DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS

First Embodiment

(9) A negative pressure pump of a first embodiment of the present invention will be described in accordance with FIG. 1 to FIG. 3.

(10) A negative pressure pump 10 of the present embodiment is a device that produces negative pressure by the rotation of a drive shaft 100 driven to rotate synchronously with a crankshaft of an engine (not illustrated in the drawings) serving as a motive power source, and is used in a negative pressure brake booster 110 of a vehicle. It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and a motor or the like may also be used as the motive power source of the negative pressure pump.

(11) As shown in FIG. 1, the negative pressure pump 10 has a casing 20, a pump portion 30 that is formed in the casing 20, and a clutch 44 and a clutch intermittent mechanism 50 that are housed in the casing 20.

(12) The casing 20 is configured by a first casing 22, inside of which the drive shaft 100, the clutch 44, and the clutch intermittent mechanism 50 are housed, and a second casing 32, which configures the pump portion 30.

(13) The first casing 22 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape and is configured by a cylinder portion 24, which includes one axial direction end portion 22A (the end portion on the right side in FIG. 1) of the first casing 22, and a cylinder portion 26, which forms the other section of the first casing 22, includes the other axial direction end portion 22B of the first casing 22, and is larger in diameter than the cylinder portion 24. The drive shaft 100 is inserted through the cylinder portion 24 and disposed inside the cylinder portion 26.

(14) An annular bearing 12 that rotatably supports the drive shaft 100 along an inner peripheral surface 24A of the cylinder portion 24 is attached to the inner peripheral surface 24A. Furthermore, a jutting wall portion 28 that juts inward in the radial direction is disposed on the one end portion 22A of the cylinder portion 24. The jutting wall portion 28 is in contact with a side surface 12A on one axial direction side (the right side in FIG. 1) of the bearing 12. Because of this jutting wall portion 28, the movement of the bearing 12 toward the one axial direction side is limited. It should be noted that the jutting wall portion 28 supports a later-described coil spring 56 via a flange portion 102 and a bearing 12. That is, the spring force of the coil spring 56 is received by the jutting wall portion 28.

(15) The flange portion 102, which is formed on the drive shaft 100, is in contact with a side surface 12B on the other axial direction side (the left side in FIG. 1) of the bearing 12.

(16) An annular member 54, to which an electromagnet 52 that configures the clutch intermittent mechanism 50 is attached, is fixed along an inner peripheral surface 26A of the cylinder portion 26 to the one end portion 22A side of the cylinder portion 26. The electromagnet 52 is a solenoid coil and is housed in a recessed section of the annular member 54, which is formed in a cross-sectional U-shape. An open portion 54A of the annular member 54 faces the other end portion 22B side of the first casing 22. Furthermore, a bottom portion 54B of the annular member 54 is in contact with a step surface 25 formed by the difference in diameter between the cylinder portion 24 and the cylinder portion 26. Moreover, a through hole 54C for passing through a cord 52A for applying a current to the electromagnet is formed in the bottom portion 54B of the annular member 54. The cord 52A passing through the through hole 54C passes through a through hole 26B formed in the cylinder portion 26 and is connected to a control unit 80. It should be noted that a waterproof member (not illustrated in the drawings) for preventing a later-described lubricant (in the present embodiment, engine oil) from leaking out from the first casing 22 is disposed in the through hole 26B.

(17) A drive-side clutch plate 46 that configures the clutch 44 is attached to the drive shaft 100 and disposed nearer to the other end side 22B of the cylinder portion 26 than the annular member 54. It should be noted that the drive-side clutch plate 46 of the present embodiment is configured by a disc portion 46A and a tapered portion 46B that juts out in a tapered shape from the outer peripheral edge portion of the disc portion 46A. The drive-side clutch plate 46 is movable in the axial direction of the drive shaft 100 and is configured to rotate integrally with the drive shaft 100. Furthermore, the drive-side clutch plate 46 is formed by a material that is magnetic (in the present embodiment, iron).

