    [001] [001] The present invention relates to a magneto-rheological braking device with a fixed support and with at least two brake components. The magneto-rheological braking device according to the invention can be used in several technical fields to stop relative movements in relation to each other. The magneto-rheological braking device according to the invention can also be used as a haptic device and, for example, it can be used in the operation of technical devices on vehicles, aircraft, airplanes, ships, boats, agricultural technology (tractors, combined harvesters, harvesting machines, other field machines for agriculture), construction machines and material handling machines (forklifts ...) or in medical or industrial systems. The invention can also be used in operation or as an input device to / from washing machines, kitchen utensils / appliances and devices, radios, cameras and film cameras, hi-fi systems and television systems, devices smart, smart home appliances, laptops, PCs, smart watches, in a crown of wristwatches or as a spinning wheel on a computer mouse or other devices.
    [002] [002] Magneto-rheological fluids include, for example, the finest ferromagnetic particles, such as carbonyl-iron powder, which are distributed in an oil. Spherical particles with a production process-dependent diameter of 1 to 10 µm are used in magneto-rheological fluids, where the size and shape of the particles are not uniform. If that magneto-rheological fluid is influenced using a magnetic field, the carbonyl iron particles in the magneto-rheological fluid concatenate along the lines of the magnetic field with the result that the rheological characteristics of the magneto-rheological fluid (MRF) are considerably influenced depending on the shape and strength of the magnetic field.
    [003] [003] WO 2012/034697 A1 describes a magneto-rheological transmission apparatus comprising two components that can be coupled to each other and it is possible to influence the coupling intensity of said components. A duct is supplied with a magneto-rheological medium in order to influence the intensity of the coupling. The magneto-rheological medium is influenced in the duct through a magnetic field. The rotating bodies are provided in the duct and the regions that are at an acute angle and that contain the magneto-rheological medium are provided in the referred rotating bodies. The duct or at least a part of the said duct can be influenced by using the magnetic field of a device generating the magnetic field to selectively concatenate the particles and strut or release the rotating body. This magneto-rheological transmission device can also be used on a rotary knob to operate technical devices. Such a magneto-rheological transmission device makes and allows the transmission of particularly high forces or torques, while at the same time it is a relatively small structure.
    [004] [004] WO 2012/034697 A1 also describes a rotary knob or an operating button to which the actual knob is swiveled around an axis. The braking torque can be controlled through the magnetic field of an electric coil. If a higher braking torque that can be generated is desired, cylindrical rollers can also be used in place of spherical rotating bodies, with the result that the magnetic field acts on a longer stretch or a larger surface area . It has been shown, in particular, in the case of rotary buttons or operating buttons with a relatively small diameter that an extension of the bearing body does not necessarily lead to an increase in the maximum braking torque that can be generated. It has been proven that the reason for this is that the magnetic field is closed via the central axis or must pass through said central axis. The small diameter of the shaft limits the braking torque that can be generated, since the magnetic field required for the braking procedure is quickly saturated in the material (shaft). The material through which the magnetic field flows no longer allows a higher magnetic flux, which is why a more intense magnetic field cannot reach the rollers either. The smallest cross section through which the magnetic field flows throughout the magnetic circuit defines the maximum possible magnetic flux and, therefore, the maximum braking torque in the braking device. The use of longer rollers as rotating bodies can even have a disadvantageous effect on the braking torque that can be generated, since the magnetic field is distributed over the longest surface area of the roll. A lower field strength is applied. Due to the fact that the braking effect that can be achieved does not depend linearly on the magnetic field, but preferably increases disproportionately in the case of more intense magnetic fields, the braking effect that can be achieved accordingly decreases disproportionately in the case of weaker magnetic fields.
    [005] [005] It is, therefore, the objective of the present invention to provide a magneto-rheological braking device, which makes it possible to provide a high braking torque (torque) or a higher braking torque than in the prior art, in particularly in small or even particularly small diameters.
    [006] [006] This objective is achieved by virtue of a magneto-rheological braking device with the characteristics of the claim
    [007] [007] A magneto-rheological braking device according to the invention comprises a fixed support and at least two brake components. A first brake component is swiveled to the support and extends in an axial direction. The second brake component comprises a piece of sleeve which is made hollow and which can rotate around the first brake component. A gap is achieved between the first and second brake components. At least one, two or more rotating transmission components in particular are arranged in the clearance. The gap is filled at least in part with a magneto-rheological medium. In this case, the magneto-rheological medium lubricates the transmission components. The first brake component comprises a core that extends in the axial direction, said core being made from a magnetically conductive material and (at least) an electric coil that is wound in the axial direction around the core, with the result that a magnetic field of the electric coil extends across the first brake component.
    [008] [008] The first component of the brake defines an axial direction. However, the first brake component can also be carried out at least in regions at an angle to the axial direction. The phrase "that the core of the first brake component extends in the axial direction" is understood in the sense of the present invention since the core also extends at least essentially in the axial direction. The core may comprise an orientation that comprises a slight angle to the axial direction. As an example, the core can also be oriented at an angle of 2.5 ° or 5 ° or 10 ° or 15 ° in relation to the axial direction. It is also not necessary that the
    [009] [009] The magneto-rheological braking device according to the invention has many advantages. A considerable advantage of the magneto-rheological braking device according to the invention lies in the fact that the electric coil is supplied in the first brake component. A particular advantage arises from the fact that the electric coil is wound around the core, at least a significant part of the core, or the entire core, in the axial direction. As a consequence, the magnetic field of the electric coil extends transversely in relation to the axial direction of the first component of the brake (in other words, radially in relation to the longitudinal axis). This is a considerable difference from the previous technique described in WO 2012/034697 A1, where the electric coil is supplied in the external component and in which the windings of the electric coil extend concentrically around the axial direction. As a consequence, in the prior art a magnetic field is generated, which extends in the axial direction through the interior of the two components. The internal component, usually a thin wall depending on the construction, in the case of the prior art, consequently limits the cross section of the magnetic flux and, therefore, the maximum entire magnetic flux that must be achieved. Conversely, the magnetic field extends or the lines of the magnetic field extend in this case transversely in relation to it and consequently transversely through the first or internal brake component. An extension of the first brake component, in this case, increases the possible magnetic flux and, therefore, the braking torque of the same diameter. An extension of the first brake component, in this case, increases or permits the magnetic flow and therefore the braking torque with the same diameter. The winding (s) of the electrical coil, in the case of the present invention, is preferably (at least essentially) in a plane or closely adjacent to the plane, which includes the central axis of the axial direction. In contrast, in WO 2012/034697 A1, the central axis is perpendicular to the plane of the windings of the electric coil.
