    [0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a rotary electric machine having a receiving pulley. a belt and a device for adjusting the tension of the belt. The rotating electrical machine may be an electric motor, a belt starter, an alternator or a reversible alternator alterno-starter alternately operating in electric motor mode to start the engine of a motor vehicle. STATE OF THE ART Such a machine with a device for adjusting the tension of the belt is described, for example, in patents AT 130902 and EP 0 459 894 to which reference will be made for more details. The rotating electrical machine may be an electric motor as in patent AT 13 902. As can be seen in FIG. 1 similar to that of patent AT 130902, this machine 1 comprises a device for adjusting the tension of the belt comprising an arm of adjustment 10 'pivoting around a nose with a pivot integral with a front flange 2' belonging to a housing of the machine and carrying a roller 9 'of tension of the belt penetrating a pulley (not referenced) integral with the end (not visible) of a rotor shaft of the machine, which as we know is secured to a rotor. The casing and therefore the front flange 2 'is, in known manner, shaped to be fixed on a fixed part. This flange 2 'constitutes a support flange for the belt tension adjusting device. Specifically the flange 2 'carries a support arm 7' for a tension spring 8 'connected to the arm 10' with the presence of an adjusting nut 12 'of the spring tension 8'. In this embodiment the flange 2 'has a stop 3' for receiving a nose 5 'of an arm 6' whose upper end 7 'serves as a support for the spring 8' exerting a force on the end 7 . The rotating electrical machine may be an alternator as described in patent EP 0 459 894, which also discloses a rotating electrical machine with a pulley (not visible) for receiving a belt and a device for adjusting the tension of the belt 3032746 2 comprising a tensioner roller, an adjusting arm movable in rotation with respect to a front end flange of the alternator intended to be fixed on the engine block of a motor vehicle and holding means and / or adjusting the belt tension. The tensioning means of the belt consists of an embodiment of a spiral spring integrated with the front flange and the adjusting arm, said spring exerting a displacement force on the tensioning roller for an optimum tension of the belt. In a variant, the adjustment means comprise a toothed sector formed on the adjustment arm and designed to cooperate with a toothed sector of complementary shape integral with the front flange of the electric machine. The toothed sectors consist of another embodiment in racks. The front flange comprises a bracket provided with holes for fixing it with fastening means, such as screws, on the engine block of the motor vehicle. This flange also constitutes a support flange of the tensioning device of the belt. The tensioner roller is rotatably mounted on the arm advantageously with the aid of a ball bearing interposed radially between the inner periphery of the roller and a pivot, a bolt in this embodiment, secured to the front flange as described and visible for example in the figure 2 of this patent EP 0 459 894. In all cases, thanks to the device for adjusting the tension of the belt, an optimum tension of the belt is obtained, the belt is prevented from slipping and the vibrations which can operation of the rotating electrical machine, knowing that these vibrations may break the fixing projections, such as ears or lugs or plates, that the front flange housing of an electric machine has for fixing it to a fixed part, such as the engine block of a motor vehicle.
    [0002] The belt may be flat, of trapezoidal section or consist of a poly-V (registered trademark) belt, the transmission of motion between the flexible belt and the pulley being in one embodiment by adhesion. The pulley may be metallic by being for example steel or aluminum for example anodized. In a variant, the pulley is made of plastic material reinforced with fibers and / or fillers for reducing noise. This pulley has a groove complementary to the shape of the belt for receiving it. The pulley, when it is metallic, may be coated locally with plastic material in particular at its throat. The groove of the belt may have a parallel flank groove and smooth bottom for receiving a flat belt. Alternatively the groove of the pulley may be trapezoidal for receiving a trapezoidal belt belt transmitting more torque than a flat belt. In a variant, the pulley may comprise a bottom provided with grooves for receiving teeth of a poly-V (registered trademark) striated belt in the lengthwise direction. The lower part of the belt is in all cases intended to cooperate with the bottom of the groove of the pulley while the upper part of the belt is intended to cooperate with the tensioner roller (see Figure 1). In known manner, the belt is flexible and comprises a base body made of elastomer 10 reinforced with fibers and a force reinforcement composed of cables such as polyester cables. This belt is called a rubber belt. The composition of the elastomer base body, called base rubber, depends on the different belt producers. Thus, for example, a trapezoidal section belt comprises an upper part comprising a crossed fabric, a textile reinforcing armor composed for example of polyester cables, an elastomer base body belonging to the lower part of the belt reinforced with resistant transverse fibers. abrasion-resistant rubber for example polychloroprene resistant to oils and ensuring static and dynamic adhesion with the textile reinforcement. Advantageously, the inner portion of the belt is provided with notches to increase the flexibility of the belt and to limit heating.
