    [0001] FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to a bearing-bonnet assembly for an internally ventilated rotating electrical machine, such as an alternator or a vehicle alternator-starter. automobile, wherein the cover encloses at least one electronic component and comprises at least one radial opening of air passage, at least one axial opening of air inlet, a skirt and a bottom in which the axial opening is made of air passage. The present invention also relates to a rotating electrical machine comprising such a deflector. PRIOR ART FIG. 1 is shown diagrammatically and partially in axial half-section, a rotating electrical machine with internal ventilation of the prior art in the form of a polyphase alternator for motor vehicles of the type described in the document. US-B-7 019 424. This machine comprises a device for forced circulation of a cooling fluid, such as air, a stator 3 provided with a winding and a rotor 40, which are housed in a housing. provided with at least two flanges respectively called front bearing and rear bearing. Only the rear bearing 6 is visible in FIG. 1. At least one of the two bearings comprises a front face 164 and a generally cylindrical peripheral skirt 161; this skirt having an open free end and an end closed by the end face constituting the bottom 35 of the bearing. This bearing, here of hollow form, comprises fresh air intake openings 18 made in the end face 164, and hot air discharge slots 162 made in the skirt 161. Each slot 162 comprises an axial portion s extending in the skirt 161 and a radial portion extending in a peripheral zone of the end face 164. Here some of the slots 162 have a radial portion of larger size than the others. The openings 18 here have a generally trapezoidal shape.
    [0002] The front and rear bearings are fixed to each other, for example by means of tie rods, to form the housing housing stator 3 and rotor 40 as visible for example in documents US-B-7 019 424 , EP-A-0 515 259 and US-A-0,448,8070.
    [0003] For this purpose the rear bearing 6 has thickenings 267 holes for each the passage of a tie screwing into a thickening of the front bearing as can be seen for example in Figure 1 of EP 0 515 259.
    [0004] It is also provided a protective cover 12, here ring-shaped and hollow. The cover is a protective cover of at least one electronic component. This cover encloses this component. Specifically in the documents EP-A-0 515 259 and US-B-7019 424 this cover is attached to the rear bearing, while in US-A-0 4,488,070 this cover is in one piece with the rear bearing. Electronic components, such as diodes 10, 10 'or MOSFET transistors, and / or at least one voltage regulator 165, are mounted within cover 12 as in FIG. in perspective and exploded from the rear of the alternator, identical to FIG. 8 of US Pat. No. 7,019,424. In this FIG. 2 the elements identical to those of FIG. 1 will be given the same reference signs. .
    [0005] The diodes 10, 10 'belong to a current rectification device 90 for rectifying the alternating current produced by the winding of the stator 3 in a direct current to supply the accessories and / or recharge the battery of the motor vehicle. This device 90 comprises a positive heat sink 1, a negative heat sink 164 and a connector 9. The sink 1 carries the set of diodes 10 '10 called positive diodes. It is secured to the face 164 by being fixed on it electrically insulated, for example by means of screws, via the connector 9. The reference 163 of Figure 2 designates a bracket for fixing the alternator on a fixed part of the motor vehicle. In this embodiment, the negative dissipator 164 is constituted by the face 164 of the bearing 6 and the holes made in this face 164 are also not referenced for mounting the diodes 10 intended here to be force-fitted each into a hole. This dissipator 164 is said negative dissipator and the diodes 10 are called negative diodes because the bearing 6 is connected to the mass of the motor vehicle Alternatively the negative dissipator is distinct from the bearing 6, as described for example in the document US-A4 488 070 above. The dissipator 1 here has fins 4 at its inner periphery. The connector 9 carries lugs 166. The hood 12, of annular and hollow shape, 30 has, like the bearing 6, a skirt 121 provided with a plurality of oblong radial air passage openings 16 and a bottom 120 having two series of openings 144, 30 axial air inlet. The openings 16 extend here circumferentially and in the vicinity of the end face 164 of the rear bearing 6.
    [0006] These openings 16 are radial air inlet openings and are axially offset relative to the openings 144, 30. The bottom 120 also comprises axial air inlet openings 155 opposite the voltage regulator 165 carried by the face 164 of the bearing 6. The skirt 121 also has a protrusion for the passage of the terminal 500, called terminal B +, intended to be connected via a cable to the positive terminal of the vehicle battery and it is for this reason that the heatsink 1 is called positive heatsink and the diodes 10 'positive diodes. This terminal 500 is integral with the dissipator 1, here metal as the bearing 6. The bearing 6 and the dissipator 1 are for example aluminum-based, 15 while the cover 12 is, in this embodiment, plastic . The skirt of the hood 12 has protrusions 266 of convex shape for the reception each of a tab 166. These projections 266 envelop the tabs 166 to protect them. These tabs 166 constitute the bare ends of electrically conductive traces embedded in the contactor 9, here of insulating plastic material. The connector 9 also comprises a network of electrically conductive traces for interconnecting the tails of the diodes 10, 10 ', as can also be seen for example in FIG. 5 of US-B7 019 424. Each lug 166 is intended to be connected here by crimping, at the output of one of the windings of the phases that comprises the winding of the stator 3, here polyphase. These outputs are visible for example in Figure 7 of US-B-7 019 424 to which reference will be made. These outlets pass through face 164 through specific openings thereof.
    [0007] It can be seen that the face 164 has, in the vicinity of its outer periphery, an annular extra thickness 168 for centering the skirt of the cover 12, in intimate contact at its inner periphery with the outer periphery of this extra thickness. The free end of the skirt 121 comes into contact with the face 164 at the extra thickness 168. This cover 12 is secured by any means to the bearing 6. For example the face 164 carries studs (not visible in Figure 1) for snap-fitting of the cover 12, whose bottom has a series of attachment points 270 with radially expandable tabs for engaging the threaded ends of the studs. For more details, see document WO-A-01/69762, in particular in FIG. 7 thereof. Alternatively the fixing is carried out using a nut screwing onto the threaded end of the stud or alternatively a bolt. FIG. 1 diagrammatically shows a part of the other components or constituents of the alternator, as well as the rear part of FIG. 2 of this alternator, knowing that the stator 3 surrounds the rotor 40 with the presence of a gap low value.
