Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of motor technology, and in particular to a modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of new energy electric vehicle technology, both its production and sales have increased significantly. The demand for built-in permanent magnet motors in the new energy electric vehicle sector is also rising. Improving motor production efficiency and ensuring stable motor operation are future trends in motor manufacturing. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a permanent magnet motor rotor structure with a splicable rotor core, which simplifies the processing difficulty of the core while maintaining the original structural strength of the motor and improves the manufacturing speed of the permanent magnet motor rotor.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0005] A modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure includes a rotor core, a connecting platform, multiple magnets, and a rotating shaft;
[0006] The rotor core is composed of 2p identical sector-shaped core units spliced along the circumference of the rotor core, where p is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1;
[0007] The connecting platform is fitted on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft, and the rotor core is fitted on the outer periphery of the connecting platform; there are multiple magnets, and each magnet is connected to two adjacent sector-shaped core units.
[0008] Preferably, the outer periphery of the connecting platform has a first groove arranged at intervals along its circumference, and each sector core unit has a boss on its radial side that mates with the first groove.
[0009] Preferably, each sector-shaped core unit has a second groove on both sides of its circumference; when the sector-shaped core units are spliced together to form a rotor core, the second groove of the adjacent sector-shaped core units forms a magnet slot for accommodating magnets.
[0010] Preferably, the spaced positions between two adjacent first grooves on the outer periphery of the connecting platform are configured as protrusions; each protrusion has a circumferentially extending inner section magnetic isolation groove; the top of each protrusion has a T-shaped protrusion, and the two sides of the T-shaped protrusion are configured as outer section magnetic isolation grooves.
[0011] Preferably, each sector core unit has a core protrusion on the other radial side. There are two core protrusions, located on the circumferential sides of each sector core unit, so that when the sector core units are spliced together to form a rotor core, the joint area of two adjacent sector core units forms a core boss.
[0012] Each sector-shaped core unit also has a magnetically shielding groove adjacent to the core protrusion;
[0013] The magnets are snap-fit magnets. When the sector-shaped iron core units are spliced together to form the rotor iron core, the two ends of each snap-fit magnet are inserted into the magnetic snap-fit grooves of the two adjacent sector-shaped iron core units, so that each snap-fit magnet snaps against the outer periphery of the iron core boss constructed by the two adjacent sector-shaped iron core units.
[0014] Preferably, it also includes multiple magnetic sheaths, each magnetic sheath being attached to the outer periphery of a magnet with a corresponding buckle.
[0015] Preferably, the magnetic sheath has multiple longitudinally through-holes for heat dissipation.
[0016] Preferably, it also includes a shaft platform, which is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the rotating shaft, and the rotor core is sleeved on the outer circumferential surface of the shaft platform.
[0017] As can be seen from the technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present invention above, the present invention provides a spliced permanent magnet motor rotor structure, which splices 2p identical rotor sector iron core units along the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core to form a complete rotor iron core. Moreover, the rotor sector iron core units can be spliced together to form magnetic steel slots along the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core. Compared with the current integral circular magnetic steel sheet, this rotor structure adopts a modular design of the rotor iron core, which simplifies the processing steps and reduces the difficulty, increases the manufacturing speed of the permanent magnet motor rotor iron core, effectively reduces the processing cost, and is suitable for mass production in industry. Furthermore, when the rotor fails, only the sector iron core unit at the faulty location needs to be replaced, without replacing the entire rotor, effectively reducing the later maintenance cost.
[0018] Additional aspects and advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and will become apparent from the description or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0036] To facilitate understanding of the embodiments of the present invention, the following will provide further explanation and description with reference to the accompanying drawings and several specific embodiments. These embodiments do not constitute a limitation on the embodiments of the present invention.
[0037] Example 1:
[0038] This implementation example presents a modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure, which is an internal modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes a rotor core, which is formed by connecting 2p identical sector-shaped core units 001 along the circumference of the rotor core. For ease of production and assembly, the sector-shaped core units 001 are uniformly stamped from silicon steel sheets of the same size and shape used in motors. The 2p sector-shaped core units 001 are connected to each other by, but not limited to, welding.
[0039] The sector-shaped iron core unit 001 is connected to the connecting platform 002 of the sector-shaped iron core unit along the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core via a slot, and is connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0040] The connecting platform 002 of the sector-shaped iron core unit is connected to the shaft platform 103, and the rotating shaft 111 is connected to the shaft platform 110. For example... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a boss 003 is added to the inner side of the rotor core in the diameter direction. The boss 003 can be inserted into the first groove 004 on the core unit connecting platform and connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0041] The sector-shaped iron core unit has symmetrical second grooves 006 on both sides. When two identical sector-shaped iron core units are connected along the circumference of the rotor iron core, the second grooves 006 of the two adjacent sector-shaped iron core units combine to form a magnet slot 005, and a magnet is installed in the magnet slot 005; where p is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1.
