Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of rotors, and in particular relates to a self-balancing rotor structure. Background Art

[0002] In existing high-speed systems, the rotor is prone to vibration and noise due to the influence of unbalanced mass, which has a great impact on the performance of the rotor. At the same time, the rotor is also subject to changes in bearing load during operation, resulting in speed and load fluctuations, which in turn affect the stability and efficiency of the rotor. In order to solve these problems, researchers have proposed many improvement measures. For example, a shock absorber can be installed on the rotor to reduce vibration and noise; precise mass balance design can be used to make the load distribution of the rotor more uniform under various working conditions, reduce vibration and noise; and the rotor can be dynamically adjusted to always maintain it in the best state, improve the efficiency of the rotor and reduce noise. However, there are still some problems with existing technologies. For example, these technologies require additional devices or complex control systems to implement, which reduces efficiency. In addition, these technologies may require regular maintenance and replacement of parts, downtime for inspection and repair, and increase the operating cost of the rotor. Summary of the invention

[0003] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a self-balancing rotor structure, which solves the problem that the rotor can meet the dynamic balancing requirement of the rotor without stopping the rotor.

[0004] To achieve the above object, the technical solution of the present invention is achieved as follows:

[0005] A self-balancing rotor structure comprises a self-balancing rotor, a shaft, a rotor core, an annular guide and an adjustment unit. The self-balancing rotor is fixedly connected to the rotor core via the shaft. An annular guide is arranged above the rotor core and is coaxially arranged with the shaft. A plurality of adjustment units are evenly distributed circumferentially on the inner wall of the annular guide. The adjustment units are used to adjust the dynamic balance of the rotor.

[0006] Furthermore, the cross section of the annular guide is L-shaped, and the annular guide and the top surface of the rotor core form an annular groove.

[0007] Furthermore, the adjustment unit includes a counterweight assembly, an adjustment assembly and a control system. The counterweight assembly and the adjustment assembly are connected via a lead screw, and the control system drives the counterweight assembly to approach or move away from the adjustment assembly to adjust the dynamic balance of the rotor.

[0008] Furthermore, the control system is an ECU.

[0009] Furthermore, the counterweight assembly includes an adjustment block and an initial counterweight block. The adjustment block is slidably connected to the inner wall of the annular guide, and the initial counterweight block is installed on the upper side.

[0010] Furthermore, the adjustment block is connected to the initial counterweight block via a self-locking thread.

[0011] Furthermore, the adjustment component includes a pressure sensor, a fixed disk and a micro servo rotor. The pressure sensor and the micro servo rotor are both connected to the control ECU. The fixed disk is located above the rotor core and is sleeved on the outside of the shaft. The pressure sensor and the pressure plate are fixedly installed above the fixed disk. The micro servo rotor is installed on one side. The micro servo rotor and the adjustment block are connected by a lead screw, so that the micro servo rotor can drive the adjustment block to rotate through the lead screw, thereby making the counterweight assembly approach or move away from the adjustment component.

[0012] Furthermore, the adjustment units are evenly distributed in the annular groove in groups of 3 or in multiples of 3.

[0013] Furthermore, during the initial assembly, the initial counterweight blocks are accurately mass-distributed according to the dynamic balance of the self-balancing rotor, and are individually counterweighted to minimize the imbalance.

[0014] Furthermore, the adjustment assembly and the counterweight assembly are both installed in the positioning hole.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the self-balancing rotor structure of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0016] (1) In the self-balancing rotor structure of the present invention, when the rotor is running, the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor in real time changes. When the rotor imbalance increases, the pressure sensor transmits a signal to the ECU, and according to the set program, the micro servo rotor is driven to change the position of the counterweight assembly, reduce the rotor imbalance, and meet the rotor dynamic balance requirements. The function of the rotor does not need to be shut down is realized, and its reliability and safety are improved.

[0017] (2) The self-balancing rotor structure of the present invention adjusts the dynamic balance of the rotor by changing the position of the adjustment block in the annular guide in real time during the operation of the rotor, thereby eliminating vibration and noise caused by imbalance and improving the efficiency and stability of the rotor.