    [0008] The rotor 40 is integral with a shaft 50 and consists for example of a claw rotor, as visible in the aforementioned documents, or a rotor with salient poles. This rotor comprises at least one excitation coil whose ends are electrically connected to the voltage regulator via slip rings, brushes and a brush holder as described in EP 0 515 259 and US-A-4 488 070 to which we will refer. For simplicity it is not shown in Figure 1 the slip rings, brushes, the brush holder and the voltage regulator.
    [0009] The longitudinal or axial axis X-X of the shaft 50 constitutes the axis of symmetry and rotation of the alternator. This shaft 50 is supported by a bearing, such as a ball bearing 7 mounted in a corresponding housing 60, which is formed in the center of the end face 164 of the rear bearing 6. The stator 3 has a grooved body 20, example in the form of a pack of sheets, carrying the stator winding. This winding comprises at least one winding per phase. The windings pass through the stator body and extend on either side of the body of the stator for the formation of buns, one of which is visible diagrammatically at 21 in FIG. 1. As is known, the windings are made from continuous conductor wires or from conductive segments connected to each other by welding as described for example in document US-B-7 019 424. Advantageously, the welds of the segments are implanted at level of the front bun. In the example shown, there are six windings and therefore six lugs 166. Of course, this number depends on the applications and the number of windings and phases. This number may alternatively be equal to, for example, three, five or seven. The outputs of the windings are connected in the aforementioned manner to the tabs 166 of the connector 9. In known manner, when the rotor 40 rotates and when the excitation winding of the The rotor is electrically powered, the rotor is magnetized and creates an AC-type induced current in the windings of the stator winding 3, which must be rectified in direct current using the current rectifier 90.
    [0010] The tails of the diodes 10, 10 'are connected to the electrically conductive traces of the connector 9 for forming a diode bridge. The current rectifier 90, as well as the voltage regulator, is covered in the aforementioned manner by the protective cover 12 with openings 16, 144, 30, 155. The radial openings 16 are important for the cooling of the electric machine. rotating. Indeed, the increase in the electrical needs of motor vehicles leads to alternators which must produce an increasingly higher electric power, which generates a quantity of heat requiring significant improvements in their cooling, in particular of the diode bridge. At the same time, the engines for which these alternators are intended, are increasingly compact and do not allow an increase in the volume of these machines. The radial openings 16 participate in this cooling, without increasing volume. More precisely, the cooling of this alternator, in particular of the rectifying device 90 and the windings of the stator, is ensured by a forced circulation of a cooling fluid, such as air. This circulation is created using at least one internal fan 22 located inside the rear bearing 6, concentrically to the skirt 161 of the bearing 6 which surrounds it. This fan 22 comprises at least one circular plate 23 attached to one end of the rotor 40 here with claws, which it is secured for example by welding. The circular plate 23 carries a series of blades 24, which are located substantially to the right of the skirt 161 and below the bun 21. The fan 22 draws fresh air axially 35 through the air inlet openings 16 and 144, 30 in the form of openings, of the annular-shaped cover 12 for this air to cool in particular the diode bridge 10, 10 'and the voltage regulator 165. This air then passes through the front face 164 of the rear bearing 6 by the fresh air intake openings 18, to be discharged radially through hot air discharge slots 162, by the blades 24 of the fan 22. The air, which is discharged through the slots 162, also cools the bun 21 of the stator along the inner surface of the skirt 161, in particular at the discharge slots 162. Given the configuration of the dissipator 1 with fins 4 and the openings 144, 30 of the cover 12, two flow streams are obtained. F1 and F2 air as explained in the doc US-B-7 019 424 and visible in Figure 5 thereof. In FIG. 1, the flow of fresh air of FIG. 5 of this document US-B-7 019 424, which passes through the openings 16 of the cover 12, is not shown for clarity. the purpose of better showing the looping airflow. More specifically, the radial portions of the discharge slots 162, which are intended to allow the molding of the bearing 6 to be molded, are detrimental to cooling. In fact, they generate, on the one hand, vortices in the flow of discharge air, which introduces pressure drops, and, on the other hand, exhaust air F 'is sucked through the openings. external radials 16 of the hood with fresh air, knowing that the openings 16 are important for cooling the diodes or other electronic component housed inside the hood.
    [0011] There is therefore a phenomenon of looping of the air so that the discharge air F 'heats the and / or the electronic components housed inside the hood. This phenomenon is even more important when the size of the opening 16 is increased circumferentially and / or axially. To avoid this phenomenon, it is desirable to find a solution which does not modify the axial air intake openings. the hood and which uses at least one radial opening of air passage to keep the arrangement of or electronic components. It is also desirable not to excessively increase the radial size of the rotating electrical machine at the level of the skirt of its bearings belonging to the housing thereof. It is still desirable not to modify the air discharge slots of the bearings and to leave them clear. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The object of the invention is to meet these requirements and thus to improve the cooling of a bearing-bonnet assembly enclosing at least one electronic component without profoundly modifying the bearing design, while retaining the axial openings 30 of hood air inlet. The object of the invention is furthermore to propose a solution for improving the cooling of the electronic component (s) at the lowest manufacturing cost possible and without unduly increasing the radial size at the outer periphery of the bearing. invention a bearing-protection cover assembly for a rotating internal ventilation electrical machine, such as an alternator or a motor starter-alternator, in which the cover encloses at least one electronic component and comprises at least one radial passage opening air, at least one axial air inlet opening, a skirt and a bottom in which the axial air inlet opening is formed, is characterized in that it comprises at least one cooling duct of the electronic component adjacent to the skirt of the hood and in that the radial opening of the air passage constitutes the outlet of the chimney. According to the invention, a rotating electrical machine with internal ventilation, such as an alternator or an alternator-starter of a motor vehicle, is characterized in that it comprises such a bearing-cover protection assembly.