(18) The coil spring 56 is disposed between the annular member 54 and the drive shaft 100 in such a way as to surround the drive shaft 100. Specifically, the coil spring 56 is disposed between the flange portion 102 of the drive shaft 100 and the disc portion 46A of the drive-side clutch plate 46, has one end portion 56A (the end portion on the right side in FIG. 1) in contact with the flange portion 102, and has another end portion 56B in contact with a plate 47 attached to the disc portion 46A. Furthermore, the pressing force (spring force (elastic force)) of the coil spring 56 is set in such a way that the coil spring 56 presses the drive-side clutch plate 46 against a later-described driven-side clutch plate 48 and causes the drive-side clutch plate 46 to engage with the driven-side clutch plate 48. It should be noted that the coil spring 56 configures the clutch intermittent mechanism 50. Furthermore, the coil spring 56 of the present embodiment is an example of an elastic body of the present invention.

(19) Furthermore, the aforementioned electromagnet 52 can produce a magnetic force of an intensity countering the pressing force of the coil spring 56 and is configured in such a way that, by attracting by means of this magnetic force the drive-side clutch plate 46, it can pull the drive-side clutch plate 46 away from the driven-side clutch plate 48 and cancel the state of engagement between them (details described later).

(20) The second casing 32 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape and is configured by a cylinder portion 34, which includes one axial direction end portion 32A (the end portion on the right side in FIG. 1) of the second casing 32, and a cylinder portion 36, which forms the other section of the second casing 32, includes the other axial direction end portion 32B of the second casing 32, and is larger in diameter than the cylinder portion 34. The second casing 32 is connected to the other end portion 22B of the cylinder portion 26 in a state in which the cylinder portion 34 has been inserted inside the first casing 22. A distal end portion 40A of a driven shaft 40 extends from the inside of the cylinder portion 36, through the cylinder portion 34, and into the cylinder portion 26.

(21) An annular bearing 14 that rotatably supports the driven shaft 40 along an inner peripheral surface 34A of the cylinder portion 34 is attached to the inner peripheral surface 34A. Furthermore, a jutting wall portion 38 that juts inward in the radial direction is disposed on the other end side of the cylinder portion 34. The jutting wall portion 38 is in contact with a side surface 14B on the other axial direction side (the left side in FIG. 1) of the bearing 14. Because of this jutting wall portion 38, the movement of the bearing 14 toward the other axial direction side is limited.

(22) A disc portion 48A of the driven-side clutch plate 48 attached to the driven shaft 40 is in contact, via a packing 15, with a side surface 14A on one axial direction side (the right side in FIG. 1) of the bearing 14. It should be noted that the packing 15 is used to prevent leakage of the engine oil.

(23) It should be noted that the aforementioned jutting wall portion 38 receives, via the packing 15 and the bearing 14, the driven-side clutch plate 48 on which the pressing force of the coil spring 56 acts. That is, the spring force of the coil spring 56 is received by the jutting wall portion 38.

(24) A cover 39 is attached to the other end portion 32B of the cylinder portion 36. Furthermore, a suction port 37 (see FIG. 3) and a discharge port (not illustrated in the drawings) are disposed in the cylinder portion 36. The suction port 37 is connected to the negative pressure brake booster 110 via a check valve 90 having a check function. The check valve 90 is configured by a valve element 92, a valve seat 94 with which the valve element 92 is brought into contact and from which the valve element 92 is separated, and a spring 96 for pressing the valve element 92 against the valve seat 94, so that the check valve 90 allows the flow of a fluid (here, air) from the negative pressure brake booster 110 toward the suction port 37 and stops the flow of the fluid from the suction port 37 toward the negative pressure brake booster 110.

(25) A base end portion 40B of the driven shaft 40 formed in a cylindrical shape is disposed inside the cylinder portion 36. A groove (not illustrated in the drawings) that extends in the radial direction is formed in the base end portion 40B, and a plate-shaped vane 42 is disposed in the groove so as to be slidable in the groove extension direction. Because of this, the vane 42 receives centrifugal force because of the rotation of the driven shaft 40 and slides in the groove.

