Attached Figure Description

[0018] The components are: 1. Housing; 2. Rotor assembly; 3. Stator core; 4. Support frame; 5. Cavity; 6. End cap; 7. Wire hole; 8. Through cavity; 9. First through hole; 10. Second through hole; 11. First extension ring; 12. Second extension ring; 13. First annular protrusion; 14. Frame retaining ring; 15. Coil frame. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0020] Example 1: See Figure 1 As shown, a high-precision angular displacement sensor that is easy to disassemble and maintain includes a housing 1, a rotor assembly 2, a stator core 3, and a coil assembly installed inside the housing. A support frame 4 is also installed inside the housing. The support frame is located outside the rotor assembly and is coaxially arranged with the rotor assembly. The stator core and the coil assembly are installed on the outer surface of the support frame, so that the stator core and the coil assembly are coaxially arranged with the rotor assembly.

[0021] In this embodiment, the support frame and rotor assembly are coaxially arranged, and the stator core and coil assembly are installed on the outside of the support frame. This further ensures the coaxiality of the stator core and coil assembly with the rotor assembly, thereby improving the detection accuracy of the angular displacement sensor. Simultaneously, by directly installing the stator core on the outer surface of the support frame, if the stator core is damaged and requires repair, it can be directly removed from the support frame for repair or replacement, effectively improving the convenience of repair and replacement and reducing maintenance costs. Moreover, compared to the previous method of bonding the stator core to the inner wall of the housing, installation is more convenient and faster. Furthermore, the previous bonding method often resulted in uneven adhesive thickness, leading to insufficient coaxiality between the stator core and rotor assembly. Therefore, in this embodiment, direct installation on the outside of the support frame ensures coaxiality and improves the accuracy of the angular displacement sensor.

[0022] Meanwhile, compared with the previous method of installing the stator core on the inner wall of the housing and the coil assembly directly on the outside of the rotor assembly, this method can ensure that the stator core and coil assembly are installed in place, avoiding the impact of improper installation in the past (poor product accuracy, poor detection accuracy, or easy damage).

[0023] See Figure 1 As shown, a gap is provided between the outer wall of the stator core and the outer wall of the coil assembly and the inner wall of the housing. In this embodiment, during assembly, the support frame and the rotor assembly do not interfere with each other and do not affect their installation. At the same time, the gap between the outer wall of the stator core and the outer wall of the coil assembly and the inner wall of the housing allows for easy disassembly and maintenance. The support frame can be directly removed from the housing, or the coil assembly and stator core can be directly removed from the support frame without being restricted by the housing.

[0024] See Figure 1 As shown, the housing is a hollow structure with an open rear end. A cavity 5 is provided inside the housing, and the rear end of the cavity is connected to the rear end of the housing. An end cap 6 is installed at the rear end of the housing, closing the rear end of the cavity. The middle part of the rotor assembly, the stator core, the coil assembly, and the support frame are installed within the cavity. The end cap is used to seal the cavity of the housing, limiting the movement of the rotor assembly, support frame, stator core, and coil assembly inside the housing. The end cap also has a wire hole 7 through which the wire connects to the coil assembly.

[0025] See Figure 1As shown, the support frame is a ring structure, and a through cavity 8 is provided in the middle of the support frame and coaxially arranged with the support frame. The rotor assembly is inserted into the through cavity in the middle and is coaxially arranged with the through cavity. There is a gap between the rotor assembly and the inner wall of the through cavity.

[0026] The front end of the housing has a first through hole 9 at its center, and the front end of the rotor assembly passes through the first through hole and is disposed outside the front end of the housing; the end cap has a second through hole 10 in its middle, and the rear end of the rotor assembly is installed in the second through hole, and the first through hole and the second through hole are coaxially arranged.

[0027] The front wall of the cavity is provided with a first extension ring 11 extending toward the rear end of the cavity. The first extension ring is disposed outside the first through hole and is coaxially disposed with the first through hole. The front end of the end cap is provided with a second extension ring 12. The second extension ring is disposed outside the second through hole and is coaxially disposed with the second through hole. The two ends of the support frame are respectively sleeved on the first extension ring and the second extension ring. The inner wall of the front end of the cavity is tightly fitted with the outer wall of the first extension ring, and the inner wall of the rear end of the cavity is tightly fitted with the outer wall of the second extension ring.

[0028] In this embodiment, the first and second through holes serve as bearing mounting holes. Bearings are located at both ends of the rotor assembly, and are installed in the corresponding first and second through holes. This allows the rotor in the middle of the rotor assembly to rotate through the bearings, housing, and end cap. The first and second extension rings are coaxially arranged with the corresponding first and second through holes, meaning they are coaxial with the bearings in the rotor assembly. This ensures that the support frame, after installation, is coaxial with the rotor assembly, guaranteeing the accuracy and detection precision of the angular position sensor. During support frame installation, the front end of the support frame is inserted into the cavity of the housing, with the cavity directly aligned with the first extension ring, which is then fitted onto it. When the end cap is installed, the second extension ring is inserted into the cavity, and the end cap abuts against the rear end of the support frame. The front inner wall of the cavity abuts against the rear end of the support frame. The first and second extension rings fit tightly with the support frame, ensuring a secure and stable installation without any wobbling.

[0029] See Figure 1As shown, a first annular protrusion 13 is provided on the front outer surface of the support frame. The first annular protrusion is integral with the support frame. The front end of the stator core abuts against the rear end face of the first annular protrusion. The coil assembly is disposed at the rear end of the stator core, and the front end face of the coil assembly abuts against the rear end face of the stator core. A frame retaining ring 14 is also provided on the rear outer surface of the support frame, and the front end face of the frame retaining ring abuts against the rear end face of the coil assembly.

[0030] In this embodiment, the first annular protrusion and the frame retaining ring can restrict the degree of freedom of movement of the stator core and coil assembly along the axis of the support frame. During installation, the stator core is first inserted into the rear end of the support frame. After the front end of the stator core contacts the first annular protrusion, the coil assembly is then placed on the support frame, and the frame retaining ring is installed on the support frame to limit the position of the stator core and coil assembly.

[0031] The retaining ring is bonded to the outer surface of the supporting frame. This prevents the retaining ring from moving backward along the supporting frame, providing a stable limiting function. For disassembly, simply heat the retaining ring with a heat gun; the bonded area will then loosen, allowing for removal.

[0032] The coil assembly includes a coil frame 15 and a coil (not shown in the coil diagram) wound around the outside of the coil frame. The coil frame is sleeved on the outer surface of the support frame. The front end face of the coil frame abuts against the rear end face of the stator core, and the frame retaining ring abuts against the rear end face of the coil frame.

[0033] In conventional designs, the coil bobbin is directly mounted outside the rotor assembly. However, the fit between the two sets is often not tight enough, causing the coil bobbin to wobble on the rotor assembly. This leads to collisions and wear, affecting both lifespan and accuracy. In this embodiment, the coil bobbin is directly fitted over the support frame and is positioned to prevent wobble in the coil assembly. Simultaneously, the stator core and the inner wall of the coil bobbin are in contact or have a tight fit, ensuring no relative rotation or wobble during use and guaranteeing accuracy.

[0034] The support frame is a one-piece molded structure. This provides good structural strength and facilitates manufacturing.
