Abstract

A gerotor is used in power-steering units (PSUs) as well as in hydraulic motors or pumps. The inner rotor is developed on the basis of the shape of the outer rotor tooth, which normally has one arc. The method of generating inner rotor on the basis of a generalized shape of outer rotor is analyzed with a view to improve PSU characteristics. An arc-shaped outer rotor with two curvatures was used in the analysis; design parameters such as the shape and curvature of the inner rotor, the flow rate of the gerotor, the position of contact point, and slip velocity are calculated, and these results are shown. This analysis enables us to develop a new design of compact PSUs.

제로터는 유압모터나 펌프뿐만 아니라 조향장치인 파워 스티어링 유닛(PSU)에도 사용된다. 제로터의 내치차는 일상적인 경우 단일 원호형상의 외치차에 의하여 생성된다. 본 논문에서 PSU의 특성 개선을 위하여 보다 일반화 된 외치차의 형상으로부터 내치차를 생성하는 방법을 해석하였다. 해석의 결과로서, 외치차의 형상곡선이 특별한 2중곡률을 갖는 원호인 경우에 대하여, 내치차의 형상과 곡률, 제로터의 유량 및 접촉점의 위치와 슬립속도 등의 설계자료를 구하여 제시하였다. 이러한 해석은 새로운 PSU의 개발과 소형화를 가능케 한다.
