[0053] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended only to explain the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0054] Reference below Figures 1-9 A linear motor 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0055] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the linear motor 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: a primary component 10 and a conductive component 20 .

[0056] The primary assembly 10 includes a core shaft 11 and a winding 12. The winding 12 is disposed on the core shaft 11. That is, the core shaft 11 passes through the winding 12. The core shaft 11 defines a receiving chamber 111. One end of the receiving chamber 111 is open. Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The upper end of the accommodating chamber 111 is open.

[0057] At least a portion of the conductive component 20 is disposed within the accommodating chamber 111. In some embodiments of the present application, the entire structure of the conductive component 20 is disposed within the accommodating chamber 111. In some embodiments of the present application, a portion of the conductive component 20 is disposed within the accommodating chamber 111, another portion of the conductive component 20 is disposed outside the accommodating chamber 111, and another portion of the conductive component 20 extends from the upper end of the accommodating chamber 111.

[0058] The conductive component 20 is fixedly connected to the core shaft 11. As some embodiments of the present application, the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11 can be fixedly connected by means of, but not limited to, screw connection, clip connection, etc.

[0059] The conductive component 20 is electrically connected to the winding 12 and the motor controller, that is, the conductive component 20 is electrically connected to the winding 12, and the conductive component 20 is electrically connected to the motor controller. As some embodiments of the present application, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 The Z direction shown in FIG), one end of the conductive component 20 is electrically connected to the winding 12, and the other end of the conductive component 20 is electrically connected to the motor controller. As a specific embodiment of the present application, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 In the Z direction shown in the figure), the lower end of the conductive component 20 (i.e., the end of the conductive component 20 relatively close to the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111) is electrically connected to the winding 12, and the upper end of the conductive component 20 (i.e., the end of the conductive component 20 relatively far from the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111) is electrically connected to the motor controller.

[0060] By fixedly connecting the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11, the conductive component 20 can be firmly installed, and the amplitude of the conductive component 20 shaking relative to the core shaft 11 during use can be reduced. The conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11 can even be kept relatively still under most usage conditions, thereby making the connection between the conductive component 20 and the motor controller stable, and making the connection between the conductive component 20 and the winding 12 stable, thereby enabling the linear motor 100 to work normally even under harsh road conditions.

[0061] Therefore, by setting the conductive component 20 and fixing the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11, the conductive component 20 can be firmly installed, thereby making the connection between the conductive component 20 and the motor controller stable, and making the connection between the linear motor 100 and the motor controller stable, which is beneficial to improving the safety and reliability of the use of the linear motor 100. Moreover, by arranging at least part of the conductive component 20 in the accommodating chamber 111, it is beneficial to improve the space utilization, thereby facilitating the miniaturization design of the linear motor 100.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, the conductive component 20 is fixedly connected to the core shaft 11 by a connector. In some embodiments of the present application, the connector can be configured as a screw connector, for example, the connector can be configured as a bolt, and the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11 can be fixedly connected by the bolt, for example Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the conductive component 20 can have a first mounting hole 2112, and the core shaft 11 can have a second mounting hole 1121. Bolts can be inserted into the first mounting hole 2112 and the second mounting hole 1121 to securely connect the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11. In some embodiments of the present application, the second mounting hole 1121 can be configured as a threaded hole. This configuration can simplify the installation and removal of the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11, reducing the difficulty of assembly and removal of the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly and removal of the linear motor 100, thereby improving production efficiency and facilitating after-sales maintenance.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the core shaft 11 has a connecting protrusion 112 , which is located in the accommodating chamber 111 , and the connecting protrusion 112 is connected to the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111 , and the conductive component 20 can be fixedly connected to the connecting protrusion 112 .

[0064] One end of the connecting protrusion 112 may be connected to the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111, and the other end of the connecting protrusion 112 may extend toward the inside of the accommodating chamber 111. In some embodiments of the present application, the conductive component 20 may have a first mounting hole 2112, and the connecting protrusion 112 may have a second mounting hole 1121. Bolts may be inserted through the first mounting hole 2112 and the second mounting hole 1121 to securely connect the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11.

[0065] By providing the core shaft 11 with a connecting protrusion 112, the conductive component 20 can be conveniently fixedly connected to the core shaft 11. Moreover, by locating the connecting protrusion 112 in the accommodating chamber 111, the external space of the core shaft 11 is not occupied, which is conducive to improving space utilization.

