[0034] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0035] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 The motor 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described, and the motor 100 is applied to a vehicle, for example, a suspension motor.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the motor 100 according to the present invention includes: a primary component 10, a secondary component 20 and a first bearing 30. The secondary component 20 can move along the axial direction of the secondary component 20 relative to the primary component 10. The first bearing 30 includes: a bushing 31 and a rolling element 32. The bushing 31 is arranged between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20. The rolling element 32 can be rotatably arranged on the bushing 31 and contacts the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 respectively.

[0037] It can be understood that the primary assembly 10, the secondary assembly 20 and the first bearing 30 constitute the main structure of the motor 100, the secondary assembly 20 can move relative to the primary assembly 10, and the secondary assembly 20 moves in the axial direction, so as to ensure the relative movement between the primary assembly 10 and the secondary assembly 20. For example, the primary assembly 10 is a stator assembly, the secondary assembly 20 is a mover assembly, and the mover assembly moves relative to the stator assembly.

[0038] The bushing 31 and the rolling element 32 constitute the main structure of the first bearing 30. The bushing 31 is located between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20. This arrangement allows the bushing 31 to move with the secondary component 20 relative to the primary component 10, and also allows the bushing 31 to limit the primary component 10, thereby facilitating the axial movement of the primary component 10 relative to the secondary component 20, and further facilitating the linear relative movement between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20.

[0039] Moreover, the rolling member 32 is arranged on the bushing 31 through a press-fitting process, and the rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 are clearance-fitted. Such an arrangement allows the rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 to move together relative to the primary component 10. The rolling member 32 is in contact with both the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, thereby ensuring the stable output of thrust and tension of the motor 100.

[0040] Among them, the secondary component 20 forms rolling friction with the primary component 10 through the bushing 31 and the rolling element 32. This setting can reduce the friction between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100 and reducing the energy consumption of the motor 100, and can also extend the service life of the motor 100 and ensure the performance of the motor 100.

[0041] Therefore, by setting a bushing 31 between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, and setting a rolling element 32 on the bushing 31, such a setting can reduce the friction between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100 and increasing the service life of the motor 100.

[0042] In particular, if Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the rolling member 32 can move radially relative to the bushing 31 along the secondary component 20. This arrangement can connect the rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 into a whole. The rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 move together relative to the secondary component 20, and the rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 are located between the secondary component 20 and the primary component 10, so that the rolling member 32 and the bushing 31 can limit the secondary component 20, and the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 can have a certain amount of movement in the radial direction, thereby ensuring the concentricity between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, avoiding eccentricity between the secondary component 20 and the primary component 10, and preventing the motor 100 from generating unilateral magnetic pull.

[0043] Likewise, if Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the rolling element 32 can move axially relative to the bushing 31 along the secondary component 20. This arrangement allows the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 to move together relative to the secondary component 20, and the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 are located between the secondary component 20 and the primary component 10, so that the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 can limit the secondary component 20, and can also allow the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 to have a certain amount of movement in the axial direction, thereby ensuring the concentricity between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, and improving the efficiency of the motor 100.

[0044] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, the bushing 31 is formed with a mounting hole 33, and the rolling element 32 is mounted in the mounting hole 33 and is clearance-matched with the mounting hole 33. It can be understood that the bushing 31 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 33, and the mounting holes 33 can limit the rolling element 32, so that the rolling element 32 is conveniently arranged on the bushing 31 through the mounting holes 33, and then the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 can be connected into a whole, and the rolling element 32 and the mounting holes 33 are clearance-matched, so that the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 can move together relative to the primary component 10, thereby reducing the friction between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, and then improving the efficiency of the motor 100.

[0045] Alternatively, if Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, there are multiple rolling elements 32, and the multiple rolling elements 32 are spaced apart in the circumferential and axial directions of the bushing 31. That is to say, the multiple rolling elements 32 correspond to the multiple mounting holes 33 one by one, so that the multiple rolling elements 32 can be evenly distributed along the axial and radial directions of the bushing 31, so that the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 can have a certain amount of movement in the axial and radial directions, thereby ensuring the centering between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, and preventing the motor 100 from generating unilateral magnetic pulling force. For example, 16 rolling elements 32 are evenly spaced apart in the radial direction, and 6 layers are evenly spaced apart in the axial direction, that is, 96 rolling elements 32 are arranged on the bushing 31, so that the friction between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 can be reduced, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100.

[0046] In addition, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the primary component 10 includes: a core shaft 11, and the core shaft 11 is provided with a hollow chamber 111; the secondary component 20 includes: a guide rod 22, one end of the guide rod 22 extends into the hollow chamber 111 and passes through a first bearing 30; wherein, a bushing 31 is arranged between the guide rod 22 and the core shaft 11, and a rolling element 32 is in contact with the guide rod 22 and the core shaft 11 respectively.

[0047] It can be understood that the core shaft 11 constitutes the main structure of the primary component 10, and a hollow chamber 111 is formed in the core shaft 11, so that the hollow chamber 111 can provide movement space for other components, thereby improving the movement coordination effect of the primary component 10. The secondary component 20 also includes a shell 21, and the shell 21 and the guide rod 22 constitute the main structure of the secondary component 20. The shell 21 is sleeved on the primary component 10, so that the shell 21 can protect the primary component 10, thereby extending the service life of the primary component 10. The guide rod 22 is connected to one end of the shell 21, so that the guide rod 22 and the shell 21 can move together, and the guide rod 22 can move together. One end of the rod 22 is passed through the hollow chamber 111, so that the guide rod 22 can move linearly relative to the core shaft 11, and the guide rod 22 is passed through the first bearing 30, so that the first bearing 30 can reduce the friction between the guide rod 22 and the core shaft 11, the bushing 31 is located between the guide rod 22 and the core shaft 11, and the rolling element 32 is fitted between the outer surface of the guide rod 22 and the inner surface of the core shaft 11. This arrangement can reduce the friction between the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22, thereby facilitating the axial movement of the secondary component 20 relative to the primary component 10, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100 and increasing the service life of the motor 100.

