Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0028] If certain words are used in the specification and claims to refer to specific components, those skilled in the art should understand that hardware manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. The specification and claims do not use differences in names as a way to distinguish components, but use differences in components' functions as the criteria for distinction. For example, "including" mentioned throughout the specification and claims is an open term, so it should be interpreted as "including but not limited to"; "substantially" means that those skilled in the art can solve technical problems within a certain error range and basically achieve technical effects.

[0029] See also Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present application provides a robot joint module 200 and a robot 300 equipped with the robot joint module 200.

[0030] This specification does not limit the specific type of the robot 300. For example, the robot 300 can be an industrial robot or a collaborative robot. The robot 300 includes a body 301, an execution end 303, and a robot joint module 200. The robot joint module 200 is connected between the execution end 303 and the body 301, and is used to drive the execution end 303 to move relative to the body 301. In some embodiments, the robot 300 may include a plurality of execution ends 303, and accordingly, the robot 300 also includes a plurality of robot joint modules 200 corresponding to the plurality of execution ends 303, and each execution end 303 is connected to the body 301 through a corresponding robot joint module 200.

[0031] Please also see Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the robot joint module 200 may include a motor 100 and an actuator 201. The motor 100 includes an output shaft 40, and the actuator 201 is connected to the output shaft 40. In some embodiments, the actuator 201 may be the output end of the robot joint module 200, for example, it may include an output flange, which is used to connect the elements driven by the robot joint module 200 (such as a turntable or a gripper, etc.), so as to transmit the movement of the robot joint module 200 to the desired scene. In other embodiments, the actuator 201 may include multiple execution bodies to achieve different functions.

[0032] This specification does not limit the specific type of the motor 100. For example, the motor 100 may be a servo motor, a stepper motor, a torque motor, etc. In this embodiment, the motor 100 is a servo motor.

[0033] See also Figure 4 In this embodiment, the motor 100 may include a housing 10, a motor stator 90, a motor rotor 80, a brake 50 and the above-mentioned output shaft 40. The housing 10 is provided with a housing chamber 12, and the motor stator 90 is disposed in the housing chamber 12 and connected to the housing 10. The output shaft 40 is passed through the housing 10. The motor rotor 80 is disposed between the motor stator 90 and the output shaft 40 and is non-rotatably connected to the output shaft 40. It should be understood that the "non-rotatable connection" between the motor rotor 80 and the output shaft 40 should be understood as that the motor rotor 80 and the output shaft 40 are relatively fixed, and the output shaft 40 can rotate with the rotation of the motor rotor 80.

[0034] One end of the motor rotor 80 is provided with a receiving groove 81, and the receiving groove 81 has a side wall 812 and a bottom wall 814. The side wall 812 and the output shaft 40 are arranged at intervals, for example, the side wall 812 surrounds the outside of the output shaft 40. The brake 50 is arranged in the receiving chamber 12 and at least partially embedded in the receiving groove 81. The brake 50 may include a brake stator 52 and a brake rotor 54. The brake rotor 54 is connected to the bottom wall 814. The brake rotor 54 is connected to the output shaft 40 through the motor rotor 80 to achieve synchronous rotation. It should be understood that the "rotation-stop connection" between the brake rotor 54 and the output shaft 40 should be understood as that the brake rotor 54 and the output shaft 40 are relatively fixed, and the brake rotor 54 can rotate with the rotation of the output shaft 40. The brake stator 52 is fixedly arranged in the receiving chamber 12.

[0035] In the motor 100, the brake 50 is at least partially embedded in the receiving groove 81 of the motor rotor 80, and the brake 50 and the motor rotor 80 are at least partially arranged in parallel in the radial direction of the output shaft 40, which realizes the parallel layout of the two to a certain extent. Among them, "the brake 50 and the motor rotor 80 are at least partially arranged in parallel in the radial direction of the output shaft 40" can be understood as: when projected along the radial direction of the output shaft 40 toward the same projection plane, the projection of the brake 50 and the projection of the motor rotor 80 coincide, and this projection plane is parallel to the axis of the output shaft 40. The brake rotor 54 is connected to the motor rotor 80 and is connected to the output shaft 40 through the motor rotor 80 to stop rotation, so that the brake rotor 54 directly acts on the motor rotor 80, the braking response is faster, and the compactness of the internal structure of the motor 100 is greatly improved, and the axial size of the motor 100 is shortened. As mentioned above, the motor 100 provided in the present application has a reduced axial size, a lower overall weight, and a higher power density.

