DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-Figure 4 A brush assembly shown includes a brush holder 1, which is used to connect the brush to other parts of the motor. A brush holder 2 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the brush holder 1. The brush holder 2 is used to ensure that the brush has an accurate position on the commutator. The brush holder 2 is an L-shaped structure. A brush box 5 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the brush holder 2. The brush box 5 is used to support the brush.

[0024] It should be noted that the commutator is a common motor component in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0025] Furthermore, a brush body 3 is movably provided on the brush box 5. The brush body 3 is a brush assembly commonly used in the prior art for conducting current, and is usually made of graphite, and has good electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and lubricity, which will not be described in detail here.

[0026] An adjustment mechanism is arranged above the brush holder 1, and the adjustment mechanism includes a support rod 4, which is used to cooperate with a limiting rod 8 to limit the torsion spring 6. The support rod 4 is fixedly mounted on the brush holder 2, and a limiting rod 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the support rod 4. A torsion spring 6 is movably sleeved on the limiting rod 8, and a first connecting rod 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the torsion spring 6, and a mounting seat 7 is hinged on the end of the first connecting rod 12 away from the torsion spring 6.

[0027] Considering that the brush body 3 will gradually wear out after long-term use and needs to be replaced regularly, and the brush body 3 is inconvenient to install and disassemble on the brush box 5, which is not conducive to replacing the worn brush body 3, therefore, an electrode rod 11 is movably inserted into the mounting seat 7, and the electrode rod 11 is used to conduct current to the brush body 3 and fix the brush body 3. Two electrode rods 11 are provided, and the two electrode rods 11 are distributed in a mirror image, and the brush body 3 is fixedly mounted on the mounting seat 7 through the electrode rod 11.

[0028] A fixing plate 10 is provided on one end of the electrode rod 11 close to the torsion spring 6. The fixing plate 10 is used to fix the electrode rod 11 to prevent the brush body 3 from being separated from the electrode rod 11 during operation. The two electrode rods 11 are fixedly mounted on the mounting seat 7 through the fixing plate 10. A brush braid 14 is fixedly connected to one end of the electrode rod 11 away from the fixing plate 10. The brush braid 14 is used to transfer external current to the brush body 3.

[0029] When the worn brush body 3 needs to be replaced, the fixing plate 10 is separated from the electrode rod 11, and the electrode rod 11 is pulled out from the mounting seat 7, so that the brush body 3 is separated from the mounting seat 7, and the brush body 3 is taken out from the brush box 5, thereby realizing the disassembly and assembly of the worn brush body 3, which is convenient for subsequent replacement.

[0030] Furthermore, a terminal 15 is fixedly connected to one end of the brush braid 14 away from the electrode rod 11 . The terminal 15 is used to connect an external current connector to the brush braid 14 . The terminal 15 is fixedly mounted on the brush holder 2 .

[0031] It should be noted that the current connector is a common component in the prior art for supplying power to the motor, and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] Considering that the position of the brush body 3 on the brush box 5 is fixed and cannot adapt to commutators of different sizes, resulting in loose fit and affecting the normal operation of the equipment, a second connecting rod 13 is fixedly connected to the other end of the torsion spring 6 .

[0033] Furthermore, a slot 9 is provided at the top of the support rod 4, and the second connecting rod 13 is movably installed in the slot 9. There are a plurality of slots 9, and the plurality of slots 9 are distributed in a circle.

[0034] During specific operation, by rotating the torsion spring 6, the first connecting rod 12 drives the brush body 3 to slide in the brush box 5. When the brush body 3 fits with the commutator, the second connecting rod 13 is inserted into the slot 9 to fix the torsion spring 6, thereby adjusting the position of the brush body 3 so that the brush body 3 fits with the commutator to ensure the working effect.

[0035] It should be noted that in actual use, due to the large number of types of motors, there are various specifications of the brush body 3 and the commutator. In order to make the commutator match more types of brush bodies 3, an adjustable torsion spring 6 is provided. When the torsion spring 6 is inserted into the corresponding slot 9, the position of the brush body 3 can be adjusted within a certain range, so that the brush body 3 is fully fitted with the commutator surface, which is convenient and practical.

[0036] The utility model also discloses a brush which is used in a brush assembly. The brush body 3 is in a T-shaped structure. One end of the brush body 3 extending into the brush box 5 is provided with a round hole for inserting an electrode rod 11. The brush body 3 is used in conjunction with the brush assembly, which is convenient for replacement and adjustment and has a wider range of applications.
