Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of stepping motor rotor assembly, and specifically to a rapid press-in type stepping motor rotor assembly process. Background Art

[0002] Motors mainly include permanent magnet motors that use permanent magnets to establish magnetic fields and traditional electro-excited motors. Compared with the two, permanent magnet motors, especially rare earth permanent magnet motors, have significant advantages such as simple structure, reliable operation, small size, light weight, high power density, low loss, high efficiency, and flexible and diverse shapes and sizes of the motors. Therefore, they are widely used in almost all fields of aerospace, national defense, industrial and agricultural production, and daily life.

[0003] The rotor of an electric motor is an important component of the motor. At present, during the assembly process of the electric rotor, traditional component splicing and winding assembly are used, which will lead to low assembly efficiency. Moreover, the yield rate of the assembled products is low. Therefore, an improved technology is urgently needed to solve this problem existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a rapid press-in type stepping motor rotor assembly process to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A rapid press-in type stepping motor rotor assembly process, and the process of the assembly process is as follows:

[0006] Pour the magnetic ring into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl.

[0007] Pour the gear assembly into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl.

[0008] Adjust the amplitudes of the above two vibrating bowls on four vibration controllers correspondingly to ensure the normal movement of the magnetic ring and the gear assembly.

[0009] Clean the automatic machine and each tooling fixture used for assembly, and confirm that the tooling fixtures are complete and in good condition.

[0010] Place the material box corresponding to the magnetic performance of the magnetic ring assembly of the corresponding color.

[0011] After confirming that the above actions are correct, press the start button, and the automatic machine will automatically perform injection molding assembly and magnetize the assembled stepping motor rotor.

[0012] The assembled magnetic ring assembly will move to the track and then be conveyed into the placed material box to ensure that the track is clean and tidy.

[0013] Preferably, an optical detector, a material rejection device, and a return tray are provided at the discharge port of the vibrating bowl. The optical detector detects the placement posture of the motor assembly in the bowl and the appearance of the motor assembly.

[0014] The return tray is arranged below the material rejection device directly opposite. The optical detector detects the placement posture of the motor assembly. When the current motor assembly does not conform to the specified placement posture and the appearance of the motor assembly is incomplete, the material rejection device immediately ejects the motor assembly that does not conform to the placement posture by gas and drops it into the return tray.

[0015] Preferably, the vibrating bowl and the automatic machine are connected by an assembly component guide rail. The inner wall of the assembly component guide rail is finely polished. An auxiliary feeding air nozzle is installed in cooperation at the connection between the vibrating bowl and the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is installed at an angle of 30° with the edge of the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is embedded inside the assembly component guide rail.

[0016] A solenoid valve is provided in cooperation at the air duct connected to one end of the auxiliary feeding air nozzle.

[0017] Preferably, the magnetic ring needs to be demagnetized before being poured into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl.

[0018] Preferably, for the double insurance fixation of epoxy resin bonding + mechanical interference fit, the interference amount is controlled at 0.02 - 0.05 mm, and the curing temperature is processed by gradually increasing the temperature, with the temperature changing from 80°C / 2h → 120°C / 4h.

[0019] Preferably, when the stepping motor rotor is magnetized, the pulsed magnetic field intensity ≥ 2000 kA / m, the magnetic flux tolerance is ±3%, the Halbach array is used to optimize the magnetic field distribution. After magnetization, the magnetic properties of the rotor are detected. The surface magnetic field intensity is detected using a gauss meter (typical value 0.3 - 0.8 T), and the pole phase error ≤ ±0.5°.

[0020] Preferably, the stepping motor rotor is subjected to mechanical detection, with the axial runout ≤ 0.02 mm, the radial runout ≤ 0.015 mm, and the axial preload: 5 - 10 N (adjusted according to the bearing type).

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0022] (1) According to the size of the vibrating bowl, an appropriate amount of magnetic rings and gear components are added. In this way, the vibrating bowl can not only adjust the placement postures of the magnetic rings and gear components to the greatest extent, but also avoid wasting the utilization rate of the vibrating bowl.

[0023] (2) The vibrating bowl and the automatic machine are connected by an assembly component guide rail. The inner wall of the assembly component guide rail is finely polished, which can reduce the frictional resistance between the motor assembly component and the assembly component guide rail, enabling the motor component to move more smoothly.

