Description
本発明は、回転運動を直線運動に変換するアクチュエータに関する。より詳しくは、本発明は、モータ駆動による回転運動を直線往復動に変換して出力するアクチュエータに関する。
The present invention relates to an actuator that converts rotational motion into linear motion. More specifically, the present invention relates to an actuator that converts a rotary motion driven by a motor into a linear reciprocating motion and outputs the same.
従来から、各種機器を動作させるためのアクチュエータとして、油圧シリンダが提供されている。
Conventionally, hydraulic cylinders have been provided as actuators for operating various devices.
油圧シリンダは、第一端と該第一端の反対側の第二端とを有する筒状のシリンダ本体と、第一端と該第一端の反対側の第二端とを有する棒状のロッド、及びロッドの第一端に連結された大径のピストンを含むピストンロッドとを備える。ピストンロッドのピストン及びロッドの一部は、シリンダ本体に同心で内装される。
The hydraulic cylinder has a cylindrical cylinder body having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end, and a rod-shaped rod having a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. And a piston rod including a large-diameter piston connected to the first end of the rod. The piston of the piston rod and a part of the rod are concentrically housed in the cylinder body.
油圧シリンダは、ピストンを境にしたシリンダ本体の第一端側又は第二端側の何れか一方側の内部空間に対して作動油が供給される。ピストンは、シリンダ本体内に供給される作動油の流体圧の作用で軸線方向に押される。これにより、ピストンロッド全体が軸線方向に軸力を発生させつつ移動する。なお、一般的な油圧シリンダは、ピストンを境にしたシリンダ本体の第一端側の内部空間に作動油を供給することでピストンロッドが第二端側に移動し、シリンダ本体の第二端側の内部空間に作動油を供給することでピストンロッドが第一端側に移動するようになっている。しかしながら、油圧シリンダには、この他に、ピストンを境にしたシリンダ本体の第一端側又は第二端側の何れか一方側の内部空間にピストンを付勢するリターンスプリングが内装されたものがある。この種の油圧シリンダは、シリンダ本体の第一端側又は第二端側の何れか他方の内部空間に作動油が供給されることで、ピストンロッドがシリンダ本体の第一端側又は第二端側の何れか一方側に移動し、リターンスプリングの付勢力でピストンロッドがシリンダ本体の第一端側又は第二端側の何れか他方側に移動する。
The hydraulic cylinder is supplied with hydraulic oil to the internal space on either the first end side or the second end side of the cylinder body with the piston as a boundary. The piston is pushed in the axial direction by the action of the fluid pressure of the hydraulic oil supplied into the cylinder body. As a result, the entire piston rod moves while generating an axial force in the axial direction. Note that a general hydraulic cylinder moves the piston rod to the second end side by supplying hydraulic oil to the internal space on the first end side of the cylinder body with the piston as a boundary, and the second end side of the cylinder body The piston rod is moved to the first end side by supplying hydraulic oil to the inner space of the piston rod. However, in addition to this, some hydraulic cylinders have a return spring that biases the piston in the internal space on either the first end side or the second end side of the cylinder body with the piston as a boundary. is there. In this type of hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic oil is supplied to the other internal space on the first end side or the second end side of the cylinder body, so that the piston rod is connected to the first end side or the second end of the cylinder body. The piston rod moves to either the first end side or the second end side of the cylinder body by the biasing force of the return spring.
定常的に設置される機器に油圧シリンダが搭載される場合、油圧シリンダに作動油を供給するための油圧ユニットが油圧シリンダと異なる位置に別途設置される。これに対し、持ち運びされるハンディー装置(例えば、リベットをかしめ処理するためのリベッタや、金属製の棒材を切断するバーカッタ等の手持ち工具等)に油圧シリンダが搭載される場合、機器全体のサイズを小型化するために、油圧ユニットが油圧シリンダ(シリンダ本体)に一体的に連結される(例えば、特許文献1参照)。
When a hydraulic cylinder is mounted on equipment that is regularly installed, a hydraulic unit for supplying hydraulic oil to the hydraulic cylinder is separately installed at a position different from the hydraulic cylinder. On the other hand, when a hydraulic cylinder is mounted on a handy device to be carried (for example, a riveter for caulking a rivet or a hand-held tool such as a bar cutter for cutting a metal bar), the size of the entire device In order to reduce the size, a hydraulic unit is integrally connected to a hydraulic cylinder (cylinder body) (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
ところで、機器を動作させるアクチュエータとして油圧シリンダが採用される場合、上述の如く、油圧ユニットが必要である。そのため、油圧シリンダ以外に油圧ユニットを配置するためのスペースの確保が必要である。すなわち、油圧ユニットは、作動油を貯留するためのタンクや、該タンク内の作動油を送り出すポンプ、ポンプを動作させるモータ等を備える。そのため、油圧ユニットの占有スペースが大きく、各種機器を動作させるアクチュエータに油圧シリンダが採用されると、機器全体が大きくなるといった問題がある。
By the way, when a hydraulic cylinder is employed as an actuator for operating equipment, a hydraulic unit is required as described above. Therefore, it is necessary to secure a space for arranging the hydraulic unit in addition to the hydraulic cylinder. That is, the hydraulic unit includes a tank for storing hydraulic oil, a pump for sending hydraulic oil in the tank, a motor for operating the pump, and the like. For this reason, the space occupied by the hydraulic unit is large, and when the hydraulic cylinder is employed as an actuator for operating various devices, there is a problem that the entire device becomes large.
特に、持ち運びされるハンディー装置(例えば、リベットをかしめ処理するためのリベッタや、金属製の棒材を切断するバーカッタ等の手持ち工具等)に油圧シリンダが採用された場合、油圧ユニットが大型化や重量化の原因となり、ハンドリング性が害されるといった問題がある。
In particular, when a hydraulic cylinder is used in a handy device to be carried (for example, a riveter for caulking a rivet or a hand-held tool such as a bar cutter for cutting a metal bar), the hydraulic unit becomes larger. There is a problem that the weight is increased and the handling property is impaired.
そこで、本発明は、斯かる実情に鑑み、油圧シリンダと同等の性能を発揮しつつも小型化及び軽量化することのできるアクチュエータを提供することを課題とする。

そして、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、第一流路304の大径穴部304a内には、小径穴部304bの穴径よりも大径な球状の弁(以下、玉弁という)308と、該玉弁308をボア20の第二端側に付勢するコイルバネ309とが内装されている。これにより、第一流路304の逆止弁306が形成されている。逆止弁306は、コイルバネ309による付勢で、ボア20の第二端側にある小径穴部304bと大径穴部304aとの境界に形成される環状の段差部分に玉弁308が押し付けられることで、玉弁308が小径穴部304bを閉塞するようになっている。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, a spherical valve (hereinafter referred to as a ball valve) 308 having a larger diameter than the hole diameter of the small diameter hole 304b is disposed in the large diameter hole 304a of the first flow path 304. A coil spring 309 that urges the ball valve 308 toward the second end side of the bore 20 is provided. Thereby, the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304 is formed. The check valve 306 is biased by the coil spring 309 so that the ball valve 308 is pressed against an annular step formed at the boundary between the small diameter hole 304b and the large diameter hole 304a on the second end side of the bore 20. As a result, the ball valve 308 closes the small diameter hole 304b.
これにより、第一流路304の逆止弁306において、ボア20の第二端側から第一流路304に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、その作動油の流体圧によって玉弁308がコイルバネ309の付勢力に抗してプランジャ穴301側に押される。これにより、作動油がボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に流通可能となる。その一方で、プランジャ穴301からボア20の第二端側に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、玉弁308がコイルバネ309の付勢力で段差部分に圧接する、これにより、玉弁308は、小径穴部304bを閉塞する。従って、プランジャ穴301からボア20の第二端側にあるボア20内に作動油が流れ込むことが防止される。
As a result, in the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304, when the working oil tries to flow into the first flow path 304 from the second end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 308 is moved by the fluid pressure of the working oil to the coil spring 309. It is pushed toward the plunger hole 301 against the urging force. Thereby, the hydraulic oil can flow from the second end side of the bore 20 to the first end side of the bore 20. On the other hand, when the hydraulic oil tries to flow from the plunger hole 301 to the second end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 308 is pressed against the step portion by the urging force of the coil spring 309, whereby the ball valve 308 has a small diameter. The hole 304b is closed. Therefore, the hydraulic oil is prevented from flowing from the plunger hole 301 into the bore 20 on the second end side of the bore 20.
第二流路305は、一方向(ボア20と同方向)に延びるように形成されている。第二流路305は、途中位置に形成された大径穴部305aと、該大径穴部305aの両側に形成された小径穴部305b,305bとを備える。なお、本実施形態において、第二流路305は、ピストン部31に穿設された段付き穴と該段付き穴の開口部に嵌着された筒状のプラグ(採番しない)の内穴とが連続することで形成されている。
The second channel 305 is formed to extend in one direction (the same direction as the bore 20). The second flow path 305 includes a large-diameter hole 305a formed at an intermediate position, and small- diameter holes 305b and 305b formed on both sides of the large-diameter hole 305a. In the present embodiment, the second flow path 305 includes a stepped hole formed in the piston portion 31 and an inner hole of a cylindrical plug (not numbered) fitted in the opening of the stepped hole. And is formed by continuation.
