At the same time, the speed reduction mechanism, the driving mechanism, and the braking mechanism are all integrated inside the motor housing. On the one hand, it is not necessary to assemble the reducer, the driver, and the servo motor before use, saving construction time. On the other hand, the present invention has a high degree of integration and a small volume, and can be used in servo motor application scenarios with a small installation space.

[0028] As a further optimized solution, the motor housing includes an output shaft retainer 16, a cycloidal gear retainer 17, a housing body 18, a drive board mounting seat 19, and a rear cover 20 that are sequentially connected from top to bottom. The output shaft retainer 16, the cycloidal gear retainer 17, the housing body 18, the drive board mounting seat 19, and the rear cover 20 are fixedly connected.

[0029] As a further optimized solution, an installation cavity is circumferentially formed at one end of the housing body 18. The installation cavity is coaxially arranged with the housing body 18. The power mechanism includes a stator 6, and the stator 6 is circumferentially fixed on the inner side wall of the installation cavity. The stator 6 is coaxially arranged with the installation cavity. A rotor 7 is coaxially arranged outside the stator 6. The stator 6 and the rotor 7 are magnetically connected.

At this time, the teeth on the outer edge of the cycloid gear piece 3 mesh with the inner edge of the cycloid gear 4, thereby realizing the rotation of the cycloid gear piece 3. The rotation of the cycloid gear piece 3 drives the connecting pin 5 to move, and then drives the output shaft 2 to rotate. Through the setting of the cycloid gear piece 3 and the cycloid gear 4, the rotation speed of the output shaft 2 can be reduced and the torque output can be increased, ensuring the stability and accuracy of power transmission.
