[0002] The development of magnetic levitation technology has led to the emergence of magnetic bearings. These bearings are generally used in high-speed rotating mechanical equipment, providing frictionless support and stable suspension. They are widely used in high-precision and demanding equipment such as flywheel energy storage, turbines, vacuum equipment, and generators. In magnetic bearing systems, the radial and axial suspension positions of rotating bodies must be precisely controlled.

Furthermore, by providing coils wound around the connecting portion, when the radial or axial position of the rotating shaft needs to be adjusted, the radial or axial position of the rotating shaft can be adjusted simply by passing a current of a preset direction through the coils of each stator winding. Therefore, the aforementioned magnetic bearing system can adjust the radial or axial position of the rotating shaft in real time simply by controlling the flow direction of the current in a single coil of each stator winding. This simple and reliable structure reduces design complexity, while also helping to reduce the size of the magnetic bearing system and control manufacturing costs.

[0020] Start the sensor, power amplifier and controller, and energize the coil at the same time;

[0021] The sensor detects the position of the rotating shaft relative to the stator teeth along its axial direction and radial direction;

[0022] When the sensor detects that the rotating shaft deviates from the preset axial position range along the axial direction, the controller controls the power amplifier to adjust the flow direction of the current in each of the coils so that the same direction of current flows through the two diametrically opposite coils until the rotating shaft falls into the preset axial position range along the axial direction; and / or

If any, the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only embodiment.

[0043] Considering that existing magnetic bearing systems usually use radial adjustment coils and axial adjustment coils to control the position of the rotating body in the radial and axial directions respectively, the use of two independent coil mechanisms has high design difficulty, structural volume and manufacturing cost, which is not conducive to the development of magnetic bearing systems towards miniaturization, high efficiency and intelligence. The present application provides a magnetic bearing system, a magnetic bearing system control method and electrical equipment, which not only does not require the use of two independent sets of coils, but also has a simple structure, low design difficulty, structural volume and manufacturing cost, and is easy to apply and promote.

[0044] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of the present application provides a magnetic bearing system 10, which may include a fixed frame 11, a rotating shaft 12, a permanent magnet 13, and a stator winding 14. The rotating shaft 12 is disposed through the fixed frame 11 and has a radial shoulder 121 around its axis 12a. The fixed frame 11 has a suspension cavity 11a, and a permanent magnet 13 is fixed in the suspension cavity 11a and arranged around the axis 12a of the rotating shaft 12. The rotating shaft 12 is suspended in the suspension cavity 11a under the magnetic effect of the permanent magnet 13. There are at least four stator windings 14 , each of which is evenly arranged circumferentially around the axis 12 a of the rotating shaft 12 . The stator winding 14 includes stator teeth 141 and coils 142 . The stator teeth 141 have suspension grooves 141 a , and the bosses 121 are received in the suspension grooves 141 a along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 12 . The coils 142 are wound around the stator teeth 141 and arranged opposite the bosses 121 along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 12 .

[0045] The magnetic bearing system 10, through the provision of the permanent magnet 13, enables the shaft 12 to be suspended within the suspension chamber 11a under the magnetic effect of the permanent magnet 13. Furthermore, by providing the coil 142 wound around the connection portion 1413, when the radial or axial position of the shaft 12 needs to be adjusted, the radial or axial position of the shaft 12 can be adjusted by simply passing a current of a preset direction through the coil 142 of each stator winding 14. Therefore, the magnetic bearing system 10 can adjust the radial or axial position of the shaft 12 in real time simply by controlling the direction of the current flowing through a single coil 142 of each stator winding 14. This simple and reliable structure reduces design complexity, while also helping to reduce the size of the magnetic bearing system 10 and control manufacturing costs.