    [010] [010] In the case of the magneto-rheological braking device, the transmission components are at least partly surrounded by a magneto-rheological medium. In general, it is preferred that a magneto-rheological fluid be used as a magneto-rheological medium.
    [011] [011] It is preferable that multiple rotary transmission components in particular are arranged distributed over the periphery of the clearance. The transmission components can rotate in the gap and rotate with respect to each other, preferably at least in part during a rotation of the first and second brake components. A central component of the rotary drive component or of the rotary drive component as a whole is, in particular, dimensionally stable and does not change the external shape (at least significantly) during a rotation. It is preferable that the rotating drive component rotates at least a little while rotating the second brake component relative to the first brake component.
    [012] [012] In a preferred development, at least one transmission component is realized as a roller body. The term "rolling element", in the sense of the present invention, is understood to denote a rotating body which is suitable for rolling in play in the first or second brake component.
    [013] [013] It is preferable that at least one roll body comprises a cylindrical or spherical or round or rounded cross-section (essentially dimensionally stable). In particular, a roll body may comprise a cylindrical (elongated) section. The bearing body can be rounded at the ends or it can be made to taper at one point or it can be angular. Other sections and, in particular, final sections are also possible. It is particularly preferred that cylindrical rollers are used as rolling elements. A cylindrical roller body has the considerable advantage that the bearing body can be effective over the length of the cylindrical section. As a consequence, effectiveness increases.
    [014] [014] A considerable advantage of the present invention lies in the fact that a more intense braking torque can be generated by means of an extension of a cylindrical roller body as an example. At the same time as the bearing body extension, the electric coil can also be extended (conveniently) and the said electric coil extends in the longitudinal direction of the first brake component. A larger penetrating surface area (transverse surface area through which the magnetic field flows) is provided for the magnetic field, in the case of the present invention, an extension of the first brake component in the axial direction also increases the core cross section. As a result, it is possible to obtain a more intense braking torque by extending the first brake component in the axial direction.
    [015] [015] In preferred embodiments, at least some of the transmission components are realized from a magnetically conductive material. In particular, at least some of the transmission components are realized from a material
    [016] [016] In all embodiments, it is not necessary to increase the diameter of the first brake component to increase the braking torque that can be generated. Therefore, this is particularly important because many possibilities of use do not allow a larger outside diameter of a braking device or a larger outside diameter would be a significant competitive disadvantage (for example, an excessively large side adjustment wheel in the case of a re - clock). In order to intensify / increase the braking torque, the first brake component can be realized as axially longer, which is not a disadvantage or a small disadvantage in terms of the required installation space.
    [017] [017] In all embodiments, it is preferable that the part of the glove be made with a rotary knob. It is preferable that the part of the glove can be formed as a single piece with the rotary knob. In the case of such embodiments, it is preferable that the rotary knob or part of the glove is realized in the form of a "pot". The "cap" of the glove part can be connected to said glove part as a single piece or can be attached separately to said glove part.
    [018] [018] It is preferable that the part of the glove be made from a magnetically conductive material and provide an outer ring for the magnetic field. In order to generate a braking torque, the magnetic field penetrates transversely in relation to the axial direction through the first brake component and penetrates the play in the bearing bodies which are realized as magnetically conductive. The magnetic field leaves the roller bodies for the outer ring or the sleeve part. On the sleeve part, the lines of the magnetic field extend back to the other side of the first brake component and penetrate (on the opposite side) the gap back into the bearing bodies before the lines of the magnetic field re-enter the first brake component. A closed magnetic circuit or closed magnetic field lines is / are consequently provided.
    [019] [019] A shoring effect forms on the rolling elements under the influence of a magnetic field in the case of a relative rotation of the first and the second brake component in relation to each other, as described in WO 2012/034697 A1 . The description of this publication is made entirely by reference to this request. The braking torque in the case of the present invention is also generated through the shoring effect on the drive component or on the rolling elements or rotating bodies.
    [020] [020] It is preferable that at least one radial wall thickness of the sleeve part is at least half the thickness of a gap space width and / or a diameter of a transmission component. It is preferable that a radial wall thickness of the glove portion is greater than 3/4 the width of the clearance space and / or a diameter of a transmission component. The thickness of the
    [021] [021] In all embodiments, it is preferable that a length of the first brake component in the axial direction is greater than a length of a transmission component in the axial direction. If the transmission component in the axial direction is realized as shorter than the first brake component, this leads to a three-dimensional concentration of the magnetic field in the region of the edge of the transmission component or the bearing body. The magnetic field can practically only penetrate the clearance in the sections in which a transmission component or a roller body is located.
    [022] [022] It is preferable that a length of the clearance in the axial direction is at least twice as long as the length of a transmission component in the axial direction. It is also possible and preferred that two or more transmission components and, in particular, bearing bodies are arranged in the axial direction, one behind the other. In this case, it is possible, for example, for magnetically conductive transmission components and magnetically non-conductive transmission components to alternate in the axial direction, with the result that, for example, each second or third transmission component in the axial direction is carried out in a magnetically non-conductive manner. As a consequence, a concentration of the magnetic field is produced which is advantageous for the maximum braking torque that can be generated.