[0048] In particular, if Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the bushing 31 can move axially along the secondary component 20 relative to the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22 through the rolling element 32. This arrangement allows the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 to move together relative to the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22, and the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 are located between the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22, so that the rolling element 32 and the bushing 31 can limit the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22, and can also allow the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20 to have a certain amount of movement in the axial direction, thereby ensuring the concentricity between the primary component 10 and the secondary component 20, and improving the efficiency of the motor 100.

[0049] The mandrel 11 is provided with a first limiting structure and a second limiting structure, and the bushing 31 is located between the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure. In other words, the mandrel 11 can be provided with two limiting structures, namely the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure, which limit the bushing 31 on both sides of the bushing 31, thereby preventing the bushing 31 from coming out of the mandrel 11, and preventing the bushing 31 from moving too far relative to the mandrel 11, resulting in misalignment between it and the guide rod 22.

[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the hollow chamber 111 has a first end and a second end, one end of the guide rod 22 extends into the hollow chamber 111 through the second end, the first limiting structure is located between the first end and the second end, and the second limiting structure is located at the second end. In other words, the first limiting structure is located inside the hollow chamber 111, for example, it can be located in the middle area of ​​the length direction of the hollow chamber 111, and the second limiting structure is located at the second end of the hollow chamber 111, so that the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure can define a moving area of ​​the bushing 31 in the hollow chamber 111, and when it moves to the extreme position, it cooperates with the first limiting structure or the second limiting structure at the extreme position, so that the core shaft 11 effectively limits the position of the bushing 31.

[0051] Among them, Figure 2 As shown, the first limiting structure is configured as a limiting step 12, which is formed on the inner circumference of the core shaft 11, that is, on the inner circumference of the hollow chamber 111. It can be understood that the limiting step 12 is located on the inner circumference of the core shaft 11, and such a setting enables the limiting step 12 to limit the axial movement path of the upper end of the bushing 31, thereby facilitating the movement of the guide rod 22 relative to the core shaft 11.

[0052] In addition, if Figure 3As shown, the second limiting structure includes a limiting member 13, and the inner circumference of the core shaft 11 is provided with an assembly groove, and the limiting member 13 is assembled in the assembly groove and partially protrudes from the assembly groove. In other words, the limiting member 13 is located at the axial lower end of the core shaft 11, and the inner circumference of the core shaft 11 is provided with an assembly grass, a part of the limiting member 13 is arranged in the assembly groove, and the other part protrudes from the inner surface of the core shaft 11. Such an arrangement enables the limiting member 13 to limit the axial movement path of the bushing 31, thereby facilitating the movement of the guide rod 22 relative to the core shaft 11.

[0053] In addition, if Figure 2 As shown, the motor 100 further includes: a second bearing 40, which is disposed between the housing 21 and the spindle 11. That is, the second bearing 40 is located above the first bearing 30, and the second bearing 40 is located between the housing 21 and the spindle 11, thereby reducing the friction between the housing 21 and the spindle 11, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100. For example, the second bearing 40 is a rolling bearing or a sliding bearing, which can reduce the friction between the housing 21 and the spindle 11.

[0054] Optionally, the second bearing 40 is a self-lubricating bearing and the rolling element 32 is a ball. The self-lubricating bearing can be a bearing made of graphite or a coating such as molybdenum disulfide MoS2, graphite fluoride (CF) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). The second bearing 40 constructed in this way can maintain good lubrication without the need for external addition of lubricating grease, and has the advantages of reducing friction loss, reducing noise, improving work efficiency and reducing maintenance costs. The ball can easily fit on the inner surface of the core shaft 11 and the outer surface of the guide rod 22, thereby increasing the wear resistance between the shell 21 and the core shaft 11, and can reduce the friction between the core shaft 11 and the guide rod 22.

[0055] In addition, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a magnet 50 is arranged on the shell 21. The magnet 50 is a rare earth permanent magnet material, and the magnet 50 is interference fit with the shell 21, so that the magnet 50 can generate a stable magnetic field, so that the shell 21, the guide rod 22 and the fork arm 23 can make a linear reciprocating motion relative to the core shaft 11, thereby ensuring the performance of the motor 100.

[0056] The suspension assembly according to the present invention comprises: the motor 100 and the fork arm 23 of the above embodiment, and the fork arm 23 is connected to the secondary assembly 20. It can be understood that the fork arm 23 is located at the lower end of the housing 21, and the lower end of the guide rod 22 is connected to the fork arm 23. When the guide rod 22 moves relative to the spindle 11, the housing 21 and the fork arm 23 also move accordingly, thereby ensuring the performance of the motor 100. For example, the guide rod 22 and the fork arm 23 are connected by bolts, and the housing 21 and the fork arm 23 are also connected by bolts, so that the guide rod 22, the fork arm 23 and the housing 21 can move together relative to the primary assembly 10.

[0057] The vehicle according to the present invention comprises: the suspension assembly of the above embodiment. By arranging a bushing 31 between the primary assembly 10 and the secondary assembly 20, and arranging a rolling element 32 on the bushing 31, the friction between the primary assembly 10 and the secondary assembly 20 can be reduced, and the secondary assembly 20 moves axially relative to the primary assembly 10, which can not only avoid eccentricity between the secondary assembly 20 and the primary assembly 10, but also prevent the motor 100 from generating unilateral magnetic pulling force, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor 100 and increasing the service life of the motor 100.
