Technical Field
The invention relates to a stator arrangement for an electromagnetic linear drive, in particular for an elevator installation, an elevator and/or a moving walkway, and is therefore included in the field of linear drives. The invention also relates to a corresponding elevator installation.
Background
Transportation facilities, in particular elevator vertical installations, escalators and moving walks without cable or chain drive systems, are sometimes equipped with electromagnetic linear drives which allow the elevator cars to be moved individually in a mutually independent manner on vertical and horizontal route sections, and the moving walkway pallets or escalator steps are conveyed individually along the route, instead of in interconnected chains. The electromagnetic linear drive here comprises at least one fixed linear stator, which is arranged in a plurality of parallel or consecutive stator segments, with separate stator coils or stator windings along a route, for example in an elevator shaft, and at least one linear rotor, which corresponds within the meaning of the invention to a car or a pallet.
Thus, the rotor will be considered herein rather than the car or pallet. The rotor is coupled with the stator arrangement or stator with a contactless but closest possible magnetic coupling in order to achieve the strongest possible force action of the motion field generated by the stator and to generate the strongest possible concentrated magnetic flux in the stator core and the rotor. Permanent magnet rotors are commonly used for this purpose, so that no electrical energy needs to be transmitted to the rotor and a static magnetic retention force can be achieved. It is therefore a so-called synchronous drive.
In many cases, various electrical components are required for supplying the stator coils with electrical energy and/or for the controlled delivery of the rotor, which electrical components must be arranged in and/or on the stator or the stator arrangement and connected to the stator coils. Accordingly, in some cases, it is necessary to fit a plurality of components in a limited space. Furthermore, failure and/or malfunction of the electrical components may lead to impairment of the mobility of the rotor and even failure of the position control of the rotor. In particular, in the worst case, failure of the electrical components and/or stator coils may lead to the risk of the rotor falling off with respect to the stator arrangement.
It is therefore desirable to provide a stator arrangement which allows a highly reliable operation and which allows a safe control of the rotor in case of a failure and/or malfunction of an electrical component.
Disclosure of Invention
According to the invention, a stator arrangement is proposed having the features of the independent claim. Advantageous configurations are the subject matter of the dependent claims and the following description.
A first aspect of the invention relates to a stator arrangement for an electromagnetic linear drive, wherein the stator arrangement comprises a plurality of stator coils, which are arranged in the longitudinal direction of the stator. The stator arrangement further includes a plurality of converters configured to supply electrical energy to at least a first stator coil and a second stator coil of the plurality of stator coils, respectively. In this case, at least one third stator coil of the plurality of stator coils, which is supplied with current by a different converter than the first and second stator coils, is arranged between the first and second stator coils.
Another aspect of the invention relates to an elevator installation with a stator arrangement according to the invention.
According to the invention, at least two stator coils are supplied with power by a converter. The invention provides the advantage that the number of converters to be provided can be reduced and does not have to correspond to the number of stator coils in the stator arrangement. In this way, the supply of electrical energy to the stator coils can be realized in a particularly space-saving and particularly cost-effective manner.
Considering that according to the invention the same converter supplies both stator coils with a further distance than with two directly adjacent stator coils, wherein at least one further stator coil is located at a further distance between the two stator coils, which further stator coil is not supplied by the same converter, the usability of the stator arrangement or the transport of the rotor is increased. In this way, it is achieved in particular that in the event of a defect and/or failure and/or malfunction of one converter, there is no functional failure in a plurality of directly adjacent stator coils. It is thus achieved instead that any stator coil which is functionally impaired, for example because it is no longer supplied with electrical energy, is surrounded by a functionally intact stator coil (provided that the further converter which supplies the adjacent stator coil does not fail). In particular, the stator arrangement may be configured such that in case of a functional failure in one power supply section, the operation of the stator arrangement may maintain at least the amount of time required for reliable positioning of the rotor and/or for repair of the stator arrangement or replacement of a defective converter.
The invention ensures that the rotor can still be moved by the stator in the event of a converter failure, and that the rotor can also cross the stator coils which are no longer subjected to a suitable supply of electrical energy due to the converter failure. In particular, the stator arrangement may be configured such that a respective adjoining stator coil adjoining a stator coil which is no longer subjected to a suitable supply of electrical energy at least partially and to a sufficient extent compensates for the function of the failed stator coil such that the rotor may continue to be moved by the stator arrangement. Alternatively, the stator arrangement may be configured such that in the event of failure of one converter and corresponding failure of two or more stator coils supplied with electrical energy during fault-free operation of the relevant supply section, the position of the rotor may be controlled such that a potentially imminent risk of at least the rotor falling out relative to the stator may be reliably prevented.