[0036] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified or limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, it can be internal communication between two elements, or it can be only surface contact. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0037] In the present embodiment, the housing 10 is used to provide protection for the structure within the accommodating chamber 12, and the accommodating chamber 12 is used to accommodate other structures of the motor 100. The housing 10 is roughly cylindrical, and the accommodating chamber 12 passes through both ends of the housing 10 along the axial direction of the output shaft 40. In the present embodiment, the motor 100 may also include an end cover 20, and the end cover 20 is fixedly connected to one end of the housing 10, for example, connected to the end surface of one end of the housing 10 by screws. The end cover 20 may be provided with a mounting hole 22 for the output shaft 40 to pass through. The output shaft 40 passes through the housing 10 and extends out of the housing 10 through the mounting hole 22 of the end cover 20. The output shaft 40 is used to drive the actuator 201 to move (such as Figure 2 shown).

[0038] The motor stator 90 is fixedly connected to the housing 10 and rotatably sleeved outside the motor rotor 80. The present specification does not limit the specific structure of the motor stator 90. As an example, the motor stator 90 may include an iron core and a winding, and the winding is connected to a power supply and generates a magnetic field when powered. The magnetic field generated by the motor stator 90 interacts with the magnetic field of the motor rotor 80 to generate torque. The motor rotor 80 realizes mechanical output through the output shaft 40. The motor rotor 80 can be designed in a permanent magnet type, an AC induction type, etc.

[0039] The receiving groove 81 is provided at one end of the motor rotor 80 and is recessed relative to the end surface. The receiving groove 81 is provided in the motor rotor 80, so that the portion of the brake 50 embedded in the motor rotor 80 does not interfere with the magnetic circuit operation of the motor stator 90 and the motor rotor 80. The brake 50 is embedded in the motor rotor 80, which effectively utilizes the length space of the motor rotor 80, improves the compactness of the structure, enables the brake 50 and the motor rotor 80 to be arranged in parallel to a certain extent, shortens the axial dimension of the motor 100, and improves the power density of the motor 100.

[0040] This specification does not limit the specific positional relationship between the brake 50 and the motor rotor 80. For example, the brake rotor 54 is embedded in the receiving groove 81, or the brake stator 52 is located in the receiving groove 81. In some embodiments, the brake rotor 54 can be embedded in the receiving groove 81, and the brake stator 52 is arranged on the side of the brake rotor 54 away from the motor rotor 80 and outside the receiving groove 81.

[0041] In this embodiment, the brake stator 52 and the brake rotor 54 can be embedded in the receiving groove 81. Specifically, the brake stator 52 can have a first end 522 and a second end 523 opposite to each other. The brake rotor 54 is connected to the first end 522, and the brake rotor 54 and the first end 522 are both embedded in the receiving groove 81. The motor 100 may also include a first bearing 60, which is arranged between the second end 523 and the output shaft 40. The brake stator 52 and the brake rotor 54 are both embedded in the receiving groove 81, which effectively utilizes the length space of the motor rotor 80, improves the compactness of the structure, enables the brake 50 and the motor rotor 80 to achieve a parallel layout to a certain extent, shortens the axial dimension of the motor 100, and improves the power density of the motor 100.

[0042] This specification does not limit the implementation method of the brake 50 braking the output shaft 40. As an example, a bearing can be used to form a magnetic pole between the brake stator 52 and the brake rotor 54. The brake 50 also includes an elastic element. The working principle of the brake 50 is to achieve emergency braking by relying on the elastic potential energy of the elastic element when no power is supplied. After the coil of the brake 50 is powered off, under the action of the elastic potential energy, friction is generated between the friction disk and the connecting plate and the armature, thereby braking the output shaft 40; after the coil is powered on, the armature is attracted to the magnetic roller under the action of the electromagnetic force, thereby loosening the friction disk and achieving the purpose of releasing the brake.