    [023] [023] It is preferred that the first brake component is made in an essentially cylindrical manner and comprises a cylindrical base body as a core and the electric coil or electric coils. It is also possible that, as an example, a ball is included for mounting the rotary knob and that ball can be arranged centrally at the distal end to provide a simple bearing arrangement between the first brake component and the second brake component. brake.
    [024] [024] It is preferable that the electric coil is wound in axial and transverse grooves in the body of the cylindrical base (from the first brake component). It is preferable that the axial grooves and the transverse grooves are filled at least in part with the casting compound. As a consequence, the magneto-rheological medium or the magneto-rheological fluid are prevented from penetrating the region of the coil wires. Otherwise, it could lead to fluid separation.
    [025] [025] In preferred embodiments, it is possible that the cylindrical base body (of the first brake component) is surrounded by a glove body that is fixedly connected to the cylindrical base body. In this case, a radial thickness of the glove body is preferably considerably less than half the width of the radial gap space. It is particularly preferred that the radial thickness of the glove body is less than 1/4 of the width of the radial gap space. It is particularly preferred that the radial thickness of the glove body is less than 1/6, 1/8 or 1/10 the diameter of a roll body. In particularly preferred embodiments, the glove body is made from a magnetically conductive material. The glove body provides a protective glove. As a consequence, abrasion of the casting compound as the rotating body is rotating is safely avoided. Fundamentally, none or just an extremely small amount of magnetic field penetrates the gap in the region of the foundry compound with the result that in the region of the foundry compound no significant force acts on the bearing body and, consequently, the foundry compound . However, in the case of continuous operation, wear can occur which is reliably prevented by means of a thin glove body. A thin body of the glove reduces magnetic loss, as only a small part of the magnetic field is short-circuited through the glove body
    [026] [026] It is preferable that the support comprises a cable gland. The connection cables for the coil and / or sensor cable and the like can be guided further through the support or through the support cable bushing. As a result, simple assembly and economical production procedures are possible.
    [027] [027] It is preferable that the support comprises a reception arrangement for the swiveling fixed connection to the first brake component. In this case, the support can receive the first brake component in a non-positive blocking and / or positive blocking manner. During operation, the braking torque between the first brake component and the second brake component is transmitted through the support.
    [028] [028] It is preferable that the support comprises a cylindrical bearing surface for a bearing arrangement and supports the part of the sleeve in a rotating manner on the support.
    [029] [029] It is preferable that a seal is arranged on the cylindrical bearing surface, in which the seal is arranged, in particular, closer to the gap than to the bearing arrangement. As a consequence, the bearing arrangement is reliably protected from the magneto-rheological medium. This modality enables compact construction and reliable operation. The bearing arrangement can be, for example, a sliding bearing or a roller bearing.
    [030] [030] It is preferable that the cylindrical bearing surface is hardened and / or comprises a surface quality superior to the external radial surface of the receiving arrangement. As a consequence, it is possible to reduce production costs.
    [031] [031] In advantageous embodiments, the cylindrical bearing surface comprises an outside diameter that is at least 3 mm smaller than an outside diameter of the support arrangement of the support.
    [032] [032] In preferred embodiments, the first brake component comprises a passage for an axis that is pivotally connected to the second brake component. In particular, the passage is made centrally in the first component of the brake. This modality makes it possible, for example, to connect a part of an angle sensor (for example, a rotary encoder) to the axis. This part of the angle sensor is then received in order to be protected against the external environment. The angle sensor can still be arranged as an example inside the magneto-rheological braking device, for example, inside the support. It is also possible that the axle extends to the console on which the magneto-rheological braking device is attached. So it is possible that a part of an angle sensor is received inside the console in a protected manner.
    [033] [033] It is preferable that the support is attached to a console. Another part of an angle sensor is preferably attached to the bracket or the console. As an example, a magnetic encoder can be attached to the axis and a detector can be attached to the support or console, with the result that the corresponding rotary signals can be detected in the event of rotational movement of the axis. In this case, it is possible to detect a relative positioning arrangement or an absolute positioning arrangement. It is preferable that the rotary encoder generates more than 10,000 pulses (increments) per revolution, particularly more than 30,000 pulses (increments) per revolution.
    [034] [034] It is preferable that a user interface, an operator panel, a monitor, a touchscreen with or without haptic feedback and / or at least one sensor is connected to the axial end that is opposite the support . This modality makes it possible, in addition to the operation, to also display or send information simultaneously during the operation. As an example, an operation button with a simultaneous output display is possible.
    [035] [035] In all embodiments, it is possible that a pressure sensitive sensor is connected to the support or that sensor is allocated to the support. As an example, a pressure sensitive sensor can be connected to the holder. However, it is also possible for a piezoelectric sensor to be connected to the bottom, etc. The support can also be realized in a two-part manner and can register an axial displacement of the two parts in relation to each other. In that case, tactile feedback can be provided.
    [036] [036] In all embodiments, it is preferable that a difference between an inner diameter of the glove part and an outer diameter of the first brake component is greater than 3 mm and less than 50 mm. It is also preferred that the outside diameter of the glove piece is between 15 mm or 20 mm and 90 mm. It is preferable that the height of the glove piece is between 10 mm and 60 mm. In all embodiments, it is preferable that a control device is included, which is implemented to provide a variable braking effect using the electric coil.
