Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to an automatic release mechanism of a conductive ring with a brush, in particular to a grounding brush conductive ring installed in a new energy vehicle drive motor and in sliding contact with the main shaft to lead out the shaft current. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the current new energy vehicle electrical architecture upgrading to 800V or even higher voltage, it means that the shaft current of the drive motor will cause more damage to the motor bearing. First, the motor controller of the new energy vehicle converts direct current into high-frequency alternating current to drive the motor to run, and the capacitive induced voltage caused by current conversion is coupled to the motor shaft, and then high-frequency discharge is performed on the bearing, which ablates the bearing. The high-frequency magnetic flux generated by the common-mode current of the motor controller will also cause high-frequency loop current in the drive motor, which will also damage the bearing. Therefore, a conductive module is needed to lead out the harmful shaft current to protect the bearing from the influence of electric corrosion. The brush grounding system is usually the smallest impedance, the best shaft current leading-out effect, and the longest service life of the grounding solution. At the same time, considering the convenience of installation, it is more economical and efficient to make a ring-shaped grounding module and install it close to the bearing.

[0003] The existing ring-shaped grounding solution generally uses a ring-shaped conductive fiber module, which is composed of a ring-shaped metal middle clamping multiple bundles of conductive fibers. The potential disadvantages of this ring-shaped conductive fiber module are: 1. Short service life: with the long-time operation of the motor, the conductive fiber gradually shortens after wear and tear, which cannot stably contact the motor shaft to protect the motor bearing throughout the life cycle of the motor. 2. High impedance: the contact resistance between the conductive fiber and the shaft is 1Ω, while the contact resistance between the brush and the shaft is 0.01Ω, and the contact resistance of the conductive fiber is two orders of magnitude higher than that of the carbon brush, which is not high in shaft current leading-out efficiency. 3. Additional process and higher cost: usually, the method to reduce the contact resistance between the conductive fiber and the shaft is to apply silver glue at the corresponding contact position of the shaft, and in the oil-cooled motor filled with oil, an additional isolation module is needed to isolate the oil to reduce the impedance, which increases the cost, but the effect of reducing the impedance is not obvious or sustainable.

[0004] The disadvantage of other known circular conductive modules is that the installation is difficult or requires an extra installation process. The condition for good contact between the carbon brush and the main shaft is that the contact force needs to be continuously applied to the carbon brush. At present, the carbon brush is usually pushed by a spring to contact the main shaft. Before the installation of the conductive ring and the main shaft, the carbon brush will protrude into the inside of the conductive ring under the action of the spring force. Direct assembly of the carbon brush conductive ring and the main shaft will interfere and cause abnormal assembly. Therefore, a mechanism is needed to fix the carbon brush in the conductive ring before installation and release the carbon brush after the installation of the main shaft. The existing release requires additional auxiliary installation tools or parts and an additional installation process other than the main shaft installation process to release the carbon brush. It cannot achieve the direct one-time release of the carbon brush after the installation of the main shaft. SUMMARY

[0005] The present application aims at the above problems and discloses a new energy vehicle driving motor shaft self-releasing grounding brush conductive ring, which solves the problem of the release of the brush of the brush conductive ring in the prior art, which requires additional auxiliary installation tools or parts and an additional installation process.

[0036] As shown in Figures 1-7 The present embodiment provides a new energy vehicle driving motor shaft self-releasing grounding brush conductive ring, which is arranged in the electric drive and coaxially arranged with the main shaft or gear box main shaft, and the bottom surface and the outer cylindrical surface of the grounding brush conductive ring are in contact with the shell of the electric drive. The grounding brush conductive ring comprises a conductive ring 1 and a brush self-releasing mechanism. The center of the conductive ring 1 is provided with an opening for the main shaft 8 to pass through. Three sets of brush self-releasing mechanisms are uniformly distributed on the annular end face of the conductive ring 1 in the circumferential direction. Each brush self-releasing mechanism comprises a brush 2, a brush holder 3, an elastic member 4 and a mounting seat 5.

The sliding groove 32 and the clamping groove 31 are arranged on both sides and the top of the shell part 301 respectively, and the brush 2 is arranged on the inner side of the shell part 301.

[0041] In the embodiment, a recess 13 is formed on the end face of the conductive ring 1 at each brush self-releasing mechanism, and the two sides of the recess are attached to the flat plate part 302 on both sides of the brush holder 3. A protrusion 14 is arranged on the surface of the recess 13 at the inner side of the shell part 301, and the protrusion 14 cooperates with the inner side of the shell part 301 to form a square area and limit and guide the brush 2.

[0042] In the embodiment, the limiting end 41 of the torsion spring is arranged in a Z-shaped bending manner, and the one end of the flat plate part 302 on the side of the brush holder 3 close to the torsion spring is bent upward to form a limiting strip 33 for abutting and limiting the limiting end 41 of the torsion spring. One end of the limiting end 41 abuts against the limiting strip 33, the middle part of the limiting end 41 passes through the clamping groove 31 on the brush holder 3 and limits the head of the brush 2, and the clamping groove 31 limits the middle part of the limiting end 41 in the horizontal direction. The other end of the limiting end 41 is arranged in a bending manner and extends into the central hole of the conductive ring 1.

[0043] In the embodiment, the mounting seat 5 is a cylindrical rotary body and is used for sleeving the torsion spring. The mounting seat 5 is arranged on the flat plate part 302 of the brush holder 3 or the end face of the conductive ring 1.

The brush braid 21 passes through the sliding groove 32 on the other side of the brush holder 3 and is connected and fixed with the brush holder 3 or the conductive ring 1. In the embodiment, the brush braid 21 is connected with the flat plate part 302 of the brush holder 3. In some applications, the brush braid 21 can be omitted to reduce the cost. The head top end and the tail part of the brush body 25 are respectively provided with recesses for abutting and contacting the limiting end 41 and the supporting end 42 of the torsion spring. The end face of the head of the brush body 25 is a sliding contact surface 24 for contacting the main shaft 8. In the embodiment, the recess of the head of the brush body 25 is a stepped groove structure and is arranged at the head top end of the brush body 25. The recess of the tail of the brush body 25 is a V-shaped groove 23 structure. The brush body 25 is arranged in the square area formed by the protrusion 14 of the brush holder 3 and the conductive ring 1. The brush holder 3 and the conductive ring 1 are fixed to limit the brush 2 in the square area.

[0045] As shown in Figures 1-2 , the main shaft 8 is inserted into the central hole of the conductive ring 1 and is pushed in the axial direction. When the bent part of the limiting end 41 of the torsion spring is touched, the limiting end 41 of the torsion spring is lifted upward. Under the action of the spring force, the limiting end 41 is retracted in the peripheral direction of the conductive ring 1, and the triggering action of the torsion spring is completed.

[0046] As shown in Figures 6-7 , after the torsion spring is pushed and retracted in the axial direction, the supporting end 42 of the torsion spring pushes the brush 2 to move to the center of the conductive ring 1, and the self-releasing of the brush 2 is completed.