    [0003] A poly-V belt differs from a V-belt in that its base body is provided with lengthwise serrations with triangular section teeth belonging to the lower portion of the belt. The grooves in the bottom of the groove of the pulley are designed to receive the teeth of the belt in a complementary manner. In a known manner poly-V belts are more advantageous than belts of trapezoidal section because: they are more flexible which allows use on pulleys of smaller diameter; they allow optimum adhesion over the entire surface of the pulley and a homogeneous distribution of the contact pressure between the belt and the pulley; 30 - they allow higher motion transmission ratios; - A single belt is sufficient for, for example, from the crankshaft pulley of a combustion engine of a motor vehicle, drive the alternator of the motor vehicle and another accessory of the motor vehicle, such as the 3032746 4 fan or the air conditioning compressor of it. In a variant, the pulley comprises a groove with a bottom forming a gear for receiving complementary notches which comprises the elastomer base body of the textile belt and the cable strength textile reinforcement. The transmission of force is then carried out in this embodiment by adhesion and meshing. A conventional rotating electrical machine comprises a casing on which is mounted on the one hand, a stator and on the other hand, centrally with the aid of bearing means, such as ball bearings with one or two rows of balls, a rotary rotor shaft. The shaft is secured to a rotor rotating inside the stator. The pulley is mounted outside the housing and at one end, said front end, of the shaft for example by screwing. The housing is shaped to be fixed on a fixed part and comprises at least one front flange adjacent to the pulley and a rear flange farthest from the pulley. These flanges are referred to as front and rear bearings, respectively. The tree goes through the landings. In the case of an electric motor the stator is an inductor stator and the rotor an induced rotor. In the case of an alternator, in particular for a vehicle with a combustion engine, the stator is an induced stator and the rotor is an inductor rotor. As is known, the rotor may be a claw rotor, a coiled protruding pole rotor, or a permanent magnet rotor implanted radially and / or axially in the rotor body comprising a bundle of sheets. The claw rotor or the protruding pole rotor may be provided with permanent magnets, in particular to increase the power of the rotating electrical machine. The stator may comprise, to reduce the effects of eddy currents, a body in the form of a bundle of plates carrying a stator winding extending on either side of the stator body comprising continuous wire windings. or in the form of bars. The stator body is of axial length less than or equal to that of the rotor. The axis of the rotor shaft constitutes the axis of rotation of the electric machine and the axis of axial symmetry of the rotor and the stator body constituting two coaxial parts. An air gap exists between the inner periphery of the stator body and the outer periphery of the rotor body. The electrical machine may be of the polyphase type comprising at least three phases. A rectifier bridge or an inverter may be associated with the stator winding in particular to transform the AC induced current produced by the DC stator 3032746 5 in order to supply consumers of the motor vehicle and / or to recharge the vehicle battery. The front bearing is advantageously perforated for air circulation and cooling of the electric machine. For reference, reference will be made, for example, to document FR 2 739 734 describing a rotating electrical machine in the form of an alternator visible in FIG. 2, which is a sectional view of a conventional alternator identical to FIG. 1 of document FR. 2 739 734. Such a machine may comprise a casing la, lb shaped to be fixed on a fixed part and comprising at least two flanges respectively called front bearing and the rear bearing lb advantageously aluminum, knowing that the front and the back correspond to a left-to-right orientation in this figure 2.
    [0004] These bearings 1a, 1b are assembled, for example by means of tie-rods, in such a way as to retain a stator 6 between their outer periphery, comprising a stator body in the form of a bundle of sheets carrying a stator winding. extending to and from the body of the stator and passing therethrough .To this body has in this embodiment notches for the passage of the son of a polyphase stator winding in the form of windings son 20 continuous conductors with an electrical insulation layer such as enamel. The casing la, lb is shaped to be fixed on a fixed part. Bearings 1a, 1b in this embodiment are hollow in shape and each have at their outer periphery a generally annular peripheral generally shaped rim for retaining the body of the stator 6 here in favor of a shoulder formed at their free end. These bearings 1a, 1b each centrally have a cylindrical housing for mounting bearing means here respectively of a front ball bearing 7 and a rear ball bearing 8 rotatably receiving a metal rotor shaft 9 secured to a rotor 20. The shaft 9 passes through the bearings la, lb, which each have a sleeve for forming the housing respectively of the bearing 7 and the bearing 8.
    [0005] The outer ring of the ball bearing 7 is in intimate contact with the outer edge of the housing of the front bearing 1a, while an expansion ring is inserted radially between the outer edge of the housing of the rear flange 1b and the outer periphery of the outer ring of the ball bearing 8. The outer edge of the housing is constituted by the inner periphery 3032746 6 sleeves. The bearing housings 1a, 1b are perforated centrally for passage of a shaft 9 whose outer periphery is in intimate contact with the inner periphery of the inner rings of the bearings 7, 8. The front ball bearing 7 is of larger diameter than In this FIG. 2 the shaft 9 has an axis of axial symmetry shown in FIG. 2 and the axial, radial and transverse terms will be made with reference to this axis constituting the axis of rotation of the axle. the alternator. It will be the same in the other figures. The rotor 20 is a claw rotor which comprises in this embodiment two pole wheels 4, 5 10 and a central core implanted between the pole wheels and carrying an excitation coil 21. The central core may be distinct from the pole wheels or be two integral parts each of one of the pole wheels 4, 5. The pole wheels 4, 5 and the central core are preferably ferromagnetic material and it is the same for the shaft 9 on which are fixed the wheels 4, 5 and the hub for example by means of knurled portions of the central shaft 9 passing through the wheels 4, 5 and the hub. These wheels 4, 5 each have a flange carrying at its outer periphery generally axially oriented teeth, respectively 41, 51, nested within each other leaving interstices between them so that the teeth of one of the polar wheels are directed axially towards the flange of the other polar wheel. An air gap exists between the outer periphery of the claw rotor 20, constituted by the outer periphery of the teeth 41, 51, and the inner periphery of the stator body 6 of axial length less than or equal to the axial length of the rotor 20. In this embodiment embodiment, the teeth 41, 51 have leading edges 43, 53 and trailing edges 42, 52, which are curved with respect to the direction of rotation indicated by the arrow F1, so as to cause an air flow according to the arrow F2 in all the interstices between the teeth 41, 51. Alternatively the teeth 41, 51, conventionally, are not curved and have a generally trapezoidal shape. The front face of the wheel 4 carries a front fan 10, while the rear face of the wheel 5 carries a rear fan 12 so that the rotor 20 is flanked by two internal fans 10, 12 implanted in the casing 1. The fans 10, 12 have blades respectively 11, 13 and are centrally perforated for the passage of the shaft 9 of the rotor 20. The blades 11, 13 may be shaped to form centrifugal fans. In a variant, the blades 11 of the front fan 10 may be designed to form a mixed fan with radial and axial action. Alternatively one can remove the front fan 10, the flange and the peripheral teeth 41 of the wheel 4 constituting a fan. The bearings 1a, 1b are perforated and each have, in this embodiment, axial air inlets 15, 17 respectively, and radial air outlets 14 and 16 respectively, so that the internal fans 10 and 12 respectively a circulation of the internal air in cooperation with the inputs 15, 17 and the outputs 14, 16 to ensure cooling of the components of the alternator, in particular the winding 21, the stator 6 and the bearings 7, 8. The outputs of 14, 16 are arranged in major parts respectively in the annular peripheral rims generally axially oriented bearings 1a, 1b. The air inlets 15, 17 are formed respectively in a nose before 18 that has the bearing before the and in a bottom of transverse orientation of the rear bearing 1b. The housings, of cylindrical shape, bearings 7, 8 are formed centrally in the nose 18 of the bearing 1 and in the bottom of the bearing lb each having a sleeve mentioned above for the housing 15 of the bearings 7, 8. The nose of the bearing the connected to the peripheral rim of the bearing 1a by a frustoconical wall of slight inclination constituting the bottom of the bearing 1a. The inlets 15 are formed in the nose 18, while the oblong outlets 14 are, for reasons of demolding, formed partly in the frustoconical wall and partly in the peripheral rim of the bearing 1a as shown in this FIG.