そして、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、第二流路305の大径穴部305bには、小径穴部305bの穴径よりも大径な球状の弁(以下、玉弁という)310と、該玉弁310をボア20の第二端側に付勢するコイルバネ311とが内装されている。これにより、第二流路305の逆止弁307が形成されている。かかる逆止弁307は、コイルバネ311による付勢で、ボア20の第二端側にある小径穴部305bと大径穴部305aとの境界に形成される環状の段差部分に玉弁310が押し付けられることで、玉弁310が小径穴部305bを閉塞するようになっている。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the large diameter hole 305b of the second flow path 305 includes a spherical valve (hereinafter referred to as a ball valve) 310 having a diameter larger than the diameter of the small diameter hole 305b, A coil spring 311 that urges the ball valve 310 toward the second end side of the bore 20 is housed. Thereby, the check valve 307 of the second flow path 305 is formed. The check valve 307 is biased by the coil spring 311 so that the ball valve 310 presses against an annular step formed at the boundary between the small diameter hole 305b and the large diameter hole 305a on the second end side of the bore 20. As a result, the ball valve 310 closes the small diameter hole 305b.
これにより、第二流路305の逆止弁307は、プランジャ穴301内から第二流路305に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、その作動油の流体圧によって玉弁310がコイルバネ311の付勢力に抗してボア20の第一端側に押される。これにより、作動油がボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に流通可能となる。その一方で、ボア20の第一端側から第二流路305に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、玉弁310がコイルバネ311の付勢力で段差部分に圧接する。これにより、玉弁310が小径穴部305bを閉塞する。従って、ボア20の第一端側からプランジャ穴301内に作動油が流れ込むことが防止される。
As a result, the check valve 307 of the second flow path 305 causes the ball valve 310 to be attached to the coil spring 311 by the fluid pressure of the hydraulic oil when the hydraulic oil tries to flow into the second flow path 305 from the plunger hole 301. The bore 20 is pushed toward the first end side against the force. Thereby, the hydraulic oil can flow from the second end side of the bore 20 to the first end side of the bore 20. On the other hand, when the hydraulic oil tries to flow into the second flow path 305 from the first end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 310 is pressed against the step portion by the urging force of the coil spring 311. Thereby, the ball valve 310 closes the small diameter hole 305b. Therefore, the hydraulic oil is prevented from flowing into the plunger hole 301 from the first end side of the bore 20.

However, the eccentric shaft portion 40 having a smaller diameter than the shaft insertion hole 300 is eccentric with respect to the rotation center of the rotation shaft 4 (hole center of the shaft insertion hole 300). Thereby, at least any one plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 by the eccentric shaft portion 40 (see FIG. 3).
本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、モータの駆動が回転軸4に伝達される。これにより、回転軸4が回転する。しかしながら、ピストンロッド3(ピストン部31)がガイドバー6によって回り止めされた状態(非回転状態)で維持する。これに対し、偏心軸部40は、回転軸4の回転軸4を中心に回転する。これにより、偏心軸部40は、軸挿入穴300回りに配置された複数のプランジャ302のそれぞれを順々に押圧してプランジャ穴301に押し込む。そして、回転軸4の回転に伴い、偏心軸部40による押圧が解除されたプランジャ302は、付勢部材303の付勢で軸挿入穴300(偏心軸部40)側に突出する。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the drive of the motor is transmitted to the rotating shaft 4. Thereby, the rotating shaft 4 rotates. However, the piston rod 3 (piston portion 31) is maintained in a state where it is prevented from rotating by the guide bar 6 (non-rotating state). On the other hand, the eccentric shaft portion 40 rotates around the rotation shaft 4 of the rotation shaft 4. Thereby, the eccentric shaft part 40 presses each of the plurality of plungers 302 arranged around the shaft insertion hole 300 in order and pushes them into the plunger hole 301. As the rotary shaft 4 rotates, the plunger 302 released from being pressed by the eccentric shaft portion 40 protrudes toward the shaft insertion hole 300 (eccentric shaft portion 40) by the biasing member 303.
従って、回転軸4が回転することで、複数のプランジャ302のそれぞれがタイミングをずらしてプランジャ穴301内で往復動する。これに伴い、プランジャ穴301の空間(プランジャ302の存在しない領域)が容積変化する。これにより、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側にある作動油がプランジャ穴301に流入してピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に押し出される。
Therefore, as the rotating shaft 4 rotates, each of the plurality of plungers 302 reciprocates within the plunger hole 301 at different timings. Accordingly, the volume of the space of the plunger hole 301 (the region where the plunger 302 does not exist) changes in volume. As a result, the hydraulic oil on the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary flows into the plunger hole 301 and is pushed out to the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary.
具体的には、プランジャ穴301に押し込まれたプランジャ302が回転軸4側に移動するとき(空間容積が拡大するとき)に、ボア20内に充填された作動油(ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側の領域にある作動油)は、第一流路304に引き込まれる。そして、プランジャ302が最大に突出した状態で作動油の引き込みが完了する。この状態で、第一流路304内の逆止弁306の作用により、プランジャ穴301内に引き込まれた作動油が、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側に逆流することが防止される。
Specifically, when the plunger 302 pushed into the plunger hole 301 moves to the rotating shaft 4 side (when the space volume increases), the hydraulic oil filled in the bore 20 (with the piston portion 31 as a boundary) Hydraulic oil in the region on the second end side of the bore 20 is drawn into the first flow path 304. Then, the drawing-in of the hydraulic oil is completed with the plunger 302 protruding to the maximum. In this state, the action of the check valve 306 in the first flow path 304 prevents hydraulic oil drawn into the plunger hole 301 from flowing back to the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary. Is done.
これに対し、プランジャ302がプランジャ穴301に押し込まれるとき(空間容積が縮小するとき)に、プランジャ穴301内にある作動油が第二流路305を通ってピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に押し出される。そして、プランジャ302がプランジャ穴301に最大に押し込まれた状態で、ボア20の第一端側に対する作動油の押し出しが完了する。この状態で、第二流路305内の逆止弁307の作用により、ボア20の第一端側に押し出された作動油がプランジャ穴301側に逆流することが防止される。
In contrast, when the plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 (when the spatial volume is reduced), the hydraulic oil in the plunger hole 301 passes through the second flow path 305 and the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary. It is pushed out to the first end side. Then, in the state where the plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 to the maximum, the extrusion of the hydraulic oil to the first end side of the bore 20 is completed. In this state, the action of the check valve 307 in the second flow path 305 prevents the hydraulic oil pushed out to the first end side of the bore 20 from flowing back to the plunger hole 301 side.
このように、ボア20の第二端側にある作動油が、ボア20の第一端側に送られると、ボア20の第一端側が作動油で充満する。本実施形態において、軸挿入穴300が全長に亘って同径であるため、ボア20の第一端側に流入した作動油は、軸挿入穴300内にも入り込む。従って、先端軸部42の段差上に設けられた油抜用穴420から該先端軸部42よりも奥側にも作動油が流れ込むことになる。
Thus, when the hydraulic oil on the second end side of the bore 20 is sent to the first end side of the bore 20, the first end side of the bore 20 is filled with the hydraulic oil. In this embodiment, since the shaft insertion hole 300 has the same diameter over the entire length, the hydraulic oil that has flowed into the first end side of the bore 20 also enters the shaft insertion hole 300. Accordingly, hydraulic oil flows from the oil drain hole 420 provided on the step of the tip shaft portion 42 to the back side of the tip shaft portion 42.
そして、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に作動油が充満した状態でさらに作動油が送り込まれると、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側の圧力が高まる。その結果、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側に押され、ピストンロッド3が一方向(軸線方向)に移動する。本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1は、ピストン部31にガイドバー6が挿通されている。そのため、ピストンロッド3全体が回り止めされた状態でガイドバー6に案内され、ボア20の第二端側(一方の閉塞部22側)に移動する。
When the hydraulic oil is further fed in the state where the hydraulic oil is filled in the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary, the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary increases. . As a result, the piston portion 31 is pushed to the second end side of the bore 20, and the piston rod 3 moves in one direction (axial direction). In the actuator 1 according to this embodiment, the guide bar 6 is inserted through the piston portion 31. Therefore, the piston rod 3 is guided by the guide bar 6 in a state in which the entire piston rod 3 is prevented from rotating, and moves to the second end side (one closing portion 22 side) of the bore 20.
そして、ピストンロッド3がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置又は所定位置に到達した状態で、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側にある領域(ボア20)と軸挿入穴300とが作動油で充満した状態になる。
Then, in a state where the piston rod 3 has reached a limit position or a predetermined position on the second end side of the bore 20, a region (bore 20) on the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary is inserted into the shaft. The hole 300 is filled with hydraulic oil.
この状態で、ボア20の第一端側にある領域内の圧力上昇が止まる。これにより、ピストンロッド3がリターンスプリング5の付勢でボア20の第一端側に向けて移動することになる。本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1は、弁機構7を備えている。そのため、ピストンロッド3がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置に到達した状態で、弁機構7が連通路320を開放することで、ボア20の第一端側の領域内にある作動油が、ボア20の第二端側の領域に流れ込む。これにより、ボア20の第一端側の領域(ボア20)内の圧力が低下する。
In this state, the pressure increase in the region on the first end side of the bore 20 stops. As a result, the piston rod 3 is moved toward the first end side of the bore 20 by the bias of the return spring 5. The actuator 1 according to this embodiment includes a valve mechanism 7. Therefore, when the piston rod 3 reaches the limit position on the second end side of the bore 20, the valve mechanism 7 opens the communication path 320, so that the hydraulic oil in the region on the first end side of the bore 20 is present. Flows into the region on the second end side of the bore 20. Thereby, the pressure in the area | region (bore 20) of the 1st end side of the bore 20 falls.
