Description

[0002] A drum motor is a power drive device that combines a motor and a drum structure. Also known as an electric drum motor, it is similar to a regular motor, consisting of a stator and a rotor. Based on the principle of electromagnetic induction, when three-phase alternating current is applied to the stator windings, a rotating magnetic field is generated. This rotating magnetic field cuts the rotor conductors, inducing an electromotive force and current in the conductors. The rotor current interacts with the rotating magnetic field to generate an electromagnetic force, which in turn forms an electromagnetic torque, causing the rotor to overcome resistance and begin rotating. However, existing technologies have the following shortcomings in use:

[0003] Existing roller motors mostly use a connection method with two end caps, which results in a large amount of consumables for the motor, a cumbersome overall device, a large size, a heavy weight, and low efficiency.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 7 As shown, the encoder assembly includes a fixed bracket 8 and an encoder 9. The encoder 9 is mounted on the fixed bracket 8, which is mounted on the shaft 2 by two screws. The encoder 9 is used to monitor the position and speed of the rotor 1 in real time and provide feedback signals to the external control system to achieve precise control.

[0038] like Figure 3 As shown, several permanent magnets 4 are arranged at equal angles around the rotor 1, and a stable main magnetic field can be generated inside the motor through the multiple permanent magnets 4.

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, two end rings 5 ​​are fixedly installed on the left and right end faces of the stator core 3, and the two end rings 5 ​​are symmetrically distributed about the central axis of the stator core 3. Several guide bars 6 are arranged in a ring on the two end rings 5. The squirrel cage structure is integrally formed by casting aluminum. The squirrel cage structure integrally formed by casting aluminum can realize the self-starting of the permanent magnet synchronous drum motor, without the need for a frequency conversion system, reducing the space occupied by the equipment and facilitating practical use.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, a first annular groove 10 is provided on the shaft 2, and a first retaining spring 11 is engaged in the first annular groove 10. Two second annular grooves 12 are provided on the inner surface of the rotor 1 in a symmetrical arrangement. A second retaining spring 13 is engaged in each of the two second annular grooves 12. The two second retaining springs 13 are respectively engaged with the two bearings 7. The first retaining spring 11 is engaged with the right end face of one of the bearings 7. The left end face of one of the bearings 7 is in contact with the shaft 2. The right end face of the other bearing 7 is engaged with the inner wall of the rotor 1.

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, rotor 1 is cylindrical.

[0044] As shown in the figure below, after removing the end cap design, the temperature rise test shows that the stability of the motor roller during operation can be guaranteed. In the test, the current, temperature, dragging frequency and package weight were recorded under the dragging test. Two motor roller specifications were tested on a trolley.

[0048] 4. Durability test: The motor was tested under the condition of running at 5A for 72 hours without any faults.

[0050]

[0051] Specifically, in use, this integrated permanent magnet brushless drum motor uses several guide bars 6 to cut the magnetic field generated by the stator core 3 after it is energized. After the guide bars 6 induce an electromotive force, they move in the magnetic field to drive the rotor 1 to rotate. The squirrel cage structure, which is integrally formed by casting aluminum, enables the permanent magnet synchronous drum motor to start automatically without the need for a frequency converter system, reducing the space occupied by the equipment and facilitating practical use. In this application, the use of end caps has been eliminated. At the same time, the shaft 2 is hollow, which can effectively reduce the overall weight of the product, making it lighter and more convenient to use. By reducing the production of end caps, the production cycle can be shortened, production efficiency can be improved, and production costs can be effectively reduced.