    [037] [037] In general, the present invention operates in a particularly preferred manner according to the basic principle of providing a shoring arrangement, in which a transmission component and, in particular, a roller body or a rotating body rolls in said transmission component at a specific distance from the walls. The shoring effect is provided by means of a magnetic field with the result that a high braking torque can be generated. In contrast to the prior art, in which a coil that is wound radially around the axis of a brake component generates a magnetic field in the axial direction of the brake component, according to the present invention, a magnetic field transverse to the (core) of the first brake component. Enhanced scalability is possible through the use of this axial coil. As a consequence, it is possible, by means of longer rolling bodies and an axially longer electric coil, to generate a scalable and greater braking torque. In this case, it is not necessary for the diameter of the first brake component to be selected as large to conduct a corresponding magnetic field since the surface area of the core (transverse surface area) increases with an axial extension of the core. Where applicable, axial length can also be reduced if only a relatively small braking torque is required. The installation space can be adapted accordingly.
    [038] [038] An additional advantage is that the exit of the electrical connection cable from the electrical coil is possible in a simple way, even for large-scale production. The sealing of the magneto-rheological braking device and the scale may be possible by simple means.
    [039] [039] Fundamentally, it is possible that the magneto-rheological braking device generates a higher torque on longer bearing bodies, as the operational length increases. Simultaneously, it is ensured, through the surface of the larger core, that the rolling elements are always exposed to a corresponding magnetic flux density. The strength of the magnetic field when "shoring" in the rolling elements can be selected higher than in the prior art. Long bearing bodies can be used to which a sufficiently strong magnetic field can be directed.
    [040] [040] In particular, the magnetic field generated by the electric coil passes radially through the core and then through the roll bodies and closes through the sleeve or the outer cylinder. In this case, the magnetic field lines connect once and, for example, in the lower half and once in the other, and, for example, the upper half of the glove part. In simple embodiments, the magnetic flux, therefore, runs in an essentially two-dimensional manner. In that case, it doesn't matter how long or how high the rolling elements are made. As a consequence, it is possible to obtain an arbitrary length scale, as the area of the transmitting surface of the magnetic field increases correspondingly. In the case of electrical coils coiled concentrically around the longitudinal direction of the first brake component (prior art), on the other hand, the surface area of the cross section always remains the same and, in this respect, forms a bottleneck to the magnetic field, as long as the diameter is not changed. A larger diameter of the first brake component, however, also changes the space requirements for installation, the dimensions of the installation and the weight of the magneto-rheological braking device. In addition, the torque intervals and rotation speeds of the rolling elements change, which is not always advantageous. In the case of a linear extension, as is the case with the present invention, this inversely does not change.
    [041] [041] If longer running bodies are used, the braking effect of a long roll may be better than in the case of two short rollers comprising the same total length. This is due, among other things, to the fact that more fluid in terms of distance must be displaced, since the edge is more distant
    [042] [042] In preferred embodiments, the magneto-rheological braking device comprises a diameter of the glove part between approximately 10 and 40 mm (+/- 20%) in the preferred embodiments of approximately 25 mm.
    [043] [043] In all embodiments, it is possible that the electric coil is made more elongated in the axial direction than in the bearing bodies. As a consequence, a concentration of the magnetic field in the rolling elements is achieved.
    [044] [044] In general, the invention provides an advantageous magneto-rheological braking device (“MRF brake”). In this case, the outer diameter of the MRF brake is generally predetermined, particularly in the case of haptic applications. In this case, there are ergonomic guidelines. Therefore, it is generally not possible to easily increase the cross section of the nucleus, as the outer diameter also increases (outer diameter of the button; In addition, more braking torque with an increasing outside diameter is required, since the torque intervals increase (the force of the finger, that is, the force (tangential) between the driving finger (s)) and the brake element or the external surface area of the brake element must or should remain identical, since, on the one hand, only a specific force can be applied by the user and the necessary forces are important on the fingers ( fingertips) for physical comfort during the performance procedure (operational quality).
    [045] [045] The electric coil in the case of the solution according to the invention extends axially (in contrast to the previous technique). The magnetic field generated by the coil passes radially through the core, then through the bearing body and closes through the outer cylinder (respectively through the opposite halves).
    [046] [046] It is advantageous that the MRF brake or haptic button can be scaled arbitrarily in length, since the transmitting surface of the magnetic field increases correspondingly. In the case of radial electric coils, the surface area of the cross section always remains the same and can form a bottleneck for the magnetic field, as long as the diameter is not changed. If the diameter is changed, many aspects change accordingly (torque intervals, rotation speed of the rollers ...), which is not always advantageous. In the case of a linear extension of the MRF brake according to the invention, this does not change.
    [047] [047] The invention achieves the objective of obtaining an MRF brake as simple as possible, but still, effectively scalable, the MRF brake referred to having a high braking torque while having a compact external diameter.
    [048] [048] The axial electric coil that is wound and launched (in the axial direction) around the core generates a magnetic field. This magnetic field closes through the bearing bodies and the part of the sleeve that forms an external cylinder, as described above. It is advantageous to shape the electric coil so that the MR fluid (carrier fluid) does not reach the empty spaces between the coil wires (capillary effect). Otherwise, it can lead to separation. Instead of a coil wire (cylindrical), it is also possible to use a flat copper material or other suitable material.
    [049] [049] The core, roller bodies and outer cylinder can be produced from a simple steel (for example, S235) without high demands on surface quality and hardness, said simple steel preferably has good magnetic properties. However, it is also possible to use (several stacked one above the other) bearing bodies or balls or transmission components in some other way. Spacers (guide plates) can be provided between the bearing bodies.
    [050] [050] It is not absolutely necessary that the space (gap) between the core and the outer cylinder is (almost) completely filled with rolling elements. Spacers that are made from a non-conductive magnetic material - together with the rolling elements that are made from a magnetically conductive material - can also be used between the roller bodies or one or more roller bodies.
    [051] [051] The core, together with the electric coil and the casting compound, are preferably centralized and fixed in a "support" (connection with non-positive locking or positive locking) and the counter torque is transmitted by this support to the console (base plate; receiver plate; compartment). The support preferably has a hole through which the cables are guided. It is preferable that a sealing element (for example, an O-ring) seals the cable in relation to the support or the interior, with the result that the fluid cannot escape from the inside out through the cable. In addition to the cable (coils), it is also possible for a temperature sensor cable or another sensor cable to be guided through this opening. The cylindrical surface of the tapered support is preferably provided in such a way that the said surface has characteristics of running surface (coated or hardened or similarly annealed with a higher surface hardness and low surface roughness).