    [0012] Thanks to the invention is avoided inside the hood looping phenomena or recirculation of the air having been heated by the constituents implanted in the housing of the rotating electrical machine. In addition, the flow of incoming air is increased by the radial opening of the air inlet constituting the outlet of the chimney. This increases the airflow inside the hood. The electronic component (s) are thus well cooled.
    [0013] It is possible to increase the axial and / or circumferential size of the radial opening to further increase the flow of air entering the hood and to further cool the electronic component (s) due to the presence of the chimney. Thus, in the case of the alternator of FIGS. 1 and 2, it is possible to increase the flow of air passing between the diodes 10, 10 'because the size of the radial opening 16 can be increased by means of the chimney.
    [0014] In addition, the axial air inlets in the bottom of the hood are not modified and the arrangement of the electronic component (s) inside the hood is not changed. Part of the skirt is used to implant the fireplace, which is economical.
    [0015] This stack is offset axially relative to the housing, more precisely with respect to the air discharge slots, that is to say with respect to the outer periphery of the bearing associated with the cover, so that it does not interfere with with these and does not disturb the internal ventilation of the rotating electrical machine. This chimney does not increase the radial size of the machine at its housing. Being a rotating electrical machine in the form of an alternator or an alternator / starter having electronic components, such as diodes or other current rectifying elements, such as MOSFET transistors, and / or a voltage regulator protected by the cover, it minimizes the phenomena of looping or recirculation of the air leaving the stator of the machine and entering the hood and increases the flow of air inside hood. Thus the current rectifying elements, such as diodes, and / or the voltage regulator, benefit from an inlet temperature very close to the ambient temperature and a larger air flow. The temperature of the current rectifying elements and / or the voltage regulator is then reduced so that the power of the rotating electrical machine can be increased since the temperature is reduced in the vicinity of this or these elements and / or of the voltage regulator. These elements and / or the regulator are more reliable.
    [0016] The temperature of the heat sink is also decreased, which is favorable for the reduction of Joule losses of the machine. As for an alternator of the type of FIG. 2, the air flow between the rear bearing and the positive dissipator is increased while benefiting from a temperature very close to the ambient temperature. When one or two negative diodes are hotter than the others one can achieve by means of one or more chimneys vents in specific areas. In general, the temperature difference between the positive and negative diodes is reduced. Thanks to the invention all air inlets at the hood are in an axial embodiment. The air inlet in the chimney being made in an embodiment axially; the outlet of the chimney being radial. According to other characteristics taken alone or in combination: the chimney or chimneys are generally of axial orientation or the chimneys are in two distinct parts, namely an external part and an internal part constituted by the cover; the chimney or chimneys comprise a portion which covers all or part of the radial portions of the hot air discharge slots which the bearing comprises; the chimney or chimneys belong to a baffle piece for directing the air away from the hood; The skirt constitutes the inner wall of the chimney; the skirt constitutes the top wall of the chimney; the top wall of the chimney is constituted by a local depression or a local elevation of the skirt; the internal wall of a chimney is constituted by a local depression or a local elevation of the skirt; the side walls of the chimney are stiffening walls 20 of the skirt and bottom of the hood; the bottom of the chimney is profiled to radially deflect the flow of air towards the inside of the hood. The invention will now be described in more detail and with reference to the accompanying drawings which illustrate one embodiment thereof by way of non-limiting example.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION In the figures, identical or similar elements will be assigned the same reference signs. For the general structure of an alternator constituting a rotating electrical machine, reference is made to FIGS. 1 and 2 and to the above-mentioned documents. Only the aspects related to the invention will be described below.
    [0017] In the first embodiment of FIGS. 3 to 120 is seen at the bottom and 121 the outer peripheral skirt of the cover 12 of generally cylindrical shape. This hood is made of moldable material in this embodiment. It is here in moldable plastic. Alternatively it is aluminum. The cover 12 encloses at least one electronic component 10, 10 ', 165 in the aforementioned manner. This cover is therefore a protective cover, which surrounds the electronic component 10, 10 ', 165 mounted in the volume delimited by the bottom 120 and the face 164 of the bearing 6. The bottom 120 is provided with at least one axial opening d air inlet, here a plurality of axial air inlet openings 155, 144, 30 as in Figures 1 and 2. For simplicity it has not shown the attachment points 270. It in 6 and 7. The skirt 121 surrounds the current rectification device 90 and has, at its free end open and adjacent to the end face of the bearing 6, at least one radial opening for the passage of 16. In this embodiment, the skirt 121 has a plurality of oblong radial openings 16 adjacent to the free end of the skirt as in FIG. 2. These openings 16 are closed and offset axially relative to each other. at the air inlet openings 144, 30, 155 and therefore with respect to the bottom 1 20. A strip of material of the skirt exists between the outer axial edge of the opening 16, furthest from the free end of the skirt 121, and the bottom 120. The hood 12 is in this embodiment reported snap fastening or screwing as in Figures 1 and 2 on the rear bearing 6 35 belonging to the housing of the alternator serving as a housing (Figure 5) to the stator 3 and the rotor 40 surrounded by the stator as above. In this embodiment, as in the other embodiments, the axial offset of the openings 16 with respect to the bottom 120 and the presence of the skirt 121 is taken advantage of. Thus, the hood 12 is equipped, according to one characteristic, with at least one cooling chimney 200 of at least one electronic component, in this case a negative diode 10 and / or a positive diode 10 ', which may alternatively be replaced by a MOSFET transistor or any other electronic rectifier element. current. The chimney 200 is axially oriented with respect to the axis XX of the alternator as shown in FIG. 5. This chimney is offset axially with respect to the air discharge slots 162 and here to the alternator housing. . The chimney is thus offset or offset axially relative to the outer periphery 20 of the rear bearing 6 having the slots 162. It is the same in the other embodiments. This chimney is in a characteristic adjacent to the skirt 121 of the cover and makes it possible to increase the flow of air between the face 164 of the bearing 6 and the positive dissipator 1 in the manner described hereinafter. Thus the diodes 10, 10 ', or any other electronic current rectifying element, benefit from a temperature very close to the ambient temperature and a larger flow of fresh air. It is the same as a variant of the voltage regulator. This chimney is delimited by a top wall 201, a bottom wall constituted by the skirt 121 of the cover 12, a bent end wall 202 and two side walls 203, 204 generally of axial orientation.