(26) Furthermore, the cylinder portion 36 of the present embodiment is formed in an elliptical cylindrical shape, and the driven shaft 40 is formed in a perfectly circular cylindrical shape. That is, the cross-sectional shape of an inner peripheral surface 36A of the cylinder portion 36 is an ellipse, and the cross-sectional shape of the outer peripheral surface of the driven shaft 40 is a perfect circle. For this reason, a space (gap) occurs between the inner peripheral surface 36A of the cylinder portion 36 and the outer peripheral surface of the driven shaft 40. Here, when the driven shaft 40 rotates, the vane 42 receives centrifugal force, moves outward from the groove in the base end portion 40B, and moves along the inner peripheral surface 36A, so the space between the inner peripheral surface 36A and the driven shaft 40 becomes partitioned into plural spaces by the vane 42. Additionally, in the present embodiment, because the suction port 37 is disposed on the major axis of the cylinder portion 36 and the discharge port (not illustrated in the drawings) is disposed on the minor axis, the capacities of the partitioned spaces gradually become smaller from the suction side toward the discharge side in accompaniment with the rotation of the driven shaft 40, and because of that change in capacity, negative pressure is produced by the cylinder portion 36. That is, negative pressure is produced by the pump portion 30 as a result of the driven shaft 40 rotating. It should be noted that the pump portion 30 is configured by the second casing 32 (the cylinder portion 36), the suction port 37, the discharge port (not illustrated in the drawings), the cover 39, the driven shaft 40, and the vane 42.

(27) Furthermore, a distal end portion 100A of the drive shaft 100 is inserted inside the distal end portion 40A of the driven shaft 40. Furthermore, a packing 16 is disposed between and in close contact with the driven shaft 40 and the drive shaft 100. The packing 16 is used to prevent leakage of the engine oil.

(28) A flow path 104 for guiding the engine oil from the engine to the pump portion 30 is formed inside the drive shaft 100. The engine oil traveling through the flow path 104 travels through the inside of the driven shaft 40 and is supplied into the cylinder portion 34. Because of this, frictional resistance between the inner peripheral surface 36A of the cylinder portion 36 and the vane 42 can be reduced.

(29) Furthermore, the driven-side clutch plate 48 that configures the clutch 44 is attached to the distal end portion 40A of the driven shaft 40. It should be noted that the driven-side clutch plate 48 of the present embodiment is configured by the disc portion 48A and a tapered portion 48B that juts out in a tapered shape from the outer peripheral edge portion of the disc portion 48A. The driven-side clutch plate 48 is movable in the axial direction of the driven shaft 40 and is configured to rotate integrally with the driven shaft 40. Furthermore, the driven-side clutch plate 48 is formed by the same material as the drive-side clutch plate 46.

(30) Furthermore, in the present embodiment, the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 are formed by nonmagnetic bodies (e.g., aluminum, resin). It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 may also be formed by magnetic bodies (e.g., iron).

(31) It should be noted that the connection between the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 can be accomplished with bolts, for example. In a case where the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 are formed by a metal material, they may be connected to one another by welding, and in a case where the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 are formed by a resin material, they may connected to one another by thermal fusing. That is, any method may be used to connect the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 to one another as long as it is one with which they can be connected to one another.

(32) A flow path 35 that guides the engine oil supplied into the pump portion 30 from the pump portion 30 to between contact surfaces of the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48 is formed in the pump portion 30. Specifically, a groove is formed along the axial direction in the inner peripheral surface 34A of the cylinder portion 34, and this groove forms the flow path 35 that communicates the inside of the cylinder portion 36 with the inside of the first casing 22 (the cylinder portion 26). It should be noted that the opening of the flow path 35 is formed in the neighborhood between the contact surfaces of the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48.

(33) The negative pressure pump 10 has the control unit 80. The control unit 80 is configured to control the current applied to the electromagnet 52. The control unit 80 applies the current when the negative pressure produced by the pump portion 80 exceeds a prescribed value. Specifically, the negative pressure produced by the pump portion 80 is measured by a pressure sensor 82, and the control unit 80 applies the current to the electromagnet when the measured value exceeds the prescribed value.