    [052] [052] The support can also be produced from a material other than the core, bearing body or external cylinder. Reducing the diameter of the support on the bearing surface has the advantage that the friction radius of the sealing element is reduced, which reduces all friction. In addition, a bearing element can be used
    [053] [053] It is possible to connect a decorative element or other transmission element above the outer cylinder, for example, a rubberized button.
    [054] [054] When viewed axially from above, a sphere or spherical or spherically similar component (it may also be a hemisphere) is preferably between the outer cylinder and the casting compound. This guides the two parts in relation to each other.
    [055] [055] It is preferred that the ball is fixed on the casting compound and the inner axial face of the outer cylinder rotates with respect to said ball. A simple, low friction and economical bearing arrangement (bearing position) is therefore provided. A conical or similar shape is also possible. In place of this type of bearing arrangement, it is also possible to select any other type of bearing arrangement (for example, a sliding bearing or roller bearing).
    [056] [056] There is a space between the bottom of the roll and the seal. This space is used in particular as a reservoir and also as a temperature compensating space. A temperature compensating element (for example, an air-filled O-ring) can also be accommodated in this space. A filling opening or ventilation opening that can be closed can also be provided in this region on the part of the sleeve (or on the outer cylinder).
    [057] [057] It is preferable that at least one component through which the magnetic field flows is realized at least in part or entirely from the FeSi3P material.
    [058] [058] It is preferable that at least one microphone and / or a sound recognition device and / or a voice recognition device are included or allocated. A computer device can also be included. The sounds and / or voice commands can be evaluated locally and / or remotely. For example, a computer unit (processor) can be supplied locally. Processing can also be performed on a remote network and only the result - in other words, the command to be executed - can be returned.
    [059] [059] The invention also relates to a method for operating appliances using a braking device (adaptable) with a rotating brake component for manual rotation. In this case, the braking device is controlled depending on the manual rotation of the rotating brake component and at least also by means of at least one command that is identified by means of audible recognition.
    [060] [060] It is preferred that several voice commands and / or audible signals and / or clap signals can be identified and differentiated using audible recognition. The number of different and differentiable commands can be limited, however, it is not essential that they are limited.
    [061] [061] It is possible and preferable that sounds are received and processed locally and / or remotely.
    [062] [062] At least one magneto-rheological braking device is preferably controlled as described above.
    [063] [063] A voice controlled input can be used for the control procedure. It is possible and preferred in all cases that an adaptive braking device or an adaptive haptic operating device is used with a braking device. Adaptability can depend on the operating mode selected by the sound or, for example, by the voice command.

    [077] [077] Figure 1 illustrates a schematic perspective view of a magneto-rheological braking device 1 which is realized in this case as a haptic operation button 100 and is attached to a console 50 or comprises that console 50. The braking device - magneto-rheological gem 1 comprises a part of the sleeve 13 which is received in a rotating manner. It is possible to adjust the necessary torque to rotate the sleeve part 13.
    [078] [078] A user interface 43 is arranged on the upper side of the magneto-rheological braking device 1. This user interface 43 can be implemented as an example as a display device or as a possibility of sensing input. touch (touchpad, motion control and gesture control, image recognition ...).
    [079] [079] The haptic operation button 100 can be used as an example, to operate machines, medical devices or for use in and for the motor vehicle. It is also possible to use this haptic operation button on other utensils or other devices.
    [080] [080] Figure 2 illustrates a schematic view in simplified cross-section of a magneto-rheological braking device 1 according to the invention to influence the force transmission between two brake components 2 and 3. In this case, a body roller or rotating body 11 is provided between the two brake components 2 and 3 in fig. 2. The rolling element 11 in this case is realized as a ball 14. However, it is also possible to incorporate the rolling elements 11 as cylinders or ellipsoids, rollers or other rotating bodies. It is also possible to use rotating bodies as rotating bodies that are not rotationally symmetrical in the proper sense of the word, for example, a gear wheel or rotating body 11 that has a specific surface structure. The roller bodies 11 are not used for the bearing arrangement in relation to each other, but preferably to transmit torque.
    [081] [081] A duct 5 is provided between brake components 2 and 3, the duct in this case being filled with a medium 6. The medium, in this case, is a magneto-rheological fluid, which comprises, for example, a oil as a carrier fluid, in which ferromagnetic particles are supplied 19. Glycol, fat, water and viscous materials can also be used as a carrier medium without being limited to any material. The carrier medium may also be gaseous or the carrier medium may be omitted (vacuum). In this case, only particles that can be influenced by the magnetic field can be filled in the duct.
    [082] [082] Ferromagnetic particles 19 are preferably carbonyl-iron powder, where the particle size distribution depends on the specific application case. Specifically, a particle size distribution between one and ten micrometers is preferred, where, however, particles larger than twenty, thirty, forty and fifty micrometers are also possible. Depending on the application case, the particle size can also be clearly larger and even advance in the millimeter range (particle spheres). The particles can also comprise a specific coating / shell (titanium coating, ceramic shell, carbon shell etc.), so that said particles can better withstand the high pressure loads that occur depending on the application case. The magneto-rheological particles can be produced not only from carbonyl-iron powder (pure iron) for this application case, but, for example, they can also be produced from special iron (harder steel).
    [083] [083] The rolling element 11 is preferably rotated around its rotating axis 12 by means of the relative movement 17 of the two brake components 2 and 3 and runs practically on the surface of the brake component 3. The rolling element bearing 11 runs simultaneously on the surface of the other brake component 2, with the result that a relative speed 18 is provided at that location.
