DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0034] With reference to Figures 1 to 14 According to the embodiment of the present application, a plastic-encapsulated motor is provided, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the motor rotor assembly 105, the plastic encapsulation stator assembly 106 sleeved on the motor rotor assembly 105, and the first metal end cover 1 assembled to one end of the plastic encapsulation stator assembly 106 are shown, wherein the motor rotor assembly comprises a rotating shaft 101, a rotor core assembly sleeved on the rotating shaft 101, and front and rear bearings 103 and 104 at two ends of the rotor core assembly, the plastic encapsulation stator assembly 106 comprises a second metal end cover 21, a stator core 22, and upper and lower insulating frames 23 and 24 respectively assembled to two ends of the stator core 22, the first and second metal end covers 1 and 21 are respectively provided with bearing chambers to respectively accommodate the front and rear bearings 103 and 104, and the first and second conductive members 3 and 4 are provided, one end of the first conductive member 3 is electrically connected to the second metal end cover 21, the other end is clamped between the upper insulating frame 23 and the stator core 22, one end of the second conductive member 4 is fixed to the outer circumferential wall of the lower insulating frame 24 and is electrically connected to the first metal end cover 1, and the other end is electrically connected to the stator core 22. In the technical scheme, the rotating shaft 101, the front bearing 103, the second metal end cover 21, the first conductive member 3, the stator core 22, the second conductive member 4, the first metal end cover 1, and the rear bearing 104 of the plastic encapsulation motor form a loop through the first and second conductive members 3 and 4, effectively preventing electrical corrosion caused by shaft voltage, and the structure is plastic encapsulated in the injection molding shell 100, does not contact the complex external environment, has no risk of aging and falling off, and can greatly improve the reliability and stability of electrical connection.
[0035] In some embodiments, the first conductive member 3 comprises a sleeving portion 31 and a first embedding portion 32, the second metal end cover 21 is provided with a hook structure (not labeled in the figure), the sleeving portion 31 comprises a large-size frame 311 and a small-size frame 312, the large-size frame 311 communicates with the small-size frame 312, the first embedding portion 32 is located on the side of the large-size frame 311 away from the small-size frame 312, the inner hole size of the large-size frame 311 is not less than the maximum outer edge size of the hook structure, the inner hole size of the small-size frame 312 is less than the maximum outer edge size of the hook structure, and the first embedding portion 32 is in contact with the stator core 22. In this way, the first conductive member 3 and the second metal end cover 21 can be conveniently and reliably connected. See Figure 8 As shown, the large-size frame 311 and the small-size frame 312 form a convex shape, the hook structure comprises first and second hook bodies 211 and 212, the hook portions of the first and second hook bodies 211 and 212 are arranged opposite to each other, and the small-size frame 312 is sleeved in the hook portion openings. In the specific assembly and connection, first, the large-size frame 311 is aligned with the hook structure in the axial direction of the second metal end cover 21. Since the inner hole size of the large-size frame 311 is not less than the maximum outer edge size of the hook structure, the sleeving portion 31 can be easily sleeved on the hook structure, as shown in Figure 4As shown, at this time, the first embedding portion 32 is pulled radially outward, and the small-sized frame 312 moves toward the hook structure. The small-sized frame 312 is finally engaged with the hook openings of the first hook body 211 and the second hook body 212, thereby achieving the engagement of the two. Figure 8 As shown, the second metal end cover 21 includes a positioning flange, and the hook structure is located on the side of the positioning flange away from the stator core 22 and at the edge of the positioning flange, making the electrical connection structure here more compact.
[0036] See also Figure 9 As shown, an embedding hole 231 is constructed on the upper insulating frame 23, and the embedding hole 231 extends through the axial direction of the upper insulating frame 23. A radial groove 232 is constructed on the wall of the upper insulating frame 23 that matches one end of the stator core 22. The first embedding portion 32 includes an axial segment 321 that is embedded and matched with the embedding hole 231 and a radial segment 322 located in the radial groove 232, and the thickness of the radial segment 322 is greater than the groove depth of the radial groove 232, so that the radial segment 322 is more reliably connected to the end face of the stator core 22. After the first conductive member 3 is positioned by the upper insulating frame 23, it forms an electrical connection with the stator core 22, and the connection is more reliable, and the first conductive member 3 is not easy to fall off.
