Rotor, in particular for a camshaft adjuster, method for producing a rotor and device for adjusting the angle of rotation of a camshaft relative to a crankshaft of an engine
A rotor ( 10 ), in particular for a camshaft adjuster, comprises a rotor base body ( 8 ) that comprises a hub part having a central oil inlet ( 14 ). In addition, at least one vane ( 18 ) arranged in a radial manner on the hub part ( 12 ) and also oil channels ( 16 ) that extend through the hub part ( 12 ) on both sides of each vane ( 18 ) and are connected to the central oil inlet ( 14 ) in such a manner as to allow the flow of oil are provided in the hub part ( 12 ). The process of manufacturing the rotor base body ( 8 ) is considerably simplified as the rotor base body ( 8 ) is divided along a dividing plane (T), so that it comprises two base body parts ( 6 ).
1. A rotor for a camshaft adjuster, comprising a rotor base body that comprises a hub part having a central oil inlet, at least one vane arranged in a radial manner on the hub part and oil channels that extend through the hub part on both sides of each of the at least one vane and are connected to a central oil inlet to allow the flow of oil, the rotor base body is divided along a dividing plane (T) and comprises two base body parts.
2. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein hollow chambers are provided in the rotor base body.
3. The rotor as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the hollow chambers are embodied in the hub part.
4. The rotor as claimed in claim 3 , wherein a surface area of the hollow chambers amounts to approx. ⅓ to ⅔ of a surface area of the hub part between two of the vanes.
5. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the oil channels are arranged in the dividing plane (T).
6. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotor base body comprises an axis of rotation (D) and the dividing plane (T) lies perpendicular to the axis of rotation (D).
7. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the dividing plane (T) divides the rotor base body centrally and the base body parts form two halves of the rotor base body.
8. The rotor as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the two halves are identical to each other.
9. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the oil channels respectively is allocated in each of the base body parts to each of the vanes.
10. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the base body parts are mutually connected by spigots.
11. The rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the rotor base body is a sintered body.
12. A method for manufacturing a rotor as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least two of the base body parts are manufactured for the rotor base body and mutually fixedly connected.
13. The method as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the base body parts are manufactured as two identical halves and are subsequently joined together.
14. The method as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the base body parts are first embodied as sintered bodies, subsequently joined together and finally sintered.
15. A device for adjusting the angle of rotation of a camshaft with respect to a crankshaft of an engine, having a rotor as claimed in claim 1 .
