DC motor called an electric machine in which the excitation winding is located on the cores of the poles and is powered by direct current.

Design

The magnetic flux passes from the north pole N through the armature to the south pole S and from it through the yoke again to the north pole. The cores of the poles and the yoke are also made of ferromagnetic materials. The DC electric machine consists of two main parts:

  • fixed part (inductor);
  • rotating part (anchor with drum winding).

On fig. 16.1 shows a structural diagram of a DC machine.

Rice. 16.1. Structural scheme of direct current.

The inductor consists of a cylindrical frame 1 made of ferromagnetic material and poles with an excitation winding 2 fixed on the frame. The excitation winding creates the main magnetic flux.

The magnetic flux can be created by permanent magnets mounted on the frame. The armature consists of the following elements: core 3, winding 4, laid in the grooves of the core, collector 5.

To reduce the losses of the DC machine to the vortex points, the armature core is assembled from sheets of electrical steel isolated from each other.

Consider the operation of a DC machine on a model (Fig. 16.2), where 1 are the poles of the inductor, 2 are the armature, 3 are conductors, 4 are contact brushes.

DC motors
Rice. 16.2. DC machine model

The conductors of the armature winding are located on the surface of the armature. Contact brushes are placed on the lines of the geometric neutral, drawn in the middle between the poles. The armature of the machine rotates in the direction indicated by the arrow. The direction of the EMF induced in the conductors of the armature winding is determined by the right hand rule.

On fig. 16.2, the cross indicates the EMF directed from us, the dots indicate the EMF directed towards us. The conductors are interconnected so that the EMF in them is added. For this, the end of the conductor located in the zone of one pole is connected in series with the end of the conductor located in the zone of the pole of opposite polarity.

Two conductors connected in series form one turn or one coil. The EMF of conductors located in the zone of one pole is different in magnitude. The greatest EMF is induced in the conductor located under the middle of the pole, the EMF equal to zero - in the conductor located on the geometric neutral line. If all the winding conductors are connected in series according to a certain rule, then the resulting EMF of the armature winding is zero, there is no current in the winding. Contact brushes divide the armature winding into two parallel branches. In the upper parallel branch, an EMF of one direction is induced, in the lower parallel branch, in the opposite direction. The EMF removed by the contact brushes is equal to the sum of the electromotive forces of the conductors located between the brushes. In parallel branches, the same emfs act, directed opposite to each other.

Operating principle

The EMF removed by the contact brushes is equal to the sum of the electromotive forces of the conductors located between the brushes. In parallel branches, the same emfs act, directed opposite to each other.

On fig. 16.3 shows the equivalent circuit of the armature winding.

DC motors
Rice. 16.3. The equivalent circuit of the armature winding of a DC machine

When connected to the armature resistance winding, the same currents arise in parallel branches  through resistance RH current flows IЯ. EMF of the armature winding is proportional to the frequency of rotation of the armature n2 and the magnetic flux of the inductor Ф:

(16.1)

where Ce - constant.

In real DC electrical machines, a special contact device is used - a collector. The collector is installed on the same shaft with the armature core and consists of separate copper plates isolated from each other and from the armature shaft. Each of the plates is connected to one or more conductors of the armature winding. Fixed contact brushes are superimposed on the collector. With the help of contact brushes, the rotating armature winding is connected to the DC network or to the load.

Under the action of a voltage applied to the armature of the motor, a current I will appear in the armature windingя. When the current interacts with the magnetic field of the inductor, an electromagnetic torque occurs

(16.2)

where Cм - coefficient depending on the design of the engine.

On fig. 16.4 schematically shows a DC motor, the armature winding conductor is highlighted.

DC motors
Rice. 16.4. Diagram of a DC motor with a dedicated armature winding conductor

The current in the conductor is directed away from us. The direction of the electromagnetic torque is determined by the left hand rule. The anchor rotates counterclockwise. In the conductors of the armature winding, an EMF is induced, the direction of which is determined by the right hand rule. This EMF is directed against the armature current, it is called counter-EMF. In steady state, the electromagnetic torque MEm balanced by the opposing braking torque M2 rotating mechanism:


Rice. 16.5. Motor armature equivalent circuit

On fig. 16.5 shows the equivalent circuit of the motor armature winding.

DC motors
Rice. 16.5. Motor armature equivalent circuit

EMF is directed opposite to the armature current. According to Kirchhoff's second law

whence

(16.3)

Equation (16.3) is called the basic equation of the engine. From equation (16.3) one can obtain the formulas:

(16.4)

(16.5)

The magnetic flux Ф depends on the excitation current Iвcreated in the excitation winding.

From formula (16.5) it can be seen that the speed of the DC motor n2 can be adjusted in the following ways:

  • Method 1 - by changing the excitation current using a rheostat in the excitation winding circuit;
  • Method 2 - by changing the voltage U at the terminals of the armature winding.
  • Method 3 - by changing the magnetic flux of the machine.

To change the direction of rotation of the motor to the reverse (reverse the motor), it is necessary to change the direction of the current in the armature or inductor winding.

3D ceramic tableware printer 04.04.2014

There are printers that work with sugar and food coloring, using these components as consumables to create edible confectionery masterpieces. 3D printers have also been created that use both various types of plastic and metal powder to be sintered and layered to give the final shape. However, until recently, ceramics was not available as a material for 3D printing devices.

The process of manufacturing porcelain products is accompanied by long processing and drying in special installations under the influence of high temperatures. The creation of even simple samples of porcelain utensils or dishes requires the attention of several technologists and goes through certain basic stages.

Students from the University of Bristol decided to correct this misunderstanding and, under the guidance of Professor Stephen Hoskins, created a XNUMXD printer that works with clay. This printer is able to create a full-fledged blank for heat treatment, which will later become a familiar ceramic cup, plate or original figurine. The presented samples of products in the video look very worthy:

Some clarity needs to be made: in fact, ideas for clay printers have been around before. The same company 3D Systems demonstrated at the beginning of this year the CeraJet device, whose functions include the manufacture of ceramic dishes. There were other prototypes of 3D printers, but they all had one thing in common: due to the type and structure of the consumables used, the products did not have sufficient reliability and quality. Simply put, it was not possible to create durable cups that would not differ in any way from dishes made by the classical manufacturing method.

As for the 3D Systems CeraJet, although this printer model is capable of printing dishes, it still formally appeared later than the project of Mr. Hoskins and his wards. About a year ago, the first working sample of a 3D printer was already demonstrated, so the professor, his colleagues and students deservedly received the title of pioneers in this field.

Of course, the key stages of the technological process itself have not changed significantly. The printer takes on the main task - giving the clay product the necessary initial shape, in order to proceed to the subsequent glazing and firing of its parts. Transferring a virtual model to a full-fledged clay blank requires a lot of time, but now the production of porcelain items will become available even at home. True, with an amendment, but the fact that the buyer has a large apartment, because the overall size of a 3D printer for ceramics is comparable to a washing machine.

The composition of the base material with which the presented device "prints" was created and patented by Professor Stephen Hoskins. The main one is clay powder, which, connecting layer by layer, turns into a solid figure. The device, according to its authors, should attract the attention of designers and artists, as well as major manufacturers of various ceramic products.
