Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of motor sealing and shaft current protection, and particularly relates to a motor shaft seal and shaft current protection structure. Background Art
[0002] When manufacturing a motor, due to the inevitable uneven air gap between the stator and rotor during the production process, the magnetic resistance is uneven, resulting in shaft voltage. When the shaft voltage is too large, shaft current is generated. Now, a large number of frequency converters are used, which also easily generate shaft current. The shaft current corrodes the motor bearings, damages the bearings, makes the motor vibrate and generate more noise, and produces electromagnetic interference, increases energy consumption, and reduces efficiency. The existing measures to prevent shaft current generation on the market are as follows: First, use a grounding carbon brush to contact the shaft and lead the shaft current out of the motor to ground, but the carbon brush is easily worn and has poor contact with the shaft, resulting in grounding failure; Second, use an insulating end cover, and the insulation effect is easily invaded by external pollution, resulting in insulation failure. The protection of motor shaft current is not ideal. Summary of the Invention
