Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of reciprocating motors, in particular to a linear reciprocating motor. Background Art

[0002] In daily production and life, there are various mechanical equipment. In order to achieve the purpose of the machine itself, designers have designed various motion forms and motion models in the machine equipment, such as: rotational motion, eccentric motion, swinging, linear motion, among which linear reciprocating motion is also a very common motion form and motion model. This simple motion model is involved in many occasions, such as vibrating screens, massage chairs, air hammers, etc.

[0003] Currently, common solutions for achieving linear reciprocating motion on the market include: Solution 1: Using a motor to drive a reduction gearbox to drive a crankshaft or cam mechanism, or directly driving a crankshaft or cam mechanism, and utilizing motion decomposition to convert circular motion into linear motion in a certain direction; Solution 2: Using a motor to drive a reduction gearbox to drive a rack, or directly driving a linear rack, in conjunction with a current commutator to achieve linear reciprocating motion; Solution 3: Using a lead screw motor in conjunction with a current commutator to achieve linear reciprocating motion. Others include: pneumatic cylinders, hydraulic cylinders, electric cylinders, etc. However, overall, these technical solutions still have the following shortcomings: complex structure, poor reliability, difficult maintenance, and high technical requirements. For example, traditional Solution 1 involves transmission technology, gearbox technology, coupling technology, and crankshaft or cam technology, while Solutions 2 and 3 are more complex, requiring not only basic mechanical technology but also electrical control technology, and the technical requirements for maintenance personnel are relatively high.

[0022] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0023] Example 1: As shown in the attached Figure 1 To the attached Figure 4As shown: The present invention provides a linear reciprocating motor, comprising a motor housing 1, a stator 2 is arranged inside the motor housing 1, end covers 3 are fixedly installed on both sides of the motor housing 1, a rotor 4 is arranged inside the motor housing 1, a reciprocating screw nut 5 is arranged on the inner side of the rotor 4, a reciprocating screw main shaft 6 is slidably arranged on both sides of the end cover 3, a closed thread groove 7 is opened on the outer side of the reciprocating screw main shaft 6, a ball 8 is arranged inside the rotor 4, and a part of the ball 8 extends into the closed thread groove 7, wherein P is the step distance, β is the lead angle, L is the screw stroke, and D is the screw outer diameter, which can be adjusted according to actual application.

[0024] Specifically, power is applied to the stator 2 of the electric motor to generate a rotating magnetic field, which drives the rotor 4 to rotate. A reciprocating screw nut 5 with a reciprocating screw spindle embedded inside the rotor 4 rotates with the rotor 4. A ball 8 or a crescent is provided inside the rotor 4. The crescent or ball 8 moves along the direction of the screw thread, driving the reciprocating screw spindle 6 to move axially. When the crescent or ball 8 runs to the consistent farthest point, the ball 8 or the crescent mechanism continues to move after reversing under the guidance of the closed thread, and continues to turn to the other extreme point, and finally realizes a reciprocating screw mechanism embedded in the rotor 4 within the designed stroke range, driving the screw nut to rotate on the screw for linear reciprocating motion.

[0025] Preferably, a bearing 9 is installed on the inner side of the end cover 3, and the bearing 9 can be other bearings 9 that can eliminate axial force. The number of the balls 8 is at least three, and the distance between the two balls is greater than the distance where the screw thread grooves intersect, and they are arranged on one side of the reciprocating screw spindle 6. A lead angle 10 is set between the closed thread grooves 7, and the lead angle 10 is between 15 degrees and 30 degrees. When it is greater than 30 degrees, jamming will occur.

[0026] Furthermore, in some complex situations such as high precision and high load, we can consider using Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, two or more fully synchronized reciprocating motion structures are set in parallel in the reciprocating screw main shaft 6 to meet the needs. The basic principle is to synthesize the motion of two or more reciprocating screws into the main shaft to achieve reciprocating motion.

[0027] As can be seen from the above, when power is applied to the stator 2 of the electric motor, a rotating magnetic field is generated, which drives the rotor 4 to rotate. The reciprocating screw nut 5 with a reciprocating screw spindle embedded inside the rotor 4 rotates with the rotor 4. A ball 8 or a crescent is provided inside the rotor 4. The crescent or ball 8 moves along the direction of the screw thread, driving the reciprocating screw spindle 6 to move axially. When the crescent or ball 8 runs to the consistent farthest point, the ball 8 or the crescent mechanism continues to move after reversing under the guidance of the closed thread, and continues to turn to the other extreme point, and finally realizes a reciprocating screw mechanism embedded in the rotor 4 within the designed stroke range, driving the screw nut to rotate on the screw for linear reciprocating motion.
