DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of the present invention and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0037] Example 1
[0038] The load connection part of the motor is hereinafter referred to as the front part, and the electrical output part is hereinafter referred to as the rear part.
[0039] A specific embodiment of the utility model is as follows Figure 1-Figure 10 As shown, a water-cooled outer rotor flat wire winding motor is disclosed. The motor includes a motor stator assembly 204, a motor rotor assembly 201, a bearing 112 and a water cooling system. The motor stator assembly 204 is fixedly connected to any device on which the motor works, including an unmanned aerial vehicle, a passenger aircraft, a cargo aircraft, etc., and the motor stator assembly 204 is in a stationary state relative to the device. The bearing cover 111 and the outer ring of the bearing 112 are fixedly connected to the motor stator assembly 204, the motor rotor assembly 201 is fixedly connected to the inner ring of the bearing 112, and the motor stator assembly 204 can rotate around the axial direction of the bearing 112. The fixing method can be a mechanical parts transfer fixing method, or a direct fixing method. The water cooling system is arranged adjacent to the stator assembly 201 for cooling the stator assembly 201. When the motor is working, it is powered by an additional inverter or AC power supply. The permanent magnet assembly 117 in the motor rotor assembly 201 is pulled by the electromagnetic force of the assembly composed of multiple windings 104 in the motor stator assembly 204, driving the motor rotor assembly 201 to rotate and make the motor work.
[0040] See also Figure 1 , Figure 7-Figure 9 The stator assembly 204 of the motor includes a stator seat 110 , a core assembly 202 and a stator seal 103 .
[0041] The stator seat 110 may adopt a conventional stator seat structure in the prior art, and is used to fix and support the core assembly 202. A bearing hole is provided on the stator seat 110, and the bearing 112 is installed on the stator seat 110 through the bearing hole.
[0042] The core assembly 202 includes a tooth portion 101, a yoke portion 102, and a winding 104. The motor core assembly 202 is produced in a block manner, and is divided into a plurality of tooth portions 101 and a plurality of yoke portions 102. The tooth portion 101 and the yoke portion 102 can be composed of stacked solid or sheet-like objects, and can be processed by machining such as milling machines, wire cutting, etc. After the tooth portion 101 is embedded in the winding 104, it is fixedly connected to the yoke portion 102, and the connection method can be welding, gluing, or connection by a clamp.
[0043] Since the above manufacturing method no longer needs to consider the winding problem, the utilization efficiency of the gap between the slots can be improved. At the same time, the winding 104 is wound with flat copper wire, which has better conductivity and better slot fill rate than round wire.
[0044] The stator seal 103 is an annular seal and is disposed on the inner circumferential end surface of the yoke 102. The stator seal 103 cooperates with the yoke 102 of the core assembly 202 so that the coolant is sealed after entering the core assembly 202, thereby preventing leakage and causing corrosion to the winding 104.
[0045] See also Figure 2 The winding 104 is a spirally wound flat copper wire, which is different from the commonly used round copper wire in that there is no parallel winding and the winding is formed in one step. The winding 104 is fixed on the tooth portion 101 of the core assembly 202 of the motor, and the fixing method is clamp positioning, or glue, self-positioning and the like. When using a clamp for positioning, the first clamp 105 and the second clamp 107 are respectively fixed to the two ends of the tooth portion 101 in the axial direction by glue, welding and the like, and then the winding 104 is installed on the tooth portion 101. The winding 104 is positioned in the axial direction by the first clamp 105 and the second clamp 107 respectively fixed to the two axial front and rear end faces of the core assembly 202, and the positioning in the circumferential direction is achieved by the slot wedge 106 at the notch.
[0046] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 as well as Fig.10 As shown, the rotor assembly 201 includes a rotor yoke 108 and a permanent magnet assembly 117 , wherein the permanent magnet assembly 117 includes a plurality of permanent magnets 109 .
