Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of bearing component manufacturing technology, specifically a method for machining the inner ring of an insulated bearing in the field of new energy vehicles. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the global new energy vehicle industry, the performance requirements of drive motors, as the core power components of new energy vehicles, are continuously increasing, especially in terms of voltage levels. To meet the demands for higher range and power output, drive motor voltages have been gradually upgraded from the traditional 400V system to the 800V high-voltage system. However, the increase in voltage level directly leads to severe electro-corrosion problems for motor bearings: the shaft voltage generated during motor operation will form current through the bearings, causing damage such as electro-erosion pits and peeling on the bearing raceways and rolling element surfaces, significantly shortening the bearing's service life, and even causing motor failure, seriously affecting the operational safety and reliability of new energy vehicles. Therefore, effective insulation treatment of motor bearings has become a key technical requirement for the research and development and mass production of 800V high-voltage drive motors.

[0003] Currently, the industry's solutions for bearing insulation mainly fall into three categories: First, using ceramic balls to replace traditional steel rolling elements, utilizing the insulating properties of ceramic materials to achieve overall bearing insulation. However, ceramic balls are expensive and require stringent processing precision, which significantly increases the manufacturing cost of bearings. They also suffer from poor compatibility with steel bearing rings and insufficient impact resistance, making it difficult to meet the low-cost, high-reliability mass production requirements of new energy vehicles. Secondly, preparing an alumina insulating coating on the bearing ring surface to block the shaft current path requires complex processes such as high-temperature sintering and plasma spraying, resulting in long production cycles, low efficiency, and the coating being prone to cracking and peeling, leading to unstable insulation performance and difficulty in ensuring consistent insulation effects during mass production. Furthermore, the equipment investment and process control costs during coating preparation are also high. Thirdly, while coating the bearing surface with an insulating plastic layer using a plastic coating process is relatively low-cost, the plastic layer has poor temperature resistance and wear resistance, making it prone to aging and damage under the high temperature and vibration conditions of motor operation, resulting in a short insulation life. Moreover, it is difficult to ensure a tight fit between the plastic layer and the bearing ring surface during the plastic coating process, easily forming bubbles or gaps, which cannot meet the insulation strength requirements (especially DC breakdown voltage) under an 800V high-voltage system. Summary of the Invention