[0066] As some embodiments of this application, Figure 6 As shown, the number of the connecting protrusions 112 can be set to multiple, for example, the number of the connecting protrusions 112 can be set to two. By setting the number of the connecting protrusions 112 to multiple, the installation firmness of the conductive component 20 can be improved.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, the connecting protrusion 112 and the core shaft 11 are integrally formed, that is, the connecting protrusion 112 and the core shaft 11 are a one-piece molded component. This one-piece molded component has high structural strength. By integrally forming the connecting protrusion 112 and the core shaft 11, the probability of separation of the connecting protrusion 112 and the core shaft 11 can be reduced. Furthermore, by integrally forming the connecting protrusion 112 and the core shaft 11, the integration of the core shaft 11 can be improved, which can simplify the assembly of the components of the primary assembly 10, thereby simplifying the assembly of the components of the linear motor 100, and facilitating improved production and assembly efficiency of the linear motor 100.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the connecting protrusion 112 includes a first sub-body 1122 and a second sub-body 1123, wherein one end of the first sub-body 1122 is connected to the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111, and the other end opposite to the first sub-body 1122 extends toward the inner side of the accommodating chamber 111, and the second sub-body 1123 is arranged at the other end opposite to the first sub-body 1122, that is, one end of the first sub-body 1122 is connected to the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111, and the other end opposite to the first sub-body 1122 is connected to the second sub-body 1123, and the conductive component 20 can be fixedly connected to the second sub-body 1123.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present application, the conductive component 20 may have a first mounting hole 2112, the second sub-body 1123 may have a second mounting hole 1121, and a connector (e.g., a bolt) may be inserted through the first mounting hole 2112 and the second mounting hole 1121 to securely connect the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11. This arrangement allows the second sub-body 1123, which is securely connected to the conductive component 20, to be positioned closer to the inner side of the accommodating chamber 111, allowing the connection between the connector (e.g., a bolt) and the conductive component 20 to be closer to the center of the conductive component 20, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the second sub-body 1123 is constructed as a cylinder, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The axial dimension of the second sub-body 1123 is greater than the axial dimension of the first sub-body 1122, that is, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 In the Z direction shown in the figure), the second sub-body 1123 is thicker than the first sub-body 1122. By constructing the second sub-body 1123 as a cylinder, it is beneficial to improve the connection stability between the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11. Moreover, by making the axial dimension of the second sub-body 1123 larger than the axial dimension of the first sub-body 1122, the matching area between the connecting member (such as a bolt) and the connecting protrusion 112 can be made larger, which is beneficial to further improve the connection stability between the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11.

[0071] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, at least a portion of the first sub-body 1122 is configured as an arc segment. In some embodiments of the present application, the entire structure of the first sub-body 1122 is configured as an arc segment. In some embodiments of the present application, a portion of the structure of the first sub-body 1122 is configured as an arc segment. By configuring at least a portion of the first sub-body 1122 as an arc segment, the structure of the first sub-body 1122 can be made reasonable. During the process of inserting at least a portion of the conductive component 20 into the accommodating chamber 111, the first sub-body 1122 can avoid the conductive component 20 and will not interfere with the conductive component 20. This can reduce the difficulty of assembling the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11, and is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11.

[0072] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The conductive component 20 has a connecting portion 221 at one end close to the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111 , and the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 is connected to the connecting portion 221 .

[0073] As some embodiments of this application, Figure 5 As shown, the conductive assembly 20 may include a conductive bar 22, which includes a connecting portion 221. The connecting portion 221 is located at one end of the conductive assembly 20 near the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111. The lead wire 121 of the winding 12 is connected to the connecting portion 221. By connecting the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 to the connecting portion 221, the winding 12 and the conductive assembly 20 can be reliably electrically connected. Moreover, by locating the connecting portion 221 on the conductive assembly 20 near the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111, the length of the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 is shortened, thereby reducing the cost required to produce the winding 12.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 is located radially outside the core shaft 11. In some embodiments of the present application, the winding 12 can be configured as a three-phase winding 12. In some embodiments of the present application, the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 and the connecting portion 221 can be welded together, which can ensure a reliable connection between the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 and the connecting portion 221. In some embodiments of the present application, the winding 12 can be configured as a six-phase winding 12.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present invention, there are three connecting portions 221, and the three connecting portions 221 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. That is, along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11, the angle between each two adjacent connecting portions 221 of the three connecting portions 221 is 120 degrees. In some embodiments of the present application, the winding 12 can be configured as a three-phase winding 12, and the three-phase winding 12 can have three lead wires 121. The three lead wires 121 of the three-phase winding 12 can be connected to the three connecting portions 221 respectively.