    [0006] The alternator comprises, on the front side, outside the casing 1a, 1b, a pulley 3, made of metal or of reinforced plastic, adjacent to the front end of the front bearing 1b. The pulley 3, for example made of steel or aluminum or alternatively of fiber-reinforced plastics material and / or fillers, has a groove 31 whose bottom is provided with grooves for the complementary reception of the teeth of a belt. poly-V not shown for clarity. The teeth and furrows are six in this embodiment. The pulley 3 is provided with a cavity (not referenced) with a transverse bottom for receiving a nut (not referenced) which is screwed onto the threaded front end of the rotor shaft 9 passing through to thereby make a central opening which has the bottom of the cavity of the pulley. This pulley 3 comprises at the rear a sleeve (not referenced) traversed by the shaft 9 and in contact with the rear end of the inner ring of the ball bearing 7. As a variant the sleeve of the pulley is replaced by a ring. For more details on the assembly of the pulley 3 at the nose before 18, reference is made to FIG. 3, which is a front view 3032746 of the alternator of FIG. 33, in the form of a ring traversed by the shaft 9, is interposed axially between the rear end of the inner ring of the bearing 7 and the front end of the front pole wheel 4 fixed on the shaft 9, as well as the hub for example, conventionally, with the aid of a knurled portion 30 thereof. Thus the pulley 3 is integral in rotation and in translation of the shaft 9. It will be noted that the spacer 33 is shorter axially than the inner ring of the bearing 7. In this FIG. 3, the reference 31 designates the throat of the pulley. while reference numeral 36 designates the threaded part of the rotor shaft 9 passing through the nose 18 of the front bearing provided with a sleeve 22 in which is fitted the outer ring of the bearing 7. The outer ring 10 of the bearing 7 is wedged axially between a holding part (not referenced) and a shoulder formed at the front of the sleeve 22 closed by a web 32 interposed between the pulley 3 and the balls of the bearing 7 advantageously sealed The sail 32, of annular shape, is traversed by the front end of the shaft and constitutes a protective veil preventing the introduction of water or dirt at the level of the bearing 7. The retaining piece, of annular shape, is perforated centrally for passage of the spacer e t has at its outer periphery holes, for example four in number, for the passage of fasteners, here screws (not referenced) to the sleeve 22 threaded for this purpose. The front bearing therefore has a nose 18 provided with a mounting housing for a ball bearing 7 whose inner ring is integral in rotation with a rotor shaft 9 passing through the nose 18 of the bearing 20 before the to bring to fixing a pulley for receiving a flexible motion transmission belt 3. The rear polar wheel 5 is secured to the shaft 9 also with the aid of a knurled portion thereof. The rear end of the shaft 9 passes through the bottom of the rear bearing 1b and is of smaller diameter than the front end of the shaft 9 which is mechanically more stressed due to the presence of the pulley 3 for receiving the belt. of motion transmission. For this reason, the bearing 7 is of larger diameter than the bearing 8. This shaft 9 has at its rear end two slip rings not referenced. These slip rings belong to a connector attached to the rear end of the shaft 9 as described, for example, in document FR 2 710 199. This connector thus has a body of electrically insulating material, such as plastic, fitted on the rear end of the shaft 9 and carrying the slip rings. This connector body has at the front two arms in each of which is embedded an electrically conductive tongue for electrical connection of one end of the excitation winding 21 of the rotor 20 with the collector ring concerned as best seen in the FIGS. 10 and 11 of this document FR 2 710 199 also showing, on the one hand, the expansion collar interposed radially between the outer edge of the sleeve housing of the rear bearing 1b and the outer periphery of the outer ring of the rear bearing 8 and on the other hand, the knurled portion of the shaft 9 for connecting the rear polar wheel 5 of the rotor 20 with the shaft 9 knowing that the rear fan 12 in this case has blades of greater radial height than those of the front fan 10 less powerful. The bottom of the rear bearing 1b carries at the rear (on the side opposite the rotor 20) a brush holder (not referenced), which belongs in a known manner to a brush holder assembly voltage regulator that presents the alternator. The brush holder has two brushes each intended to come into contact with one of the collector rings of the connector for powering the winding 21 of the rotor. In the lower part of this FIG. 2 is seen the connection of one of the ends of the stator winding with one of the electrical conductors of a connector (not referenced) belonging in this embodiment to a current rectifier bridge. alternating DC current carried by the bottom of the bearing lb on the rear side thereof. This bridge comprises for example negative diodes fitted into the bottom of the rear bearing lb constituting a heat sink and positive diodes mounted in an electrically conductive positive heat sink carrying a terminal for connection by a cable with the positive terminal of the battery 20 of the motor vehicle. The positive dissipator is electrically insulated by the rear bearing. The diodes may be mounted for example head to tail as in document FR 2 734 425 to which reference will be made for more details. This document also shows the brush-holder voltage regulator assembly. In a variant, the tails of the diodes are oriented axially in the same direction.