すなわち、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側の限界位置に到達すると、弁機構7の軸状弁70の一方の小径軸部70bが一方の閉塞部22の内面に当接し、他方の閉塞部23側に押される。これに伴い、連通路320が開放(連通)され、ボア20の第一端側の作動油が連通路320を介してボア20の第二端側に流れる。これにより、ボア20の第一端側の圧力が低下する。従って、リターンスプリング5の付勢力でピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に向けて迅速に移動する。
That is, when the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position on the second end side of the bore 20, one small diameter shaft portion 70 b of the shaft-like valve 70 of the valve mechanism 7 comes into contact with the inner surface of one closing portion 22 and the other closing portion is closed. It is pushed to the part 23 side. Accordingly, the communication path 320 is opened (communication), and the hydraulic oil on the first end side of the bore 20 flows to the second end side of the bore 20 through the communication path 320. As a result, the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 decreases. Therefore, the piston portion 31 moves quickly toward the first end side of the bore 20 by the urging force of the return spring 5.
そして、回転軸4が回転し続けた場合、連通路320を介してボア20の第一端側からボア20の第二端側に作動油が流れ込む。これにより、ボア20の第一端側の圧力が上昇しない。そのため、リターンスプリング5の付勢力は、ボア20の第一端側の圧力に勝り、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に迅速に押し戻される。なお、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に押し戻される際に、軸挿入穴300の奥側(先端軸部42よりも奥側)にある作動油は、ロッド部30の移動に伴って先端軸部42側に押されることになる。しかしながら、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1は、先端軸部42に軸心方向の油抜用穴420が穿設されている。そのため、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に移動する際、軸挿入穴300内の作動油が油抜用穴420を介してボア20の第一端側にある領域に押し出された上で、連通路320からボア20の第二端側にある領域に送り出される。
And when the rotating shaft 4 continues to rotate, hydraulic fluid flows from the first end side of the bore 20 to the second end side of the bore 20 through the communication path 320. Thereby, the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 does not increase. Therefore, the biasing force of the return spring 5 exceeds the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20, and the piston portion 31 is quickly pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20. In addition, when the piston part 31 is pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20, the hydraulic oil in the back side of the shaft insertion hole 300 (back side from the tip end shaft part 42) is accompanied by the movement of the rod part 30. It will be pushed to the tip shaft part 42 side. However, in the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the oil drain hole 420 in the axial direction is formed in the distal end shaft portion 42. Therefore, when the piston portion 31 moves to the first end side of the bore 20, the hydraulic oil in the shaft insertion hole 300 is pushed out to the region on the first end side of the bore 20 through the oil draining hole 420. Then, the air is sent out from the communication path 320 to the area on the second end side of the bore 20.
そして、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に設定された限界位置に到達すると、弁機構7の他方の小径軸部70bが他方の閉塞部23に当接する。これにより、軸状弁70全体がボア20の第二端側に押され、連通路320が遮断される。これに伴い、ボア20の第一端側に作動油が供給されたときに、当該領域が圧力上昇できる状態になる。
When the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position set on the first end side of the bore 20, the other small-diameter shaft portion 70 b of the valve mechanism 7 comes into contact with the other closing portion 23. As a result, the entire shaft-like valve 70 is pushed to the second end side of the bore 20, and the communication path 320 is blocked. Along with this, when the hydraulic oil is supplied to the first end side of the bore 20, the region is in a state where the pressure can be increased.
従って、上記アクチュエータ1において、上記動作が繰り返されることでピストンロッド3のロッドが軸線方向で往復動する。
Therefore, in the actuator 1, the above operation is repeated, so that the rod of the piston rod 3 reciprocates in the axial direction.
以上のように、上記構成のアクチュエータ1は、シリンダ本体2内(ボア20内)のピストン部31に作動油の流体圧を作用させてピストンロッド3を移動させる。これにより、アクチュエータ1は、油圧シリンダと同等の性能を発揮することができる。また、アクチュエータ1は、シリンダ本体2内のみで作動油を流動させるとともに、シリンダ本体2内に作動油を流動させる構成が内装される。これにより、アクチュエータ1は、小型化及び軽量化したものになる。
As described above, the actuator 1 configured as described above moves the piston rod 3 by applying the fluid pressure of the hydraulic oil to the piston portion 31 in the cylinder body 2 (in the bore 20). Thereby, the actuator 1 can exhibit the performance equivalent to a hydraulic cylinder. In addition, the actuator 1 includes a configuration in which the hydraulic oil flows only in the cylinder body 2 and the hydraulic oil flows in the cylinder body 2. Thereby, the actuator 1 is reduced in size and weight.

The piston main body 31 a has a first flow path 304 that opens toward the second end side of the bore 20 (the other side in one direction: the one closed portion 22 side), and is in communication with the plunger hole 301. A second flow path 305 that opens toward the passage 304 and the first end side of the bore 20 (one side in one direction: the other closed portion 23 side), and communicates with the plunger hole 301. And are provided. Each of the first channel 304 and the second channel 305 is provided with check valves 306 and 307. The check valves 306 and 307 allow the hydraulic oil to flow from the second end side of the bore 20 toward the first end side of the bore 20, while the second end of the bore 20 from the first end side of the bore 20. Blocks hydraulic fluid from flowing toward the end.
より具体的に説明すると、本実施形態に係るピストン本体31aには、図7に示す如く、外周面上で開口した非貫通状態のプランジャ穴301が周方向に間隔をあけて複数設けられている。本実施形態において、プランジャ穴301は、六つ設けられており、それぞれ等間隔(60°毎)に配置されている。
More specifically, as shown in FIG. 7, the piston main body 31a according to the present embodiment is provided with a plurality of non-penetrating plunger holes 301 that are opened on the outer peripheral surface at intervals in the circumferential direction. . In the present embodiment, six plunger holes 301 are provided, and are arranged at equal intervals (every 60 °).
プランジャ穴301には、外観ピン状のプランジャ302と付勢部材であるコイルバネ303とが同心で内装されている。
In the plunger hole 301, an external pin-shaped plunger 302 and a coil spring 303 as an urging member are concentrically housed.
プランジャ302の外径は、プランジャ穴301の穴径と同径に設定されている。これにより、プランジャ302の外周面がプランジャ穴301の内周面と摺接した状態で、当該プランジャ302が自己の軸心方向に移動可能になっている。プランジャ302の先端部は、丸みを持った半球状に形成されている。
The outer diameter of the plunger 302 is set to the same diameter as that of the plunger hole 301. Accordingly, the plunger 302 can move in the axial direction of the plunger 302 in a state where the outer peripheral surface of the plunger 302 is in sliding contact with the inner peripheral surface of the plunger hole 301. The tip of the plunger 302 is formed in a rounded hemisphere.
付勢部材303は、プランジャ302を外側(外輪部31b)に向けて付勢する。これにより、付勢部材303は、プランジャ302の先端を外輪部31bの内周面に常時接触させる。また、プランジャ302の先端部がプランジャ穴301から外側に突出した状態と、プランジャ302全体がプランジャ穴301内に押し込まれた状態とにできるように、付勢部材303の撓み代が設定されている。なお、プランジャ穴301の奥側は、小径穴になっている。これにより、プランジャ穴301の穴径の変更に伴って形成される段差部が、付勢部材303を支持する。
The urging member 303 urges the plunger 302 toward the outside (outer ring portion 31b). Thereby, the urging member 303 always brings the tip of the plunger 302 into contact with the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring portion 31b. Further, the bending allowance of the urging member 303 is set so that the distal end portion of the plunger 302 protrudes outward from the plunger hole 301 and the entire plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301. . The back side of the plunger hole 301 is a small diameter hole. Thereby, the step part formed with the change of the hole diameter of the plunger hole 301 supports the urging member 303.
第一流路304及び第二流路305は、プランジャ302(プランジャ穴301)毎に設けられている。従って、逆止弁306,307は、第一流路304及び第二流路305のそれぞれに設けられている。
The first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305 are provided for each plunger 302 (plunger hole 301). Therefore, the check valves 306 and 307 are provided in the first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305, respectively.
より具体的に説明する。第一流路304は、図6に示す如く、一方向(ボア20と同方向)に延びるように形成されている。第一流路304は、プランジャ穴301側に形成された大径穴部304aと、ボア20の第二端側(一方の閉塞部22側)で大径穴部304aと連続する小径穴部304bとを備える。なお、本実施形態において、第一流路304(小径穴部304b)は、プランジャ穴301の奥側にある小径穴に連通している。
More specific explanation. As shown in FIG. 6, the first flow path 304 is formed to extend in one direction (the same direction as the bore 20). The first flow path 304 includes a large-diameter hole portion 304a formed on the plunger hole 301 side, and a small-diameter hole portion 304b continuous with the large-diameter hole portion 304a on the second end side of the bore 20 (on the one closing portion 22 side). Is provided. In the present embodiment, the first flow path 304 (small diameter hole portion 304b) communicates with a small diameter hole on the back side of the plunger hole 301.
本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、第一流路304の大径穴部304aには、小径穴部304bの穴径よりも大径な球状の弁(以下、玉弁という)308と、玉弁308を前記ボア20の第二端側に付勢するコイルバネ309とが内装されている。これにより、第一流路304の逆止弁306が形成されている。逆止弁306は、コイルバネ309による付勢よって、ボア20の第二端側にある小径穴部304bと大径穴部304aとの境界に形成される環状の段差部分に玉弁308が押し付けられることで、玉弁308が小径穴部304bを閉塞するようになっている。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the large-diameter hole 304a of the first flow path 304 includes a spherical valve (hereinafter referred to as a ball valve) 308 having a diameter larger than that of the small-diameter hole 304b, and a ball valve 308. And a coil spring 309 that urges the bore 20 toward the second end side of the bore 20. Thereby, the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304 is formed. The check valve 306 is urged by the coil spring 309 so that the ball valve 308 is pressed against an annular step formed at the boundary between the small diameter hole 304b and the large diameter hole 304a on the second end side of the bore 20. As a result, the ball valve 308 closes the small diameter hole 304b.
