Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sensors, in particular to a sensor end cover and a sensor. Background Art
[0002] Nowadays, position and angle sensors such as magnetoresistive resolvers, transformer resolvers, and angular displacement sensors are widely used in electromechanical drive scenarios. However, these sensors are all electromagnetic principle-based sensors with a very weak working magnetic field, generally 1-10 mT, and are easily interfered by the electromagnetic fields emitted by external frequency converters or motor permanent magnets; this causes distortion of the output voltage signal of the sensor, ultimately increasing the electrical error of the sensor and even making it unable to work properly.
[0003] Conventional methods for sensors to resist electromagnetic interference include: increasing the installation distance of the sensor to increase the magnetic resistance of electromagnetic field transmission, which undoubtedly increases the installation space and limits the installation space for using the sensor; or adding a metal shielding cover for protection, which will increase the volume, weight, and cost of the sensor. Summary of the Utility Model

[0024] The present utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with preferred embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0025] It should be noted that the orientation terms such as left, right, up, down, top, bottom, etc. in this embodiment are only relative concepts to each other or are referenced based on the normal use state of the product, and should not be considered restrictive.
[0026] In order to solve the disadvantages that the working signal of the sensor is weak and vulnerable to strong external magnetic interference, the embodiment of the present utility model designs a sensor end cover. Referring to Figures 1-6 , the sensor in the sensor end cover of the embodiment of the present utility model includes a stator and a rotor. A stator skeleton 3 is arranged on the stator, and a coil winding is wound around the stator skeleton 3. The sensor end cover of the embodiment of the present utility model includes: a metal skeleton 1 and a plastic layer 2 covering the metal skeleton 1;
[0027] Referring to Figures 1-2 , the metal skeleton 1 includes a bottom 11 and an enclosing side wall 12. A through hole 111 is arranged at the center of the bottom 11. The diameter of the through hole 111 is larger than the outer diameter of the rotor (because the center position of the resolver is the rotor and there is a rotating shaft passing through, so the diameter of the through hole 111 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the rotor). The side wall 12 is used to cover the extended part of the coil winding. A fixing part is arranged on the inner surface of the side wall 12. When the metal skeleton 1 covers the end of the sensor, the metal skeleton 1 can be fixed to the stator skeleton 3 through the fixing part.
[0028] In this embodiment, the fixing part includes a buckle 121. A buckle groove corresponding to the buckle 121 is arranged on the stator skeleton 3. The buckle 121 can be buckled with the buckle groove to fix the metal skeleton 1 to the stator skeleton 3. The plastic layer 2 covers the metal skeleton 1 by spraying a non-metallic material or by injection molding to form an insulator. After the metal skeleton 1 is plastic-wrapped, the insulation and rust prevention functions of the metal skeleton 1 are realized, and at the same time, the winding is protected from damage. The metal skeleton 1 is made of silicon steel sheets with a thickness of 0.5 mm. In some embodiments, the material of the metal skeleton 1 is a soft magnetic material with high magnetic permeability and low resistivity. According to the principle of electromagnetic induction, a magnetic field induces a voltage field, voltage / resistance = current. When the resistance is small, the current is large, and the magnetic field energy can be effectively consumed.
[0029] The sensor protective end cover of this embodiment can be applied to position and angle sensors such as magnetoresistive resolvers, transformer resolvers, and angular displacement sensors to play an anti-electromagnetic interference protection role. These sensors are composed of a stator and a rotor, and a double-sided plastic skeleton is arranged on the stator by injection molding. The sensor end cover is installed on the plastic skeleton of the sensor. A groove (snap groove) structure is arranged on the plastic skeleton, and a protrusion (snap part 121) structure is arranged on the sensor end cover. The two form a snap pair and are connected and fixed to the plastic skeleton through the snap structure. Five snap parts 121 are circumferentially arranged on the inner surface of the side wall 12. The structure of the sensor end cover of this embodiment is a circular bowl-shaped structure, which can effectively wrap the winding extension parts at both ends of the stator. In this embodiment, a protrusion structure 13 is arranged at the connection between a part of the bottom 11 and the side wall 12. The protrusion structure 13 is used to control the pressing depth and make way for the groove on the skeleton at the vacant position below the snap part 121. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the sensor anti-electromagnetic interference sensor end cover structure takes the sensor end cover of a multi-pole magnetoresistive resolver with an outer diameter of 37 mm as an example. The material of the metal skeleton 1 of the sensor end cover structure is 50W470, and it is processed into a bowl-shaped structure by metal sheet metalworking. The thickness of the metal skeleton 1 is 0.5 mm, and the outer diameter of the metal skeleton 1 is 32 mm. The metal skeleton 1 is wrapped with a sprayed nylon plastic material on the outer layer to form an insulator; the sensor end cover is insulated from the sensor stator core.
[0030] Reference Figures 4-5 , this embodiment also discloses a sensor, including a stator and a rotor (sensor body 4). A stator skeleton 3 is arranged on the stator, and the above-mentioned sensor end cover is fixedly covered on at least one end. In this embodiment, the sensor end cover is installed in pairs on both sides of the magnetoresistive resolver. The sensor end cover can be installed on one side or in pairs on both sides of the sensor. The sensor is installed on products such as motors by relying on the rear cover side. If the rear cover is made of steel, single-sided protection is sufficient. If the rear cover is made of non-magnetic and conductive materials such as aluminum, double-sided installation is required. The sensor end cover is insulated from the sensor stator core because if the two are not insulated, the magnetic field will be transmitted to the product along the sensor end cover, which will instead cause the interference to intensify.
[0031] The embodiment of the utility model can improve the electromagnetic interference resistance of the sensor without increasing the volume, weight and cost of the sensor. This is because the central part of the electromagnetic interference protection end cover structure of the sensor is the metal skeleton 1. When the electromagnetic field passes through the metal skeleton 1, since the metal skeleton 1 is a conductive soft magnetic material with high magnetic permeability and low resistivity, eddy currents will be excited in the metal skeleton 1, and heat loss will be generated in the metal skeleton 1 by the eddy currents; the magnetic field energy will be consumed, resulting in a sharp attenuation of the magnetic field passing through the metal skeleton 1 and reaching the inside of the skeleton, achieving the purpose of electromagnetic shielding protection. This simple electromagnetic protection structure does not increase the number of parts of the product, and the cost does not increase significantly, which has great practical value.
[0032] The above content is a further detailed description of the utility model in combination with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the utility model is only limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the technical field to which the utility model belongs, without departing from the concept of the utility model, several equivalent substitutions or obvious modifications can be made, and as long as the performance or use is the same, it should be regarded as belonging to the protection scope of the utility model.