    [084] [084] In fact, the bearing body 11 does not have direct contact with the surface of the brake components 2 and / or 3 and, therefore, does not roll directly on the said brake component. The free play 9 of the bearing body 11 to one of the surfaces of the brake components 2 or 3 is, for example, 140 µm. In a specific embodiment with particle sizes between 1 µm and 10 µm, the free clearance is in particular between 75 µm and 300 µm and particularly preferably between 100 µm and 200 µm.
    [085] [085] The free play 9 is in particular at least ten times the diameter of a typical average particle diameter. The free play 9 is preferably at least ten times the largest typical particle. As a result of the lack of direct contact, there is a particularly low level of basic friction / force / torque during the relative movements of brake components 2 and 3 relative to each other.
    [086] [086] If the magneto-rheological braking device 1 is influenced using a magnetic field, the field lines will form depending on the distance between the roller bodies 11 and the brake components 2, 3. The rolling element 11 is made from ferromagnetic material and, for example, from ST 37 (S2305). ST 37 steel has a magnetic permeability µr of approximately 2000. Field lines (magnetic circuit) pass through the bearing body and are concentrated in the bearing body. A high density of magnetic flux prevails in the bearing body in the radial inlet surface area and in the surface area
    [087] [087] Despite the gap between the bearing body 11 and the brake components 2, 3, it is possible, by means of the relative speed of the surfaces in relation to each other, to place the roller bodies 11 in a rotating motion . Rotational movement is possible without and also with an active magnetic field 8.
    [088] [088] If the magneto-rheological braking device 1 is exposed to a magnetic field 8 of an electric coil 26 which is not shown in this case in figure 2, the individual particles 19 of the magneto-rheological fluid 6 concatenate along of the field lines of the magnetic field 8. It should be noted that the vectors that are marked in figure 2 represent only schematically approximately the region of the field lines that is relevant to influence the MRF. Field lines essentially enter perpendicular to the surfaces of ferromagnetic components in duct 5 and, in particular,
    [089] [089] Simultaneously, some material is placed in rotation on the periphery of the bearing body 11 by the magneto-rheological fluid, with the result that an acute-angle region 10 forms between the brake component 3 and the bearing body 11. One identical acute-angled region 10 forms on the other side between the bearing body 11 and the brake component 2. The acute-angle regions 10 can comprise, for example, a wedge shape 16 in the case of bearing bodies 11 which are realized in a cylindrical manner. Further rotation of the bearing body 11 is prevented as a result of the shim shape 16, with the result that the effect of the magnetic field in the magneto-rheological fluid is intensified since the medium 6 is held more intensely together in the region at an acute angle 10 by means of the magnetic field that is acting within the said region at an acute angle. As a consequence, the effect of the magneto-rheological fluid intensifies in the accumulated agglomerate (the contact in the fluid and, therefore, the cohesion or viscosity), which prevents the rotation or additional movement of the rotating body 11 .
    [090] [090] It is possible, by means of shim 16, to transmit significantly greater forces or torques than would be possible with a comparable construction that only uses the shear movement without the effect of shoring.
    [091] [091] The forces that can be transmitted directly through the applied magnetic field represent only a small part of the forces that can be transmitted through the device. It is possible, through the magnetic field, to control the formation of the shim and, consequently, the reinforcement of the mechanical force. The mechanical reinforcement of the magneto-rheological effect can go so far that a transmission of force is also possible after the disconnection of an applied magnetic field, if the particles have been shored.
    [092] [092] It has been proved that a considerably greater effect of a magnetic field 8 of specific intensity is achieved through the shoring effect of regions at an acute angle 10. In this case, it is possible to intensify the effect many times. In a specific case, an approximately ten times stronger influence of the relative speed of two brake components 2 and 3 relative to each other than in the case of the prior art is observed in the case of MRF couplings according to the shear principle in the in which a magneto-rheological fluid is disposed between two surface areas that move in relation to each other and said magneto-rheological fluid is exposed to the shear forces of the surface areas that move in relation to each other. The possible reinforcement in this case through the shoring effect depends on different factors. Where applicable, said reinforcement can be further intensified by means of a greater roughness of the surface of the bearing bodies 11. It is also possible that projecting external projections on the external surface of the bearing bodies 11 and the said projections can lead to an even stronger wedge formation.
    [093] [093] The shoring effect is distributed evenly on the bearing body 11 and on components 2 or 3.
    [094] [094] Figure 3 illustrates a vertical section through a magneto-rheological braking device 1 comprising two brake components 2 and 3. The first brake component 2 is arranged in this case inside the second brake component. brake 3 and is maintained in a positive locking and / or non-positive locking manner by means of a bracket 4. The bracket 4 can be attached as an example to an external console. The support 4 is fixed regularly in a swiveling manner. The second brake component 3 is received in the first brake component 2 and can rotate with respect to said first brake component.
    [095] [095] The second brake component 3 is in the form of a star and comprises the glove part 13 and a cover that closes the top of the glove part 13. The second brake component 3 is therefore accessible in this case only from this lower end, through which the first brake component 2 is guided using the support 4. A cylindrical bearing surface 37 is realized in the support 4 in the region of the lower end of the first brake component 2. A hardened surface or a surface with corresponding qualities is provided in that region. A bearing arrangement 30 for the rotating bearing arrangement of the second brake component 3 is attached to this cylindrical bearing surface 37. A seal 38 is provided in the axial direction 20 further inward adjacent to the bearing arrangement 30. A seal 38 reliably seals the interior. Due to the fact that only one seal 38 is provided outside, a low basic torque is required to rotate the second brake component 3 in the event of a disconnected magnetic field.