    [0018] The chimney 200 is thus adjacent to the skirt 121 and extends radially outwardly from the skirt 121. The walls 201 to 204 are in these one-piece FIGS. 5 with the hood 12 being integrally molded with the hood 12. , here in plastic. The chimney 200 constitutes a protrusion of axial orientation and of small thickness or height implanted at the outer periphery of the cover 12. The wall 202 constitutes a shaped deflector 10, which directs the air radially towards at least one opening 16 associated with a diode negative 10 and / or positive 10 '. This wall 202 extends for the most part above and outside at least one opening 16 implanted in the vicinity of a negative and / or positive diode to better cool it. The top wall 201 axially extends the wall 202 at the end of which it connects. This wall 201 extends axially to the vicinity of the bottom plane 120 of the cover so that the axial size of the cover is not increased. The wall 201 circumferentially has a circular sector shape. The free end of the wall 201 belongs to the inlet of the chimney 200, while the wall 202 constitutes the bottom of the chimney and the opening or openings 16, according to one characteristic, the outlet of the chimney. The opening 16 is delimited for the most part by the skirt 121. The opening 16 is blind at the level of the skirt 121 and is closed by the wall 202 less thick than the portion of the wall of the skirt of FIG. between the opening 16 and the free end of the skirt. It is therefore possible to increase the circumferential and / or axial size of the opening 16 by virtue of the presence of the chimney. More air can enter the hood.
    [0019] In FIG. 4, it can be seen that a slight radial offset exists between the free end of the wall 202 and the skirt 121 in order to obtain the opening 16, for example by means of a part called a knife which is retracted. during molding to obtain the opening 16. The shaped shape, here rounded, of the bent wall 202 reduces the pressure losses and to direct the air towards the inside of the cover 12. This form can be obtained by axial demolding.
    [0020] In Figure 5 we see the air flow, identified by the arrow F3, which passes through the chimney 200. This flow F3 is an additional axial flow; the flows F1 and F2 existing as in Figure 1. The flow F3 is according to a characteristic at the origin of axial orientation when it enters the chimney. This flow F3 is directed towards the face 164 of the bearing 6. The flows F2 and F1 are also axial at the origin. Thus the air, which circulates through the fan 22, is channeled through the chimney 200. The air enters axially 20 at the free end of the wall 201 and is then deflected radially by the wall 202 to pass through the opening radial 16 and cool the diode 10, 10 'concerned. The flow F3 then passes through the opening 18 and finally emerges through at least one slot 162. This increases the flow of air between the dissipators 164, 1. Thanks to this arrangement the air, which has been heated in particular by the bun 21, is not likely to enter again through the opening 16 largely masked by the wall 202 constituting the bottom of the chimney. The chimney 200 thus avoids a looping of the air of the type F 'of Figure 1 and the vortex phenomena. We reduce the pressure losses. This avoids recirculation of the air, which has been reheated, in the hood 12.
    [0021] The air passing through the chimney 200 is therefore cooler so that the diode 10 and / or 10 'is better cooled and is more reliable. This is all the more so that the air circulates with a minimum of pressure drops in the chimney, the wall 202 promoting the flow of air. The curvature of this wall depends on the applications. This arrangement makes it possible, in the aforementioned manner, to increase axially and / or circumferentially the opening 16 so as to bring more fresh air to the diodes 10, 10 'while avoiding a looping of hot air in from the slots 162. Note that the flow F3 meets in the hood the flow F2 before passing through the opening 18 air inlet 15 to enter the housing of the alternator, cool the bun 21 and out through the slots 162 without re-entering the opening 16 due to the presence of the chimney 200. In Figure 3 the chimney covers several openings 16 and is associated with several negative diodes 10 and 10 'positive; the front face 164 of the bearing 6 carrying six diodes 10 as in Figure 1. The chimney 200 also covers at least one visible phase output 166 in Figure 1 and 25 located adjacent each of a negative diode 10. The chimney 200 a, according to one feature, a circumferential length greater than its radial height to reduce the radial size. This chimney does not cover the skirt 161 of the rear bearing 6. It extends axially between the bottom 120 of the hood and the end face 164 of the bearing 6. This chimney is economically obtained by molding and makes it possible to retain all the constituents of the alternator, in particular the current rectifier device 90.
    [0022] In this FIG. 3 two chimneys 200 are provided. The chimneys 200 are generally diametrically opposed and circumferentially of the same length. Alternatively the two chimneys are circumferentially of different length. In Figure 3 there are actually two other chimneys 260 diametrically opposed, of circumferential length greater than that of the chimneys 200. The chimneys 200, 260 extend over 360 ° and thus perform a complete revolution. These chimneys 200, 260 are separated and attached to each other by the partitions 203, 204 of generally axial orientation. The voltage regulator is well cooled. The outer periphery of the cover therefore consists of chimneys adjacent to the skirt 121 constituting the inner wall of the chimneys 200, 260. As a variant, it is possible in FIG. 3 to retain only two chimneys 200 or 260. In the embodiment of FIG. 6 there are three chimneys 210, 220, 230 of axial orientation with circumferentially circular top wall shaped circular sector. The chimney 210 is here of circumferential length greater than that of the other chimneys. Of course, four or more chimneys and / or varying the circumferential length of the chimneys may be provided. Thus in the embodiment of Figure 7 there is provided a single chimney 240, which includes the three chimneys of Figure 6. This chimney extends over more than 180 °. The number of chimneys therefore depends on the applications and also in particular on the number of negative diodes which are hotter. Likewise, the thickness of the side walls 203, 204 depends on the applications.
    [0023] It can be seen from FIGS. 3, 6 and 7 that air intakes are created in specific zones depending in particular on the number of negative diodes 10, which are hotter.
