[0028] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0029] refer to Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of the cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided in this application; Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided in the present application;
[0030] Figure 3 for Figure 2 Cross-sectional view of the middle AA part; Figure 4 An exploded view of the cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided for this application.
[0031] The present application provides a cast aluminum rotor of an induction motor, which mainly includes a punching lamination 2, a first end plate 1 and a second end plate 3, a ventilation assembly 4 and a plurality of copper sleeves 5. The punching lamination 2 is formed by overlapping a plurality of punching laminations, and a plurality of rotor slots 21 distributed circumferentially are arranged on the end face of each punching lamination. The first end plate 1 is mounted on the front end face of the punching lamination 2, and the second end plate 3 is mounted on the rear end face of the punching lamination 2. The first end plate 1 is specifically a DE end plate (driving end plate), and the second end plate 3 is specifically an NDE end plate (non-driving end plate). The ventilation assembly 4 is arranged in the ventilation passage of the stacked segments of the punching lamination 2, and is mounted on a de-coated punching lamination of the punching lamination 2. Preferably, the ventilation assembly 4 is welded and connected to the de-coated surface of the punching lamination.
[0032] The shape and length of the copper sleeve 5 are determined according to the size of the rotor slot 21 of the punching sheet stack 2. After the punching sheet stack 2 is assembled with the first end plate 1 and the second end plate 3, each copper sleeve 5 is correspondingly inserted into each rotor slot 21 of the punching sheet stack 2. When casting aluminum, the aluminum liquid is poured into the copper sleeve 5 to form a cast aluminum rotor.
[0033] The steps for assembling the cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided by the present application are as follows:
[0034] Step 1: Arrange the ventilation assembly 4 in the overlapping segmented ventilation ducts according to the actual number of ventilation ducts of the rotor;
[0035] Step 2: Assemble the first end plate 1, the punching sheet stack 2 and the second end plate 3 into one piece by using a tool to maintain pressure;
[0036] Step 3: insert the copper sleeve 5 into each rotor slot 21;
[0037] Step 4: Install the above-assembled overall structure with the aluminum casting mold, heat it and pour aluminum liquid to form Figure 5 The induction motor shown has a cast aluminum rotor.
[0038] The present application forms a new cast aluminum rotor structure by embedding a copper sleeve 5 that matches the slot type of the rotor slot 21 in the rotor core, inserting the copper sleeve 5 into the rotor slot 21 before casting aluminum, and then pouring aluminum liquid, which can ensure that aluminum does not leak, and at the same time reduce the mold development of the punching structure, saving the mold investment cost. In addition, the ventilation and heat dissipation area is increased, the flow resistance is reduced, and the heat dissipation capacity of the motor is significantly improved. The motor power can be increased under the same specifications, achieving the technical effect of reducing costs. In addition, in terms of electrical performance, since the surface of the rotor guide bar contacts the copper sleeve 5, according to the skin effect principle, under the power supply of a pulse power supply with good power quality, the current heat loss caused by the rotor harmonic current in the area adjacent to the slot will be significantly reduced. In addition to the above-mentioned heat loss, the loss caused by the rotor harmonic current in the upper cage guide bar with very small resistance will also be reduced, thereby improving the overall efficiency of the motor with the same specifications.
[0039] The copper sleeve 5 in the present application is preferably, but not limited to, pear-shaped, oval, waist-shaped, rectangular, or trapezoidal. The pear-shaped refers to Figure 3 The arc-shaped structure shown in FIG.
[0040] Furthermore, a flange is provided at each of the front and rear ends of the copper sleeve 5, and the outer edge diameter of the flange is larger than the outer diameter of the copper sleeve 5. This arrangement can reduce the gap between the aluminum end ring 6, especially at the high temperature of aluminum liquid casting, the aluminum end ring 6 and the copper sleeve 5 have different materials and thermal expansion occurs. Combined with the flange structure of the front and rear end surfaces of the copper sleeve 5, it can ensure that the aluminum liquid completely enters the copper sleeve 5, effectively preventing aluminum liquid leakage, thereby ensuring aluminum liquid casting efficiency. In order to ensure assembly reliability, the length of the flange should be less than or equal to half the length of the aluminum end ring 6.
[0041] In order to further improve the casting efficiency, several circumferentially distributed liquid inlets can be respectively opened at the front and rear ends of the copper sleeve 5. On the basis of feeding the material through the feed inlet in the middle of the copper sleeve 5, multiple circumferential small flow liquid inlets are supported to meet various liquid inlet structures and improve the casting efficiency. In addition, when pouring aluminum liquid, high-temperature aluminum liquid enters through multiple liquid inlets at the end of the copper sleeve 5, and can be circumferentially coated on the end face of the copper sleeve 5, reducing the temperature difference between the copper sleeve 5 and the aluminum end ring 6, thereby improving the casting efficiency.
[0042] It should be noted that the copper sleeve 5 in the present application is not limited to an integrated sleeve, but can also be obtained by multi-layer winding of thin copper plates and processing with expansion tools.
[0043] The above-mentioned ventilation assembly 4 includes a plurality of outer ring ventilation components 41 and a plurality of inner ring ventilation components 42. The outer ring ventilation components 41 and the inner ring ventilation components 42 are distributed circumferentially. The inner ring ventilation components 42 are arranged on the inner ring of the outer ring ventilation components 41. The ventilation components arranged in the inner and outer rings can increase the heat dissipation area and improve the heat dissipation performance of the rotor and the entire machine.
[0044] The outer ring ventilation component 41 and the inner ring ventilation component 42 are preferably but not limited to ventilation channel steels. Since channel steels are widely available and have their own guide groove structure, costs can be reduced.
[0045] The cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided in the present application can avoid leakage of aluminum liquid and prevent the risk of aluminum leakage in the rotor cast aluminum, while increasing the area of the rotor radial ventilation duct, improving the efficiency of the motor rotor and reducing production costs.
[0046] In addition, the present application also provides an induction motor including an induction motor cast aluminum rotor, which significantly improves the overall performance of the induction motor, has stable and reliable performance, reduces maintenance costs, and extends the service life of the induction motor.
[0047] It should be noted that, in this specification, relational terms such as first and second are merely used to distinguish one entity from other entities, but do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities.
[0048] The induction motor and the cast aluminum rotor of the induction motor provided by the present application are introduced in detail above. Specific examples are used in this article to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The description of the above embodiments is only used to help understand the method and core idea of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, without departing from the principles of the present application, several improvements and modifications can be made to the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
