Abstract

A mechanically commutated electric motor is at least partially arranged in a closure apparatus for a housing. The closure apparatus includes at least a first rod-like throttle coil and a second rod-like throttle coil which are wound in opposite directions with coil wire and which are arranged parallel to one another. The first throttle coil is electrically directly coupled to a first coupling element provided for electrical coupling to the mechanically commutated electric motor, and the second throttle coil is electrically directly coupled to a second coupling element provided for electrical coupling to the mechanically commutated electric motor, such that, when the mechanically commutated electric motor is connected to the coupling elements and the mechanically commutated electric motor is operated, the magnetic fluxes (Phi 1 , Phi 2 ) in the first throttle coil and second throttle coil at least partially compensate one another.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A closure apparatus ( 7 ) for a housing ( 3 ), in which a mechanically commutated electric motor ( 5 ) is at least partially arranged, the closure apparatus ( 7 ) comprising:
a first rod-shaped inductor coil ( 19 a ) having a mid-axis ( 21 a );
a second rod-shaped inductor coil ( 19 b ), having a mid-axis ( 21 b ), around which coil wire is wound with a winding sense opposite the winding sense of the first rod-shaped inductor coil ( 19 a ), the first rod-shaped inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second rod-shaped inductor coil ( 19 b ) being arranged parallel to one another in the closure apparatus ( 7 ); and
a base ( 8 ) in which the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) are arranged along their mid-axes ( 21 a , 21 b ) parallel to the base ( 8 ) on and/or at least partially in the base,
wherein:
the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) is coupled electrically directly to a first coupling element ( 20 a ) electrically coupled to the mechanically commutated electric motor ( 5 ), and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) is coupled electrically directly to a second coupling element ( 20 b ) electrically coupled to the mechanically commutated electric motor ( 5 ), such that upon connection of the mechanically commutated electric motor ( 5 ) to the first and second coupling elements ( 20 a , 20 b ) and during operation of the mechanically commutated electric motor ( 5 ), the magnetic fluxes (Φ 1 , (Φ 2 ) in the first and second inductor coils ( 19 a , 19 b ) at least partially compensate for one another, and

the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) have an at least approximately identical inductor coil diameter (D), and the ratio of a distance (A) between the respective mid-axes ( 21 a , 21 b ) of the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) to the inductor coil diameter (D) is greater than 1 and less than 1.8.

2. The closure apparatus ( 7 ) as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the ratio of the distance (A) between the respective mid-axes ( 21 a , 21 b ) of the
first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) to the inductor coil diameter (D) is greater than 1 and less than 1.5.

3. The closure apparatus ( 7 ) as claimed in claim 2 ,
wherein the ratio of the distance (A) between the respective mid-axes ( 21 a , 21 b ) of the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) to the inductor coil diameter (D) is greater than 1 and less than 1.3.

4. The closure apparatus ( 7 ) as claimed in claim 1 ,
wherein the ratio of the distance (A) between the respective mid-axes ( 21 a , 21 b ) of the first inductor coil ( 19 a ) and the second inductor coil ( 19 b ) to the inductor coil diameter (D) is greater than 1.5 and less than 1.8.