    [0024] This is true also for the positive diodes 10 'since the ducted air flow F3 mixes with the flow F2 at the level of the positive dissipator 1; the flow F3 and F2 flowing between the positive dissipator 1 and negative 164. In practice is placed or the outputs 16 of the 10 chimneys at the hottest places, including the negative diodes and phase outputs. Of course, in some applications it is possible to plug at least some openings 16 implanted outside the chimney or chimneys. An additional chimney may be provided at the openings 155 and therefore the voltage regulator consisting of an electronic component. By means of the air duct or ducts, the air flow passing under the positive dissipator is increased and the temperature of the diodes 10, 10 'and / or the voltage regulator is reduced since it avoids the loopback phenomena. heated air, in particular by the bun 21, and leading to an increase in temperature. With the chimney (s) the temperature difference between the diodes 10, 10 'is reduced. Of course, as a variant, the negative dissipator may be constituted by a separate part of the front face 164 of the rear bearing 6 and the walls 201 to 204 may be related to the skirt 21 of the cover, for example by gluing or welding. We can reverse the structures. For example in Figure 3 the outer wall of the chimneys is alternatively constituted by the skirt 121 of the cover and the inner wall by an additional wall connected to the peripheral skirt by the side walls 203, 204. The chimney or chimneys are therefore in this adjacent to the skirt 121 being implanted inside the hood. Alternatively the chimney is adjacent to the skirt 121 being in two separate parts respectively external and internal. This embodiment makes it possible to easily obtain the openings 16 and to close off the axial ends of at least some slots. This also preserves the hood of the prior art, the skirt of which constitutes the internal wall of the chimney. Thus, in the embodiment of FIG. 8, the chimney 300 has walls 201, 202, as in FIGS. 3 to 7, but these walls are integral with an outer plate-shaped part 301 attached to the bearing rear 6 in this case using the tie rods 302 of the front bearing with the rear bearing 6 6 of the alternator. These tie rods 302 each traverse, in the abovementioned manner, an excess thickness 267 of the bearing 6 to be screwed into an excess thickness of the front bearing. The plate 301, equipped with the walls 201, 202, is in a characteristic that is distinct from the cover 12, the skirt 121 of which constitutes the internal wall of the chimney 300. The external part of the chimney is thus constituted by the plate 301 and the internal part. the chimney through the cover 12, more precisely by the skirt 121. The plate 301, through its walls 201 201, 202, at least partially covers the cover 12 and may be plastic or metal, for example aluminum based to better evacuate the heat. The plate 301 is in the form of an annular sector or a complete ring along the circumferential length of the chimney 200.
    [0025] In this embodiment the plate 301 descends sufficiently low to plug the axial end of at least one slot 162 affecting the front face of the rear bearing, that is to say the radial portion of a slot extending into a peripheral zone of the end face 164 constituting the bottom of the bearing 6, so that the chimney performs an additional function. The inner radius of the plate 301 is here less than the inner radius of the skirt.
    [0026] Alternatively the plate 301 is replaced by lugs integral with the wall 202. Advantageously, the material is present between the wall 202 and the lugs or the plate 301.
    [0027] In FIG. 9, the plate is seen at a different place than the thickenings 267. The plate is referenced at 303 because it descends radially even lower than in FIG. 8. More precisely, it descends sufficiently low to block the radial portion of the slot. 162 affecting the front face 164 of the rear bearing 6 and also to have an inner radius less than the outer radius of the positive dissipator and the outer radius of the connector 9. With this arrangement is obtained a better channelization of the F3 and F2 flows. Of course, the plate 301, 303 can be attached by snap-fastening to the rear bearing 6 by means of axial claw-hook tabs engaging with the lower edge of the radial portion of a slot 162 belonging to the 164. The plate may be configured to form, according to the embodiment of FIG. 10, a part 306 provided with an inclined deflector 304 directing the air away from the cover 12.
    [0028] More precisely, the part 306, equipped with the walls 201, 202 of the chimney 300, alternately presents, on the one hand, a flat portion 305 in the form of a flange at the level of the extra thicknesses 267 for fixing it to the rear bearing 6 and to on the other hand, an inclined portion 304 forming inclined deflector directing the air towards the free end of the skirt 161 of the bearing 6. Of course the material is present between the wall 201 and the parts 305, 306.
    [0029] The chimney 300 is therefore in Figures 8 to 10 in two parts, namely an outer portion, having the top walls 201 and curve 202, and an inner portion constituted by the skirt 121 of the cover 12 forming the inner wall of the chimney.
    [0030] The opening 16 is blind at the level of the skirt 121 and is closed by an insert 301, 303, 306 for attachment to the bearing 6 so that it is easier to obtain. In a first step the first external part is mounted, for example by fixing it on the rear bearing by snapping or with the aid of the tie rods 302, then in a second step the cover 12 is mounted for example by snapping and this the end of the assembly line, that is to say after the mounting of the voltage regulator and the current rectifier device 90. Thanks to these arrangements, the hood of FIGS. 3 to 7 is simplified and no changes are made to it. measurement, see one keeps, the cover of Figure 1. In addition the first outer portion of the chimney 30 and the cover may be of the same material or different material. The hood is thus in one embodiment of plastic material and the first part is made of plastic or metal, for example based on aluminum, to better evacuate the heat.
    [0031] This arrangement also promotes the formation of a metal cap, the first being in an embodiment obtained by molding being for example plastic or aluminum-based.
    [0032] The first outer part makes it possible to obtain aerodynamic shapes which perfectly match the contours of the rear bearing 6 and which make it possible to better channel the air as can be seen for example in FIG. 10. The inner radius of the first part can be decreased by aforementioned manner. The first part closes, in one embodiment, the radial portion of at least some slots 162 which further reduces the air looping phenomena. Of course, this two-part configuration also makes it possible to preserve or eliminate the side walls 203, 204 of the chimney 200. The walls 202, 201 completely cover the opening or openings 16 in FIGS. 3 to 10. More specifically, the walls 201, 202 have axially a length greater than the axial length of an opening 16. Of course, depending on the applications, it is possible to reduce the axial length of the wall 201 and therefore of the chimney. This is the case, for example, in FIG. 11. In this FIG. 11, the chimney 400 is in two parts as in FIGS. 8 to 10. The external part 401, 402 is in one piece with the bearing 6 and the internal part constituted by the The first part 401, 402 comprises a wall 401 of axial orientation, which is axially directed in the opposite direction to the fan 22 and the bun 21, that is to say towards the bottom 120 of the hood 12. .