[0076] As some embodiments of the present application, the conductive component 20 may include three conductive rows 22 . The three conductive rows 22 may be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11 , and each conductive row 22 includes a connecting portion 221 .

[0077] This arrangement can make the arrangement of the three connecting parts 221 reasonable, and can facilitate connecting the lead wires 121 of the winding 12 to the three connecting parts 221 respectively.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present invention, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The Z direction shown in FIG), the orthographic projection of the connecting portion 221 is completely offset from the orthographic projection of the connecting protrusion 112. Specifically, a plane is set that is parallel to the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 In other words, the normal of the plane is perpendicular to the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3The orthographic projection of the connecting portion 221 on the plane is parallel to the Z direction shown in the figure, and the orthographic projection of the connecting protrusion 112 on the plane is completely staggered. In other words, the orthographic projection of the connecting portion 221 on the plane and the orthographic projection of the connecting protrusion 112 on the plane do not have an overlapping area.

[0079] In this way, when inserting at least part of the conductive component 20 into the accommodating chamber 111, the connecting portion 221 will not interfere with the connecting protrusion 112 provided in the accommodating chamber 111, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembling the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11, which is conducive to improving the assembly efficiency of the conductive component 20 and the core shaft 11.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the linear motor 100 further includes an electrical connector 30 , which is electrically connected between the corresponding lead wires 121 and the connecting portion 221 .

[0081] As some embodiments of the present application, the number of connecting parts 221 is three, and the three connecting parts 221 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. The winding 12 can be constructed as a three-phase winding 12, and the three-phase winding 12 can have three lead wires 121. The number of electrical connectors 30 is three, and each electrical connector 30 is electrically connected between the corresponding lead wire 121 and the connecting part 221.

[0082] In some embodiments of the present application, the electrical connector 30 may have two opposite ends, one end of which may be welded to the corresponding lead wire 121, and the other end of which may be welded to the connecting portion 221. By providing the electrical connector 30, the lead wire 121 of the winding 12 and the connecting portion 221 may be electrically connected relatively easily.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, the core shaft 11 has a connecting through hole 113 , and the electrical connector 30 is passed through the connecting through hole 113 .

[0084] Specifically, the connecting through hole 113 passes through the side wall of the core shaft 11, and the connecting through hole 113 is connected to the accommodating chamber 111, and the electrical connector 30 is passed through the connecting through hole 113, that is, the electrical connector 30 is set through the connecting through hole 113, and the opposite ends of the electrical connector 30 are respectively connected to the corresponding lead wires 121 and the connecting part 221.

[0085] As some embodiments of the present application, the number of connecting parts 221 is three, and the three connecting parts 221 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. The winding 12 can be constructed as a three-phase winding 12, and the three-phase winding 12 can have three lead wires 121. The number of electrical connectors 30 is three, and the number of connecting through-holes 113 is three. The three electrical connectors 30 and the three connecting through-holes 113 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. In other words, the three electrical connectors 30 are respectively inserted into the three connecting through-holes 113, and each electrical connector 30 is electrically connected between the corresponding lead wire 121 and the connecting part 221. As some embodiments of the present application, the three connecting through-holes 113 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. That is, along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11, the angle between each adjacent two connecting through-holes 113 of the three connecting through-holes 113 is one hundred and twenty degrees.

[0086] By setting the connecting through hole 113, the electrical connector 30 can directly pass through the side wall of the core shaft 11 to connect with the connecting portion 221 of the conductive component 20, thereby shortening the length of the electrical connector 30 and saving the cost required to produce the electrical connector 30. Moreover, it is convenient to connect the electrical connector 30 with the connecting portion 221 of the conductive component 20, which is beneficial to improve the assembly efficiency of the primary component 10.

[0087] As some embodiments of the present application, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The connecting through hole 113 is located at the bottom end of the accommodating chamber 111. In other words, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie, Figure 3 The connecting through hole 113 is located at one end of the accommodating chamber 111 close to the winding 12. By locating the connecting through hole 113 at the bottom end of the accommodating chamber 111, the position of the connecting through hole 113 can be rationalized, thereby further shortening the length of the electrical connector 30 and further reducing the cost of producing the electrical connector 30.

[0088] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the linear motor 100 further includes: a seal 40, which is sandwiched between the conductive component 20 and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111. As some embodiments of the present application, the seal 40 can be sleeved on the outside of the conductive component 20 and sandwiched between the conductive component 20 and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111.

