[0040] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. First, it should be noted that the directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inner, outer, top, and bottom mentioned or possibly used in this specification are defined relative to the structures shown in the accompanying drawings. They are relative concepts and may therefore vary depending on their location and usage. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.
[0041] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a winding assembly for an electric motor disclosed in this application is shown. The motor includes a motor shaft (not shown). The winding assembly 100 consists of a core 170, windings 180, an insulating cover 160, a connecting plate 110, a busbar 120, and an insulating adhesive container 130, etc. Figure 2 As clearly seen, the core 170 includes an annular portion 171 and a plurality of teeth 172 disposed around the center of the motor shaft, each tooth 172 extending radially from the annular portion 171. The winding 180 has a winding end 180a and is wound around each tooth 172 of the core 170 to form a winding unit. The insulating cover 160 at least partially covers the teeth 172 to isolate the winding 180 and the core 170. The connecting plate 110 is annular in shape and made of plastic, and is fixed above the insulating cover 160, wherein the connecting plate 110 is provided with a through hole 111. The busbar 120 is fixed within the connecting plate 110. Each busbar 120 has a first end and a second end. The connecting plate 110 does not enclose the periphery of the first end. The winding end 180a passes through the through hole 111 and is electrically connected to the first end. For example, the first end of the busbar 120 and the winding end 180a are connected by laser welding or other methods. The second end of the busbar 120 is used to maintain an electrical connection with the power terminal 150, which is electrically connected to the pins of the electronic control unit (not shown). The insulating adhesive container 130 is installed above the connecting plate 110 and has a receiving cavity 131 surrounding the peripheral space of the first end. The receiving cavity 131 is filled with insulating adhesive S, such as epoxy resin. After the insulating adhesive S solidifies, it covers the fixed connection between the first end of the busbar 120 and the winding end 180a, thereby sealing the connection between the first end of the busbar 120 and the winding end 180a. This completely isolates the fixed connection from the refrigerant and oil present in the motor to achieve strong insulation. Moreover, this installation process can be performed automatically and is suitable for automated production.
[0042] To facilitate the insertion of the winding end 180a into the connecting plate 110, the cross-sectional area of the through hole 111 of the connecting plate 110 gradually narrows along the insertion direction of the winding end 180a. For example, the through hole 111 can adopt a tapered design similar to a funnel shape.
[0043] In such Figures 1 to 4In the illustrated embodiment, the busbar 120 includes a portion fixed within the connecting plate 110 by plastic coating. The first end has a stepped, bent section such that it has a circular opening or a V-shaped opening away from the connecting plate 110, facilitating connection with the winding end 180a. Each tooth 172 extends radially inward from the inner side of the annular portion 171, and the first end extends at least partially radially outward from within the connecting plate 110.
[0044] In other optional embodiments, in conjunction with the above embodiments, the busbar 120 includes a first busbar 121, a second busbar 122, a third busbar 123, and a fourth busbar 124. The first ends 121a of the first busbar 121 and 122a of the second busbar 122 are arranged symmetrically around the center of the connecting plate 110 and are both positioned along a first direction on the plane of the connecting plate 110 (i.e., the first ends 121a of the first busbar 121 and 122a of the second busbar 122 are parallel to each other). The first ends 123a of the third busbar 123 and 124a of the fourth busbar 124 are arranged symmetrically around the center of the connecting plate 110 and are both positioned along a second direction on the plane of the connecting plate 110 (i.e., the first ends 123a of the third busbar 123 and 124a of the fourth busbar 124 are parallel to each other). The first direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The above design facilitates the demolding of the connecting plate 110 and the busbar 120 as a single unit from the circumferential direction.
[0045] Continue to refer to Figures 5 to 7 The insulating adhesive container 130 includes a substrate 132 and a surrounding plate 133 extending outward from the side of the substrate 132 away from the connecting plate 110, for forming a space for receiving insulating adhesive. For ease of manufacture, the insulating adhesive container 130 may be integrally molded from plastic.
[0046] It is easy to understand that a web plate 112 is also provided on the inner circumferential side of the connecting plate 110. The web plate 112 is provided with at least three positioning holes 113 for gripping the connecting plate 110, so that the robot arm can position the connecting plate 110 through the positioning holes 113, thereby realizing automated production and improving installation efficiency.
[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the winding assembly 100 further includes a terminal block 140 that accommodates the terminal block 150, and has a base 141 and a cover 142 that is insulated from the base 141. The base 141 is located between the motor shaft and the connecting plate 110 and between the motor shaft and the insulating adhesive container 130. Specifically, the base 141 of the terminal block 140 has a first sealing portion with a channel 143 for accommodating insulating adhesive, and the cover 142 has a second sealing portion extending to the channel 143. When the first sealing portion is filled with insulating adhesive, the first sealing portion and the second sealing portion are pressed together to achieve a good sealing / insulation effect. Both the first sealing portion and the second sealing portion can be made of plastic so that insulation is achieved by sealing with insulating adhesive.
[0048] like Figures 8 to 13 As shown, the insulating cover 160 includes an upper insulating member 161 and a lower insulating member 162. The upper insulating member 161 and the lower insulating member 162 are respectively provided with an outer end A, an inner end B, and a spacer body C connecting the inner end B and the outer end A at the opposite end face of each tooth 172 of the core 170. One of the upper insulating member 161 and the lower insulating member 162 is provided with a male end protrusion, and the other is provided with a female end cavity, so that the upper insulating member 161 and the lower insulating member 162 are inserted and fitted together, thereby forming an overlapping area in the circumferential direction of the upper insulating member 161 and the lower insulating member 162. The overlapping area is continuously arranged along the circumferential direction of each tooth 172. The upper insulating member 161 and the lower insulating member 162 can at least partially cover each tooth 172 to provide strong insulation, thereby preventing breakdown / creep phenomena between the winding 180 and the core 170 due to excessively close electrical clearance / creep distance.
[0049] Furthermore, in the overlapping area, the upper insulating member 161 is located outside or inside the lower insulating member 162, and the two are in tight, sealed contact to fully insulate the winding 180 from the core 170. A fixing pin 163 is provided on the top of the upper insulating member 161, and the connecting plate 110 is fixed to the upper insulating member 161 by thermal riveting via the fixing pin 163. The fixing pin 163 is provided with an interference rib 164 for interference fit. Additionally, the top of the upper insulating member 161 is provided with two grooves 165, and the two winding ends 180a of the winding 180 on the insulating cover 160 are respectively fixed to the grooves 165 and extend upwards from the grooves 165 parallel to the fixing pin 163. The fixing pin 163 is located between the two winding ends 180a.
[0050] Furthermore, according to this application, a motor is also provided, which may be a three-phase motor, comprising a U-phase, a V-phase, and a W-phase. The motor is provided with the aforementioned winding assembly 100.
[0051] Additionally, this application provides an on-board compressor equipped with the aforementioned motor and electronic control unit. The motor is located within a motor housing (not shown) of the on-board compressor and is driven and controlled by the electronic control unit. During operation, the motor housing contains a mixture of refrigerant and oil.
[0052] The foregoing has provided several specific embodiments to illustrate in detail the winding assembly for an electric motor, the electric motor equipped with the winding assembly, and the vehicle-mounted compressor equipped with the electric motor. These examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. Various modifications and improvements can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should fall within the scope of this application and be defined by the claims of this application.