    [0033] This wall 401 is circumferentially circular sector-shaped like the wall 201 and is connected to the face 164 by a section 402 of transverse orientation extending the face 164.
    [0034] The section 402 replaces the wall 202 of FIG. 3 and constitutes the bottom of the chimney 400. The first part 401, 402 is molded with the end face 164. The first part 401, 402 is of less thickness than the face 164.
    [0035] The wall 401 extends vertically above the opening 16 and here axially a length generally equal to the axial length of the opening 16. In a variant, the axial length of the wall 401 is smaller than that of the opening 16.
    [0036] For example, the axial length of the wall 401 is greater than at least 70% of the axial length of the opening 16. Of course, the desired shape may be given to the openings 16 and to the chimney or chimneys as can be seen in FIGS. 15. Similarly, the structures can be reversed in the aforementioned manner, the top wall of at least one chimney belonging to the skirt 121 of the hood, as can also be seen in these FIGS. 12 to 15. In FIG. three fixing points of the elastically deployable tab cover for snap-fitting on studs integral with the rear bearing as in WO 01/69762. In known manner the threaded portion of the stud enters the central opening of the point 270 to engage by its thread with the free end of the tongues. The position of the attachment points 270 depends on the applications. These points 270 comprise a sleeve 271 penetrating axially into the cap and projecting axially outside the bottom 120 of the cap (FIG. 13). This sleeve is internally endowed with the tabs 272. The sleeve stiffens the bottom 120. Also seen in this figure 13 at 280 a peripheral opening formed in a radial projection 5 281 of the cover for mounting the connector associated with the voltage regulator referenced 165 to FIG. 2. The projection 281 has a top wall 285 (FIG. 13) and (FIG. 12) two side walls 286, 287. The reference 290 denotes an opening for the B + terminal bearing the reference 500 in FIG. of the aperture 290 depends on the size of the terminal B +. The central opening 298 is for the passage of the brush holder of the alternator and is configured accordingly. The free end of the skirt 121 of the cover has a change in diameter for forming a shouldered annular flange 268. The flange 268, of greater diameter than that of the skirt 121, has an axially oriented portion, of which the inner periphery is intended to cooperate intimately with the outer periphery of the annular centering allowance 168 of FIG. 2. The flange 268 connects to the skirt 121 in favor of a transverse shoulder 269 intended to bear against the front face delimiting the extra thickness 168 implanted below the slots 162 in the vicinity thereof. The air can therefore not penetrate the hood at the flange 268. According to one characteristic, as can be seen in FIGS. 12 and 13, the projection 281 has an internal partition of transverse orientation 282 close to the free end of The skirt 121. In this embodiment, unlike the embodiment of FIG. 1, the connector associated with the voltage regulator is mounted radially. The opening 280 affects the top wall 285 of the projection 281 and is extended by a T-shaped cutout 283 perpendicular to the opening 280. The transverse base 5 of the T constitutes a cutout that affects the bottom 120 of the cover. The horizontal portion of the T affects the projection 281 and is delimited by the side edges 286, 287 of the projection 281. The cutout 283 in the bottom 120 takes into account the shape of the connector (not visible). The cut 283 10 and the opening 280 allow to obtain the partition 282 by axial demolding. The partition 282 here has a rectangular shape, a small space existing between the partition 282 and the side edges 286, 287 of the projection 281 to obtain the partition 282 by axial demolding. The partition 282 is integral with the top wall 285 of the projection interrupted by the opening 280 as visible in FIG. 13. The height of the partition 282 is a function of the height of the horizontal portion of the cutout 283. flange 268 is interrupted at the projection 281 but this is compensated by the presence of the partition 282, which according to one characteristic, prevents air from passing axially. This partition prevents penetration into the air hood from the radial portion of the slots 162 vis-à-vis. Recirculation of the hot air from the rear bearing, in particular slots 162 thereof, is prevented so that the voltage regulator is protected. The flange 268 is also interrupted at the opening 290. The skirt 121 has at this location a flat 284 for reducing the bulk. This flat extends to the bottom 120 of the hood and stops at a short distance from the flange 268.
    [0037] In this embodiment there are three chimneys 261, 262, 263 adjacent to the skirt 121. More precisely the top wall of each chimney is adjacent to the skirt 121, or merged with the skirt with respect to the chimney 263. The chimneys s at least the majority of them extend into the interior of the skirt 121. The chimneys 261 and 262 are generally of the same shape and are located at the six outputs of the windings of the phases of the stator winding. The chimney 263 is of oblong shape and is circumferentially longer than the chimneys 261, 262 located on either side of the chimney 263. According to one characteristic, the top wall of the chimney 263 is constituted by the skirt 121 of the hood. which does not increase the radial size of the hood 12. The chimney 263 is of reduced width at the attachment point 270 adjacent the chimney 263 (Figure 12). This chimney 263 is delimited by an internal wall 363 coming from the bottom 120 of the hood and constituted by a plurality of rectilinear sections as shown in FIG. 12 so as not to interfere with the point 270 and to increase the circumferential width of the slot 263. chimney 263 is also delimited by two axially oriented lateral walls 364, 365, which are connected to the wall 363 and the skirt 121. The wall 365, the closest to the point 270, is less than the wall 364. These walls 364, 365 are connected to the bottom 120 and extend axially inside the hood. The walls 364, 365 stiffen the skirt 121 and the bottom 120 of the hood. The bottom 366 of the chimney 263 forms a bridge between the walls 364, 365. This bottom 366 stiffens the skirt 121 and 35 is adjacent to the flange 268. It has a profiled shape to deflect the air towards the inside of the hood 12. The inner periphery of the bottom 366 is constituted by a plurality of rectilinear sections of dimension adapted to those of the inner wall 363 of the chimney 263 in order to obtain the bottom 363 by axial demolding. The air outlet 360 (FIG. 13) for the flow F3 passing through the chimney 263 is therefore circumferentially large. This size is significantly greater than that of the openings 16 of FIG.
