[0002] Submersible electric pumps (SAPs) are highly efficient oilfield extraction equipment, and their submersible motors are the power source of the oil production system and a major energy-consuming component. Their performance directly affects the quality and lifespan of the unit and even the oil well, and also directly impacts crude oil production and various oil production costs. Submersible asynchronous motors, used for power extraction, suffer from high power consumption and low efficiency, severely impacting the economic benefits of oilfield extraction. Compared to submersible asynchronous motors, submersible permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) offer advantages such as high efficiency, high power factor, and no need for excitation. They align with the development concepts of environmental protection, energy conservation, and reduced consumption, and represent the future development direction for submersible motors.
[0003] The permanent magnet submersible motor has a slender structure, and its structural design is greatly affected by space constraints. The design, processing and assembly of the permanent magnet rotor is the most difficult process in the manufacturing process. The existing segmented permanent magnets have poor overall magnetic attraction strength and large eddy current losses. The submersible permanent magnet motor rotor has the problem of magnet demagnetization due to temperature, which affects the service life of the unit. Summary of the Invention

[0022] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, only the parts relevant to the invention are shown in the accompanying drawings.
[0023] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, some embodiments of the present invention provide a permanent magnet motor rotor, including a magnet 1, a rivet 2, rotor plates 3, and a baffle 4;
[0025] Magnet 1 is fixedly connected to rotor plate 3. Two adjacent magnets 1 are arranged in a V-shape. Baffle 4 is fixedly set at both ends of rotor plate 3. Riveting holes are opened inside rotor plate 3 and baffle 4 along the axial direction. Rivet 2 can pass through the riveting holes and rivet the rotor plate and the baffle 4 at both ends. Rivet 2 is a non-magnetic stainless steel guide bar riveting.
[0026] In specific implementation, the rotor 11 includes a magnet 1, a rivet 2, rotor plates 3, and a baffle 4. It adopts a "guide bar riveting-end clamping" rotor structure. Specifically, first, the rotor plates 3 are inserted into the mandrel fixture, one side baffle 4 is installed, the magnet 1 is installed, then the other side baffle 4 is installed and the baffle is clamped. Finally, the rivets 2 are used to rivet it.
[0027] like Figure 2 As shown, the included angle between the two magnets on the same side is close to 160 degrees, and the whole is set in a V shape. There are at least four rivet holes and rivets 2, and the four rivets 2 are distributed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the rotor inner hole 5.
[0028] By analyzing the rotor strength through finite element three-dimensional stress analysis and the influence of centrifugal force during high-speed rotation of magnet 1, a V-shaped built-in embedded magnet structure was designed to improve the stability of segmented permanent magnets. A dual fixing method of "guide bar riveting - end clamping" was adopted to solve the problem of poor overall strength of magnetic attraction force of segmented permanent magnets and improve the mechanical strength of rotor sections. According to the rotor magnetic field distribution diagram, the magnetic circuit channel of permanent magnet rotor was avoided. Holes were opened inside the magnetic poles and non-magnetic stainless steel guide bars were selected for riveting to reduce eddy current losses.
[0029] In some embodiments, a rotor inner hole 5 is provided in the middle of the rotor plate 3, and a keyway 6 is provided on the side wall of the rotor inner hole 5. At least three keyways 6 are provided, and the three keyways 6 are distributed at intervals. The keyway 6 includes a first keyway 61, a second keyway 62 and a third keyway 63, and the first keyway 61, the second keyway 62 and the third keyway 63 are distributed along the circumferential direction of the rotor inner hole 5.
[0030] In practice, a permanent magnet segmented skew pole assembly process was adopted. The rotor inner hole 5 is designed with three keyways 6, and the adjacent keyways are distributed at an angle of nearly 90 degrees.
[0031] In some embodiments, this application also provides a permanent magnet submersible motor, including a permanent magnet motor rotor, and further including a motor shaft 7, a retaining ring assembly, a rotor key 9, and a bearing assembly 10; the rotor key 9 is coaxially mounted outside the motor shaft 7, the rotor is disposed outside the rotor key 9, the bearing assembly 10 is sleeved on the motor shaft 7, and the retaining ring assembly is disposed near the bearing assembly 10. Specifically, the bearing assembly 10 includes multiple bearings, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the bearing is located near the end of the rotor key 9. The retaining ring assembly includes a first retaining ring 81 and a second retaining ring 82, which are respectively located on the opposite side of the bearing and the rotor key 9.
[0032] In practice, rotor key 9 sequentially fixes the second retaining ring 82, bearing assembly 10, rotor 11, and first retaining ring 81 to the motor shaft 7. The rotor 11 employs a "V"-shaped magnet structure to improve the stability of the segmented permanent magnets and reduce electromagnetic vibration and noise. A "guide bar riveting-end clamping" rotor structure is used, and each rotor is assembled onto the motor shaft 7 in a specific order using a segmented, skewed pole assembly method. Accurate magnetic field distribution is ensured by detecting the strong unipolar magnetism of the permanent magnet rotor.
[0033] In some embodiments, this application also provides a rotor assembly method for a permanent magnet motor rotor, comprising the following steps: S1, assembling a first rotor section by inserting a first keyway 61 into the motor shaft; S2, assembling a second rotor section by inserting a second keyway 62 into the motor shaft; S3, assembling a third rotor section by inserting a third keyway 63 into the motor shaft; S4, repeating S1-S3 sequentially to complete the assembly of the rotor assembly.
[0034] In practice, a permanent magnet segmented skewed pole assembly process was adopted. The rotor inner hole 5 is designed with three keyways 6. When assembling the first rotor section, the first keyway 61 is used to insert it into the motor shaft. When assembling the second rotor section, the second keyway 62 is used to insert it into the motor shaft. When assembling the third rotor section, the third keyway 63 is used to insert it into the motor shaft. The rotor assembly is completed in a cyclical manner according to the above assembly method. After the rotor is assembled, the magnetic pole polarity of each rotor section should be consistent to ensure accurate magnetic field distribution. This design can reduce eddy current losses.