これにより、第一流路304の逆止弁306において、ボア20の第二端側から第一流路304に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、その作動油の流体圧によって玉弁308がコイルバネ309の付勢力に抗してプランジャ穴301側に押される。これにより、作動油がボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に流通可能となる。その一方で、プランジャ穴301からボア20の第二端側に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、玉弁308がコイルバネ309の付勢力で段差部分に圧接する。これにより、玉弁308は、小径穴部304bを閉塞する。従って、プランジャ穴301からボア20の第二端側に作動油が流れ込むことが防止される。
As a result, in the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304, when the working oil tries to flow into the first flow path 304 from the second end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 308 is moved by the fluid pressure of the working oil to the coil spring 309. It is pushed toward the plunger hole 301 against the urging force. Thereby, the hydraulic oil can flow from the second end side of the bore 20 to the first end side of the bore 20. On the other hand, when hydraulic oil tries to flow from the plunger hole 301 to the second end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 308 is pressed against the stepped portion by the biasing force of the coil spring 309. Thereby, the ball valve 308 closes the small diameter hole 304b. Accordingly, the hydraulic oil is prevented from flowing from the plunger hole 301 to the second end side of the bore 20.
第二流路305は、一方向に延びるように形成されている。第二流路305は、途中位置に形成された大径穴部305aと、該大径穴部305aの両側に形成された小径穴部305b,305bとを備える。なお、本実施形態において、第二流路305は、ピストン部31に穿設された段付き穴と該段付き穴の開口部に嵌着された筒状のプラグ(採番しない)の内穴とが連続することで形成されている。
The second flow path 305 is formed to extend in one direction. The second flow path 305 includes a large-diameter hole 305a formed at an intermediate position, and small- diameter holes 305b and 305b formed on both sides of the large-diameter hole 305a. In the present embodiment, the second flow path 305 includes a stepped hole formed in the piston portion 31 and an inner hole of a cylindrical plug (not numbered) fitted in the opening of the stepped hole. And is formed by continuation.
そして、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、第二流路305の大径穴部305aには、小径穴部305bの穴径よりも大径な球状の弁(以下、玉弁という)310と、該玉弁310をボア20の第二端側に付勢するコイルバネ311とが内装されている。これにより、第二流路305の逆止弁307が形成されている。逆止弁307は、コイルバネ311による付勢で、ボア20の第二端側にある小径穴部305bと大径穴部305aとの境界に形成される環状の段差部分に玉弁310が押し付けられることで、玉弁310が小径穴部305bを閉塞するようになっている。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the large-diameter hole 305a of the second flow path 305 includes a spherical valve (hereinafter referred to as a ball valve) 310 having a diameter larger than that of the small-diameter hole 305b. A coil spring 311 that urges the ball valve 310 toward the second end side of the bore 20 is housed. Thereby, the check valve 307 of the second flow path 305 is formed. The check valve 307 is biased by the coil spring 311, and the ball valve 310 is pressed against an annular step formed at the boundary between the small diameter hole 305 b and the large diameter hole 305 a on the second end side of the bore 20. Thus, the ball valve 310 closes the small diameter hole 305b.
これにより、第二流路305の逆止弁307は、プランジャ穴301内から第二流路305に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、その作動油の流体圧によって玉弁310がコイルバネ311の付勢力に抗してボア20の第一端側に押される。これにより、作動油がボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に流通可能となる。その一方で、ボア20の第一端側から第二流路305に作動油が流れ込もうとすると、玉弁310がコイルバネ311の付勢力で段差部分に圧接する。これにより、玉弁310が小径穴部305bを閉塞する。従って、ボア20の第一端側からプランジャ穴301内に作動油が流れ込むことが防止される。
As a result, the check valve 307 of the second flow path 305 causes the ball valve 310 to be attached to the coil spring 311 by the fluid pressure of the hydraulic oil when the hydraulic oil tries to flow into the second flow path 305 from the plunger hole 301. The bore 20 is pushed toward the first end side against the force. Thereby, the hydraulic oil can flow from the second end side of the bore 20 to the first end side of the bore 20. On the other hand, when the hydraulic oil tries to flow into the second flow path 305 from the first end side of the bore 20, the ball valve 310 is pressed against the step portion by the urging force of the coil spring 311. Thereby, the ball valve 310 closes the small diameter hole 305b. Therefore, the hydraulic oil is prevented from flowing into the plunger hole 301 from the first end side of the bore 20.
なお、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、第二流路305のプランジャ穴301側にある小径穴部305bは、第一流路304の大径穴部304aと同径及び同心に形成され、プランジャ穴301の奥側にある小径穴に連通している。これに伴い、第二流路305の小径穴部305bと第一流路304の大径穴部304aとが連続穴を構成する。そのため、第一流路304の逆止弁306のコイルバネ309は、当該第一流路304の逆止弁306の玉弁308と第二流路305の逆止弁307の玉弁310との間に介装されている。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the small diameter hole 305b on the plunger hole 301 side of the second flow path 305 is formed to have the same diameter and concentricity as the large diameter hole 304a of the first flow path 304, and the plunger hole It communicates with a small-diameter hole on the back side of 301. Accordingly, the small diameter hole 305b of the second flow path 305 and the large diameter hole 304a of the first flow path 304 constitute a continuous hole. Therefore, the coil spring 309 of the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304 is interposed between the ball valve 308 of the check valve 306 of the first flow path 304 and the ball valve 310 of the check valve 307 of the second flow path 305. It is disguised.
外輪部31bの外径は、ボア20の穴径と略同等に設定されている。外輪部31bは、ピストン本体31aと一緒に一方向に移動可能に構成される。また、外輪部31bは、回転軸4の軸心を回転中心とし、ピストン本体31a周りで回転可能に設けられる。
The outer diameter of the outer ring portion 31b is set substantially equal to the hole diameter of the bore 20. The outer ring portion 31b is configured to be movable in one direction together with the piston main body 31a. The outer ring portion 31b is provided to be rotatable around the piston body 31a with the axis of the rotation shaft 4 as the center of rotation.
より具体的に説明すると、外輪部31bは、ピストン本体31aの中心(回転軸4の回転中心)回りで回転可能に設けられている。そして、外輪部31bの内穴は、図7に示す如く、回転軸4の回転中心からずれた位置に中心が設定された偏心穴で構成される。本実施形態に係る外輪部31bの内穴(偏心穴)は、丸穴状に形成されている。外輪部31bの内穴の中心線は、回転軸4の回転中心(ベアリングBに軸支された軸本体部の軸心)に対して略平行な状態で偏心している。これにより、外輪部31bは、回転軸4の回転中心にして回転したときに、偏心方向とは反対側の内周面の一部がピストン本体31aの外周面に沿って移動する(回転する)ようになっている。
More specifically, the outer ring portion 31b is provided to be rotatable around the center of the piston main body 31a (the rotation center of the rotation shaft 4). And the inner hole of the outer ring | wheel part 31b is comprised by the eccentric hole by which the center was set in the position shifted | deviated from the rotation center of the rotating shaft 4, as shown in FIG. The inner hole (eccentric hole) of the outer ring portion 31b according to the present embodiment is formed in a round hole shape. The center line of the inner hole of the outer ring portion 31b is eccentric in a state of being substantially parallel to the rotation center of the rotation shaft 4 (the axis center of the shaft main body portion supported by the bearing B). As a result, when the outer ring portion 31b rotates around the rotation center of the rotary shaft 4, a part of the inner peripheral surface opposite to the eccentric direction moves (rotates) along the outer peripheral surface of the piston body 31a. It is like that.
本実施形態において、外輪部31bは、図6に示す如く、一方向の両端に一対の環状部330,330が設けられている。一対の環状部330,330は、径方向内側に延出している。一対の環状部330,330間には、ピストン本体31aが介装されている。本実施形態に係る外輪部31bは、ピストン本体31a回りで回転したときに、一対の環状部330,330がピストン本体31aの軸心方向の両面に摺接するようになっている。これにより、本実施形態に係る外輪部31bは、ピストン本体31a回りで単独で回転しつつも、ピストン本体31aと一緒に一方向に移動できようになっている。
In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, the outer ring portion 31b is provided with a pair of annular portions 330 and 330 at both ends in one direction. The pair of annular portions 330 and 330 extend radially inward. A piston main body 31 a is interposed between the pair of annular portions 330 and 330. When the outer ring portion 31b according to the present embodiment rotates around the piston main body 31a, the pair of annular portions 330, 330 are in sliding contact with both axial surfaces of the piston main body 31a. Thereby, the outer ring portion 31b according to the present embodiment can move in one direction together with the piston main body 31a while rotating independently around the piston main body 31a.
なお、図示しないが、ピストン部31(外輪部31b)の外周の全周には、無端環状の溝が形成される。そして、その溝には、Oリングが嵌着される。これにより、本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、ピストン部31の一方向(ピストンロッド3の軸心方向)における移動が許容されつつ、ピストン部31の外周面とシリンダ部21の内周面との間が液密になっている。
Although not shown, an endless annular groove is formed on the entire outer periphery of the piston portion 31 (outer ring portion 31b). Then, an O-ring is fitted into the groove.

弁機構7は、図8に示す如く、連通路320に軸線方向で移動可能に内挿された軸状弁70を備える。軸状弁70は、ボア20の第二端側に位置した状態で連通路320を遮断するとともに、ボア20の第二端側にある一端部がピストン部31から一方の閉塞部22に向けて突出するように構成されている。
As shown in FIG. 8, the valve mechanism 7 includes a shaft-like valve 70 inserted in the communication path 320 so as to be movable in the axial direction. The shaft-like valve 70 blocks the communication passage 320 while being positioned on the second end side of the bore 20, and one end portion on the second end side of the bore 20 is directed from the piston portion 31 toward the one closing portion 22. It is comprised so that it may protrude.