    [0038] Each chimney 261, 262 is associated with three phase winding outputs; the alternator having a six-legged connector as mentioned above. These outputs are each mounted in a housing 370 of axial orientation.
    [0039] There are thus two groups of three housings 370 located on either side of the chimney 263. These housings 370 each have a bottom 368 of circular section forming an external protuberance relative to the bottom 120 of the hood as shown in FIGS. and 15. The top wall of these housings 370 is constituted by the skirt 121 of the cover 12. This top wall is provided with a blind slot 369 of axial orientation better visible in Figure 14. The slot is open at the bottom 368 of the housing 370 and closed at a distance from the edge 268. The slot 369 is an evacuation slot including water. The housing 370 is delimited by an inner wall 371 projecting axially from the bottom 120 of the cover 12. The wall 371 extends inside the cover 12 over a short axial length relative to the axial length of the the skirt 121. This wall 371 stiffens the bottom 120 of the hood. The inner wall 371 is in an embodiment common to the three housings 370 of the chimney 262 as visible in dashed lines in FIG. 12. This wall 371 extends underneath the chimney 262 in a tortuous manner up to the vicinity of the point 270 the top of Figure 12. The wall 371 is common to two of the housing of the chimney 261 because of the presence of the attachment point 270 adjacent to one of the funds 368 (Figure 12). The inner wall 371 therefore extends circumferentially between at least two bottoms 368 and guides the air. It extends below the relevant chimney on a shorter axial length than this one. The housings 370 are obtained by axial demolding of the inside of the cover 12, that is to say in the direction of the free end of the skirt, unlike the chimneys 261 to 263, which are obtained by axial demolding in the opposite direction that is to say towards the outside of the hood 12. The chimneys 261, 262 are each delimited by an external wall 380 covering the three slots 369 and the three housings 370. The wall 380 extends from the bottom 120 to the top in the vicinity of the edge 268 of the skirt. The wall 380 is projecting radially from the skirt 121, but on a small height as can be seen in FIG. 12. This outer wall 380 here consists of a local elevation of the skirt 121. Each chimney 261, 262 also comprises two ducts. 381 of axial orientation each having an outlet 160 inside the cover 12 as best seen in Figures 13 to 15. The conduits stiffen the skirt 121 and the bottom 120 of the cover 12. The outputs 160 are axially offset in the direction the flange 268, and therefore the free end of the skirt 121, relative to the wall 371. The ducts 381 extend outside the wall 371 and between two housings 370. The side walls 382, 383 (Figure 13) ducts are the side walls of two consecutive housing 370 between which the conduit 381 is interposed. The inner wall 384 of the duct 381 extends from the bottom 120 of the cover 12 to the edge of the opening 160 with a radial offset of the edges of the opening 160 and the wall 384 required by the presence of a part mold, called knife to obtain the opening 160 during demolding.
    [0040] The end 386 (FIG. 15) of the duct constitutes the bottom of the duct 381. The extreme side walls 382, 383 of the two ducts go up to the wall 380 constituting a local elevation of the skirt 121.
    [0041] Of course, in a variant, each duct has a distinct top wall between two consecutive housings 370. The duct section is generally rectangular. The internal walls of the chimneys 261 to 263 all extend axially inside the hood and stiffen the hood. It will be noted that the side walls 382, 383 of the ducts 381, as well as the side walls 384, 385 of the chimney 263, are connected to the bottom 120 of the cap 12 and 25 at the inner periphery of the skirt 121. The internal walls of the ducts 381 and the chimney 263 are connected to the bottom 120 of the hood. These side and internal walls stiffen the bottom of the hood and the skirt of the hood. The inner face of the bottom 120 of the cover is ribbed, in particular at the level of the strips of material between the openings 144, 30 to increase the mechanical strength of the cover. A ribbed frame is provided at openings 155. Similarly, the edge of aperture 298 is ribbed. These ribs of the inner face of the bottom 120 are visible in Figures 13 to 15 and are not referenced for clarity. It will be appreciated that the cover 12, here made of plastic material, is easily obtained by axial demolding. This hood is compact and is very robust thanks in particular to the walls of the chimneys 261 to 263, the walls 371 and the ribs to reduce the amount of material of the hood and therefore the cost thereof. It will be appreciated that the wall 380 covers the slots 369 of the housings and protects them. In FIG. 12 the chimneys 261, 262 are two-duct chimneys 381. Of course, the number of ducts 381 depends on the number of windings and the number of phases of the stator. Thus, in a variant, eight winding outputs are provided; the number of phases can be equal to four or eight. In this case it is possible to provide two chimneys with four winding outputs associated with three ducts 381. Three sets of two winding outputs and thus three chimneys with two housings 370 separated by a duct 381 can be provided. modify the chimneys of Figure 12 so that they have only two ducts for three slotted housing 369 as visible in Figure 16. In this case the slots 369 are in the open air and each duct has its own wall the top 49 is formed by a local elevation of the skirt 121. The number of total chimneys is then equal to five five namely the chimney 263 and the four ducts 381. It follows from the foregoing that thanks to the invention can be implemented chimneys so that they open by their output 160 to the hottest places to better cool the electronic components.
    [0042] Advantageously, the ends 386 of the ducts 381, the bottom 366 of the chimney 263 and the partition 282 are in the same transverse plane. Alternatively, the bottoms 366, the ends 386 and the partition 282 arranged in the same plane can be interconnected by a strip of material to form a flange of transverse orientation replacing the flange 268. The flange can be fixed on the thickenings 267. with the aid of the tie rods 302 or by snap-fastening so that the fastening points 270 can be removed. Of course, alternatively, the fastening points 270 can be preserved. As a variant, the flange is not circularly continuous.