(34) Furthermore, the control unit 80 changes the current applied to the electromagnet 52 in accordance with the distance (hereinafter appropriately called a clutch gap) G (see FIG. 2) between a contact surface 46C of the drive-side clutch plate 46 and a contact surface 48C of the driven-side clutch plate 48. Specifically, the control unit 80 performs control in such a way as bring the attractive force (force of attraction) acting on the drive-side clutch plate 46 closer to a constant value by increasing the current applied to the electromagnet 52 to make the magnetic force stronger when the clutch gap G is large and reducing the current applied to the electromagnet 52 to make the magnetic force weaker when the clutch gap G is small. An example of the method of control performed by the control unit 80 will be described using FIG. 8, which shows the relationship between the current A applied to the electromagnet 52 and the force of attraction F acting on the drive-side clutch plate 46. It should be noted that the long dashed short dashed line G1, the solid line G1.5 and the dashed line G2 in FIG. 8 represent cases in which the clutch gap G is 1 mm, 1.5 mm, and 2 mm, respectively. As shown in FIG. 8, in order to obtain a force of attraction f, current values of a1, a2, and a3 become necessary for G1, G2, and G3. That is, when pulling the drive-side clutch plate 46 away from the driven-side clutch plate 48, the control unit 80 increases the current applied to the electromagnet 52 because the clutch gap G is the largest, and after the drive-side clutch plate 46 has been pulled away from the driven-side clutch plate 48, the control unit 80 reduces the current applied to the electromagnet 52 because the clutch gap G becomes smaller, and thus power consumption can be controlled.

(35) (Action)

(36) Next, the action and effects of the negative pressure pump 10 pertaining to the present embodiment will be described.

(37) In the negative pressure pump 10, the drive-side clutch plate 46 is pressed against, and engages with, the driven-side clutch plate 48 by the pressing force (spring force) of the coil spring 56, and thus the rotation of the drive shaft 100 is transmitted to the driven shaft 40 and the pump portion 30 produces negative pressure.

(38) When the electromagnet 52 produces the magnetic force counter to the spring force of the coil spring 56, the electromagnet 52 attracts by means of its magnetic force the drive-side clutch plate 46, so the drive-side clutch plate 46 is pulled away from the driven-side clutch plate 48 and the state of engagement between the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48 is canceled. Because of this, the pump portion 30 stops producing negative pressure.

(39) In this way, the negative pressure pump 10 can intermittently transmit the rotation from the drive shaft 100 to the pump portion 30, so energy loss of the engine serving as the motive power source can be reduced. Because of this, the fuel economy of the vehicle can be improved.

(40) Furthermore, in the negative pressure pump 10, the driven-side clutch plate 48 on which the spring force of the coil spring 56 acts is received by the jutting wall portion 38 disposed in the second casing 32. The one end portion 56A of the coil spring 56 is supported by the jutting wall portion 28 disposed in the first casing 22. Additionally, the drive-side clutch plate 46 that receives the spring force from the coil spring 56 and receives the magnetic force from the electromagnet 52 is movable in the axial direction of the drive shaft 100, so the action of the thrust force, caused by the spring force of the coil spring 56 and the magnetic force of the electromagnet 52, on the drive shaft 100 is controlled.

(41) Moreover, because the driven-side clutch plate 48 is movable in the axial direction of the driven shaft 40, the action of the spring force of the coil spring 56 on the driven shaft 40 is controlled.

(42) As described above, according to the negative pressure pump 10, the action of the thrust force on the drive shaft 100 driven to rotate by the engine can be controlled, and energy loss of the engine can be reduced by intermittently transmitting the rotation from the drive shaft 100.

(43) Furthermore, in the negative pressure pump 10, because the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 are each nonmagnetic bodies, the magnetic force produced from the electromagnet 52 is not transmitted (the magnetic force is not dispersed) to the first casing 22 and the second casing 32, so energy consumption can be controlled and the drive-side clutch plate 46 can be pulled away from the driven-side clutch plate 48.

(44) Moreover, in the negative pressure pump 10, the engine oil is supplied, through the flow path 35, to the contact surface 46C of the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the contact surface 48C of the driven-side clutch plate 48, so wear on the contact surfaces 46C and 48C of the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48 is controlled. Furthermore, heat produced by friction between the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48 is also controlled.