より具体的に説明すると、本実施形態に係る連通路320は、一方向でピストン部31(外輪部31b)を貫通するように形成されている。連通路320は、一方向の途中位置に設けられた大径穴部320aと、大径穴部320aと同心で連続し、該大径穴部320aの一端側(ボア20の第二端側)に設けられた中径穴部320bと、中径穴部320bと同心で連続する小径穴部320cと、大径穴部320aと同心で連続し、大径穴部320aの他端側(ボア20の第一端側)に設けられた小径穴部320cとを備える。
More specifically, the communication path 320 according to the present embodiment is formed so as to penetrate the piston portion 31 (outer ring portion 31b) in one direction. The communication path 320 is concentrically continuous with the large-diameter hole portion 320a provided in the middle of one direction and the large-diameter hole portion 320a, and one end side of the large-diameter hole portion 320a (the second end side of the bore 20). The medium diameter hole 320b provided in the inner diameter hole, the small diameter hole 320c concentrically continuous with the medium diameter hole 320b, the concentric continuous with the large diameter hole 320a, and the other end side of the large diameter hole 320a (bore 20). A small-diameter hole portion 320c provided on the first end side).
軸状弁70は、大径軸部70aと、大径軸部70aの両端から延出した一対の小径軸部70b,70bとを備える。
The shaft valve 70 includes a large diameter shaft portion 70a and a pair of small diameter shaft portions 70b and 70b extending from both ends of the large diameter shaft portion 70a.
大径軸部70aは、大径穴部320aに内装される。大径軸部70aの軸心方向の長さは、大径穴部320aの穴中心方向の長さよりも短く設定されている。大径軸部70aは、大径穴部320a内で軸心方向にスライド可能になっている。本実施形態に係る弁機構7は、大径軸部70aがボア20の第二端側に位置した状態で、大径軸部70aの端面が中径穴部320bと大径穴部320aとの境界に形成される段差に密接することで、連通路320を遮断するようになっている。
The large diameter shaft portion 70a is internally provided in the large diameter hole portion 320a. The length of the large-diameter shaft portion 70a in the axial center direction is set shorter than the length of the large-diameter hole portion 320a in the hole center direction. The large diameter shaft portion 70a is slidable in the axial direction within the large diameter hole portion 320a. In the valve mechanism 7 according to the present embodiment, the end surface of the large-diameter shaft portion 70a is formed between the medium-diameter hole portion 320b and the large-diameter hole portion 320a with the large-diameter shaft portion 70a positioned on the second end side of the bore 20. The communication path 320 is blocked by being in close contact with the step formed at the boundary.
一対の小径軸部70b,70bは、大径軸部70aと同心で設けられる。一対の小径軸部70b,70bは、小径穴部320cに挿通されている。一対の小径軸部70b,70bのうち、少なくともボア20の第二端側にある一方の小径軸部70bの軸心方向の長さは、大径軸部70aが大径穴部320aの一端側(ボア20の第二端側)にあるときに、先端部がピストン部31から外方に突出するように設定される。すなわち、一方の小径軸部70bの軸心方向の長さは、大径軸部70aが連通路320を遮断した状態で、先端部がピストン部31から外方に突出するように設定される。これに対し、他方の小径軸部70bの軸心方向の長さは、大径軸部70aが連通路320を遮断した状態で先端がピストン部31の一方向における一方側に向く(他方の閉塞部23と対向する)面と略面一になり、且つ、大径軸部70aが連通路320を開放した状態で(大径軸部70aが大径穴部320aの他端側(ボア20の第一端側)にあるときに)ピストン部31から外方に突出するように設定される。
The pair of small diameter shaft portions 70b and 70b are provided concentrically with the large diameter shaft portion 70a. The pair of small diameter shaft portions 70b and 70b are inserted through the small diameter hole portion 320c. Of the pair of small diameter shaft portions 70b, 70b, the length in the axial direction of at least one small diameter shaft portion 70b on the second end side of the bore 20 is such that the large diameter shaft portion 70a is on one end side of the large diameter hole portion 320a. The tip portion is set so as to protrude outward from the piston portion 31 when it is on the second end side of the bore 20. That is, the length in the axial direction of one small-diameter shaft portion 70b is set so that the tip portion protrudes outward from the piston portion 31 in a state where the large-diameter shaft portion 70a blocks the communication path 320. On the other hand, the length of the other small-diameter shaft portion 70b in the axial direction is such that the tip is directed to one side in one direction of the piston portion 31 with the large-diameter shaft portion 70a blocking the communication path 320 (the other obstruction) In the state where the large diameter shaft portion 70a opens the communication path 320 (the large diameter shaft portion 70a is the other end side of the large diameter hole portion 320a (the bore 20). It is set so as to protrude outward from the piston portion 31) when it is on the first end side).
弁機構7は、ボア20の第一端側に作動油が供給されたときの流体圧で軸状弁70(他方の小径軸部70bの先端面)がボア20の第二端側に押されることで、大径軸部70aが連通路320を遮断するようになっている。そして、弁機構7は、ピストン部31が前記ボア20の第二端側の限界位置に到達したときに、一方の小径軸部70bが一方の閉塞部22に接触することで軸状弁70全体がボア20の第一端側に押され、大径軸部70aの端面が中径穴部320bと大径穴部320aとの境界に形成される段差から離間することで、連通路320を開放するようになっている。
In the valve mechanism 7, the shaft-like valve 70 (the tip surface of the other small-diameter shaft portion 70 b) is pushed toward the second end side of the bore 20 by the fluid pressure when hydraulic oil is supplied to the first end side of the bore 20. Thus, the large-diameter shaft portion 70a blocks the communication path 320. Then, when the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position on the second end side of the bore 20, the valve mechanism 7 is configured such that one small-diameter shaft portion 70 b comes into contact with the one closing portion 22 so that the entire shaft-shaped valve 70 is disposed. Is pushed to the first end side of the bore 20, and the end surface of the large-diameter shaft portion 70a is separated from the step formed at the boundary between the medium-diameter hole portion 320b and the large-diameter hole portion 320a, thereby opening the communication path 320. It is supposed to be.
弁機構7は、連通路320を開放した状態でピストン部31をボア20の第一端側に移動させたときに、ボア20の第一端側に存在する作動油の抵抗で軸状弁70がボア20の第二端側に押し戻されるのを防止できるようになっている。すなわち、弁機構7は、軸状弁70をボア20の第一端側に付勢する弁付勢部材(弁付勢手段)71を備える。弁付勢部材71は、コイルバネで構成されている。弁付勢部材71は、ボア20の第二端側にある小径軸部70bに外嵌された状態で中径穴部320bに内装される。弁付勢部材71は、小径穴部320cと中径穴部320bとの境界に形成される段差と、大径軸部70aと小径軸部70bとの間に形成される段差とに反対向きの力を作用させるように配置されている。
When the piston mechanism 31 is moved to the first end side of the bore 20 with the communication path 320 opened, the valve mechanism 7 is driven by the resistance of the hydraulic oil existing on the first end side of the bore 20. Can be prevented from being pushed back to the second end side of the bore 20. That is, the valve mechanism 7 includes a valve urging member (valve urging means) 71 that urges the shaft-like valve 70 toward the first end side of the bore 20. The valve urging member 71 is constituted by a coil spring. The valve urging member 71 is housed in the medium-diameter hole portion 320b in a state of being fitted on the small-diameter shaft portion 70b on the second end side of the bore 20. The valve urging member 71 is opposite to the step formed at the boundary between the small diameter hole portion 320c and the medium diameter hole portion 320b and the step formed between the large diameter shaft portion 70a and the small diameter shaft portion 70b. It is arranged to apply force.
本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1は、以上の通りであり、次に、上記構成のアクチュエータ1の作動について説明する。
The actuator 1 according to the present embodiment is as described above. Next, the operation of the actuator 1 having the above configuration will be described.
本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、図6及び図7に示す如く、付勢部材303の付勢によって複数のプランジャ302のそれぞれが外輪部31bに向けて押される。これにより、各プランジャ302の先端が外輪部31bの内周面に常時接触した状態になる。しかしながら、外輪部31bの偏心穴(内穴)が回転軸4の回転中心に対して偏心している。これにより、少なくとも何れか一つのプランジャ302が外輪部31bの内周面によってプランジャ穴301に押し込まれる(図7参照)。
In the actuator 1 according to this embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, each of the plurality of plungers 302 is pushed toward the outer ring portion 31 b by the urging of the urging member 303. Thereby, the tip of each plunger 302 is always in contact with the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring portion 31b. However, the eccentric hole (inner hole) of the outer ring portion 31 b is eccentric with respect to the rotation center of the rotating shaft 4. Thereby, at least any one plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 by the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring portion 31b (see FIG. 7).
