Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of motor installation, and particularly relates to a built-in bearing positioning and pre-tightening method for an integrated torque motor. BACKGROUND

[0002] As an important executive component in a dynamic system, a motor is widely used in various transmission systems. According to the application environment of different systems, the installation mode of the motor on the system is also different.

[0003] For a general integrated permanent magnet motor, the rotor and the motor shaft are an integral structure, and the stator and the rotor are connected through two bearings. As a core component determining the service life, noise and friction torque of the motor, the bearing mainly functions to support the rotating body, reduce the friction coefficient in the movement process thereof, and ensure the rotation accuracy thereof. For an external bearing positioning and pre-tightening method, it is relatively mature. However, for a built-in bearing, currently, three methods are generally used for bearing pre-tightening: 1. A wave-shaped gasket is used to fix the bearing at one end; 2. An elastic retainer is used to fix the bearing at one end; and 3. Two lock nuts are used to lock the entire shaft system at one of the bearings (usually the outer bearing). The first two methods belong to fixed-pressure pre-tightening, and are suitable for high-speed low-load and low-environment adaptability. The third method, although belonging to positioning and pre-tightening, has higher rigidity and better anti-impact and anti-vibration characteristics, but it is difficult to accurately quantify the pre-tightening force of a single bearing by using the double lock nuts, and only the force of the two lock nuts can be quantified, and the far end does not directly contact the lock nut, and is affected by the entire shaft system, so it is difficult to ensure that the pre-tightening force is applied in place. Thus, the shaft system rigidity and anti-impact capacity are reduced. In summary, there is currently no simple and reliable built-in bearing positioning and pre-tightening method for an integrated torque motor.