The stator arrangement preferably comprises a plurality of connecting elements configured to supply electrical energy to at least a first converter and a second converter of the plurality of converters, respectively. Thereby, the first converter and the second converter are configured to supply electric energy to the at least two stator coils, respectively. Furthermore, in this embodiment, all stator coils supplied with electrical energy via the same connecting element of the plurality of connecting elements constitute a first group of stator coils, wherein at least one further stator coil is arranged between any two stator coils from the first group of stator coils, which further stator coil is supplied with electrical energy via another connecting element of the plurality of connecting elements.
This offers the advantage that in the event of failure of one connecting element, two adjacent stator coils are not affected by the failure, but that between the two stator coils affected by the failure of the connecting element, a further stator coil is arranged which is not affected by the failure. Accordingly, even in the event of a failure of the connecting element, the operation of the stator arrangement can preferably be maintained and/or a failure of the propulsion force can be prevented.
The stator arrangement preferably comprises a plurality of supply sections, wherein each supply section comprises at least two supply parts from the number of the plurality of converters and the plurality of connection elements, and wherein all stator coils supplied with electrical energy via the same supply section constitute the second set of stator coils. At least one further stator coil is thus arranged between any two stator coils of the second group of stator coils, wherein the at least one further stator coil is supplied with power via a further supply section of the plurality of supply sections. In other words, the power supply part may comprise or may describe a converter and/or a connection element. In other words, the power supply section may preferably comprise a plurality of converters in particular. This offers the advantage that in the event of a failure of a supply section, a stator coil which is not directly adjacent is affected by the failure, while at least one further stator coil which is supplied by another supply section is arranged between the stator coils affected by the failure and is therefore not affected by a failure of the supply section. Thus, even in the event of failure of one power supply section, the operation of the stator arrangement can be maintained and/or the rotor can be prevented from falling out relative to the stator arrangement.
Preferably, the power supply sections can be individually mounted to and/or individually removed from the stator arrangement. It is particularly preferred if each power supply section is configured as a compact and/or closed unit. This offers the advantage that the constituent power supply components of the power supply section, i.e. the components (e.g. converters) which are particularly required for supplying electrical energy to the stator arrangement or the stator coils, are arranged in a compact form and can be arranged on or in the stator arrangement. This may reduce the complexity of manufacturing and/or assembly of the stator arrangement, for example. For example, this type of power supply section can already be completed in the factory and, therefore, during the construction of the elevator installation, the moving walkway and/or escalator can be installed in the stator arrangement or fitted to the load-bearing element in this assembled state.
This provides the further advantage that in case of a defect of a power supply section and/or in case of a defect of an individual power supply component arranged in a power supply section, the respective power supply section can be removed and/or replaced as a whole. In this way it is possible, for example, to reduce the necessary maintenance time and to limit the duration of any failure of the stator arrangement or of the elevator installation accordingly. Since the power supply section can preferably be removed separately from the carrier element, a reduction of the necessary complexity associated with the replacement of the power supply section can in particular be achieved, since it is not necessary to remove and/or disconnect any other power supply section that may not be damaged in order to allow the removal of the desired power supply section.
In particular, the plurality of power supply sections may preferably be arranged adjacent to each other or on top of each other along the longitudinal direction of the stator arrangement. The arrangement may be configured with regular or irregular spacing. Furthermore, the power supply sections may be configured in an arrangement in direct mutual contact along the longitudinal direction of the stator arrangement, or may be spaced apart from each other.
Preferably, each of the power supply sections comprises at least one converter of the plurality of converters. The converter may be configured, for example, to adapt the voltage to the requirements of the stator coils. For example, the converter may be configured to convert an alternating voltage to a direct voltage, or vice versa, or to modify the frequency of the alternating voltage. In particular, the converter preferably allows the function performed by the power supply section for supplying electrical energy to the stator coils to be powered by said power supply section. This provides the advantage that the converter can be configured in a compact arrangement in or together with the supply section.