[0042] The sector-shaped core unit 001 is a solid magnetic conductor, or the rotor core is made of multiple stamped magnetic steel sheets with the same shape, which are stamped axially.
[0043] Example 2:
[0044] This implementation case proposes a modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure, which is a built-in modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure, such as... Figure 4 As shown, it includes a rotor core, which is formed by connecting 2p identical sector-shaped core units 001 along the circumference of the rotor core. For ease of production and assembly, the sector-shaped core units 001 are uniformly stamped from silicon steel sheets of the same size and shape used in motors. The 2p sector-shaped core units 001 are connected to each other by, but not limited to, welding.
[0045] The sector-shaped core unit 001 is connected (assembled) to the outer periphery of the connecting platform 002 via a slot along the circumferential direction of the rotor core, and is connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0046] The connecting platform 002 is connected to the shaft platform 010 (sleeved), and the rotating shaft 011 is connected to the shaft platform 010 (sleeved). A boss 003 is added to the inner side of the rotor core in the diameter direction. The boss 003 can be inserted into the first groove 004 on the connecting platform of the core unit and connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0047] The sector-shaped core unit 001 has symmetrical second grooves 006 on both sides. When two identical sector-shaped core units 001 are connected along the circumference of the rotor core, the second grooves 006 of two adjacent sector-shaped core units 001 combine to form a magnet slot 005, in which a magnet is installed; where p is a positive integer greater than or equal to 1. It should be understood that the symmetry here refers to axial symmetry about the joint between two adjacent sector-shaped core units.
[0048] like Figure 4 and 5As shown, the magnet groove 005 has an inner magnetic isolation groove 008 and an outer magnetic isolation groove 009 at the end of the magnet near the connection side between the fan-shaped core unit 001 and the core unit connecting platform 002 to reduce end magnetic leakage. Specifically, a protrusion can be constructed at the interval between two adjacent first grooves 004 on the outer periphery of the connecting platform 002 (since the grooves are recessed, this position is relatively naturally convex); each protrusion has a circumferentially extending inner magnetic isolation groove 009; the top of each protrusion has a T-shaped protrusion 007, and the two sides of the T-shaped protrusion 007 are constructed as hollow outer magnetic isolation grooves 008. The outer magnetic isolation grooves 008 and the T-shaped protrusions 007 can serve to support the magnet.
[0049] The inner section magnetic shielding groove is located in the area of the two sector-shaped iron core units 001, and is composed of the T-shaped protrusion 007 of the iron core unit connecting platform 002 and the magnet. The height and width of the outer section magnetic shielding groove 008 should be less than 1 / 4 and greater than 1 / 8 of the width l0 of the magnet groove to ensure the mechanical strength of the T-shaped protrusion 007 and the magnet groove and the magnetic shielding effect of the magnetic shielding groove.
[0050] When two sector-shaped iron core units 001 are combined; after the magnet is inserted into the magnet slot 005, the T-shaped protrusion 007 plays the role of supporting the magnet; the gap between the magnet slots on the left and right of the T-shaped protrusion 007 is constructed as the outer section magnetic isolation slot 008.
[0051] The sector-shaped core unit 001 is a solid magnetic conductor, or the rotor core is made of multiple stamped magnetic steel sheets with the same shape, which are stamped axially.
[0052] Implementation Case 3:
[0053] This implementation example presents a surface-mounted permanent magnet motor rotor structure, such as... Figure 6 As shown, it includes a rotor core, which is formed by connecting 2p identical sector-shaped core units 001 along the circumference of the rotor core. For ease of production and assembly, the sector-shaped core units 001 are uniformly stamped from silicon steel sheets of the same size and shape used in motors. The 2p sector-shaped core units 001 are connected to each other by, but not limited to, welding.
[0054] The sector-shaped iron core unit 001 is connected to the sector-shaped iron core unit connecting platform 002 along the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core via a slot, and is connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0055] The fan-shaped core unit connecting platform 002 is interconnected with the shaft platform 010, and the rotating shaft 411 is interconnected with the shaft platform 410. A boss 003 is added to the inner side of the rotor core in the diameter direction. The boss 003 can be inserted into the first groove 002 on the core unit connecting platform and connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding. The groove shape can be, but is not limited to, dovetail grooves to increase rotor strength; the material of the core unit connecting platform can be, but is not limited to, the same magnetic material as the core; the material of the core unit connecting platform can also be, but is not limited to, non-magnetic materials such as stainless steel.