    [096] [096] The first brake component 2 comprises a cylindrical base body 33 comprising axial grooves 31 and transverse grooves 32 (cf. figure 7 and figure 4) the windings of the electrical coil 26 are wound in the axial grooves 31 and grooves transverse 32 with the result that the individual windings of the electric coil 26 do not protrude out of the cylindrical base body 33. In this case, in the exemplary embodiment, the axial grooves 31 and the transverse grooves 32 are subsequently filled by of a casting compound with the result that, in general, a cylindrical body of the first brake component 2 is provided.
    [097] [097] A ball 22 (or hemisphere) is arranged or partially molded centrally at the top end of the first brake component 2, in order to provide a second bearing arrangement between
    [098] [098] A space 5 is realized radially between the outer wall of the first brake component 2 and the inner wall of the sleeve part 13, said clearance being realized in this case essentially as a hollow cylindrical clearance. Multiple transmission components 11 are arranged in the clearance, said transmission components in this case being realized as rolling elements. The bearing bodies 11 are embodied in this case as cylindrical bearing bodies and comprise an outside diameter that is slightly less than the clearance width of the space 5. In addition, the space 5 is filled with a magneto-rheological medium. It is possible, for example, to have an O-ring or similar that is filled with air or another gas in the lower region of the gap, said O-ring provides volume compensation in the event of temperature fluctuations. In addition, as a consequence, a reservoir is formed in the lower region of the range for use in the event that during operation, the magneto-rheological fluid or the medium escapes from the inside to the outside.
    [099] [099] The length of the (usable) clearance 5b of the space 5 is greater here than the length 11b of the roller bodies 11. The electric coil, in this case, is also realized as longer in the axial direction 20 than the length 11b of the roller bodies 11.
    [0100] [0100] The core 21 is visible inside the electric coil 26. The support 4 comprises a radially enlarged receiving arrangement 36 to receive the first brake component 2 in a rotatingly fixed manner. Through the support 4, a cable passage extends downwards through the support 4. The cables 45 are guided in this place in order to connect to the electric coil 26 and, where applicable, to the sensor lines. A control device 27 can be provided on the base of the support 4 or in other suitable positions, in order to provide control as needed.
    [0101] [0101] Figure 4 shows a section displaced by 90 ° through the magneto-rheological braking device 1, according to figure 3, in which in this case the transverse grooves 32 are apparent in which the electric coil 26 is wound. The casting compound 28 is supplied in the axial direction at both ends, respectively. A separate seal is provided in the region of the cable passage 35 as an example, the marked O-ring or similar.
    [0102] [0102] It is also possible that individual rolling elements of the rolling elements arranged on the periphery can be realized as magnetically non-conductive transmission components 11c. However, it is also possible that all rolling elements are made from magnetically conductive material. If individual rolling elements are made from a magnetically non-conductive material, this leads to a concentration of the magnetic field in the magnetically conductive rolling elements, as a result, it is possible to generate a stronger braking torque.
    [0103] [0103] A length or height 13c of the sleeve part 13 or the second brake component 3 in the axial direction 20 is preferably between 10 mm and 60 mm. A cover 49 can be attached on the outside to the second brake component 3, with the result that the external appearance of the rotary knob 23 is essentially determined by means of the surface of the cover 49.
    [0104] [0104] The material of part 13 of the glove is magnetically conductive and is used to close the magnetic circuit. A wall thickness 13d of the sleeve part 13 is preferably at least half the size of a diameter 11a of the bearing bodies 11.
    [0105] [0105] The diameter 36a of the receiving arrangement 36 is preferably considerably larger than the diameter 37a of the cylindrical rolling surface 37. As a consequence, the friction in the seal 38 is reduced. In addition, it is possible to use standardized bearings.
    [0106] [0106] It is also possible to incorporate core 21 as two parts. The division extends preferentially along the central line which is marked in figure 4, as a result of which a half on the left side and a half on the right side (nucleus) are provided. The two halves of the core can be spaced from each other by means of a magnetically non-conductive element (eg, seal). It is preferred that the volume of the casting compound 28 is then a part of the core half (halves), as a result of which a semicircular element with a circumferential groove is provided on the dividing surface for the electrical coil. In addition, preferably, the receiving arrangement 36 is also divided into two halves. A receiving half can also form a part with a half of the core (can be realized as a single piece) or a half of the core can be realized with a complete receiving unit 36 as a single part.
    [0107] [0107] Figure 5 illustrates a plan view of the magneto-rheological braking device 1, in which the rolling elements 3 are apparent. The cylindrical base body that has the electric coil 26 is apparent in the central region.
    [0108] [0108] Figure 6 illustrates section B - B according to figure 5. The bearing bodies 11 are arranged in space 5, in this case the said bearing bodies comprise a (relatively short) length 11b which is considerably shorter than the length of space 5b. As shown in the lower part of figure 6, several bearing bodies can be provided axially behind each other and some of said bearing bodies are also magnetically non-conductive, as the bearing body illustrates.
    [0109] [0109] Figure 7 illustrates a horizontal section at an average height of the magneto-rheological braking device 1, in which the axial grooves 31 are apparent in which the windings of the electrical coil 26 are wound. The groove is filled with the casting compound 28, in order to seal and close said groove, with the result that, in general, a cylindrical modality of the first brake component 2 is provided.
    [0110] [0110] Figure 8 elucidates, in principle, the same illustration as Figure 7, except that the hatch has been removed for clarity and for that purpose the magnetic field lines of the magnetic field 8 are marked. The magnetic field extends transversely in relation to the longitudinal direction through the core 21 and in this case enters approximately horizontally at both ends outside the core 21 through the bearing bodies 11 and then enters the sleeve part 13. The lines of the magnetic fields close as shown in figure 8. In this case, several bearing bodies are exposed to a magnetic field, with the result that the shoring effect occurs, respectively, in multiple, but not all, bearing bodies. The roller bodies in the region of the casting compound are essentially free of the magnetic field.