本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、モータの駆動が回転軸4に伝達される。これにより、回転軸4が回転する。そうすると、回転軸4のフランジ43に延設されたガイドバー6を介して外輪部31bに回転トルクが伝達される。外輪部31bは、回転軸4を回転中心にして回転し、ピストン本体31aに配置された複数のプランジャ302のそれぞれを順々に押圧してプランジャ穴301に押し込む。そして、回転軸4の回転に伴い、外輪部31bによる押圧が解除されたプランジャ302は、付勢部材303の付勢で外側(外輪部31bの内周面側)に突出する。
In the actuator 1 according to the present embodiment, the drive of the motor is transmitted to the rotating shaft 4. Thereby, the rotating shaft 4 rotates. If it does so, rotational torque will be transmitted to the outer ring | wheel part 31b via the guide bar 6 extended in the flange 43 of the rotating shaft 4. FIG. The outer ring portion 31b rotates around the rotation shaft 4 and presses each of the plurality of plungers 302 arranged on the piston main body 31a in sequence into the plunger hole 301. As the rotary shaft 4 rotates, the plunger 302 released from pressing by the outer ring portion 31b protrudes outward (inner peripheral surface side of the outer ring portion 31b) by the biasing member 303.
従って、上記構成のアクチュエータ1においても、回転軸4を回転させることで、複数のプランジャ302のそれぞれがタイミングをずらしてプランジャ穴301内で往復動する。これに伴い、プランジャ穴301の空間(プランジャ302の存在しない領域)が容積変化する。これにより、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側にある作動油がプランジャ穴301に流入し、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に押し出される。
Therefore, also in the actuator 1 having the above-described configuration, each of the plurality of plungers 302 reciprocates within the plunger hole 301 by shifting the timing by rotating the rotating shaft 4. Accordingly, the volume of the space of the plunger hole 301 (the region where the plunger 302 does not exist) changes in volume. As a result, the hydraulic oil on the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary flows into the plunger hole 301 and is pushed out to the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary.
具体的には、プランジャ穴301に押し込まれたプランジャ302が外側(外輪部31b側)に移動するとき(空間容積が拡大するとき)に、ボア20内に充填された作動油(ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側にある作動油)が第一流路304に引き込まれる。そして、プランジャ302が最大に突出した状態で作動油の引き込みが完了する。この状態で、第一流路304内の逆止弁306の作用により、プランジャ穴301内に引き込まれた作動油がピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側に逆流することが防止された状態になる。
Specifically, when the plunger 302 pushed into the plunger hole 301 moves to the outside (outer ring portion 31b side) (when the space volume increases), the hydraulic oil (piston portion 31 is filled in the bore 20). Hydraulic fluid on the second end side of the bore 20 at the boundary) is drawn into the first flow path 304. Then, the drawing-in of the hydraulic oil is completed with the plunger 302 protruding to the maximum. In this state, the check valve 306 in the first flow path 304 prevents the working oil drawn into the plunger hole 301 from flowing back to the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary. It becomes a state.
これに対し、プランジャ302がプランジャ穴301に押し込まれるとき(空間容積が縮小するとき)に、プランジャ穴301内にある作動油が第二流路305を通ってピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に押し出される。そして、プランジャ302がプランジャ穴301に最大に押し込まれた状態で、ボア20の第一端側に対する作動油の押し出しが完了する。この状態で、第二流路305内の逆止弁307の作用により、ボア20の第一端側に押し出された作動油がプランジャ穴301側に逆流することが防止される。
In contrast, when the plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 (when the spatial volume is reduced), the hydraulic oil in the plunger hole 301 passes through the second flow path 305 and the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary. It is pushed out to the first end side. Then, in the state where the plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 to the maximum, the extrusion of the hydraulic oil to the first end side of the bore 20 is completed. In this state, the action of the check valve 307 in the second flow path 305 prevents the hydraulic oil pushed out to the first end side of the bore 20 from flowing back to the plunger hole 301 side.
このように、ボア20の第二端側にある作動油がボア20の第一端側に送られると、ボア20の第一端側が作動油で充満する。そして、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に作動油が充満した状態でさらに作動油が送り込まれると、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側の圧力が高まる。その結果、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側に押されてピストンロッド3が軸線方向に移動する。本実施形態に係るアクチュエータ1において、外輪部31bにガイドバー6が挿通されているため、外輪部31bは回転軸4の軸心を回転中心に回転しつつガイドバー6に沿って移動する。しかし、ロッド部30の回止用軸部30bが案内用穴225に挿入されている。そのため、ロッド部30及びピストン本体31aは、回転軸4の軸線回りで回転することなく、外輪部31bに押されて軸心方向にのみ移動する。
Thus, when the hydraulic oil on the second end side of the bore 20 is sent to the first end side of the bore 20, the first end side of the bore 20 is filled with the hydraulic oil. When the hydraulic oil is further fed in the state where the hydraulic oil is filled in the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary, the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary increases. . As a result, the piston portion 31 is pushed to the second end side of the bore 20 and the piston rod 3 moves in the axial direction. In the actuator 1 according to this embodiment, since the guide bar 6 is inserted through the outer ring portion 31b, the outer ring portion 31b moves along the guide bar 6 while rotating about the axis of the rotation shaft 4. However, the rotation shaft portion 30 b of the rod portion 30 is inserted into the guide hole 225. Therefore, the rod part 30 and the piston main body 31 a are pushed by the outer ring part 31 b and move only in the axial direction without rotating around the axis of the rotary shaft 4.
そして、ピストンロッド3がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置又は所定位置に到達した状態で、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側にある領域(ボア20)が作動油で充満した状態になる。
Then, in a state where the piston rod 3 has reached a limit position or a predetermined position on the second end side of the bore 20, a region (bore 20) on the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary is hydraulic oil. It will be in a full state.
この状態で、ボア20の第一端側にある領域内の圧力上昇が止まる。そのため、ピストンロッド3がリターンスプリング5の付勢でボア20の第一端側に向けて移動する。アクチュエータ1は、弁機構7を備えている。そのため、ピストンロッド3がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置に到達した状態で、弁機構7が連通路320を開放することで、ボア20の第一端側の領域内にある作動油がボア20の第二端側の領域に流れ込んでボア20の第一端側の領域(ボア20)内の圧力が低下する。
In this state, the pressure increase in the region on the first end side of the bore 20 stops. Therefore, the piston rod 3 moves toward the first end side of the bore 20 by the bias of the return spring 5. The actuator 1 includes a valve mechanism 7. Therefore, when the piston rod 3 reaches the limit position on the second end side of the bore 20, the valve mechanism 7 opens the communication path 320, so that the hydraulic oil in the region on the first end side of the bore 20 is present. Flows into the region on the second end side of the bore 20 and the pressure in the region on the first end side of the bore 20 (bore 20) decreases.
すなわち、アクチュエータ1は、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側の限界位置に到達すると、弁機構7の軸状弁70の一方の小径軸部70bが一方の閉塞部22の内面に当接して他方の閉塞部23側に押されて連通路320が開放(連通)する。これにより、ボア20の第一端側の作動油が連通路320を介してボア20の第二端側に流れ、一方側のボア20の圧力が低下する。これに伴い、リターンスプリング5の付勢力でピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に向けて迅速に移動する。
That is, in the actuator 1, when the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position on the second end side of the bore 20, one small-diameter shaft portion 70 b of the shaft-like valve 70 of the valve mechanism 7 comes into contact with the inner surface of the one closing portion 22. Then, the communication passage 320 is pushed (communication) by being pushed toward the other closing portion 23 side. As a result, the hydraulic oil on the first end side of the bore 20 flows to the second end side of the bore 20 via the communication path 320, and the pressure of the bore 20 on one side decreases. Along with this, the piston portion 31 quickly moves toward the first end side of the bore 20 by the urging force of the return spring 5.
そして、回転軸4を回転させ続けても、連通路320を介してボア20の第一端側からボア20の第二端側に作動油が流れ込み、ボア20の第一端側の圧力が上昇しない。そのため、リターンスプリング5の付勢力がボア20の第一端側の圧力に勝り、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に迅速に押し戻される。
Even if the rotating shaft 4 continues to rotate, the hydraulic fluid flows from the first end side of the bore 20 to the second end side of the bore 20 through the communication path 320, and the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 increases. do not do. Therefore, the biasing force of the return spring 5 overcomes the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20, and the piston portion 31 is quickly pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20.
そして、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に設定された限界位置に到達すると、軸状弁70の他方の小径軸部70bが他方の閉塞部23に当接する。これに伴い、軸状弁70全体がボア20の第二端側に押され、連通路320が遮断される。これにより、ボア20の第一端側に作動油が供給されたときに、当該領域が圧力上昇できる状態になる。
When the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position set on the first end side of the bore 20, the other small-diameter shaft portion 70 b of the shaft-like valve 70 comes into contact with the other closing portion 23. Accordingly, the entire shaft-like valve 70 is pushed to the second end side of the bore 20, and the communication path 320 is blocked. As a result, when the hydraulic oil is supplied to the first end side of the bore 20, the region can be in a state where the pressure can be increased.
従って、アクチュエータ1は、上記動作が繰り返されることで、ピストンロッド3のロッドが軸線方向で往復動する。
Therefore, the actuator 1 reciprocates in the axial direction of the rod of the piston rod 3 by repeating the above operation.
以上のように、上記構成のアクチュエータ1は、シリンダ本体2内(ボア20内)のピストン部31に作動油の流体圧を作用させてピストンロッド3を移動させる。これにより、アクチュエータ1は、油圧シリンダと同等の性能を発揮することができる。また、アクチュエータ1は、シリンダ本体2内のみで作動油を流動させるとともに、シリンダ本体2内に作動油を流動させる構成が内装される。これにより、アクチュエータ1は、小型化及び軽量化したものになる。
As described above, the actuator 1 configured as described above moves the piston rod 3 by applying the fluid pressure of the hydraulic oil to the piston portion 31 in the cylinder body 2 (in the bore 20). Thereby, the actuator 1 can exhibit the performance equivalent to a hydraulic cylinder. In addition, the actuator 1 includes a configuration in which the hydraulic oil flows only in the cylinder body 2 and the hydraulic oil flows in the cylinder body 2. Thereby, the actuator 1 is reduced in size and weight.
