[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0020] On the contrary, the present invention covers any substitution, modification, equivalent method and scheme made on the essence and scope of the present invention as defined by the claims. Further, in order to make the public have a better understanding of the present invention, some specific details are described in detail in the detailed description of the present invention below. Those skilled in the art can fully understand the present invention without the description of these details.

[0021] like Figure 1 A method for manufacturing a motor rotor is shown, and the manufacturing method includes the following steps: first, a rotor core is made. Silicon steel sheets are selected as raw materials, and the silicon steel sheets are placed in a punching machine for punching to form rotor punching sheets, and the rotor punching sheets are stacked and pressed and fixed in sequence to form a rotor core. The initial stacking height of the rotor punching sheets can be 1.1 or 1.2 times the height of the finished product, so that after being pressed and fixed, the height of the motor rotor can be guaranteed to meet the product requirements. The fixing method of the rotor punching sheets can be selected by welding with a welding gun or by connecting with nails, and the welding can be argon arc welding or laser welding.

[0022] Secondly, assembling accessories in the manufactured rotor core, that is, installing the rotating shaft in the axial slot extending axially through the center of the rotor core, and inserting guide bars in sequence into the axially extending rotor slots formed in the circumferential direction of the rotor core to manufacture the rotor. The guide bars are made of copper material, and the length of the guide bars is the same as the length of the rotor slots.

[0023] Afterwards, the end ring blank is manufactured and assembled. Aluminum plate is selected as the raw material, and the aluminum plate is placed in a punching machine for punching to form a circular end ring blank. The end ring blank is installed at both ends of the rotor. The diameter of the end ring blank is larger than the diameter of the finished end ring.

[0024] Since there are many pores and bubbles in the aluminum plate, there will also be many pores and bubbles in the end ring made of it, which makes the quality of the end ring poor. If it is not processed, it will affect the use of the motor rotor. Therefore, it needs to be vented.

[0025] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first step of the exhaust step is to heat the rotor end ring, and transfer the rotor to a steel magnetic conductive material cavity wrapped by a high-frequency heating ring to heat the rotor end ring. The heating time is set to 4 minutes, and the heating temperature can be set to 450°C, 500°C or 650°C, so that the rotor end ring is in a molten state; the second step of the exhaust step is to extrude the rotor end ring, and transfer the heated rotor to an extruder. Under the drive of the first driving mechanism, the first shaping mold 1 presses the rotor end ring to extrude and shape the rotor end ring in a molten state. The pressure of the first shaping mold 1 can be adjusted to 20T, 35T or 40T according to the actual end ring size.

[0026] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first shaping die 1 is provided with grooves 2 corresponding to the end rings and through holes 3 connected to the grooves 2, and the shaft can pass through the through holes 3. The inner wall of the groove 2 is provided with first exhaust holes 4 along its axial direction, and the inner wall of the through hole 3 is provided with second exhaust holes 5 along the circumferential direction. The first exhaust holes 4 are connected to the second exhaust holes 5, and an exhaust channel 6 is formed between the first exhaust holes 4 and the second exhaust holes 5. During the extrusion process of the first shaping die 1, the bubbles in the rotor end ring can be discharged through the exhaust channel 6.

[0027] The rotor that has been shaped, extruded and exhausted is taken out of the extruder, and the burrs of the rotor are removed after the rotor end ring is cooled and shaped.

[0028] As a solution, the end rings at both ends of the rotor can be heated and extruded at the same time, that is, the rotor core part is clamped by a robot, and the rotor is transferred to a high-frequency heating circle for synchronous heating of the end rings at both ends, and then transferred to the extruder. The first shaping mold 1 is set in two, and under the drive of the first driving mechanism, the end rings at both ends of the rotor are synchronously pressed, and the two end rings are extruded, shaped and exhausted.

[0029] As another solution, the end rings at both ends of the rotor need to be heated and extruded separately. First, the lower end ring of the rotor is placed in the second shaping mold. Under the drive of the second driving mechanism, the rotor is transferred to the high-frequency heating circle, and the upper end ring of the rotor is heated to make it in a molten state. Then, under the drive of the third driving mechanism, the second shaping mold drives the rotor to move into the extruder. Under the drive of the first driving mechanism, the first shaping mold 1 presses the upper end ring of the rotor, extrude and shape the upper end ring of the rotor in a molten state, and discharges the pores and bubbles in the upper end ring of the rotor.

[0030] Afterwards, the rotor is taken out of the extruder by a robot, and the rotor is turned 180° to exchange the positions of the upper and lower end rings of the rotor. The upper end ring of the rotor that has been shaped, exhausted and cooled and finalized is placed in the second shaping mold, and the above steps are repeated, that is, under the drive of the second driving mechanism, the rotor is transferred to the high-frequency heating circle again, and the lower end ring of the rotor is heated to be in a molten state. Under the drive of the third driving mechanism, the second shaping mold drives the rotor to move into the extruder. Under the drive of the first driving mechanism, the first shaping mold 1 presses the lower end ring of the rotor, extrude and shape the lower end ring of the rotor in a molten state, and discharges the bubbles in the lower end ring of the rotor.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, after the motor rotor is manufactured, the dynamic balance of the rotor needs to be adjusted. The rotor is placed in a balancing machine for testing. The unbalance of the rotor is corrected according to the data measured by the balancing machine, so that the vibration generated when the rotor rotates is reduced to within the allowable range, and the manufacturing of the entire motor rotor is completed. The correction method can be the weight reduction method, which uses a drill to drill holes in the rotor end ring of the out-of-tolerance part to reduce the offset and reach the balance value.

[0032] The above describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. For ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the present invention, and these should also be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the present invention.