[0043] Please also see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In this embodiment, the second end 523 of the brake stator 52 is provided with a first positioning groove 521, and the first bearing 60 is at least partially accommodated in the first positioning groove 521. The first bearing 60 is located on the side of the brake 50 close to the end cover 20. The hole wall of the first positioning groove 521 is connected to the peripheral wall of the outer ring of the first bearing 60, and the end cover 20 fits the brake stator 52 and abuts against the end face of the outer ring of the first bearing 60. The brake 50 and the end cover 20 jointly limit the first bearing 60, improve the compactness of the structure, reduce the thickness requirement of the end cover 20, thereby reducing the thickness and weight of the end cover 20, and improving the power density of the motor 100.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first bearing 60 is completely contained in the first positioning groove 521, and the end cover 20 is superimposed on the end face of the brake stator 52 and abuts against the end face of the outer ring of the first bearing 60. The brake stator 52 limits the radial displacement of the first bearing 60, and the end cover 20 limits the axial displacement of the first bearing 60. The brake 50 and the first bearing 60 are arranged in parallel, which shortens the axial dimension of the motor 100. The end cover 20 only limits the first bearing 60 in the axial direction, reducing the requirement for the thickness of the end cover 20, thereby reducing the thickness and weight of the end cover 20 and improving the power density of the motor 100. The brake stator 52 and the end cover 20 jointly define a bearing chamber for limiting the first bearing 60, which improves the installation stability of the first bearing 60.

[0045] In other embodiments, the first bearing 60 can be partially accommodated in the first positioning groove 521. A second positioning groove 23 is provided on the side of the end cover 20 facing the brake 50, and the second positioning groove 23 surrounds the outside of the mounting hole 22. The second positioning groove 23 has a peripheral wall and a bottom wall that intersect, and the peripheral wall of the second positioning groove 23 is substantially flush with the inner wall of the first positioning groove 521. One end of the first bearing 60 is accommodated in the first positioning groove 521, and the other end is accommodated in the second positioning groove 23, and the bottom wall of the second positioning groove 23 abuts against the end face of the outer ring of the first bearing 60. The peripheral wall of the brake stator 52 and the second positioning groove 23 jointly limit the radial displacement of the first bearing 60, and the bottom wall of the second positioning groove 23 limits the axial displacement of the first bearing 60. The first bearing 60 and the brake 50 are arranged in series and parallel, which shortens the axial dimension of the motor 100. The end cover 20 and the brake 50 jointly limit the first bearing 60, reducing the requirement for the thickness of the end cover 20, thereby reducing the thickness and weight of the end cover 20 and improving the power density of the motor 100. The brake stator 52 and the end cover 20 jointly define a bearing chamber for limiting the first bearing 60, thereby improving the installation stability of the first bearing 60.

[0046] In this embodiment, the brake stator 52 may include a stator body 525 and a limiting portion 527. The first positioning groove 521 is provided in the stator body 525. The limiting portion 527 is provided on the hole wall of the first positioning groove 521 and protrudes relative to the hole wall. The limiting portion 527 abuts against the side of the outer ring of the first bearing 60 away from the end cover 20, so as to limit the axial displacement of the first bearing 60 together with the end cover 20. The limiting portion 527 abuts against the outer ring of the first bearing 60 so that the other part of the bottom wall of the first positioning groove 521 is spaced from the inner ring of the first bearing 60, thereby avoiding the influence on the relative movement of the inner and outer rings of the first bearing 60. The brake stator 52 limits the radial displacement of the first bearing 60 through the side wall of the first positioning groove 521 and limits the axial displacement of the first bearing 60 through the limiting portion 527, thereby improving the installation stability of the first bearing 60.

[0047] The output shaft 40 may include a shaft body 41 and a shaft shoulder 43, wherein the shaft body 41 is provided through the housing 10 and the end cover 20. The shaft shoulder 43 is formed on the peripheral wall of the shaft body 41 and protrudes relative to the peripheral wall of the shaft body 41. The shaft shoulder 43 is located in the first positioning groove 521 and abuts against the end of the inner ring of the first bearing 60 away from the end cover 20. The shaft shoulder 43 and the limiting portion 527 are spaced apart in the radial direction of the output shaft 40. The shaft shoulder 43 and the end cover 20 jointly limit the axial displacement of the first bearing 60, further improving the installation stability of the first bearing 60.

[0048] Please also see Figure 4 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the brake rotor 54 is connected to the bottom wall 814 of the motor rotor 80, and the brake rotor 54 may include a friction plate 541 and a spring plate 543, and the spring plate 543 is connected between the friction plate 541 and the bottom wall 814. When the electromagnet of the brake stator 52 is not energized, the elastic member of the brake stator 52 pushes the armature to squeeze the friction plate 541, and the friction force is used to limit the rotation of the friction plate 541, thereby braking the output shaft 40 through the motor rotor 80. When the electromagnet of the brake stator 52 is energized, the brake stator 52 relaxes the restriction on the friction plate 541, and the motor rotor 80 drives the friction plate 541 and the output shaft 40 to rotate synchronously.