    [0043] The flange or the flange portion at least partially covers the radial ends of the slots as in FIGS. 8 to 10. It will be noted that in this case the ends 366, the partition 282 and the bottoms 366 cover all or part of the ends. Of course, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described. The bonnet skirt is alternatively provided with latching claw tabs for engaging the edge of the radial portion of a slot 162; snap-fastening is provided as described, for example, in US 5,315,195 to which we will refer. It will be appreciated that the shape of the radial portions of the slots 162 of US 5,315,195 also makes it possible to snap-fit the parts 303 and 306 of FIGS. 9 and 10. The points 270 are therefore not mandatory. Various combinations can be made.
    [0044] For example, the chimney 220 or 230 of FIG. 6 can be replaced by a chimney 400 of FIG. 11. This chimney 400, or the external part of the chimney 300, can equip an alternator in which, in the aforementioned manner, the hood is in one piece with the rear bearing. One of the chimneys 200 of FIG. 3, or the chimney 210 of FIG. 6, can be replaced by a chimney 300 of FIG. 9 or 10. The three types of chimneys can be provided in FIG. add an additional chimney at the level of the voltage regulator or, for example, in FIG. 3 Depending on the temperature of the components inside the hood, it is possible to provide a single chimney and a single opening 16, 160 radial of the air outlet of the chimney to cool the hottest component. The cooling chimney (s) can be radially offset inwards or outwards. For example, in the embodiment of FIGS. 12 to 16, the top and bottom walls of the chimneys may be displaced outwards so that the internal walls of the chimneys are constituted by a local depression or a local elevation of the skirt 121. see the skirt 121 herself. In FIGS. 12 and 16, the top walls 380, 480 respectively of the chimneys 261, 262 and the ducts 381 are formed by a local elevation of the skirt 121. As a variant, an inward shift can be made so that the walls peaks 380, 480 are constituted by a local depression of the skirt 121 or the skirt itself. The outward shift is more important in such a way that in one embodiment the chimney may project radially from the face 164 while being offset or offset axially from the outer periphery of the bearing 6. slotted 162.
    [0045] It is also possible to vary the diameter of the skirt with respect to the external diameter of the face 164 of the bearing 6. This diameter of the skirt may therefore be less than, equal to, or greater than the external diameter of the face 164.
    [0046] Of course for the reasons of demolding can be provided remains at the walls of a cooling chimney. The inlet of the chimney or chimneys is alternatively flared for better air intake. The bottoms 366 and 402 of the ducts 381 and of the chimney 400 can also be profiled so as to deflect the air radially as in the other figures. You can alternatively incline the chimney or chimneys. Thus, the top wall of the chimney is in an inclined embodiment; for example frustoconical shape. The chimney may be inclined relative to the axial direction. In the embodiments described above and shown in the figures, the invention is applied to an alternator rear bearing, on which is mounted the rectifier 90 which constitutes the hottest part of the alternator. In a variant, the straightening device can be carried by the front bearing of the alternator so that the invention also applies to the front bearing of an alternator. The invention also applies to the case of an alternator in which one of the bearings is cooled by water, and the other by air. The housing of the alternator may comprise more than two parts, for example three parts, namely a front bearing, a rear bearing and an intermediate portion located between the two bearings and fixed thereto, for example by screwing. The invention also applies to rotating electrical machines generally provided with a current converter, be it a current rectifying device, called a rectifier bridge, as in the embodiments presented above. top, or a device type chopper or inverter, which corresponds for example to the case of an alternator-starter which also applies the invention. The alternator-starter inverter WO 01/69762 is alternatively integrated in a hood according to the invention. Of course, as can be seen in FIG. 2 of this document WO 01/69762, the protective cover can surround electronic components in the form of a voltage regulator, as well as the sensor-holder of the position of the rotor; the current rectifying elements being located outside the bearing-cover assembly. At least one chimney may open at the level of the voltage regulator and at least one other at the sensor holder support of the rotor position sensors to further cool the sensors. The diodes 10, 10 'constituting current rectifying elements may be replaced by MOSFET or other type of transistor.
    [0047] The negative dissipator can be distinct from the front face of the rear bearing or before being fixed on it because the chimneys can bring the air flow to the desired location. This negative dissipator can be finned.
    [0048] The positive dissipator 1 may have another shape and consist for example of a perforated plate for passage of one or more axial air flows. Advantageously fins are provided on this plate to better evacuate the heat. The fins 4 are therefore not necessarily implanted at the inner periphery of the positive dissipator 1. The invention is thus applicable to a chip and mezzanine alternator, of the type described in document WO 2004/040738. may retain the axial air inlet openings 155, 144, 30 and not change the arrangement of the electronic components such as the current rectifier 90 so that the standard type elements are retained. Thanks to the invention, it is possible to retain the rotor, the wound stator, the fan (s) and the other components of the rotating electrical machine. Thus this machine is alternatively equipped with a rear fan 22 composed of at least two superimposed fans as described for example in the document FR 2 855 672. Permanent magnets can be mounted between the teeth of the pole wheels of the claw rotor . The number of phases of the rotating electrical machine may be arbitrary. Of course we can not change the air discharge slots 162 and the air inlet openings 18 of the front and rear bearings because the chimney or stacks are offset axially relative to the skirts of the bearings. The cooling of the internal ventilation electrical machine is thus not modified at the slots 162 and the radial space at the skirts of the bearings is not increased. One or more cooling chimneys are created.
    [0049] The outlet of the chimney constituting the radial opening of the air passage may belong to the skirt and be closed, thus being entirely delimited by the skirt or alternatively be blind, being made in the skirt and closed by a piece of the skirt. type of that of Figures 8 to 10. The output of the chimney can be located inside the skirt as in Figures 12 to 16. All this depends on the applications.
    [0050] The solution according to the invention makes it possible to realize many embodiments, is economical and makes it possible to increase the power and the reliability of the rotating electrical machine thanks to a better cooling of the electronic component (s) and to the elimination of the phenomena of recirculation of hot air.