Each of the power supply sections preferably comprises at least two converters. In particular, the converter may be configured to supply electrical energy to a plurality of non-adjacent stator coils. If the supply section comprises a plurality of converters, the number of non-adjacent stator coils supplied with power by one supply section is significantly increased. For example, if the supply section comprises two converters, and each of the two converters supplies electrical energy to two non-adjacent stator coils, the electrical energy may be supplied to four non-adjacent stator coils by one supply section. According to this embodiment, if a fault occurs in a supply section of this type, due to which one of the converters is functionally impaired, the result will be a failure of a non-adjacent stator coil supplied with electrical energy by said converter, i.e. a failure of two non-adjacent coils. If a fault occurs in a supply section of this type, as a result of which the entire supply section is impaired in its function, i.e. in particular the two converters of the supply section are impaired in their function, the result of this will be a failure of all the stator coils supplied with electrical energy by the supply section. However, since all stator coils affected by the failure are arranged at a distance from each other, and in particular other coils are arranged between the coils affected by the failure, the functionality of the stator arrangement can be at least partially maintained in this way.
It is particularly preferred that the at least one converter of the respective supply section is arranged at least partially away from a midpoint of the supply section in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the stator arrangement. In other words, the at least one converter is not arranged centrally in or on the supply section in a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, but rather laterally on the supply section. This may provide advantages in that, for example, cooling of the converter is facilitated if necessary, since the converter may be more easily accessible due to the side arrangement and/or may allow more efficient heat dissipation due to optionally arranging fewer other components around the converter. If the supply section comprises a plurality of converters, in particular two converters, these converters are preferably configured or arranged on opposite sides of the supply section. In particular, according to a further preferred form of embodiment, at least two converters may be arranged symmetrically on or in the supply section.
In this embodiment, the stator coils are preferably configured as magnetic coils and/or electromagnets. Specifically, the stator coils are configured to generate a magnetic field in response to excitation of the stator coils by a current flux. The stator coils are thereby preferably actuated such that they allow driving the rotor in the longitudinal direction of the stator. In particular, the stator coils are preferably arranged such that the stator coils define or constitute a track for at least one rotor, which rotor is movable along the track relative to the stator.
Preferably, at least a part of the power supply sections and preferably each power supply section comprises at least one sensor element configured to transmit a sensor signal in response to the presence of a rotor at a given position on the power supply section, wherein the rotor is movable relative to the stator arrangement. For example, the sensor element may be configured as a magnetic field sensor, such as a hall effect sensor. This provides the advantage that the sensor elements required for determining the presence and/or absence and/or position of the rotor relative to the stator arrangement need not be provided or arranged separately, but can be provided in combination with other components, in particular together with the respective supply section as an integral part of the supply section. Furthermore, the combination of the supply sections may comprise at least one further sensor element configured to detect the presence of and/or damage to errors and/or faults in the stator arrangement and/or the supply sections.
The stator arrangement is preferably oriented at least partially in a vertical direction and/or at least partially in a horizontal direction, wherein the longitudinal direction is parallel to the orientation of the stator arrangement. In other words, the longitudinal direction uniformly specifies the orientation direction of the sub-devices. The stator arrangement does not necessarily need to extend vertically, but may also extend, for example, at least partially horizontally. It is particularly preferred that a plurality of stator coils are arranged along the stator arrangement such that they constitute a track for a rotor which is movable relative to the stator arrangement.
The stator arrangement preferably comprises a plurality of power supply terminals, each of which is configured to supply electrical energy to at least one first and one second connection element of the plurality of connection elements, wherein all stator coils supplied with electrical energy via the same one of the plurality of power supply terminals constitute the second set of stator coils. At least one further stator coil is arranged between any two stator coils of the second set of stator coils, wherein the at least one further stator coil is supplied with power via another one of the plurality of power supply terminals (21). This offers the advantage that, in the event of a failure of the supply terminal, the stator coils which are not directly adjacent are affected by the failure, whereas at least one stator coil which is not affected by the failure of the supply terminal is arranged between the stator coils which are affected by the failure of the supply terminal. Accordingly, even in the event of failure of the power supply terminal, the operation of the stator device can be preferably maintained and/or the rotor can be prevented from falling off relative to the stator device. Specifically, each of the power supply terminals preferably includes at least two power supply lines. It is particularly preferred that the at least two supply lines constitute redundant means for supplying electrical energy to the supply terminals. This offers the advantage that in the event of failure of one of the supply lines, the supply of electrical energy or power can be maintained at least partially by means of the respective other supply line.
In a particularly preferred manner, the invention can be used in a multi-car elevator installation in which a plurality of rotors or cars in a hoistway are arranged to move in a mutually independent manner on top of each other and/or adjacent to each other. For example, a plurality of stators may be arranged adjacent to one another here, wherein preferably each stator is provided with a supply section.