    [0111] [0111] Figure 9 illustrates the cross section A - A in figure 5, in which the core 21 with the coil 26 is evident in the central region. Figure 9 illustrates with the dotted line a variant in which the first brake component 2 is surrounded by a glove body 34. The glove body 34 comprises a radial thickness 34a that is considerably less than the width of the space 5a or than a diameter 11a of the roller bodies 11. The sleeve body 34 is made from a magnetically conductive material. As a consequence, after the application
    [0112] [0112] Finally, figure 10 illustrates an additional exemplary embodiment of a magneto-rheological braking device 1 which is also realized in this case as a haptic operation button 100. The magneto-rheological braking device 1 according to figure 10 works in essentially the same way as in the exemplary embodiments described above. A difference from the exemplary embodiments described above is that a central passageway 39 is provided, through which a support element 47 is fed through including (at least) a supply line. At least one seal ring 46 can be provided for sealing purposes. The support element 47 can be anchored as an example in the console or similar and supports a user interface 43 in which, for example, a monitor (touch sensitive) or an input element is provided.
    [0113] [0113] Another difference is that a 40 axis is supplied, which in this case is rendered hollow. The 40 axis is connected in a
    [0114] [0114] If only an angle sensor 41, 42 is provided, it is not necessary for the axis 40 to be made hollow and used to feed a support element 47 to a display / input element. The axis 40 can also be realized as a solid. A monitor must then be attached and provided in another way or the monitor must be omitted.
    [0115] [0115] User interface 43 can also be used as a pressure element or tension element, which transmits the movement through the support element 47 to an encoder / switch below (possibly under the console 50).
    [0116] [0116] It is also possible to move (push / pull) the entire braking unit in relation to the console 50 in the axial direction and also in the radial direction, as well as move the entire unit with or without a console in the radial or axial direction.
    [0117] [0117] On the other hand, it is also possible to provide a passage without the hollow shaft. As an example, if the accessory protected from an angle sensor is omitted or an angle position is detected in another way.
    [0118] [0118] Possible embodiments to control a dynamically generated magnetic field or a dynamically generated braking torque depending on the angle of rotation are illustrated in figures 11a, 11b and 11c.
    [0119] [0119] Figure 11a illustrates, in this case, a variant in which a rotary knob is used as an aid to haptic operation. The rotational resistance is shown on the rotation angle. A final stop on the left side 228 and a final stop on the right side 229 can be generated using controller 27. A high magnetic field or stop torque 238 is generated on the knob when the knob 23 is turned further, as a result of which rotary knob 23 places a high resistance to a rotational movement. The user obtains tactile feedback from a final stop.
    [0120] [0120] In this case, a magnetic selection of the rotational movement can be provided or generated. For example, this can be used to navigate through a graphic menu and select menu points. In this case, a first magnetic selection point 226 is provided directly adjacent to the final stop on the left side 228, said magnetic selection point corresponds to, for example, a first menu point during operation. If the next menu item is selected, the knob 100 is turned clockwise. For this purpose, the highest dynamically generated magnetic field or the selection torque 239 or the friction torque of the same must be overcome before reaching the next magnetic selection point 226. In figure 11a, a respective constant magnetic field is generated for a specific angular range respectively at the magnetic selection points 226 and in the regions located between the said magnetic selection points, the said magnetic field being considerably smaller at the magnetic selection points than in the regions between the said ones. magnetic selection points and again clearly less than at stops 228, 229.
    [0121] [0121] An angular distance 237 between individual magnetic selection points can be changed dynamically and is adapted to the number of magnetic selection points or menu points available.
    [0122] [0122] Figure 11b illustrates a variant in which, at the final stops 228, 229, the magnetic field does not increase abruptly, but rather assumes a sharp curve. In addition, the respective ramp increases in the magnetic field are provided at magnetic selection points 226 on both sides of rotation, as a result of which the rotational resistance increases in the corresponding rotational directions. In this case, using the same operating device 100, only three magnetic selection points 226 are provided and the angular distance 237 is greater than in the example, according to figure 11a.
    [0123] [0123] Figure 11c illustrates a variant in which a lower rotational resistance is provided between the individual magnetic selection points 226 and an increased magnetic field 239 is generated only directly adjacent to the magnetic selection points 226, respectively, in order to make it possible to fit the individual magnetic selection points 226 and simultaneously to provide only little rotational resistance between the individual magnetic selection points.
    [0124] [0124] Fundamentally, it is also possible to mix the operating modes and the magnetic field curves of the figures
    [0125] [0125] It is also possible in all cases that, in the case of, for example, a ripple (selection), a switch is executed, unlike the previous one, between less and more current force with the same polarity (in other words , for example, +0.2 to + 0.8A = ripple), but preferably alternately with an altered polarity, that is, from +0.2 to + 0.8A, and then the next ripple from -0.2A to -0.8A and then the next peak torque from +0.2 to +0.8 etc.
    [0126] [0126] It is also possible in all cases that the operating mode of figures 11a, 11b and 11c or a mixture of the operating modes is selected using voice commands. The user selects a function (volume, transmitter selection ...) by voice input (using local or remote voice recognition, for example, through Alexa, Amazon Echo, Siri, Google voice input ... ). The magneto-rheological braking device then provides a corresponding operating mode (volume = selection with increasing braking torque to increase the volume; selection of the radio transmitter = selection with several increments and among them with low braking torque up to find a transmitter).
    [0127] [0127] Low alloy steel may preferably contain a residual magnetic field. The steel is preferably demagnetized regularly or as needed (among others, by means of a specific alternative field).
    [0128] [0128] It is preferable that FeSi3P material (silicon steel) or a related material is used for the components through which the magnetic field flows.
    [0129] [0129] In all cases, a voice or audible control procedure can be performed. The braking device can be adaptively controlled using voice control.
    [0130] [0130] If the rotating unit is not rotated, in other words, the angle is constant, the current is preferably reduced continuously over time. The current can also vary depending on the speed (speed of the rotation angle of the rotating unit).
