Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motors, in particular to an explosion-proof motor structure. Background Art
[0002] Compared with ordinary motors, the biggest feature of explosion-proof motors is that isolation surfaces are set between the joints of the junction box, base, end cover, junction box bottom and cover, etc., so explosion-proof motors have higher requirements for sealing.
[0003] In order to improve the sealing performance of explosion-proof motors, not only the matching area is increased, but also the matching precision between various components is increased. In the design of these parts with increased matching area, a series of sealing measures such as adding rubber sealing pads, O-rings and applying sealants are adopted.
[0004] When sealing explosion-proof motors, the most important thing is to strictly seal and isolate the junction box of the explosion-proof motor from the inside of the casing. This can not only meet the dust isolation requirements of explosion-proof motors, but also meet the waterproof standards. Explosion-proof motors have high requirements for internal materials. When designing explosion-proof motors, the junction box, end cover and base must be made of high-strength materials to ensure the stability of the internal structure of the explosion-proof motor and avoid excessive internal pressure in the motor due to unqualified parts and components, which may cause explosions and burst the casing of the explosion-proof motor. When selecting materials for explosion-proof motor parts, not only must the quality of the materials be strictly controlled, but the selected parts must also be subjected to pressure resistance tests. Only after passing the test can these parts be assembled into the explosion-proof motor.
[0005] Explosion-proof motors are often used in hazardous environments, such as areas with explosion hazards (e.g., chemical plants, oil fields, mines, etc.). These motors must be specially designed and manufactured to ensure safe operation in hazardous environments. In hazardous environments, motors may be exposed to extreme high or low temperatures; improper insulation or heat dissipation system problems may cause motor overheating or insufficient cooling; and in some industrial environments, dust and particulate matter may enter the motor and affect its operation.
[0006] In addition, the failure of the junction box to seal properly causes the discharge sparks generated in the junction box to come into contact with the flammable and explosive dust outside, leading to accidents, which is also a major factor in explosion-proof motor failure. The traditional seal at the shaft penetration adopts a labyrinth loop structure, using a labyrinth ring and an end cover to form a tortuous passage to prevent dust from entering the motor. However, this structure is difficult to process and requires high assembly precision. Especially for small motors without axial positioning, the axial clearance is difficult to ensure, which easily leads to friction failures between the labyrinth ring and the end cover. Therefore, it has certain limitations. Utility Model Content