    [0007] The number of pairs of diodes depends on the applications, in particular the number of phases that the alternator comprises. For example, for a three-phase machine, at least three pairs of diodes are provided. In known manner the number of teeth 41, 51 that each wheel 4, 5 varies between six and eight. The number of slots in the stator body 6 depends on the number of phases of the alternator. Thus for wheels 4, 5 each having six teeth there is provided for a three-phase alternator 36 notches in the body of the stator 6. For wheels 4, 5 each having 7 teeth and a seven-phase alternator is provided 98 notches in the stator body 6. For wheels 4, 5 each having six teeth and a seven-phase alternator there are 84 notches in the stator body 6.
    [0008] The number of phases of the alternator may be 3, 5, 6 or 7 phases, two windings per phase may be provided. The phases may be mounted in a star and / or in a triangle, the connector of the bridge being arranged accordingly. In FIG. 2 it can be seen that all the electronic components (diodes, voltage regulator) are carried by the bottom of the electrically conductive rear bearing 1b as the bearing before the. This bearing 1b has a fixing projection (not referenced) on a fixed part, for example in the form of a tab or an ear, which is perforated for the passage of fastening means, such as a screw of the rear bearing 1b to the motor block of the motor vehicle. This bearing lb is thus electrically connected to ground and constitutes a negative heat sink. It is the same for the bearing before the, which has two fixing projections (not referenced) on a fixed part, for example in the form of tabs or ears, holes for the passage of fastening means, such as screws, from the rear bearing to the engine block of the vehicle. The casing 1 of the alternator is thus fixed at three points to the engine block. As a variant, the fixed projections consist of at least one tangentially oriented plate with respect to the peripheral rim of one of the bearings 1a, 1 of which it is integral. This plate comprises at least one hole, alternatively two holes for passage for fastening means to the engine block of the vehicle. Two diametrically opposed plates may be provided on the bearing before the. The number of attachment points depends, of course, on the applications. A perforated protective cover 2, for example made of reinforced plastic or sheet metal, 20 covers the brush-holder voltage regulator assembly and the rectifier bridge. This cover 2 is secured to the rear bearing 1b by being hollow. Openings (not referenced) are provided in the bottom of the cover and in the peripheral skirt that the cover 2 has at its outer periphery for the circulation of air inside the machine via the rear fan 12, which thus cools the integrated electronics of the alternator and is therefore more powerful than the fan 10. In a known manner the alternator is located in the vicinity of the front face of the engine block of the vehicle and the motion transmission belt. intervenes between a driving pulley secured to the crankshaft and the pulley 3 constituting a driven pulley. The crankshaft pulley is located at the front of the engine block of the vehicle. The belt can also be used to drive another vehicle accessory, such as the air conditioning compressor pulley or the water pump pulley, implanted in a known manner, in the vicinity of the front face of the vehicle. When the engine of the vehicle rotates after starting with a starter 3032746 11 and the excitation coil 21 of the rotor 20 is electrically powered via the brush voltage regulator assembly, the rotor 20 is magnetized and the teeth 41, 51 constitute North and South poles and create a magnetic flux induced in the stator 6. An alternating current then flows in the winding of the stator 6. This alternating current is then rectified in the bridge to produce a direct current. to power the consumers of the vehicle and / or recharge the vehicle battery. As a variant, the current rectifier bridge is replaced by an inverter comprising, for example, MOSFET transistors replacing the diodes as described, for example, in document FR 2 745 444. Means for monitoring the rotation of the rotor, such as, for example, first, Hall sensors carried by a sensor holder vis-à-vis a magnetic target carried for example by the rear fan 12 or the polar wheel 5 associated with a magnetic target, or secondly a resolver are associated with this inverter. It is thus created a reversible alternator called alternator-starter which allows in particular to replace the starter to start the engine, the alternator then operating in electric motor mode to drive the pulley 3, which then becomes a driving pulley driving the pulley of the crankshaft. The electronic components of this inverter can then be carried by a separate housing of the machine or may be integrated into the machine being for example mounted above the rear bearing lb on a mezzanine integral with the rear bearing lb and belonging to the housing. The alternator / starter, in addition to its function as a starter and its function 20 of stopping the engine (called Stop-Start function in English), may perform other functions depending on its power namely a regenerative braking function , a charging function of an ultra capacity and an anti-calibration function of the engine of the motor vehicle.
    [0009] A problem then arises when it is desired to equip this rotary electric machine with a device for adjusting the tension of the belt because in the aforementioned patents the front bearing has an additional function of supporting this adjustment device. In patent AT 130902 the front bearing is not arranged to allow a circulation of air inside the rotating electrical machine.
    [0010] In the patent EP 0 459 894 the housing has a complicated shape given the mounting (not visible) of the pulley to be performed. Without changing the size of the rotor and stator, it is conceivable to make the support flange of the belt tension adjuster separate from the front bearing and to fix this support flange 3032746 12 to the housing of the electric machine. . It is then necessary to increase the overhang of the pulley and therefore in particular to increase the size of the rear bearing which has the effect on the mechanical and / or electronic environment of the rotating electrical machine because it is appropriate not to increase the size of the rear bearing 8 to avoid any mechanical interference, in particular with the rear fan 12, or with the sensor holder, or with the resolver. It is also necessary to avoid a modification of the protective cover and, when the rotating electrical machine is equipped with an integrated electronics, a modification of the interface with the integrated electronics of the machine.
    [0011] OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The object of the present invention is to reconcile these conflicting requirements.
    [0012] The object of the present invention is therefore to create a specific front bearing which makes it possible not to change the dimensions of the rear bearing of the machine and thus to create a specific front bearing allowing air circulation inside the electric machine. rotating while allowing attachment of the device for adjusting the tension of the belt on the housing.
    [0013] According to the invention, a rotary electric machine of the aforementioned type comprising at the front a pulley provided with a groove and integral with a rotor shaft passing through the front bearing of a housing configured to be fixed on a fixed part, the said bearing comprising a bottom provided with a mounting nose of a ball bearing for rotation of the shaft and air inlet openings delimited by arms connecting the nose to a band of peripheral material of the bottom, is characterized in that the arms belong to an outwardly flared zone connecting the strip of material to the nose for shifting to the front of the nose, in that it comprises a device for adjusting the tension of a belt received in the groove of the pulley and fixed to the housing, in that the adjusting device comprises at least one tensioning roller of the belt and a central opening allowing the passage of air through the inlet openings of the belt. air and in that the shift of the nose forward is a function of the central thickness of the adjustment device.