[0047] like Figure 6 As shown, the permanent magnet assembly 117 is surface mounted, using a Halbach array or a directly magnetized permanent magnet 109. The Halbach array can improve the positive linearity of the motor, reduce the starting torque of the motor, and reduce the torque fluctuation of the motor. Each magnetic pole of the permanent magnet assembly 117 can be composed of a whole or a plurality of permanent magnets 109.
[0048] Increasing the thickness of the rotor yoke 108 can reduce the rotor magnetic flux density and improve the power level of the motor at the rated working point. The rotor yoke 108 is composed of stacked solid block or sheet steel materials and can be formed by any conventional machining method.
[0049] In the motor of the present invention, the inner ring of the bearing 112 is fixedly connected to the rotor assembly 201 of the motor, and the bearing cover 111 of the motor is made of metal or non-metal, and is mechanically connected to the motor stator seat 110, or can be connected by welding or glue.
[0050] The bearing 112 is a cross roller bearing, which has the characteristics of small clearance and can bear various loads such as axial, radial, bending moment, etc. The motor of the utility model adopts a single bearing structure, which can save the internal space of the motor and make room for the motor controller.
[0051] Cross roller bearings can bear both axial and radial forces, and are smaller than double-row ball bearings with the same performance. They are cheaper than four-point load bearings and are a more balanced choice for single-bearing motors. The axial force of the misalignment between the core and the permanent magnet can provide the preload required by the bearing.
[0052] See also Figure 4 , Figure 5 The motor of the present invention further includes a water cooling system, which includes an input port, a flow divider component 203, a fluid groove, a winding sealing cavity and an output port.
[0053] The input port is arranged on the bearing cover 111 and extends in the axial direction to introduce the coolant into the motor. Figure 4 , Figure 8 as well as Fig. 9 (a)- Fig. 9 As shown in (d), it includes a plurality of flow dividers 114 with one inlet and multiple outlets, the inlet extending in the axial direction and connected to the input port; the outlet extending in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction and connected to the fluid grooves respectively. The fluid groove is arranged on the radial inner side of the yoke 102 and extends in the axial direction, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 The winding sealed cavity is a sealed cavity disposed inside the stator assembly 204, and the winding 104 and the tooth portion 101 are both located in the sealed cavity. One end of the sealed cavity is sealed by a part 113 at the front of the motor, and a stator end seal 115 is disposed at the other end, a circumferential seal 116 is disposed on the circumferential outer side, and a stator seal 103 is disposed on the circumferential inner side. The output port is disposed on the end face of the stator end seal 115.
[0054] Figure 4Schematic diagram of the flow of coolant. During cooling, the cooling fluid is input from the input port on the bearing cover 111, passes through the stator seat 110 and enters the shunt assembly 203. The shunt assembly 203 divides the cooling fluid into three paths and passes into the fluid groove on the radial inner side of the yoke 102, and then enters the winding sealing cavity of the stator assembly 204 from the fluid groove to directly cool the stator assembly 204. After that, the cooling fluid flows out from the output port on the stator end seal 115 to form a cycle. The coolant is sealed by the part 113 at the front of the motor, the stator end seal 115 at the rear of the motor, and the circumferential seal 116 to prevent the coolant from leaking.
[0055] The water cooling system directly passes the coolant into the winding for cooling, which has a stronger heat exchange effect and lighter weight than indirect cooling. The coolant can be ethylene glycol and water solution or pure water.
[0056] Compared with the prior art, the water-cooled outer rotor flat wire winding motor provided in this embodiment uses a block-type stator and a flat wire winding for the outer rotor motor, thereby improving the slot fill rate of the motor, reducing the copper loss of the motor, and improving the three-phase consistency of the motor inductance; adding a water cooling system using ethylene glycol hydrate solution for cooling the stator of the motor can greatly improve the rated power and peak power of the motor; using permanent magnets arranged in a Halbach array, the waveform of the motor back electromotive force is improved.
[0057] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