[0046] For example, see Figure 4 The rotating shaft 12 is arranged in the vertical direction and has a downward gravity. The rotating shaft 12 is kept suspended in the suspension chamber 11a under the magnetic effect of the permanent magnet 13. The approximate distribution of the magnetic flux lines of the permanent magnet 13 is as follows: Figure 4 It is worth noting that Figure 4The example of two radially opposing stator windings 14 along the rotating shaft 12 is shown. It is understood that the magnetic bearing system 10 includes at least two pairs of radially opposing stator windings 14 around the axis 12a of the rotating shaft 12 and along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12. It should be noted that the aforementioned pair of radially opposing stator windings 14 refers to two stator windings 14 that are 180° opposite each other around the axis 12a. It is noteworthy that the boss 121 is received in the suspension slot 141a along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 12, such that the boss 121 and the stator tooth 141 have a first axial air gap y1 and a second axial air gap y2, respectively, in the axial direction, and the stator tooth 141 has a radial air gap x in the radial direction with respect to the rotating shaft 12.

[0047] For example, see Figure 5 When the rotating shaft 12 deflects upward during rotation, it is necessary to adjust the rotating shaft 12 downward. To do this, currents in the same direction can be passed through the two radially opposing coils 142, causing both coils 142 to generate an upward magnetic field (as determined by the right-hand screw rule). Analysis of the distribution of magnetic flux lines generated by the left and right coils 142 shows that, axially, the magnetic field of coils 142 suppresses the magnetic flux density between the boss 121 and the stator teeth 141 in the second axial air gap y2, while enhancing the magnetic flux density between the boss 121 and the stator teeth 141 in the first axial air gap y1. This generates a combined downward force on the rotating shaft 12. In this way, downward adjustment of the rotating shaft 12 along its axial direction is possible.

[0048] Furthermore, in the radial direction, the magnetic fields generated by the left and right coils 142 have the same magnitude and opposite directions in enhancing the magnetic flux density in the radial air gaps x on both sides. Therefore, the magnetic fields generated by the coils 142 in the radial direction have no driving effect on the position adjustment of the rotating shaft 12. Thus, by passing current in the same direction through the two radially opposing coils 142 and causing both coils 142 to generate upward magnetic fields, downward adjustment of the rotating shaft 12 can be achieved.

[0049] For example, see Figure 6 , when the rotating shaft 12 deviates downward during rotation, the rotating shaft 12 needs to be adjusted upward. In this way, the same-direction current can be passed through the two radially opposite coils 142 and the two coils 142 can generate a downward magnetic field. Analysis of the distribution of magnetic flux lines generated by the left and right coils 142 shows that in the axial direction, the magnetic field of the coil 142 enhances the magnetic density of the boss 121 and the stator teeth 141 in the second axial air gap y2, and suppresses the magnetic density of the boss 121 and the stator teeth 141 in the first axial air gap y1, thereby generating an upward resultant force on the rotating shaft 12. In this way, the rotating shaft 12 can be adjusted upward along its axial direction.

[0050] Furthermore, in the radial direction, the magnetic fields generated by the left and right coils 142 exert a magnetic flux density suppression effect on the radial air gaps x of equal magnitude and in opposite directions. Therefore, they have no driving effect on radial position adjustment of the rotating shaft 12. Thus, by passing current in the same direction through the two radially opposing coils 142 and causing both coils 142 to generate downward magnetic fields, downward adjustment of the rotating shaft 12 can be achieved.

[0051] For example, see Figure 7 , when the rotating shaft 12 deviates to the right during rotation, the rotating shaft 12 needs to be adjusted to the left. In this way, opposite currents can be passed through the two radially opposite coils 142 and the two coils 142 can generate magnetic fields with one side facing upward and the other side facing downward respectively. Analysis of the distribution of magnetic flux lines generated by the left and right coils 142 shows that in the radial direction, the magnetic field generated by the left coil 142 has a magnetic flux enhancement effect in the radial air gap x on the left, and the magnetic field generated by the right coil 142 has a magnetic flux suppression effect in the radial air gap x on the right, thereby generating a resultant force to the left on the rotating shaft 12. In this way, the rotating shaft 12 can be adjusted to the left along its radial direction.