    [0014] Thanks to the invention increases the distance between the front and rear bearings which allows to save the rear bearing despite the axial and transverse vibrations transmitted by the belt. Thus, the rear bearing and the rotor, the stator, the electro-truncated components, the cover and the fan (s) of the machine can be retained. The adjustment device allows the passage of air.

    [0016] In the figures, identical or similar elements will be assigned the same reference signs. Descriptions of Exemplary Embodiments of the Invention Regarding the elements of FIGS. 4 to 8, reference will be made to the description of FIGS. 2 and 3 for further details; identical or similar elements being assigned the same reference signs. The front and back terms correspond to a left-to-right orientation in Figures 6-8.
    [0017] As in FIGS. 2 and 3, the rotary electric machine of FIGS. 4 to 8 comprises at the front a pulley 3 for receiving a flexible transmission belt intervening between the pulley 3 and a crankshaft pulley implanted on the front face of a combustion engine of a motor vehicle. The belt can also be used to drive the pulley of at least one other accessory of the motor vehicle such as the pulley of the air conditioning compressor of the vehicle. The rotary electric machine of FIGS. 4 to 8 is provided according to the invention with a device 100 for adjusting the tension of the belt comprising at least one tensioning roller 200, 201.
    [0018] The roller or rollers 200, 201 are aligned with the pulley 3. This device 100 operates at the front face of the heat engine of the vehicle connected at the rear to a gearbox. As mentioned above, the rotating electrical machine comprises in FIGS. 4 to 8 a casing 1a, 1b shaped to be fixed on a fixed part and on which is mounted on the one hand a stator 6 and on the other hand, centrally in favor of bearing means 7, 8, such as ball bearings with one or two rows of balls, a rotary rotor shaft 9 whose axis of axial symmetry (shown in FIG. 7) defines the axis of rotation of the machine. The shaft 9 is secured to a rotor 20 rotating inside the stator 6. A pulley 3 is mounted outside the housing and at one end, said front end, of the shaft 9 by example by screwing.
    [0019] The casing comprises at least one flange before the adjacent pulley 3 and a rear flange lb furthest from the pulley. These flanges 1a, lb are called respectively front bearing and rear bearing. They are advantageously moldable material, here aluminum. In Figures 4 to 8 they have a hollow shape and have a peripheral flange (see Figure 6, reference 338 for the edge of the bearing before the).
    [0020] In FIGS. 4 to 8 according to the invention only the elements necessary for the understanding of the invention have been shown. Thus the flexible motion transmission belt, described in the introduction, has not been shown, knowing that the upper part of the belt is intended to cooperate with the or the rollers 200, 201, while the inner part of the belt is intended to cooperate with the groove 31 of the pulley 3. Similarly the conformation of the housing for its attachment to a fixed part, such as fixing projections of the bearings before the and rear lb to a fixed part has not been represented in FIGS. 4 to 7, as they are visible in FIG. 2 and also in FIG. 8 (see perforated lugs 111 and 112 respectively belonging to the front bearing and the rear bearing 1b). The number of protrusions depends on the applications. In Figure 8 the ears 111, 112, holes for the passage of fastening means to the engine block of the vehicle are axially aligned and belong to a first zone of attachment to the engine block of the vehicle. In practice, at least one other fixing lug belonging to the bearing 1b or to the bearing 1b is provided for forming a second attachment zone to the engine block. As a variant, one of the bearings 1a, 1b has a tangentially oriented fixing plate with respect to its peripheral rim. The plate, located in the upper or lower part of the peripheral flange of the bearing 1a, 1b concerned, comprises for example two holes for the passage of fastening means to the engine block, such as screws or tie rods. The holes extend perpendicularly to the axis of the shaft 9. In a variant, one of the bearings 1a, 1b comprises at least one protruding barrel for the passage of fastening means to the engine block. The barrel or barrels extend axially or perpendicularly with respect to the axis of axial symmetry 10 of the shaft 9. Thus, the same bearing 1a, 1b can comprise two barrels in replacement of a tangential plate. In one embodiment the front bearing is provided with two diametrically opposed tangential plates for fixing the housing to the engine block, one of the plates being alternatively replaced by two guns. The casing is thus fixed to the engine block only by the front bearing. the. The opposite is also possible, the housing being fixed to the engine block only via the rear bearing 1b. As mentioned in the introduction, the pulley 3 is advantageously in the embodiment of FIGS. 4 to 8 a pulley for receiving a six-tooth poly-V type belt intended to cooperate in a complementary manner with the six grooves of the throat. 31 of the metal pulley 3, for example steel or aluminum, identical to that of Figure 2. The pulley 3 is alternatively coated with plastic or alternatively be plastic reinforced with fibers and / or loads. All the aforementioned variants of association of the pulley with the belt are of course conceivable, namely: - pulley with a receiving groove of a flat belt; - pulley with groove for receiving a V-belt; - pulley with a groove for receiving a flexible toothed belt; In all cases the pulley is secured to one end of the shaft 9 secured to the rotor 20 and 30 which passes through the bearings 1a, 1b. Fixing the pulley 3 to the shaft 9 is made for example as in Figure 2 by screwing. Advantageously, rotational locking means intervene between the pulley 3 and the shaft 3032746 18 9, in particular when the rotating electrical machine is an alternator-starter, to prevent loosening of the pulley 3. For example the pulley 3 is welded to the pulley. end of the threading of the shaft 9 as described in WO 2007/099260 to which reference will be made for more details. Thus, in FIG. 8, the fingerprints of the pulley for receiving the external tool are seen. Alternatively the welding is replaced by a bonding. In a variant, the front end of the shaft comprises a frustoconical portion intended to cooperate with the edge of the central hole of complementary shape of the pulley. A key can intervene between the shaft and the pulley. Of course the rear sleeve of the pulley can be replaced in the aforementioned manner by a ring.
