Abstract

An electromagnetic induction device comprises a closed magnetic circuit, without air gap, of which at least one first part is substantially rectilinear and surrounded by a sleeve, the sleeve being surrounded by an electrical conductor which comprises at least one metal sheet electrically insulated on at least one of its faces, wherein at least the first part of the magnetic circuit has a section of circular form.

Claims (14)

1. An electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) comprising a closed magnetic circuit ( 2 ), without air gap, of which at least one first part ( 11 ) extends longitudinally along a longitudinal axis, the longitudinal axis being substantially rectilinear, said first part being surrounded by a sleeve ( 3 ), said sleeve ( 3 ) being surrounded by an electrical conductor ( 4 ) which comprises at least one metal sheet electrically insulated on at least one of its faces, wherein

said first part ( 11 ) of said closed magnetic circuit ( 2 ) has a section of circular form;

said closed magnetic circuit ( 2 ) is layered by several layers of magnetic material separated by an electrical insulation, and

said sleeve ( 3 ) comprises an inner face ( 7 ) having a circular section closely fitting the form of said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) to allow a rotation of the sleeve around the closed magnetic circuit about the longitudinal axis of the first part, and an outer face ( 8 ) comprising curved parts ( 19 ) and planar parts ( 20 ).

2. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in the preceding claim, wherein at least one said sleeve ( 3 ) comprises a main axis, an inner face ( 7 ) of which the form of a section is circular and closely fits the form of said magnetic circuit ( 2 ), and an outer face ( 8 ) defined by a set of straight lines parallel to said main axis, comprising said curved parts ( 19 ) and said planar parts ( 20 ).

3. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) comprises at least one second part ( 12 ) which has at least one planar surface ( 13 ).

4. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) comprises at least one sheet of magnetic material ( 18 ) electrically insulated on at least one of its faces and wound over at least one element chosen from at least one other said sheet of magnetic material ( 18 ) and itself.

5. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each said sleeve ( 3 ) comprises several parts ( 6 ) adapted to cooperate to surround said magnetic circuit ( 2 ).

6. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , wherein said sleeve ( 3 ) comprises at least one engaging means ( 17 ) adapted to transmit a drive to allow the rotation of said sleeve ( 3 ) about said longitudinal axis of said first part ( 11 ), in order to wind and order at least one said electrical conductor ( 4 ) in sheet form around said sleeve ( 3 ).

7. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 comprising two planar electrical conductors ( 16 ) in electrical contact with one said electrical conductor ( 4 ) and arranged so as to form the terminals of said electrical conductor ( 4 ).

8. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 1 , comprising a local heat exchanger ( 15 ) in contact with said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) outside of said at least one first part.

9. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 8 , wherein said local heat exchanger ( 15 ) comprises at least one surface closely fitting the form of said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) and at least one planar surface ( 22 ).

10. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 9 , wherein a section of said magnetic circuit ( 2 ) is of circular form along the contact with said local heat exchanger ( 15 ).

11. The electromagnetic induction device ( 1 ) as claimed in claim 9 , wherein several surfaces chosen from at least one said planar surface of said magnetic circuit ( 13 ) and at least one said planar surface of said local heat exchanger ( 22 ) is coplanar and adapted to be placed in contact with at least one planar heat exchanger ( 14 ).