[0056] like Figure 7 As shown, the fan-shaped core units 001 are spliced to form core protrusions 305 distributed along the circumference; snap-fit magnets 306 are installed on the core protrusions 305. Their magnetization directions are four different directions: the left and right snap-fit ends are magnetized tangentially to the circumference of the motor rotor with opposite directions at both ends; the top of the snap-fit is magnetized radially along the motor. This magnetization method allows the snap-fit magnets to magnetize inwards or outwards; and the snap-fit magnets are installed on the protrusions formed by splicing two fan-shaped core units, and their special snap-fit structure increases the structural strength between the fan-shaped core units 001. The snap-fit ends are snapped into the magnetically shielded snap-fit grooves 308, with a gap between them and the end of the magnetically shielded snap-fit grooves 308 to reduce end magnetic leakage.
[0057] The sector-shaped core unit 001 is a solid magnetic conductor, or the rotor core is made of multiple stamped magnetic steel sheets with the same shape, which are stamped axially.
[0058] Implementation Case 4:
[0059] This implementation example presents a surface-mounted permanent magnet motor rotor structure, such as... Figure 8 As shown, it includes a rotor core, which is formed by connecting 2p identical sector-shaped core units 301 along the circumference of the rotor core. For ease of production and assembly, the sector-shaped core units 301 are uniformly stamped from silicon steel sheets of the same size and shape for motors. The 2p sector-shaped core units 301 are connected to each other by, but not limited to, welding.
[0060] The sector-shaped iron core unit 001 is connected to the sector-shaped iron core unit connecting platform 002 along the circumferential direction of the rotor iron core via a slot, and is connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding.
[0061] The fan-shaped core unit connecting platform 002 is interconnected with the shaft platform 010, and the rotating shaft 011 is interconnected with the shaft platform 010. A boss 003 is added to the inner side of the rotor core in the diameter direction. The boss 003 can be inserted into the groove 004 on the core unit connecting platform and connected to each other by means of, but not limited to, welding. The groove shape can be, but is not limited to, dovetail grooves to increase rotor strength. The material of the core unit connecting platform can be, but is not limited to, the same magnetic material as the core; the material of the core unit connecting platform can also be, but is not limited to, non-magnetic materials such as stainless steel.
[0062] The fan-shaped core units 001 are spliced together to form core protrusions 005 distributed along the circumference; snap-fit magnets 306 are installed on the core protrusions 005. Their magnetization directions are three different directions: the left and right snap-fit ends are magnetized tangentially to the circumference of the motor rotor with opposite directions at both ends; the top of the snap-fit is magnetized radially along the motor. This magnetization method allows the snap-fit magnets 306 to magnetize inwards or outwards. Furthermore, the snap-fit magnets 306 are installed on the core protrusions 005 formed by splicing two fan-shaped core units, and their special snap-fit structure increases the structural strength between the fan-shaped core units 001. The snap-fit ends are snapped into the magnetically insulating slots 308 to reduce end magnetic leakage.
[0063] like Figure 9 and 10 As shown, the function of the magnet sheath 307 is to protect the magnet and increase its magnetic conductivity. Its material can be, but is not limited to, the same magnetic conductive material as the iron core. Its structure is the same snap-fit structure as the snap-fit magnet, which further increases the structural strength of the fan-shaped iron core unit 301 and the magnet 306. The magnet sheath 307 has multiple heat dissipation holes 309, which can improve the heat dissipation of the magnet.
[0064] The sector-shaped core unit 001 is a solid magnetic conductor, or the rotor core is made of multiple stamped magnetic steel sheets with the same shape, which are stamped axially.
[0065] In summary, this invention provides a modular permanent magnet motor rotor structure. Two identical rotor sector-shaped core units are spliced together along the circumference of the rotor core to form a complete rotor core. Furthermore, the splicing of these sector-shaped core units creates magnetic slots along the circumference of the rotor core. Compared to the current monolithic circular magnetic steel sheets, this rotor structure employs a modular rotor core design, simplifying processing steps and reducing complexity. This increases the manufacturing speed of the permanent magnet motor rotor core and effectively reduces processing costs, making it suitable for mass production in industry. Moreover, when a rotor malfunctions, only the faulty sector-shaped core unit needs to be replaced, without replacing the entire rotor, effectively reducing subsequent maintenance costs.