    [0021] Thus the pulley 3 remains tight especially when it is leading and led. In FIGS. 4 to 8, the rotor 20 is a claw rotor with trapezoidally shaped teeth axially oriented in a variant of a curved shape, as in FIG. 2. In a variant, as mentioned above: 15 - the rotor of the rotating electrical machine is a rotor with salient poles; the claw rotor is provided with permanent magnets between its teeth as described for example in document FR 2 784 248, the number of pairs of magnets being equal to or less than the number of pairs of teeth; the protruding pole rotor is provided with permanent magnets as described, for example, in WO 02/0251566 or in WO 2013/136021 to which reference will be made; - The rotor of the rotating electrical machine is a permanent magnet rotor as described for example in EP 0831 580 to which reference will be made.
    [0022] In these Figures 4 to 8 the rotating electrical machine is a reversible alternator called alternator-starter. As aforesaid this alternator-starter, in addition to its function as a starter and its on-off function of the engine of the vehicle, can achieve depending on its power other functions. Alternatively: the rotating electrical machine is an electric motor; - The rotating electrical machine is an electric motor without brushes and controlled by an inverter as described for example in EP 0831 580; - the electric machine is a belt starter. 3032746 19 - The rotating electrical machine is an alternator. It will be noted that an electric motor with a permanent magnet rotor, such as that of document EP 0 831 580, is reversible when its shaft is integral with a pulley mentioned above for receiving a motion transmission belt. This engine can therefore be an alternator when it is driven via the belt by the pulley of the engine of the crankshaft of the vehicle. We can interpose a freewheel between the shaft and the pulley to turn this electric motor starter. Thus a same belt can drive from the crankshaft pulley of the engine of the vehicle, can drive the pulley of a belt starter and the pulley of a conventional alternator and possibly the pulley of the compressor of the installation air conditioning. In all cases, the rotating electrical machine comprises at the front a pulley 3 for receiving a belt attached to a rotor shaft 9 passing through the front bearing of a housing configured to be fixed on a fixed part, said bearing bearing a mounting nose 18 of a ball bearing 7 of rotation of the shaft 9 and air inlet openings 15. The nose 18 is generally annular in shape and comprises a sleeve 22 and a Sail 32 as in Figures 2 and 3. In Figure 5 we see the holes for fixing the retaining ring (not referenced in Figures 6 to 8) of the outer ring of the bearing 7. The inner ring of the In these figures, the rotating electrical machine is equipped with a device for adjusting the tension of the belt 100 and it can be seen that according to a characteristic of the invention, the displacement is 25 (see FIG. 4 and 5) the nose 18 for mounting the ball bearing 7 towards the front ant for implanting the belt tension adjuster (Figs. 6-8). This offset is a function of the thickness of the central portion of the adjustment device 100, which has a central opening 102 (FIGS. 6 to 8) allowing air to pass through the inlets 15.
    [0023] In these FIGS. 4 and 5, it can be seen that the air inlet openings 14 are delimited circumferentially by inclined arms 28, 138 connecting the nose 18 to a generally annular strip of peripheral material 238.
    [0024] This strip of material 238 is generally of transverse orientation relative to the axis of the shaft 9 and partially delimits the bottom of the bearing before the generally annular shape. According to one characteristic, the front bearing comprises a bottom 238, 138, 28, 18 comprising a band of peripheral material 238 extended at the front by arms 138, 28, on the one hand, belonging to a zone flared towards the outside connecting the nose 18 protruding forward to the strip of material 238 and on the other hand, delimiting the air inlets 15. In Figures 4 to 8 the front bearing is hollow-shaped la and this strip of material 238 device delimits the upper edge of the air inlets 15 and the lower edge of the air outlets 14 affecting the peripheral flange 338 of the front bearing of the hollow form. Thus, the hollow front bearing 1a has an annular peripheral rim 338 connected at the front to a bottom 238, 138, 28, 18 comprising a strip of material 238 extended at the front by arms 138, 28 delimiting the air inlets 15 and connected to the nose 18 protruding forward. The arms 138, 28 belong to an outwardly flared zone connecting the nose 18 to the material web 238 of the bottom of the front bearing. In FIGS. 4 and 5, the flared zone comprises two series of arms 138, 28, an arm 138 being inserted circumferentially between two arms 28. The arms 138 are thicker than the arms 28. These thick arms 138 are stiffening arms of the bottom of the bearing 1a and are advantageously ribbed as visible in Figure 5 to further increase their rigidity. They affect the strip of material 238 and are extended outwardly to join a radial protuberance in the form of an ear (not referenced) that has the flange 338. This protuberance is perforated for the passage of a tie rod of the bearing before the rear bearing lb. One of the tie rods is visible at 110 in Figure 8.
    [0025] The arms 138 have a specific radius of connection to the material web 238 to reduce stresses. The arms 138, 18 may be inclined circumferentially in the direction indicated by the arrow in Figure 5 corresponding to the direction of rotation of the pulley 3 when it is driven (see also arrow F1 of Figure 2).
    [0026] As a variant, the bottom of the bearing 1 has only thinner arms 28 inclined or non circumferentially. In one embodiment (not visible) the front bearing has a fixed bottom 3032746 21 directly on the rear bearing lb with the air outlets 14. The attachment can be made using screws. According to one characteristic (FIG. 7), the spacer 33, traversed by the shaft 9 and interposed between the inner ring of the bearing 7 and the front face of the pole wheel 4 of the claw rotor, has an axial length greater than the length axial axis of the inner ring of the bearing 7. This feature allows to shift the nose 18 forward. According to another characteristic (see FIG. 7) the axial length of the spacer 33 is greater than the axial length of the inner ring of the rear bearing 8 of smaller diameter than the front bearing 7. Advantageously the axial length of the rear bearing 8 is less than the axial length of the bearing 7.
