Abstract: A rotor of an electric machine has a circumferential surface and a permanent-magnet structure on the circumferential surface . A contour of the permanent-magnet structure has a stepped section with several steps, whereby each step has a first extension that is oriented essentially perpendicularly to the circumferential direction of the circumferential surface as well as a second extension that is oriented parallel to the circumferential direction and that connects the first extension to a first extension of an adjacent step. The first extension of a first step differs from the first extension of a second step that is adjacent to the first step and/or the second extension of a first step differs from the second extension of the second step.

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a cost-effective, easily regulated rotary-linear drive. Therefore, the invention provides for the rotary-linear drive to connect a rotary drive (10) to a linear drive module (11). The linear drive module (11) comprises a rotatable drive-side receiving device for receiving a torque from the rotary drive (10). Additionally, the linear drive module has a linear motor, the armature (15) of which is rotatable, is rotated by a stator (14), and comprises an output element for the purpose of driving the shaft (12) in a rotary-linear fashion. To this end, the linear drive module (11) also comprises a coupling device (16) that couples the receiving device and the armature (15) in a rotationally secure but not linear fashion.

Abstract: The invention relates to more accurate rotative and linear positional measurement for a rotary-linear drive. A measuring system comprising a linear sensor (12) and a rotary sensor (20) is disclosed. A decoupling unit (11,14,17) decouples the rotary displacement from the linear displacement of a shaft (10). The decoupling unit (11,14,17) has either a first measuring section (11), which is coupled in a fixed manner to the shaft to be measured (10) and tapped by the linear sensor (12) and a second measuring section (17), which is exclusively non-rotatably coupled to the shaft to be measured (10) and is tapped by the rotary sensor (20), or a first measuring section, which is coupled in a fixed manner exclusively linearly to the shaft to be measured and is tapped by the linear sensor and a second measuring section, which is non-rotatably coupled to the shaft to be measured and is tapped by the rotary sensor.

Abstract: A plastics injection-molding machine is to be equipped with a more compact drive that undergoes less wear. For this purpose, it is envisaged to integrate the direct rotational drive into the direct linear drive. Accordingly, the electric linear motor has a pot-shaped external rotor (13), in the inner space of which the main part of a hollow-cylindrical stator (16) of the linear motor is arranged and which is firmly connected to the output shaft (10). The rotary drive has a stator (18), which is mounted on the inner wall of the hollow-cylindrical stator (16) of the linear motor, and a rotor, which is firmly coupled to the output shaft (10) within the stator (18) of the rotary electric motor. This direct drive produces a very compact type of construction and it is possible to dispense with easily wearing threaded spindles.

Abstract: The driving force produced by the linear drive on a motor with a rotational drive and with a linear drive can be registered in a quantified fashion by virtue of the fact that deformation of a motor element (top disc 22) which connects a rotor (30) of the linear drive to an output shaft (24) is measured. A corresponding signal can then be assigned to a measured value for the axial force, either on the basis of a known linear relationship or on the basis of standardization. Strain measuring gauges (DMS1 to DMS4) are used to measure the deformation.

Abstract: During combined rotatory-linear displacements of a shaft (2), either both motions, or one of them, is supposed to be decelerated without high energy expenditure in a simple manner. To this end, a brake comprising a brake holder (1) and at least two arc-shaped brake shoes (5) are proposed, which are each provided with a brake lining, are fastened to the brake holder (1), and can be pressed against the displaceable shaft (2). In this way, advantageously both the linear motion and the rotatory motion of the shaft (2) can be decelerated. In order to decelerate only the linear motion, an axially fixed brake sleeve, which is rotatorily mounted on the shaft, can be used. Furthermore, a linear ball bushing can be used to decelerate the rotatory motion without influencing the linear motion.

Abstract: There is described a device and a method for operating an injection device for an injection molding machine which is provided with an extruder screw that is driven by an electric machine. Acceleration values and/or values depending on an operating point of the electric machine are used for calculating an injection pressure and/or a ram pressure, thus dispensing with the need for a pressure sensor.