[0037] In a specific embodiment, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the convex-shaped sleeve portion 31, the inner hole dimensions of the large frame are AxB, the inner hole dimensions of the small frame are CxD, and the thickness of the sleeve portion 31 is T. The outer edge dimensions of the hook structure of the second metal end cap 21 are axb, the length and width at the base of the hook opening are cxd, and the height of the hook opening is t. AxB is slightly greater than axb, CxD is slightly greater than cxd, and T = t, ensuring effective contact and conduction. The shallow groove at the bottom of the upper insulating frame 23, namely the aforementioned radial groove 232, is less than T in depth. Therefore, when the first conductive member 3 is installed on the upper insulating frame 23, it protrudes from the frame plane. When the upper insulating frame 23 is installed on the stator core 22, the radial segment 322 contacts and conducts with the stator core 22.
[0038] See also Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, the second conductive member 4 comprises a plug-in portion 41 and a second embedding portion 42, the outer circumferential wall of the lower insulating skeleton 24 has a plug-in structure (not labeled in the figure), the plug-in portion 41 is plugged into the plug-in structure along the axial direction of the lower insulating skeleton 24, and the plug-in portion 41 has a conducting body 413 protruding from the radial outer side of the plug-in structure after being plugged into the plug-in structure, and the second embedding portion 42 is in contact with the stator core 22. Thus, when the first metal end cover 1 is assembled with the injection-molded shell 100 after injection molding, the inner circle of the first metal end cover 1 will be in contact with the conducting body 413 to form a connection. In this technical solution, the second conductive member 4 realizes the electrical connection between the stator core 22 and the first metal end cover 1, and the structure is simple and reliable. Figure 13 As shown, the outer side of the conducting body 413 is a circular arc surface with a radius R, and at this time, the inner circle radius of the first metal end cover 1 is R, and the outer diameter of the injection-molded shell 100 is also R, so as to ensure that the outer side of the conducting body 413 is exposed after the stator is injection molded.
[0039] In some embodiments, the plug-in structure comprises a third hook body 241 and a fourth hook body 242, the hook openings of the third hook body 241 and the fourth hook body 242 are arranged opposite to each other, the plug-in portion 41 has a first plug-in body 411 matching the hook opening of the third hook body 241, a second plug-in body 412 matching the hook opening of the fourth hook body 242, and the conducting body 413 is connected between the first plug-in body 411 and the second plug-in body 412. In a specific embodiment, the first plug-in body 411, the conducting body 413, and the second plug-in body 412 form a structure with a generally broken cross-section in the shape of a U, which ensures that the second conductive member 4 can be reliably connected to the lower insulating skeleton 24. The plug-in structure further comprises a protruding positioning body 243 between the third hook body 241 and the fourth hook body 242, and the conducting body 413 is plugged into the outer side of the protruding positioning body 243. Thus, the connection reliability between the second conductive member 4 and the lower insulating skeleton 24 can be improved.
[0040] The second embedding portion 42 is provided with a limiting arm 43 at a position close to the plug-in portion 41, and the lower insulating skeleton 24 has a limiting groove 244, when the second conductive member 4 is plugged into the plug-in structure, the end of the limiting arm 43 is in the limiting groove 244, and the extension direction of the limiting arm 43 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the second embedding portion 42, thereby realizing the positioning of the axial position of the second conductive member 4. In a specific embodiment, the axial thickness of the limiting arm 43 is not less than the groove depth of the limiting groove 244, so that the limiting arm 43 can protrude from the lower insulating skeleton 24 after assembly.
[0041] The outer circumferential wall of the stator core 22 has a groove 221 extending along the axial direction thereof, and the second embedding portion 42 is long strip-shaped and is inserted into the groove 221 along the axial direction of the stator core 22 to ensure reliable contact between the second embedding portion 42 and the stator core 22. The second embedding portion 42 is provided with a spot welding hole 421, and the second embedding portion 42 is spot-welded with the stator core 22 through the spot welding hole 421. In order to cope with the situation that a large shaft voltage is generated by a high-power motor, the spot welding effectively connects the several-shaped conductive contact pieces and the stator core, thereby ensuring that the anti-electric corrosion does not fail.
[0042] In some embodiments, the outer side of the first metal end cover 1 is connected with a grounding wire 11, the grounding wire 11 is connected with the first metal end cover 1, and the grounding wire 11 is grounded to protect the bearing oil film from being punctured by the shaft voltage and effectively avoid electric corrosion of the bearing.