[0089] In some embodiments of the present application, the seal 40 can be configured as, but not limited to, an O-ring, a V-ring, a U-ring, etc. By providing the seal 40 sandwiched between the conductive assembly 20 and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111, the probability of water vapor, dust, impurities, etc. entering the accommodating chamber 111 through the gap between the conductive assembly 20 and the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111 can be reduced, thereby improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the primary assembly 10, thereby improving the reliability of the linear motor 100.

[0090] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the conductive component 20 has an annular mounting groove 23, and at least a portion of the seal 40 is disposed in the mounting groove 23. The outer surface of the conductive component 20 can be recessed toward the inner side of the conductive component 20 along the radial direction of the core shaft 11 to form the annular mounting groove 23. The seal 40 can be constructed in an annular shape, and at least a portion of the seal 40 is disposed in the mounting groove 23. This arrangement facilitates the installation of the seal 40. Furthermore, during the use of the linear motor 100, due to the presence of the mounting groove 23, the seal 40 is less likely to shift in position, thereby improving the sealing reliability of the seal 40.

[0091] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 In the Z direction shown in the figure, the distance between the sealing member 40 and the end of the conductive component 20 away from the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111 is A, and the distance between the sealing member 40 and the end of the conductive component 20 close to the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111 is B. A and B can satisfy the relationship: A<B.

[0092] That is, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 The distance between the sealing member 40 and the conductive component 20 at one end away from the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111 is smaller than the distance between the sealing member 40 and the conductive component 20 at one end close to the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111. In other words, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 In the Z direction shown, the distance between the seal 40 and the upper end of the conductive assembly 20 is less than the distance between the seal 40 and the lower end of the conductive assembly 20. In short, the seal 40 is positioned relatively close to the upper end of the conductive assembly 20 (i.e., the seal 40 is relatively close to the end of the conductive assembly 20 that is away from the bottom of the accommodating chamber 111). This arrangement allows the seal 40 to be positioned in a reasonable position, significantly improving the dustproof and waterproof performance of the primary assembly 10, thereby facilitating improved reliability of the linear motor 100.

[0093] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-Figure 9As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the conductive component 20 has support ribs 25. By providing the outer peripheral wall of the conductive component 20 with support ribs 25, the structural strength of the conductive component 20 can be improved and the probability of deformation of the conductive component 20 can be reduced. Moreover, in some embodiments of the present application, at least one support rib 25 can abut against the inner wall surface of the accommodating chamber 111. The provision of the support rib 25 can enable the conductive component 20 disposed in the accommodating chamber 111 to be more accurately aligned along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e., the axial direction of the core shaft 11). Figure 3 The Z direction shown in the figure can reduce the probability of the conductive component 20 tilting.

[0094] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the support rib 25 is constructed as an arc-shaped structure. By constructing the support rib 25 as an arc-shaped structure, the structural form of the support rib 25 can be reasonable, and the support rib 25 can be adapted to the inner wall of the accommodating chamber 111.

[0095] The number of the supporting ribs 25 can be set to be multiple, and the multiple supporting ribs 25 can be arranged along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The support ribs 25 may be arranged in an intermittent manner along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie, the Z direction shown in FIG. Figure 3 The supporting ribs 25 are evenly spaced and arranged in the Z direction (as shown). By providing a plurality of supporting ribs 25, the structural strength of the conductive assembly 20 is further improved, and the probability of deformation of the conductive assembly 20 is further reduced. Furthermore, by providing a plurality of supporting ribs 25, the probability of tilting of the conductive assembly 20 is further reduced.

[0096] As some embodiments of this application, Figure 9 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the conductive component 20 may have a supporting rib 26, and the supporting rib 26 may be arranged along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The support ribs 26 extend in the Z direction (as shown), and the support ribs 26 can be arranged orthogonally to the support ribs 25. In some embodiments of the present application, the number of support ribs 26 can be multiple, and the multiple support ribs 26 can be arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. In some embodiments of the present application, among the multiple support ribs 26, at least one support rib 26 can be arranged orthogonally to the support rib 25. By providing the support ribs 26, the structural strength of the conductive component 20 can be further improved, and the probability of deformation of the conductive component 20 can be further reduced.