[0052] In addition, in the axial direction, the magnetic field generated by the left coil 142 has a magnetic flux enhancement effect in the first axial air gap y1 on the left and a magnetic flux suppression effect in the second axial air gap y2 on the left. In the axial direction, the magnetic field generated by the right coil 142 has a magnetic flux suppression effect in the first axial air gap y1 on the right and a magnetic flux enhancement effect in the second axial air gap y2 on the right. Therefore, in the axial direction, the magnetic flux effects on the left and right sides are of the same magnitude and opposite directions, and therefore have no driving effect on the position adjustment of the rotating shaft 12 in the axial direction. In this way, by passing opposite currents through the two radially opposite coils 142 and causing the two coils 142 to generate magnetic fields with one side pointing upward and the other side pointing downward, respectively, the rotating shaft 12 can be adjusted to the left.

[0053] For example, see Figure 8 , when the rotating shaft 12 deviates to the left during rotation, the rotating shaft 12 needs to be adjusted to the right. In this way, opposite currents can be passed through the two radially opposite coils 142 and the two coils 142 can generate magnetic fields with one side pointing downward and the other side pointing upward, respectively. Analysis of the distribution of magnetic flux lines generated by the left and right coils 142 shows that in the radial direction, the magnetic field generated by the left coil 142 has a magnetic density suppression effect in the radial air gap x on the left, and the magnetic field generated by the right coil 142 has a magnetic density enhancement effect in the radial air gap x on the right, thereby generating a resultant force to the right on the rotating shaft 12. In this way, the rotating shaft 12 can be adjusted to the right along its radial direction.

[0054] In addition, in the axial direction, the magnetic field generated by the left coil 142 has a magnetic flux suppression effect in the first axial air gap y1 on the left, and a magnetic flux enhancement effect in the second axial air gap y2 on the left. In the axial direction, the magnetic field generated by the right coil 142 has a magnetic flux enhancement effect in the first axial air gap y1 on the right, and a magnetic flux suppression effect in the second axial air gap y2 on the right. Therefore, in the axial direction, the magnetic flux effects on the left and right sides are of equal magnitude and opposite directions, and therefore have no driving effect on the axial position adjustment of the rotating shaft 12. In this way, by passing opposite currents through the two radially opposite coils 142 and causing the two coils 142 to generate magnetic fields with one side pointing downward and the other side pointing upward, respectively, the rotating shaft 12 can be adjusted to the right.

[0055] Optionally, combined Figure 3 As shown, the stator teeth 141 may include a first tooth 1411 and a second tooth 1412 arranged in parallel and spaced apart, and a connecting portion 1413 connecting the first tooth 1411 and the second tooth 1412. The coil 142 is wound around the connecting portion 1413. The first tooth 1411, the second tooth 1412 and the connecting portion 1413 form a suspension groove 141a. The suspension groove 141a is used to position the boss 121 of the rotating shaft 12.

[0056] Optionally, the extension axis 12a of the connecting portion 1413 can be parallel to the axis 12a of the rotating shaft 12, so as to improve the balance of the magnetic field effect of each stator winding 14 on the rotating shaft 12 in the circumferential direction around the axis 12a of the rotating shaft 12, thereby improving the effect of axial or radial position adjustment of the rotating shaft 12.

[0057] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the length of the first tooth 1411 is greater than the length of the second tooth 1412; the first tooth 1411 has a radial air gap x with the rotating shaft 12 along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 12, the first tooth 1411 forms a first axial air gap y1 with the boss 121 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12, and the second tooth 1412 forms a second axial air gap y2 with the boss 121 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12.

[0058] It is worth noting that by making the length of the first tooth 1411 greater than the length of the second tooth 1412, the gap between the first tooth 1411 and the rotating shaft 12 is smaller than the gap between the second tooth 1412 and the rotating shaft 12. Then, along the radial direction of the rotating shaft, the radial position of the rotating shaft is adjusted mainly by affecting the magnetic density of the radial air gap x between the first tooth 1411 and the rotating shaft.

[0059] Optionally, the first axial air gap y1 is larger than the second axial air gap y2 , so that the coil 142 can enhance or suppress the magnetic flux density of the first axial air gap y1 and the second axial air gap y2 .

[0060] It can be understood that the length of the first tooth 1411 of this embodiment is greater than the length of the second tooth 1412, so the projected area of ​​the first tooth 1411 on the boss 121 is greater than the projected area of ​​the second tooth 1412 on the boss 121. Therefore, if the first axial air gap y1 and the second axial air gap y2 are equal, the magnetic density of the first axial air gap y1 must be greater than the magnetic density of the second axial air gap y2.

