2 or 14 respectively.
Towards the switching member 8 the permanent magnets 22 and 24 are masked on their inside in each case by a magnetically conductive bush portion 26 or 28 which is connected to the housing parts carrying the stop surfaces 1 2 or 14 respectively, whilst the middle part 30, lying therebetween, of the housing bush 10 consists of a material of low magnetic conductivity. Instead of this, however, there may be a free annular gap between the bush portions 26 and 28.
The switching member 8 consists of a magnet armature which is guided so as to be axially displaceable in the housing bush 10, and an actuating element 36 which is coupled in a limitedly moveable manner with this in the axial direction along with interpolation of a compression spring 34 and which forms the valve tappet of the shut-off valve 4 and carries at its lower end an elastomeric seal 40 which co-operates with valve seat 38. A pressuremedium channel 44 extending from an intake chamber 42 by way of the actuating element 36 to the upper side of the magnet armature 32 serves for the hydaulic locking of the valve 4 in the closure position, out of which the actuating element 36 is moved by the magnet armature 32 only when this has removed itself from its lower end position by the movement play 46 present between the magnet armature 32 and the actuating element 36.
The retaining force opposing, by reason of the hydraulic locking, a switch-over of the valve 4 must consequently first be overcome after run-through of a predetermined end-position idle stroke of the magnet armature 32, so that the actuating device 2 is relieved in the initial phase of the switch-over procedure until the magnetic force acting on the magnet armature 32 in the switching direction has reached a threshold value which is dependent upon the magnitude of the permitted movement play 46.
In order to avoid excessive magnetic adhesion of the magnet armature 32 in the respective end position against the stop surface 1 2 or 14 respectively, a very thin-walled covering 48 of low magnetic conductivity, for example a chromium covering, can be applied to the end faces of the magnet armature 32, so that a variable magnetic gap 50 or 52 respectively which is provided between the armature end surface and the facing housing surface 12, 14 has a minimum - even if very slight - gap width (of some hundredths of a millimetre), as is indicated in a highly exaggerated manner in Fig. 1 in the lower magnet armature position for the magnetic gap 52.
To explain the switching behaviour of the actuating mechanism reference is made to Fig. 2, in which the inner magnetic field loops of the axially oppositely polarised permanent magnets 22 and 24 is shown in a highly schematised manner in continuous lines and the main flux path of the magnet coils 1 8, 20 is shown in broken lines. So long as no coil current flows in the lower end position of the magnet armature 32, the magnetic flux and consequently the force of attraction is greatest at the magnetic gap 52 which has the minimum gap width (almost nil). Thus the magnet armature 32 remains locked in this end position by the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 24.The magnetic main flux path which arises upon the passage of current through the magnet coil 20 and which permeates the magnet armature 32 in the axial direction is at the gap 50 equidirectional with the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 22, but at the gap 52 is opposed to the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 24, as is indicated by the direction arrows in Fig.
2. Therefore, upon energisation of the coil 20 the overall magentic flux at the gap 52 is caused to disappear, whilst at the same time the magnetic flux at the gap 50 increases. If the force of attraction at the gap 50 becomes sufficiently great, the magnet armature 32 initially runs through the idle stroke path which is predetermined by the movement play 46 and along which the force of attraction at the gap 50 rises exponentially as a result of the reducing gap width, and then entrains the actuating element 36, along with overcoming the hydraulic locking force, into the upper end position, so that the valve 4 is fully opened.
Since now the gap width at the upper magnet gap 50 is reduced to almost nil, the magnet coil 20 can be switched off and the magnet armature 32 remains held in the upper end position. In a corresponding manner the valve 4 is switched over by a current pulse onto the magnet coil 1 8 into the closure position.
A one-sidedly asymmetric switching force control which is dependent on the switching direction, in such a way that the usable actuating force of the switching member 8 upon the opening of the valve 4 in view of the hydraulic closure-position locking then to be overcome lies higher than upon the closure, is achieved in that the closure-position permanent magnet 24 is designed for a higher magnetic retaining force than the permanent magnet 22, for which either the magnetic field intensity or - as shown - the magnetic flux on the part of the permanent magnet 24 is, with the aid of an additional ring disc 54 of high magnetic conductivity, dimensioned so as to be one-sidedly higher.Therefore, by reason of the above-explained effective connection, in the lower end position the magnetic flux, rising upon energisation of the coil 20 up to the disappearance of the retaining force of the permanent magnet 24, reaches in the region of the magnet gap 50, crucial for the force of attraction acting in the opening direction, a higher value than conversely the magnetic flux induced in the upper end position of the coil 1 8 at the then fully opened magnet gap 52, i.e. the switching force effectively active at the switching member 8 upon energisation of the magnet coil arrangement 1 6 is in the opening direction one-sidedly higher than in the closure direction.
For protection against aggressive media which pass by way of the shut-off valve 4 into the switching chamber of the switching member 8, the magnet coil and permanent magnet arrangement 16, 22, 24 is hermetically sealed, for instance by a casting composition towards the switching chamber as is indicated in Fig. 1 by the dot-dash lines.
