[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, drive motors, as core components, are facing higher performance requirements, particularly in terms of high speed, high power density, and low noise and vibration. As the component in the motor that bears the greatest centrifugal force, the rotor's mechanical strength is directly related to its safe operation. Under high-speed operating conditions, the rotor core is extremely susceptible to severe centrifugal loads. If its structural design is not adequately adapted to these conditions, fatigue cracks and even fracture are highly likely to occur. Therefore, improving the strength and stability of the rotor core structure has become a key focus of the industry.

[0003] Existing technologies often use high-strength stamping materials to enhance structural performance. While effective, this often leads to increased costs and can affect the motor's electromagnetic performance, thereby reducing power output and efficiency. In contrast, optimizing the stamping structure design to achieve stress dispersion and improve strength is a more cost-effective solution. Summary of the Invention

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present invention, "several" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] See also Figure 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution for a high-performance motor rotor core: a high-performance motor rotor core, comprising a plurality of rotor punchings 1, on which a plurality of magnetic steel slot groups 2 are distributed along the circumference;

[0035] The magnetic steel slot group 2 includes a single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202, at least a pair of V-shaped magnetic steel slots 201 and a stress reduction structure 204. The V-shaped magnetic steel slot 201 is opened on the rotor punching 1. A single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 is opened between at least a pair of V-shaped magnetic steel slots 201. The V-shaped magnetic steel slot 201 and the single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 are distributed in a centrally symmetrical manner. The single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 forms a magnetic isolation bridge 203 on one side facing the adjacent V-shaped magnetic steel slot 201. The single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 is provided with a bottom edge 2021 in the direction of the center of the rotor punching 1. The main radial center line of the magnetic isolation bridge 203 is perpendicular to the bottom edge line 2021 of the single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202. The stress reduction structure 204 is arranged at both ends of the single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 in a centrally symmetrical manner. It can be connected to or separated from the magnetic steel slot group 2 to reduce the stress concentration in the main radial direction at the magnetic isolation bridge 203.

[0036] It should be noted that the main radial center line refers to a reference line that is perpendicular to the center position of the magnetic isolation bridge 203 and parallel to the surface of the rotor punching 1 where it is located.

[0037] In this embodiment, the stress reduction structure 204 includes a main groove 2041 and a secondary groove 2042. The main groove 2041 is opened on one side of the bottom edge 2021 of the one-shaped magnetic steel groove 202, and the secondary groove 2042 is opened between the main groove 2041 and the one-shaped magnetic steel groove 202, and is used to connect the main groove 2041 with the one-shaped magnetic steel groove 202. The width a of the secondary groove 2042 is ≥0.7 mm.

[0038] The main slot 2041 is provided with a protrusion 3 facing the center line of the first-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 .

[0039] The auxiliary grooves 2042 are disposed toward the side of the V-shaped magnetic steel groove 201 and are symmetrically arranged along the center line of the main radial magnetic isolation bridge 203 relative to the side of the V-shaped magnetic steel groove 201 .

[0040] A first boss 4 is provided at the connection between the first-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 and the auxiliary slot 2042 , and the width b of the first boss 4 is ≥ 0.5 mm.

[0041] In this embodiment, the stress reduction structure 204 may be further designed to be ear-shaped.

[0042] When the rotor punching sheet 1 of the ear-shaped stress reduction structure 204 is punched, for a single-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 , two small ears on both sides can be punched out by two small punches respectively, and the remaining portion can be punched out by one punch.

[0043] Through the above technical solution, the ear-shaped stress reduction structure 204 is arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner at both ends of the magnetic isolation bridge 203. The unloading structure formed by the main slot 2041 and the auxiliary slot 2042 can effectively guide and relieve the main radial stress in the magnetic isolation bridge 203 area during the operation of the motor, making the stress distribution more uniform and avoiding fatigue cracks caused by local stress concentration.

[0044] Compared with existing technologies such as Figure 5 Compared with the traditional slot structure shown in FIG, the present invention disperses the structural stress while maintaining the compactness of the magnetic steel slot structure, thereby improving the fatigue life and structural safety margin of the magnetic isolation bridge 203, thereby improving the power density and output torque of the motor.

[0045] In addition, the symmetrical design of the ear-shaped stress reduction structure 204 helps to make the electromagnetic field distribution more balanced, effectively reducing the electromagnetic harmonic content and improving the NVH performance (noise, vibration and harshness) during the operation of the motor.

[0046] Structural optimization also achieves a reasonable reduction and lightweight design of the core material, thereby reducing the overall weight of the rotor core without sacrificing performance, improving the dynamic response capability of the motor, and meeting the application requirements of high-performance and high-dynamic working conditions.

[0047] Example 2

[0048] like Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment is improved on the basis of embodiment 1, and the difference is that the stress reduction structure 204 is a unloading groove 5, and its edge contour is collinear or tangent to the extension line of the two end sides of the magnetic steel groove 202.

[0049] In this embodiment, the unloading groove 5 is in the shape of an island.

[0050] A second boss 6 is provided at the intersection of the two end sides of the first-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 and the bottom side 2021 .

[0051] The distance d between the island-shaped unloading groove 5 and the center line of the one-shaped magnetic steel groove 202 is greater than or equal to the distance c between the center line of the one-shaped magnetic steel groove 202 and the second boss 6 (d≥0.5c).

[0052] The distance between the ends of the V-shaped magnetic steel slot 201 and the island-shaped unloading slot 5 closest to the center of the core along the center line of the I-shaped magnetic steel slot 202 is greater than or equal to zero (e≥0).

[0053] The distance g between the extension line of the two end sides of the magnetic steel slot 202 toward the center of the core and the center line of the magnetic steel slot 202 is smaller than the distance f between the original side body and the center line (g≤f).

[0054] The solution and method proposed in the present invention are applicable to motor rotor punchings of any thickness, and are applicable to any rotor core, rotor core assembly, motor rotor, motor using the rotor punchings, and power assembly, vehicle, and equipment using the motor.

[0055] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are merely preferred examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Various changes and improvements may be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
