Abstract

Claims (35)

1 . A rotor for an electric machine of an electrically drivable motor vehicle, the rotor comprising:

a magnetic field-generating component for configuring a rotor magnetic field; and

a rotor core for holding the magnetic field-generating component, wherein:

the rotor core has an annular rotor yoke and at least two rotor poles which are disposed on the rotor yoke, are configured in multiple parts and have in each case one rotor tooth which is configured integrally with the rotor yoke, and a pole shoe which is separate from the rotor tooth for disposing the magnetic field-generating component on the rotor tooth,

each pole shoe is pressed radially against a respective rotor tooth,

in order to press each pole shoe radially against the respective rotor tooth, the rotor has auxiliary joining parts which are configured to fix each pole shoe to the respective rotor tooth by way of a force fit,

the auxiliary joining parts are at least partially disposed in respective pole gaps between two rotor poles,

the auxiliary joining parts are fastened to the rotor yoke by at least one connecting element,

each pole shoe has a circular-segmented cross section which is delimited by a chord and an arc, and sides of the pole shoes that are assigned to the chords are disposed on sides of the rotor teeth that lie radially opposite the rotor yoke, and

the magnetic field-generating component has rotor windings with pre-wound winding conductors which are configured to be pushed onto the rotor teeth.

2 . The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein:

the at least one connecting element is configured as at least one of a screw, a rivet or a bolt.

3 . The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein:

each pole shoe is connected in a form-fitting manner to at least one of the auxiliary joining parts.

4 . The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein:

each pole shoe is connected in a force-fitting manner to the respective rotor tooth by way of at least two of the auxiliary joining parts which are disposed in the two adjacent pole gaps, and

each auxiliary joining part connects pole shoes of two neighboring rotor poles in a force-fitting manner to the respective rotor tooth.

5 . The rotor according to claim 4 , wherein:

the auxiliary joining parts are configured in a manner of V-clamps;

each of the auxiliary joining parts has two legs which are connected by an apex region,

leg ends of the legs are disposed on two neighboring pole shoes, and

the apex region is disposed on the rotor yoke and has at least one through-opening for the at least one connecting element.

6 . The rotor according to claim 5 , wherein:

each pole shoe on two laterally opposite sides has one rebate, and

the leg ends are configured as laterally angled leg portions which engage in a respective rebate.

7 . The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein: the winding conductors of the rotor windings are configured to be tape-shaped.

8 . The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein:

the magnetic field-generating component has permanent magnets which are disposed on the rotor teeth.

9 . The rotor according to claim 8 , wherein:

each of the rotor teeth on a side that faces the pole shoes has at least one depression in which is disposed at least one permanent magnet, and which, while configuring a respective receptacle space for the at least one permanent magnet, is closed by a respective pole shoe.

10 . An electric machine for a motor vehicle, the electric machine comprising:

a stator; and

the rotor according to claim 1 ,

wherein the rotor is mounted to be rotatable relative to the stator.

11 . A motor vehicle comprising the electric machine according to claim 10 .