[0024] (3) The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is installed at an angle of 30° with the edge of the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is embedded inside the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle has an auxiliary driving effect on the motor assembly component inside the assembly component guide rail. Installing the auxiliary feeding air nozzle at an angle of 30° with the edge of the assembly component guide rail makes the output air flow have a better auxiliary driving effect on the motor assembly component.

[0025] (4) The magnetic ring needs to be demagnetized before being poured into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl to avoid the adsorption effect between the magnetic ring and the metal vibrating bowl.

[0026] (5) The assembly process of this stepper motor rotor not only has good assembly efficiency, but also the product quality of the assembled electronic rotor is well guaranteed, and the assembly yield is very high. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0027] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0028] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0029] Please refer to Figure 1 , the present invention provides a technical solution: a rapid press-in type stepper motor rotor assembly process, and the assembly process is as follows:

[0030] Pour the magnetic ring into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl, pour the gear assembly into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowl, adjust the amplitudes of the above two vibrating bowls on the four vibration regulators respectively to ensure the normal movement of the magnetic ring and the gear assembly, clean up the automatic machine and each tooling fixture used for assembly, confirm that the tooling fixtures are complete, in good condition, place the material box corresponding to the surface magnetic performance of the magnetic ring component of the corresponding color. After confirming that the above actions are correct, press the start button, and the automatic machine will automatically inject and assemble, magnetize the assembled stepper motor rotor, and the assembled magnetic ring component will move to the track and then be transferred to the placed material box to ensure that the track is clean and tidy.

[0031] Check each vibrating bowl used for processing, clean the inside of each vibrating bowl, pour the magnetic rings for assembly into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowls. The magnetic rings need to be demagnetized before being poured into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowls to avoid the adsorption effect between the magnetic rings and the metal vibrating bowls.

[0032] Pour the gear assemblies into the corresponding clean and tidy vibrating bowls. According to the size of the vibrating bowls, add an appropriate amount of magnetic rings and gear assemblies. In this way, the vibrating bowls can not only adjust the placement postures of the magnetic rings and gear assemblies to the greatest extent, but also will not waste the utilization rate of the vibrating bowls.

[0033] Adjust the amplitudes of the above two vibrating bowls correspondingly on the four vibration regulators to ensure the normal movement of the magnetic rings and gear assemblies. An optical detector, a material rejection device, and a return tray are provided at the discharge port of each vibrating bowl. The optical detector detects the placement posture of the motor assembly in the bowl and the appearance of the motor assembly in real time.

[0034] The return tray is arranged below the material rejection device directly opposite. The optical detector detects the placement posture of the motor assembly. When the optical detector detects that the current motor assembly does not conform to the specified placement posture and the appearance of the motor assembly is incomplete, the material rejection device immediately ejects the motor assembly that does not conform to the placement posture by gas and drops it into the return tray, removing the motor assemblies that do not meet the required placement and those with appearance problems, so that the motor assemblies that meet the requirements continue to move orderly in the feeding track.

[0035] The vibrating bowl and the automatic machine are connected by an assembly component guide rail. The inner wall of the assembly component guide rail is finely polished, which can reduce the frictional resistance between the motor assembly and the assembly component guide rail, enabling the motor assembly to move more smoothly. An auxiliary feeding air nozzle is installed in cooperation at the connection between the vibrating bowl and the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is installed at an angle of 30° with the edge of the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle is embedded inside the assembly component guide rail. The auxiliary feeding air nozzle has an auxiliary driving effect on the motor assembly inside the assembly component guide rail. Installing the auxiliary feeding air nozzle at an angle of 30° with the edge of the assembly component guide rail can make the output air flow have a better auxiliary driving effect on the motor assembly.

[0036] A solenoid valve is provided in cooperation at the air duct connected to one end of the auxiliary feeding air nozzle. The solenoid valve can control the ventilation and air cut-off of the air nozzle, so that the auxiliary feeding air nozzle can eject air flow instantaneously. Sometimes, the instantaneous air flow can adjust the stuck materials, enabling the materials to readjust their postures after being impacted by the external air flow and then continue to be transported.