    [0027] In all cases, the rotor and stator structure of the machine and the size of the rear bearing 8 and that of the rear fan 12 are advantageously preserved. The electronics of the machine may be retained, in particular the rectifier bridge and / or the means for monitoring the rotation of the rotor. The openings 14, 16, 17 can be preserved as well as the hood 2 and the fans 10, 12 knowing that the front fan 10 can alternatively be a fan flange as described in the document WO 2013/136021 supra. It will be appreciated that the rear bearing 8, of smaller diameter than the bearing 7, is less stressed with respect to a solution in which the nose 18 is not shifted forward knowing that the belt received in the pulley generates vibrations. axial and transverse. All forms of the bearing are obtained easily by molding and the fastening means, described below, that presents the housing for fixing the device 100. First embodiment In Figures 4 to 7 the alternator-starter differs that of Figures 2 and 3 by its nose 18 extended forwards in the aforementioned manner and its belt tension adjusting device.
    [0028] It also differs in that stator 6 has a stator body 106 in the form of a bundle of sheets, the notches of which are configured for mounting a two-layer bar-shaped coil 107. extending on either side of the body 106 of the stator as described for example in the document EP 0 881 752, to which reference will be made for more details. As a variant, it comprises more than two pairs of conductor layers. The number of notches of the body 106 depends above-mentioned on the number of phases and the number of teeth of its pole wheels 4, 5, which may vary from 6 to 8 per pole wheel 4, 5.
    [0029] The connection of the rotor shaft 9 with the pole wheels is also different, the hub of the claw rotor being in two parts each belonging to one of the pole wheels 4, 5 as can be seen in FIG. 7. This connection is crimped here, the shaft 9 having a centering zone and two crimping zones disposed on either side of the centering zone for fixing the ends respectively front and rear of the wheels 4, 5 by crimping as described in FIG. EP 2,067,238 to which reference will be made. In the light of this document we see that permanent magnets can be interspersed circumferentially between two consecutive teeth of a wheel 4 and a wheel 5 to increase the power of the machine. Of course, the assembly of the wheels 4, 5 is alternatively carried out in the aforementioned manner by means of knurled portions of the shaft 9. Another difference relates to the fact that the electronics of the machine comprises an inverter mounted on a mezzanine of the housing (referenced 27 in FIG. 8) mounted above the bottom of the rear bearing 1b with the help of balusters 23 as described for example in document WO 2006/129030 and in document WO 2004 / 040738 to which we will refer. In FIG. 7, reference is made to the collector at 24 and to the aforementioned voltage regulator brush assembly 24 with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. The reference 25 designates the magnetic target that the starter-starter has the monitoring of the rotation of the rotor. For more details, see for example WO 01/69762.
    [0030] In this embodiment the connector 26 and the brush holder are interposed between the bottom of the rear bearing 1b and the mezzanine. In the embodiment of FIG. 8, pipes (not referenced) for cooling the mezzanine 27 with a cooling liquid are shown. In this embodiment, the adjustment device 100 comprises two coaxial parts. 101, 104 rotatably mounted relative to each other against elastic means (not visible) with circumferential action and preferably friction means. These parts 101, 104 have an axis coincident with that of the shaft 9 and therefore have the same axis as that of the shaft 9. These portions 101, 104 are centrally perforated and each carry a roller 200, 201 tensioner of the belt each favor a protrusion (unreferenced). The holes of the parts have a diameter allowing the passage of air through the air inlets.
    [0031] The parts 101, 104 are advantageously made of sheet metal for reducing the thickness of the device 100. The internal bore 102 of the parts 101, 104 is of frustoconical shape adapted to the flared zone of the arms 138, 28, a gap existing between them. arm 138, 28 and the outer edge of the bore 102 for introduction of air into the casing la, lb of the alternator-starter, which is internally ventilated as in Figures 2 and 3.
    [0032] The axial offset of the nose 18 therefore depends on the thickness of the central portion of the portions 101, 104 and therefore of the central portion of the device 100 with a central hole. It is the flared zone that allows this shift of the nose 18 forward. Thus according to the invention a rotary electric machine of the aforementioned type comprising at the front a pulley 3 provided with a groove 31 and secured to a rotor shaft 9 passing through the bearing before the housing configured to be fixed on a fixed part, said bearing comprising a bottom 238, 138, 28, 18 having a mounting nose 18 of a ball bearing 7 of rotation of the shaft 9 and of the inlet openings The air delimited by arms 138, 28 connecting the nose 18 to a peripheral material strip 238 of the bottom, is characterized in that the arms 138, 28 belong to an outwardly flared zone connecting the material web 238. at the nose 18 for forward shifting of the nose 18, in that it comprises a device for adjusting the tension 100 of a belt received in the groove 31 of the pulley 3 and fixed on the casing 1a, 1b and in that the adjusting device 100 comprises at least one roller 200, 201 of the belt and a central opening a utorising the passage of air through the air inlet openings 15 and in that the offset of the nose 18 forwards is a function of the central thickness of the adjusting device 100. external periphery of the radial projections 103, here radial ears, holes 103 for its attachment to the casing la, lb, which in another embodiment can be in three parts assembled namely a bearing before the, a rear bearing lb and an intermediate portion interposed axially between the bearings 1a and 1b and carrying the stator. This intermediate portion may alternatively wear the electronics of the machine in favor of a platinum. In a variant, the electronics of the machine may be carried by a plate of the rear bearing 1b. In a variant, the projections 103 consist of radial tabs. In Figures 4 to 8 there are three radial lugs 103 fixed on the protuberances of the housing of the machine.
