The motor assembly is now complete.
[0043] Working principle: The magnetic sleeve is fitted onto the stator assembly, and the magnetic ring corresponds to the iron core winding of the stator assembly. Since the magnetic sleeve is outside the stator assembly, it exerts a greater centrifugal force on the shaft, resulting in a higher shaft speed and efficiency improvement. This helps to increase the shaft speed, thereby accelerating the impeller rotation and improving the fan vacuum. The impeller has more than nine blades, resulting in more stable fluid control and higher fluid efficiency. Overall, this structure can increase the vacuum of the turbine fan to 30–35 kPa.
[0044] Traditional solutions employ either adhesive bonding between the shaft and the bearing inner ring or an interference fit between the shaft and the bearing inner ring. However, both of these methods have problems when operating at high speeds and high vacuum levels.
[0045] Adhesive bonding: When the motor is running at high speed, the high temperature generated by the bearing causes the adhesive between the shaft and the inner wall of the bearing to fail due to the high temperature. The failed adhesive will cause the bearing to fail and the product to become noisier when the motor is running at high speed, which will eventually lead to product failure.
[0046] Interference fit: In the assembly of shafts and bearings, it is difficult to control the interference amount when using an interference fit. Excessive interference force often occurs during assembly, causing the inner ring of the support to expand outwards, leading to bearing damage. Insufficient interference amount results in an unreliable connection, causing the shaft to wobble within the bearing, generating noise and vibration, and ultimately leading to product failure.
[0047] This patented solution employs a clearance fit between the shaft and the bearing inner ring. The shaft machining accuracy is controlled within 2.993±0.001 mm, and the bearing inner ring accuracy is 4 to 2.995 mm, ensuring that the two are in a clearance fit. Under this clearance fit, the outer diameter of the shaft and the inner ring of the bearing naturally form a wedge-shaped structure. Figure 17 The dashed line divides the 50mm gap into an upper and lower section, with the lower section being wedge-shaped. The shaft rotates at high speed driven by the motor. During operation, the wedge-shaped gap between the shaft and the inner ring of the bearing creates a state similar to a pneumatic suspension bearing, significantly improving the motor's operational stability and completely avoiding issues related to adhesive fits and interference fits. Simultaneously, the pneumatic suspension bearing configuration reduces bearing friction, improving the efficiency of the entire operating system.
[0048] The traditional scheme is that the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring, i.e. the magnetic conductive body, are matched by using adhesive, however, the adhesive matching makes a certain gap exist between the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring, in the process of high-speed running of the motor (≥80000 rpm), the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring are subjected to a huge centrifugal force F2, since the gap exists between the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring, and the strength of the magnetic ring is not as high as that of the magnetic conductive ring (metal part), the magnetic ring is broken and burst in the running process, resulting in failure of the motor.
[0049] The technical scheme is that the interference matching between the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring is controlled in 0.05-0.1 mm, so that the magnetic ring is subjected to a certain inward extrusion force F1 in the initial stage, as shown in the figure, the inward extrusion force of the magnetic conductive ring to the magnetic ring offsets part of the centrifugal force F2 generated by the magnetic ring in the high-speed running, as shown in the figure, so that the actual force value of the magnetic ring in the running process is the difference between F2 and F1, the damage to the magnetic ring is greatly reduced, and then the stable work of the magnetic ring is ensured, and the failure of the motor is avoided. Figure 7 Figure 8 The technical scheme is that the interference matching between the magnetic ring and the magnetic conductive ring is controlled in 0.05-0.1 mm, so that the magnetic ring is subjected to a certain inward extrusion force F1 in the initial stage, as shown in the figure, the inward extrusion force of the magnetic conductive ring to the magnetic ring offsets part of the centrifugal force F2 generated by the magnetic ring in the high-speed running, as shown in the figure, so that the actual force value of the magnetic ring in the running process is the difference between F2 and F1, the damage to the magnetic ring is greatly reduced, and then the stable work of the magnetic ring is ensured, and the failure of the motor is avoided.