なお、本発明は、上記各実施形態に限定されるものではなく、本発明の要旨を逸脱しない範囲で適宜変換を加え得ることは勿論である。
It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and it is needless to say that appropriate conversion can be added without departing from the gist of the present invention.
上記各実施形態において、複数のプランジャ穴301が形成され、これらにプランジャ302と付勢部材303とが内装されたが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、一つのプランジャ穴301が形成され、これにプランジャ302と付勢部材303とが内装されてもよい。この場合、これに対応して逆止弁306,307の内装された第一流路304及び第二流路305が設けられる。このようにしてもプランジャ302がプランジャ穴301内で往復動する。従って、ボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に作動油が送り込まれ、ピストンロッド3が一方向(軸心方向)で移動する。なお、ピストンロッド3の移動速度を速めるには、上記各実施形態と同様に複数のプランジャ穴301を形成し、これらにプランジャ302と付勢部材303を内装するとともに、それぞれに対応して逆止弁306,307の内装された第一流路304及び第二流路305が設けられればよい。
In each of the above embodiments, a plurality of plunger holes 301 are formed, and a plunger 302 and an urging member 303 are internally provided therein. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a single plunger hole 301 may be formed, and a plunger 302 and a biasing member 303 may be housed therein. In this case, a first flow path 304 and a second flow path 305 in which check valves 306 and 307 are installed are provided correspondingly. Even in this way, the plunger 302 reciprocates in the plunger hole 301. Accordingly, the hydraulic oil is fed from the second end side of the bore 20 to the first end side of the bore 20, and the piston rod 3 moves in one direction (axial direction). In order to increase the moving speed of the piston rod 3, a plurality of plunger holes 301 are formed in the same manner as in the above embodiments, and a plunger 302 and a biasing member 303 are housed in these holes. What is necessary is just to provide the 1st flow path 304 and the 2nd flow path 305 by which the valves 306 and 307 were equipped.
上記各実施形態において、ボア20の第一端側に作動油が供給されることで、ピストン部31(ピストンロッド3)がボア20の第二端側に移動するとともに、リターンスプリング5の付勢力でピストン部31(ピストンロッド3)がボア20の第一端側に押し戻されるようにしたが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、ボア20の第二端側に作動油が供給されることで、ピストン部31(ピストンロッド3)がボア20の第一端側に移動するとともに、リターンスプリング5の付勢力でピストン部31(ピストンロッド3)がボア20の第二端側に押し戻されるようにしてもよい。この場合、リターンスプリング5がシリンダ本体2のボア20の第一端側に内装される。また、ボア20の第一端側に向けて開口してプランジャ穴301に連通する第一流路304、及び前記ボア20の第二端側に向けて開口してプランジャ穴301に連通する第二流路305がプランジャ穴301に対応して設けられる。そして、第一流路304及び第二流路305のそれぞれに前記ボア20の第一端側からボア20の第二端側に向けての作動油の流通を許容する一方で、ボア20の第二端側からボア20の第一端側に向けての作動油の流通を阻止する逆止弁306.307が内装される。
In each of the above embodiments, the hydraulic oil is supplied to the first end side of the bore 20, whereby the piston portion 31 (piston rod 3) moves to the second end side of the bore 20 and the urging force of the return spring 5. The piston portion 31 (piston rod 3) is pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20, but is not limited to this. For example, when hydraulic oil is supplied to the second end side of the bore 20, the piston portion 31 (piston rod 3) moves to the first end side of the bore 20 and the urging force of the return spring 5 causes the piston portion 31 to move. The (piston rod 3) may be pushed back to the second end side of the bore 20. In this case, the return spring 5 is provided on the first end side of the bore 20 of the cylinder body 2. Also, a first flow path 304 that opens toward the first end side of the bore 20 and communicates with the plunger hole 301, and a second flow that opens toward the second end side of the bore 20 and communicates with the plunger hole 301. A path 305 is provided corresponding to the plunger hole 301. While allowing the hydraulic fluid to flow from the first end side of the bore 20 toward the second end side of the bore 20 in each of the first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305, A check valve 306.307 is provided to prevent the flow of hydraulic oil from the end side toward the first end side of the bore 20.
また、この場合においても、弁機構7が設けられ得る。かかる弁機構7において、軸状弁70は、ボア20の第一端側に位置した状態で連通路を遮断するとともに、ボア20の第一端側にある一端部がピストン部31から一方側にある閉塞部に向けて突出するように構成される。また、軸状弁70は、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に設定された限界位置又は所定位置に位置した状態で、軸状弁の一端部が一方側にある閉塞部と干渉して該軸状弁がボア20の第二端側に移動し、連通路が開放されるように構成される。
Also in this case, the valve mechanism 7 can be provided. In such a valve mechanism 7, the shaft-like valve 70 blocks the communication path while being positioned on the first end side of the bore 20, and the one end portion on the first end side of the bore 20 extends from the piston portion 31 to the one side. It is comprised so that it may protrude toward a certain obstruction | occlusion part. In addition, the shaft-like valve 70 is in a state where the piston portion 31 is located at a limit position or a predetermined position set on the first end side of the bore 20, and one end portion of the shaft-like valve interferes with a closing portion on one side. Thus, the shaft-like valve is configured to move to the second end side of the bore 20 to open the communication path.
上記各実施形態において、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側とボア20の第二端側とを連通させる連通路320がピストン部31に貫通して設けられ、連通路320に弁機構7が内装されたが、これに限定されない。例えば、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側とボア20の第二端側とを連通させる連通路320のみがピストン部31に設けられてもよい。このようにしても、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置に来ると、ボア20内の作動油の略全量がボア20の第一端側にある。そのため、圧力上昇が止まり、ボア20の第一端側にある作動油が、連通路320からボア20の第二端側に流れる。従って、リターンスプリング5の付勢力により、ピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に押し戻される。
In each of the above embodiments, the communication passage 320 that communicates the first end side of the bore 20 and the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary is provided to penetrate the piston portion 31. Although the valve mechanism 7 is built in, it is not limited to this. For example, only the communication path 320 that communicates the first end side of the bore 20 and the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary may be provided in the piston portion 31. Even if it does in this way, when the piston part 31 comes to the limit position which exists in the 2nd end side of the bore 20, the substantially whole quantity of the hydraulic fluid in the bore 20 will exist in the 1st end side of the bore 20. FIG. Therefore, the pressure increase stops and the hydraulic oil on the first end side of the bore 20 flows from the communication path 320 to the second end side of the bore 20. Accordingly, the piston portion 31 is pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20 by the urging force of the return spring 5.
また、ロッド部30が外方に突出した状態で、回転軸4の回転を止めるようにすれば、ボア20の第一端側の圧力が上昇することがない。そのため、連通路320を設けなくても、リターンスプリング5の付勢力でピストン部31がボア20の第一端側に押し戻され得る。
Further, if the rotation of the rotating shaft 4 is stopped in a state where the rod portion 30 protrudes outward, the pressure on the first end side of the bore 20 does not increase. Therefore, the piston portion 31 can be pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20 by the urging force of the return spring 5 without providing the communication path 320.
上記各実施形態において、ピストン部31に第一流路304及び第二流路305が形成されるとともに、第一流路304及び第二流路305のそれぞれに玉弁308,310及びコイルバネ309,311が内装され、これらが逆止弁306,307を構成したが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、独立した逆止弁306,307(ユニットとして組み立てられた逆止弁306,307)が第一流路304及び第二流路305に内装されても勿論よい。
In each of the above embodiments, the first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305 are formed in the piston portion 31, and the ball valves 308 and 310 and the coil springs 309 and 311 are provided in the first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305, respectively. Although these are built in and constitute the check valves 306 and 307, they are not limited thereto. For example, of course, independent check valves 306 and 307 ( check valves 306 and 307 assembled as a unit) may be incorporated in the first flow path 304 and the second flow path 305.
上記各実施形態において、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側とボア20の第二端側とを連通させる連通路320がピストン部31に形成されたが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、シリンダ部21の外側に配置した配管を介し、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側とボア20の第二端側とが連通されてもよい。この場合、配管上に仕切弁等の弁機構が設けられ、ボア20内の圧力を開放できるようにしてもよい。このようにすれば、上記実施形態と同様に、ピストン部31(ピストンロッド3)が迅速に押し戻され得る。
In each of the above embodiments, the communication passage 320 that connects the first end side of the bore 20 and the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary is formed in the piston portion 31, but is not limited thereto. It is not a thing. For example, the first end side of the bore 20 and the second end side of the bore 20 may be communicated with each other via a pipe disposed outside the cylinder portion 21. In this case, a valve mechanism such as a gate valve may be provided on the pipe so that the pressure in the bore 20 can be released. If it does in this way, piston part 31 (piston rod 3) can be pushed back rapidly like the above-mentioned embodiment.
また、弁機構7は、上記各実施形態で説明したものに限定されるものではない。例えば、弁機構7は、図9(a)及び図9(b)に示す如く、加圧側のボア20(上記実施形態においてはボア20の第一端側)と連通するバイパス流路321が連通路320の途中位置に接続されるとともに、軸状弁70の途中位置に大径軸部70aが形成され、該大径軸部70aの外周面が連通路320の内周面上を摺接しつつ軸心方向に移動するようにしてもよい。
Further, the valve mechanism 7 is not limited to those described in the above embodiments. For example, as shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B, the valve mechanism 7 has a bypass flow path 321 communicating with the pressure side bore 20 (in the above embodiment, the first end side of the bore 20). A large-diameter shaft portion 70a is formed at an intermediate position of the shaft-like valve 70 while being connected to an intermediate position of the passage 320, and an outer peripheral surface of the large-diameter shaft portion 70a is in sliding contact with an inner peripheral surface of the communication passage 320. You may make it move to an axial direction.