(45) Furthermore, because the drive-side clutch plate 46 and the driven-side clutch plate 48 are both formed so as to be movable in the same axial direction, the drive-side clutch plate 46 can be smoothly caused to engage with (refasten to) the driven-side clutch plate 48.

(46) Moreover, even if, for example, a disruption in the supply of current to the electromagnet 52 were to occur, the negative pressure brake booster 110 can be operated because the negative pressure pump 10 itself operates.

(47) Moreover, in the negative pressure pump 10, when the engine has stopped, sometimes the engine oil flows back and collects in the pump portion 30 because of the negative pressure in the pump portion 30. Thereafter, if the engine oil is pooled in the pump portion 30 when the engine restarts, there is the concern that the rotational resistance of the vane 42 will increase and that the startability of the engine will deteriorate. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the control unit 80 is given a configuration wherein the case of restarting the engine, when it is applying a current to a cell motor, for example, it applies the current to the electromagnetic 52 at the same time. When the current is applied to the electromagnet 52 in this way, the drive-side clutch plate 46 is pulled away from the driven-side clutch plate 48, so when the engine restarts, the pump portion 30 does not operate and no longer affects the startability of the engine. Additionally, after the engine starts up, such as when the cell motor switches off, for example, the control unit 80 stops applying the current to the electromagnet 52, and thus the negative pressure pump 10 is operated by the motive power of the rotating engine. Furthermore, at this time, the control unit 80 controls the current in such a way as to gradually lower the current to the electromagnet 52, and thus the vane 42 of the negative pressure pump 10 slowly rotates and discharges the engine oil in the pump portion 30 to the outside of the pump portion 30, so damage to the pump portion 30 can also be controlled.

(48) In the first embodiment, the negative pressure pump 10 is given a configuration where the first casing 22 and the second casing 32 are formed by nonmagnetic bodies, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration, and just the first casing 22 may be formed by a nonmagnetic body.

(49) In the negative pressure pump 10 of the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the negative pressure pump 10 is given a configuration where the drive shaft 100 is inserted from the first casing 22 of the negative pressure pump 10, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration and, like a negative pressure pump 11 of an example modification shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, may also be given a configuration where the drive shaft 100 is inserted from the second casing 32. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, in the negative pressure pump 11, the cylinder portion 24 is closed off by the jutting wall portion 28 of the first casing 22, an open portion is instead formed in the cover 39 of the second casing 32, and the drive shaft 100 is inserted from this open portion.

Second Embodiment

(50) Next, an example of a cylinder head cover 120 pertaining to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described in accordance with FIG. 6 and FIG. 7.

(51) The cylinder head cover 120 of the present embodiment is used to cover a cylinder head of an engine. The cylinder head cover 120 is equipped with the negative pressure pump 10 of the first embodiment. Furthermore, part of the cylinder head cover 120 configures (doubles as) the first casing 22 of the negative pressure pump 10.

(52) It should be noted that the cylinder head cover 120 may comprise a magnetic body or a nonmagnetic body, but in the present embodiment it is formed by resin.

(53) Next, the action and effects of the cylinder head cover 120 of the present embodiment will be described.

(54) Because the cylinder head cover 120 is equipped with the negative pressure pump 10, the action of the thrust force on the drive shaft 100 driven to rotate by the engine can be controlled, and energy loss of the engine can be reduced by intermittently transmitting the rotation from the drive shaft 100. Because of this, the fuel economy of the engine (vehicle) can be improved.

(55) Furthermore, because the cylinder head cover 120 forms the first casing 22, manufacturing costs can be reduced compared, for example, to a configuration where the cylinder head cover 120 and the negative pressure pump 10 are separate bodies.

(56) It should be noted that although the present invention has been described in detail in regard to specific embodiments, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments; it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that a variety of other embodiments are possible in the scope of the present invention.

(57) Furthermore, the disclosure of Japanese Patent Application No. 2013-157712, filed on Jul. 30, 2013, is incorporated in its entirety by reference herein.