[0097] Moreover, as some embodiments of the present application, at least one supporting rib 26 can abut against the inner wall surface of the accommodating chamber 111. The arrangement of the supporting rib 26 can enable the conductive component 20 disposed in the accommodating chamber 111 to be more accurately aligned with the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e., Figure 3 The Z direction shown in the figure can reduce the probability of the conductive component 20 tilting.

[0098] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 6 As shown, the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 111 is C, and C can satisfy the relationship: 10mm≤C≤40mm. The accommodating chamber 111 can be constructed as a cylindrical cavity, and the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 111 can be any value between 10mm and 40mm. For example, the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 111 can be, but is not limited to, 10mm, 20mm, 30mm, 40mm, etc. This configuration can ensure a reasonable inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 111, allowing the accommodating chamber 111 to accommodate at least a portion of the conductive component 20, without making the inner diameter of the accommodating chamber 111 too large.

[0101] As some embodiments of the present application, the number of conductive rows 22 can be three, and the three conductive rows 22 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. Each conductive row 22 includes a connecting portion 221, and the insulating part 21 has three avoidance gaps 2122. The three avoidance gaps 2122 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the connecting portions 221 of the three conductive rows 22, so that the three connecting portions 221 are exposed to the insulating part 21, and the three electrical connectors 30 can extend into the avoidance gaps 2122 and be connected to the connecting portions 221 (for example, welded).

[0102] In addition, the insulating member 21 is connected to the connecting protrusion 112. As some embodiments of the present application, the insulating member 21 may have a first mounting hole 2112, the connecting protrusion 112 may have a second mounting hole 1121, and a connecting member (such as a bolt) may be passed through the first mounting hole 2112 and the second mounting hole 1121 to fix the conductive component 20 to the core shaft 11.

[0104] Such an arrangement can make the structure of the conductive component 20 reasonable, help reduce the occurrence of leakage accidents, and help improve the safety of the conductive component 20.

[0105] In some embodiments of the present invention, a plurality of conductive bars 22 are spaced apart along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11 .

[0106] In some embodiments of the present application, the number of conductive bars 22 can be set to three, and the three conductive bars 22 can be evenly spaced along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11. That is, along the circumferential direction of the core shaft 11, the angle between each two adjacent conductive bars 22 in the three conductive bars 22 is 120 degrees. Each conductive bar 22 includes a connecting portion 221. The winding 12 can be configured as a three-phase winding 12, and the three-phase winding 12 can have three lead wires 121. The number of electrical connectors 30 is three, and each electrical connector 30 is electrically connected between a corresponding lead wire 121 and the connecting portion 221 of the conductive bar 22. This arrangement can make the arrangement of the three conductive bars 22 reasonable, and can facilitate the connection of the lead wires 121 of the winding 12 to the three conductive bars 22 respectively.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the insulating member 21 includes a head portion 211 and a pin portion 212, and the insulating member 21 also includes a body portion 213, and the body portion 213 is connected between the head portion 211 and the pin portion 212. As some embodiments of the present application, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 The main body 213 is connected to the head 211 at one end, and the other end of the main body 213 is connected to the pin 212 at the other end. In some embodiments of the present application, the head 211, the pin 212, and the main body 213 are integrally formed, that is, the head 211, the pin 212, and the main body 213 are constructed as a single piece.

[0108] The conductive bar 22 includes a conductive head and a connecting portion 211. The conductive bar 22 also includes a conductive body connected between the conductive head and the connecting portion 211. As some embodiments of the present application, along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (i.e. Figure 3 One end of the conductive body is connected to the conductive head, and the other end of the conductive body opposite to the conductive body is connected to the pin portion 212.

[0111] As some embodiments of this application, Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the conductive component 20 may have an escape groove 24, and the escape groove 24 may be along the axial direction of the core shaft 11 (ie Figure 3 The avoidance groove 24 extends in the Z direction (as shown), and the avoidance groove 24 can be used to avoid the connecting protrusion 112. Specifically, when at least a portion of the conductive component 20 is placed in the accommodating chamber 111, the conductive component 20 slides from the open end of the accommodating chamber 111 into the accommodating chamber 111, and the avoidance groove 24 can avoid the connecting protrusion 112. In other words, the connecting protrusion 112 can slide within the avoidance groove 24, so that the conductive component 20 and the connecting protrusion 112 can avoid each other, thereby preventing the connecting protrusion 112 and the conductive component 20 from interfering with each other and affecting the assembly of the conductive component 20. Moreover, the provision of the avoidance groove 24 is also helpful in reducing the weight of the conductive component 20 and saving materials.