この場合、大径軸部70aがバイパス流路321の接続位置よりも負圧側のボア20側に変位したときに、バイパス流路321が加圧側のボア20(領域)と連通する。これに対し、大径軸部70aがバイパス流路321の接続位置よりも加圧側のボア20側に変位したときに、バイパス流路321が負圧側のボア20と連通する。
In this case, when the large-diameter shaft portion 70a is displaced toward the bore 20 on the negative pressure side with respect to the connection position of the bypass flow path 321, the bypass flow path 321 communicates with the bore 20 (region) on the pressurization side. On the other hand, when the large-diameter shaft portion 70a is displaced to the pressure side bore 20 side relative to the connection position of the bypass flow path 321, the bypass flow path 321 communicates with the negative pressure side bore 20.
従って、上記構成の弁機構7をピストン部31に内装する場合、大径軸部70aに対して負圧側のボア20(上記実施形態においてはボア20の第二端側)に向けて突出する小径軸部70bが設けられ、ピストン部31が負圧側の限界位置に到達したときに小径軸部70bがシリンダ本体2(閉塞部22)に接触し、大径軸部70a)を加圧側のボア20に向けて移動させるようにすれば、上記実施形態と同様の作用及び効果を奏することができる。
Therefore, when the valve mechanism 7 having the above-described configuration is housed in the piston portion 31, the small diameter projecting toward the bore 20 on the negative pressure side (the second end side of the bore 20 in the above embodiment) with respect to the large-diameter shaft portion 70a. A shaft portion 70b is provided, and when the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position on the negative pressure side, the small diameter shaft portion 70b comes into contact with the cylinder body 2 (blocking portion 22), and the large diameter shaft portion 70a) is connected to the bore 20 on the pressure side. If it is made to move toward, the same operations and effects as in the above embodiment can be obtained.
上記第二実施形態において、回転軸4が、他方の閉塞部23に挿通される軸本体部41、シリンダ本体2内に配置されるフランジ43、及びフランジ43に延設されたガイドバー6で構成され、該ガイドバー6が外輪部31bに挿通されたが、これに限定されない。例えば、図10に示す態様にすることもできる。
In the second embodiment, the rotary shaft 4 is constituted by the shaft main body portion 41 inserted into the other closing portion 23, the flange 43 disposed in the cylinder main body 2, and the guide bar 6 extended to the flange 43. Although the guide bar 6 is inserted through the outer ring portion 31b, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the embodiment shown in FIG.
具体的には、図10に示すアクチュエータ1は、ピストン部31を第二実施形態と同様に構成することを前提としている。従って、ここではピストン部31の説明は、第二実施形態の説明が代用される。そして、ピストンロッド3のロッド部30がシリンダ本体2(一方の閉塞部22)に対して軸心回りで回転可能に挿通される。他方の閉塞部23の外面には、ボア20の中心と同心をなす回転軸4が設けられる。また、他方の閉塞部23の内面には、一方の閉塞部22に向けて延出するガイドバー6が設けられる。ガイドバー6は、外輪部31bに挿通される。なお、図10において、リターンスプリング5は、ロッド部30に外嵌されている。しかしながら、リターンスプリング5は、ピストン部31を付勢できればよく、ガイドバー6に外嵌してもよいし、その他の箇所に配置してもよい。
Specifically, the actuator 1 shown in FIG. 10 is based on the premise that the piston portion 31 is configured in the same manner as in the second embodiment. Therefore, here, the description of the piston part 31 is substituted for the description of the second embodiment. Then, the rod portion 30 of the piston rod 3 is inserted into the cylinder body 2 (one closing portion 22) so as to be rotatable around the axis. A rotating shaft 4 that is concentric with the center of the bore 20 is provided on the outer surface of the other closing portion 23. Further, a guide bar 6 extending toward the one closing portion 22 is provided on the inner surface of the other closing portion 23. The guide bar 6 is inserted through the outer ring portion 31b. In FIG. 10, the return spring 5 is fitted on the rod portion 30. However, the return spring 5 only needs to be able to urge the piston portion 31, and may be externally fitted to the guide bar 6 or may be disposed at other locations.
このようにすれば、モータの駆動が伝達され、回転軸4が回転すると、回転軸4とともにシリンダ本体2が回転軸4と同心で回転する。従って、シリンダ本体2を構成する他方の閉塞部23から延出するガイドバー6も回転軸4と同心で回転する。
In this way, when the drive of the motor is transmitted and the rotating shaft 4 rotates, the cylinder body 2 rotates concentrically with the rotating shaft 4 together with the rotating shaft 4. Accordingly, the guide bar 6 extending from the other closing portion 23 constituting the cylinder body 2 also rotates concentrically with the rotating shaft 4.
これに伴い、ガイドバー6を介して外輪部31bに回転トルクが伝達され、該外輪部31bが回転軸4と同心で回転する。そうすると、外輪部31bの内周面がプランジャ302を押圧する状態とプランジャ302を押圧しない状態とに交互に切り替わる。
Accordingly, rotational torque is transmitted to the outer ring portion 31b via the guide bar 6, and the outer ring portion 31b rotates concentrically with the rotating shaft 4. Then, the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring portion 31b is alternately switched between a state where the plunger 302 is pressed and a state where the plunger 302 is not pressed.
その結果、プランジャ302は、外輪部31bの内周面による押圧でプランジャ穴301に押し込まれた状態と、付勢部材303の付勢でプランジャ穴301から外側に突出した状態とに切り変わる。そうすると、プランジャ302の出退に伴い、プランジャ穴301の空間(付勢部材303の内装された領域)が容積変化することになる。従って、ピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第二端側にある作動油がプランジャ穴301に流入してピストン部31を境にしたボア20の第一端側に押し出される。これにより、ボア20の第一端側が圧力上昇し、ピストンロッド3がボア20の第二端側に移動する。
As a result, the plunger 302 is switched between a state in which the plunger 302 is pushed into the plunger hole 301 by pressing by the inner peripheral surface of the outer ring portion 31b and a state in which the plunger 302 protrudes outward from the plunger hole 301 by urging of the urging member 303. Then, as the plunger 302 moves in and out, the space of the plunger hole 301 (the region in which the urging member 303 is housed) changes in volume. Accordingly, the hydraulic oil on the second end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary flows into the plunger hole 301 and is pushed out to the first end side of the bore 20 with the piston portion 31 as a boundary. Thereby, the pressure at the first end of the bore 20 increases, and the piston rod 3 moves to the second end of the bore 20.
そして、第二実施形態と同様に、ピストン部31がボア20の第二端側にある限界位置又は所定位置に到達したときに、ボア20の第一端側の圧力上昇が止まるため、リターンスプリング5による付勢力でピストンロッド3がボア20の第一端側に押し戻される。特に、図10に示すアクチュエータ1においても、連通路320及び弁機構7を備えるため、弁機構7が連通路320を開放することで、リターンスプリング5による付勢力でピストンロッド3が高速でボア20の第一端側に押し戻される。従って、上記構成のアクチュエータ1においても、上記動作を繰り返すことで、ピストンロッド3が一方向に往復動する。
As in the second embodiment, when the piston portion 31 reaches the limit position or the predetermined position on the second end side of the bore 20, the pressure increase on the first end side of the bore 20 stops, so that the return spring The piston rod 3 is pushed back to the first end side of the bore 20 by the urging force of 5. In particular, since the actuator 1 shown in FIG. 10 also includes the communication path 320 and the valve mechanism 7, the valve mechanism 7 opens the communication path 320, so that the piston rod 3 is bored at a high speed by the urging force of the return spring 5. Is pushed back to the first end side. Therefore, also in the actuator 1 having the above configuration, the piston rod 3 reciprocates in one direction by repeating the above operation.
上記第二実施形態において、弁機構7を外輪部31bに内装したが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、ピストン本体31aに連通路320が形成され、連通路320内に弁機構7が内装されても勿論よい。
In the second embodiment, the valve mechanism 7 is provided in the outer ring portion 31b, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the communication passage 320 may be formed in the piston body 31a, and the valve mechanism 7 may be built in the communication passage 320.
上記第二実施形態において、ガイドバー6を支持するためのガイドリング44が設けられたが、これに限定されるものではない。例えば、ガイドバー6が回転軸4のフランジ43のみに支持されてよい。また、ガイドバー6が二つ設けられたものに限定されるものではない。例えば、ガイドバー6が一つ又は三つ以上設けられたものであっても勿論よい。
In the second embodiment, the guide ring 44 for supporting the guide bar 6 is provided, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the guide bar 6 may be supported only by the flange 43 of the rotating shaft 4. Moreover, it is not limited to the one provided with two guide bars 6. For example, the guide bar 6 may be provided with one or three or more guide bars.
上記各実施形態では言及しなかったが、本発明に係るアクチュエータは、モータが一体的に組み込まれたものや、減速機とモータとが一体的に組み込まれたものであってもよい。また、シリンダ本体は、機器のケースと一体的に形成され、その機器と分離不能に構成されてもよい。そして、本発明に係るアクチュエータは、手持ち工具の分野以外にも自動車分野、産業機械分野等、各種機械分野に採用することができる。
Although not mentioned in the above embodiments, the actuator according to the present invention may be one in which a motor is integrated, or one in which a speed reducer and a motor are integrated. Further, the cylinder body may be formed integrally with a case of the device and configured so as not to be separated from the device. The actuator according to the present invention can be employed not only in the field of hand-held tools but also in various machine fields such as the automobile field and the industrial machine field.