[0061] Therefore, this embodiment adaptively increases the first axial air gap y1 relative to the second axial air gap y2 , which helps to balance the magnetic flux density changes of the first axial air gap y1 and the second axial air gap y2 , thereby helping to improve the accuracy of magnetic flux density adjustment.

[0062] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the magnetic bearing system 10 may include a support frame 15, which is arranged in a suspension cavity 11a of the fixed frame 11. The support frame 15 is arranged along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12 around the axis 12a of the rotating shaft 12, and the suspension groove 141a of each stator tooth 141 is clamped to the support frame 15, so that each stator tooth 141 can be stably clamped and fixed, and each stator tooth 141 is located on the same plane, which helps to improve the position adjustment effect of each stator winding 14 on the rotating shaft 12.

[0063] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the magnetic bearing system 10 may include a magnetic conductive member 16 , which is sandwiched between the permanent magnet 13 and the stator teeth 141 , thereby helping to improve the magnetic force transmission effect and further enhance the position adjustment effect of each stator winding 14 on the rotating shaft 12 .

[0064] Optionally, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixing frame 11 may include an end ring 111 and a bottom bracket 112. The end ring 111 abuts against the side of the permanent magnet 13 away from the stator tooth 141 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12, and the bottom bracket 112 abuts against the side of the stator tooth 141 away from the permanent magnet 13 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12. This helps to improve the compactness of the structure and the ease of assembly.

[0065] Optionally, the end ring 111 has a through-hole 111a, which is used for the rotating shaft 12 to pass through. In this way, when assembling the magnetic bearing system 10, it is only necessary to pass one end of the rotating shaft 12 through the through-hole 111a, then install the stator winding 14, and finally abut the bottom bracket 112 against the side of the stator winding 14 away from the permanent magnet 13. The installation process is simple, fast and reliable.

[0066] Optionally, the magnetic bearing system 10 may include a sensor (not shown), a power amplifier (not shown) and a controller (not shown), the sensor being connected between the rotating shaft 12 and the stator teeth 141 , the controller being electrically connected to both the sensor and the power amplifier, and the power amplifier being electrically connected to the coil 142 .

[0067] Specifically, by adding sensors, power amplifiers and controllers, the magnetic bearing system 10 can be used in various scenarios where the rotating shaft 12 needs to be suspended, such as applying the magnetic bearing system 10 to high-precision and high-requirement equipment such as flywheel energy storage, turbines, vacuum equipment, generators, etc., thereby improving the applicability of the magnetic bearing system 10.

[0068] See also Figure 9 According to another aspect of the present application, the present application further provides a magnetic bearing system control method, which uses the above-mentioned magnetic bearing system 10 and includes the following steps:

[0069] S1, start the sensor, power amplifier and controller, and energize the coil 142 at the same time;

[0070] S2. Detecting the position of the rotating shaft 12 relative to the stator teeth 141 along its axial and radial directions through sensors;

[0071] S3. When the sensor detects that the rotating shaft 12 deviates from the preset axial position range in the axial direction, the controller controls the power amplifier to adjust the flow direction of the current in each coil 142, so that the same direction current flows into the two radially opposite coils 142 until the rotating shaft 12 falls into the preset axial position range in the axial direction; and / or, when the sensor detects that the rotating shaft 12 deviates from the preset radial position range in the radial direction, the controller controls the power amplifier to adjust the flow direction of the current in each coil 142, so that the opposite direction current flows into the two radially opposite coils 142 until the rotating shaft 12 falls into the preset radial position range in the axial direction.

[0072] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application further provides an electrical device, which includes the above-mentioned magnetic bearing system 10; or, the electrical device applies the above-mentioned magnetic bearing system control method to control the magnetic bearing system 10.

[0073] The above-mentioned magnetic bearing system control method and electrical equipment can adjust the radial or axial position of the rotating shaft 12 in real time by simply controlling the flow direction of the current in a single coil 142 of each stator winding 14.