    [0033] In the embodiment of FIGS. 4 to 7, the bearing 1a comprises an axial protuberance 438 for fixing with a screw 301 of a radial lug 103 on an axial protuberance 438 that the peripheral rim 338 has at its periphery. The other two ears 103 are connected by tie rods with projecting ears that the mezzanine 15 presents. To do this, refer to Figure 8 showing in 300 one of the tie rods and one of the ears of the mezzanine. Alternatively as shown in Figure 8 one of the ears can be fixed by a screw to a radial ear of the bearing before the mezzanine. As a variant, the portion 104 is fixed via its three lugs 103 on axial protuberances of the type of the protuberance 438 that the bearing 1a. In this case the bearing is advantageously provided in the aforementioned manner two plates, one of which may be replaced by two guns. The number of ears 103 depends on the applications and may be greater than three. In all cases the part 104 is a fixed part, while the part 101 is rotatable relative to the fixed part 104 and constitutes the adjustment arm of the device 100. The part 104 carries a tensioning roller 201 of the belt in favor of a protrusion (not referenced), which is in this embodiment generally ear-shaped.
    [0034] Likewise, the portion 101 carries a tensioning roller 200 of the belt by means of a protrusion (not referenced), which is in this generally ear-shaped embodiment. The portions 101, 104 are generally annular and each have a support projection of a roller 200, 201 respectively.
    [0035] The rollers 200, 201 are located on either side of the pulley 3 beneath it as can be seen in FIGS. 6 and 8. Of course, the rollers 200, 201 are aligned axially with the pulley 3. The roller 200 is biased when the alternator-starter is in alternator mode, while the roller 201 is biased in alternator mode. The belt makes a loop at the rollers 200, 201 and the pulley 3. More precisely the upper part of the belt, in engagement with the crankshaft pulley, comes into contact with the roller 200, then comes from its lower part. in contact with the bottom of the groove 31 and finally comes into contact with the roller 201 before winding on the crankshaft pulley possibly passing through the pulley of the air conditioning compressor at the outlet of the roller 201.
    [0036] The roller 200 can move under the action of circumferentially acting elastic means acting between the parts 101, 104 to tension the belt and adjust the tension thereof to its optimum to prevent slipping thereof and to filter the vibrations in the aforementioned manner. Part 101 is therefore a moving part of adjustment.
    [0037] The rollers 200, 201 are rotatably mounted respectively on the portion 101 and on the portion 104 by means of a pivot, such as a bolt as in the aforementioned EP 0 459 894. Such a bolt is visible in Figure 8. A bearing may be inserted between the pivot and the inner edge of the roller 200, 201 as described in EP 0 459 894.
    [0038] The elastic means with circumferential action may be a spiral spring as in EP 0 459 894 to which reference will be made, one end of the spiral spring being integral in rotation with the fixed portion 104 and the other end of the spiral spring. integral with rotation of the movable portion 101. The rotational mounting of the movable portion 101 may be realized as in EP 0 459 894 to which reference will be made. The friction means, such as a friction washer, may be interposed between the outer face of the portion 101 and the inner face of the folded end of the fixed portion 104 being bonded to the portion 101 or the end folded from part 104.
    [0039] In a variant, the circumferentially acting elastic means consist of a torsion spring. As described for example in the CN 203431112U utility model to which reference will be made. In this case the portion 104 may have an inner centering sleeve for the portion 101 with the intervention of friction means. The inner diameter of the sleeve is dimensioned for passage of air through the openings 15. Second embodiment In EP 0 459 894 there is provided a version with a curved spring acting between the two parts of the device. setting. Such a spring can be mounted between the two parts 101, 104. In this embodiment of Figure 8 the curved spring is replaced by a blade 105 in the form of a circular arc between the two parts 101, 102. The ends of this spring are fixed on the parts 101 and 104 in the vicinity of the rollers 200, 201. Advantageously the ends of the spring 105 are in the form of loops each wound around the pivot, such as a bolt, concerned rollers 200, 201. The pivots are then extended and each loop is interposed between the part and the roller concerned. There is thus formed a pendulum intervening between the two parts 101 and 102. This pendulum absorbs the voltage peaks in the belt and moderates the slippage 15 of the belt. It makes it possible to reduce the tension of the belt and increases the service life of the front bearing 7. In this variant the fixed part may centrally present a centering sleeve of the movable part 101 and a rear washer for mounting a friction washer. intervening between the fixed part 104 and an internal flange that has the moving part 101.
    [0040] It should be noted that the rotor of this embodiment may be a rotor of the type described in the aforementioned document WO 2013/136021. Third Embodiment The invention is applicable to the alternator of FIGS. 2 and 3. In this case, the front bearing is configured as in FIGS. 4 and 5 and their variant and the roller 201 associated with the fixed part 104 is eliminated. Of course, all the structural variants of FIGS. 4 to 8 are applicable to the alternator of FIGS. 2 and 3 modified. Other embodiments The structures can be reversed. Thus, the fixed part 104 may be fixed on axial protuberances which the strip of material 238 presents, the movable part 101 being interposed axially between the front bearing and the fixed part 104. In this case the device must be mounted. 100 after the belt.
    [0041] In all cases, the device 100 comprises two coaxial portions 101, 104 rotatably mounted relative to each other against elastic means with circumferential action and the offset of the nose 18 depends on the central thickness. device 100 centrally perforated for passage of air through the air inlet openings 15. The axis of the parts 101, 104 corresponds to the axis of the shaft 9. The solution frees space at the level from the outer periphery of the bearing 1a. The central opening 102 of the device may be circular, the inner diameter of this opening allowing passage of the air through the air inlet openings 15.
    [0042] The stator of the machine may comprise teeth on which connected coils are mounted, some of which are interconnected to form one of the phases of the rotating electrical machine. For more details, see for example WO 2007/031679 describing the number of teeth The teeth can be reported on a cylinder head.
    [0043] The stator winding may have two or more continuous wire layers instead of bars. The rotating electrical machine may comprise a single front fan 10 and a front bearing provided with openings 14, 15, the other bearing being cooled by a circulation of liquid, such that the cooling water of the engine of the vehicle to the favor of a channel that he presents for this purpose. The front bearing may therefore be shallower, see having only one bottom, the air outlet openings 14 being made in the rear bearing lb The fans 10 and 12 may have the aforementioned forms including introduction. Only one fan can be provided namely a rear fan 12 which sucks the air. In this case the bearing may include only air inlets 15.