[0049] The spring sheet 543 is arranged between the friction sheet 541 and the motor rotor 80, and plays a buffering role when the friction sheet 541 brakes the motor rotor 80, reduces the wear between the friction sheet 541 and the motor rotor 80, and improves the service life of the parts. This specification does not limit the specific connection method between the friction sheet 541 and the spring sheet 543. For example, the friction sheet 541 and the spring sheet 543 can be connected by fasteners such as pins and screws, or can be connected by gluing. In this embodiment, the motor 100 can also include a first fastener 545, which is inserted into the friction sheet 541 and the spring sheet 543 and fixedly connects the two. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the first fastener 545. The first fastener 545 can be a connecting member such as a screw, a bolt, a pin, or a bonding material such as an adhesive. In this embodiment, the first fastener 545 is a connecting pin.

[0050] The bottom wall 814 is provided with a clearance hole 8141, which is a countersunk hole that is recessed relative to the end surface of the bottom wall 814. The brake rotor 54 is connected to the bottom wall 814, and one end of the first fastener 545 protruding from the spring sheet 543 is accommodated in the clearance hole 8141. The friction plate 541 is provided with a through hole for the second fastener 547 to pass through. One end of the first fastener 545 is sunk into the clearance hole 8141, and the other end is sunk into the through hole on the friction plate 541, so that the axial length dimension of the motor 100 is not occupied, thereby reducing the overall weight of the motor 100.

[0051] This specification does not limit the specific connection method between the brake rotor 54 and the motor rotor 80. For example, the brake rotor 54 and the motor rotor 80 can be connected by fasteners such as pins and screws, or can be connected by gluing or magnetic attraction. In this embodiment, the motor 100 can also include a second fastener 547. The second fastener 547 is inserted through the friction plate 541 and the spring plate 543 and connected to the motor rotor 80. This specification does not limit the specific structure of the second fastener 547. The second fastener 547 can be a connecting member such as a screw, a bolt, a pin, or an adhesive material such as an adhesive. In this embodiment, the second fastener 547 is a connecting screw. In this embodiment, a connecting hole 8143 is also provided on the end surface of the bottom wall 814. The connecting hole 8143 is a threaded hole, and an internal thread is provided on the hole wall. One end of the second fastener 547 protruding from the spring sheet 543 is embedded in the connection hole 8143 and is threadedly connected to the motor rotor 80 through the connection hole 8143, thereby achieving a non-rotating connection between the brake rotor 54 and the motor rotor 80.

[0052] The brake rotor 54 is connected to the motor rotor 80 through the second fastener 547, and is connected to the output shaft 40 through the motor rotor 80 to prevent rotation. Compared with a motor in which the brake rotor 54 is directly connected to the output shaft 40 to prevent rotation, the axial dimension of the motor 100 is shortened, the power density of the motor 100 is improved, and the number of parts of the motor 100 is reduced, further reducing the overall weight of the motor 100. In addition, the second fastener 547 and the first fastener 545 are both embedded in the motor rotor 80, further shortening the axial dimension of the motor 100.

[0053] In this embodiment, the motor 100 may further include an output flange 30 and a second bearing 70. The output flange 30 is fixedly connected to the end of the housing 10 away from the end cover 20, for example, fixedly connected to the end surface of the housing 10 by screws. Similar to the end cover 20, the output flange 30 is also provided with a mounting hole for the output shaft 40 to pass through, and the output shaft 40 is passed through the mounting hole of the output flange 30. The second bearing 70 is arranged between the output flange 30 and the output shaft 40. Specifically, the second bearing 70 is sleeved outside the output shaft 40 and at least partially accommodated in the output flange 30. The output flange 30 is provided with a mounting groove 32 on the side facing the end cover 20, and the second bearing 70 is accommodated in the mounting groove 32. The peripheral wall of the mounting groove 32 is connected to the outer peripheral wall of the second bearing 70. In some embodiments, the output shaft 40 may also be provided with a shoulder for limiting the second bearing 70. For example, the shoulder may be abutted against one end of the inner ring of the second bearing 70. For details, please refer to the description of the shoulder 43 above, which will not be repeated here.

[0054] In the present application, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present application, "plurality" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
