Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motors, in particular to a motor commutator. Background Art
[0002] The motor commutator is an important component in DC motors and AC commutator motors. In DC motors, the commutator is used in conjunction with the brush. By continuously changing the direction of the current in the motor winding, the electromagnetic field of the motor can continue to rotate. The commutator periodically changes the direction of the current in the armature winding to ensure that the electromagnetic torque of the motor is always in the same direction, so that the motor can operate continuously and smoothly. In a series-wound DC motor, the commutator can adjust the speed of the motor by changing the magnitude of the current in the armature or field winding.
[0003] The publication number is: CN108365488A, which discloses a motor commutator, including a base body and commutator segments evenly arranged on the outer circumference of the base body. An insulating groove is provided between adjacent commutator segments for inter-sheet insulation. In the height area where the commutator segments are in contact with the brush, the two side edges of the commutator segments corresponding to the insulating groove are provided with upper straight edges and lower straight edges that are not in the same plane. The upper and lower straight edges are transitioned by an inclined edge. The perpendicular distance between the upper and lower straight edges is less than the width of the insulating groove, which effectively solves the technical problem of the generation of edge sparks and arcs during the operation of the commutator, and improves the service life of the brush and the motor. However, this motor commutator lacks a fixing structure with the motor. If the commutator cannot be firmly fixed on the motor, it will shift or vibrate during operation, resulting in unstable operation of the motor and affecting the smoothness of the output torque. The instability of the commutator will cause it to fall off during the operation of the motor, causing a safety accident. Especially in the case of high-speed operation, the falling-off commutator will break through the housing and cause harm to the operator. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in this technology. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a motor commutator aiming at the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present utility model provides the following technical solutions. A motor commutator includes a base body, and commutator segments are evenly distributed on the outer circumference of the base body. It is characterized in that: a commutator seat is provided on the periphery of the base body, an upper fixing groove is circumferentially provided around the base body, a lower fixing groove is circumferentially provided at the bottom of the upper fixing groove, an installation cavity for installing the base body is provided in the middle of the upper fixing groove and the lower fixing groove, an upper fixing block and a lower fixing block that are clamped and matched with the upper fixing groove and the lower fixing groove are provided on the inner side of the commutator seat, and the base body and the commutator seat are fixed in the installation cavity through the clamping and matching of the upper fixing block and the lower fixing block with the upper fixing groove and the lower fixing groove. The plurality of commutator segments are fixedly arranged at the upper end of the commutator seat, and a plurality of installation grooves for fixedly installing with the motor are vertically provided on the periphery of the commutator seat, and the installation grooves penetrate the commutator seat. The commutator seat is connected through the upper fixing block and the lower fixing block.
[0006] Adopting the above technical solutions, through the clamping and matching of the upper fixing block and the lower fixing block with the upper fixing groove and the lower fixing groove, the base body is firmly fixed in the commutator seat, which greatly improves the mechanical stability of the entire commutator. The design of the installation groove enhances the overall structural strength of the commutator, firmly installs the commutator on the internal structure of the motor, ensures that the commutator can work stably during the operation of the motor, thereby avoiding any displacement or damage caused by vibration or movement, preventing the commutator from falling off during the operation of the motor and causing safety accidents, and making the product more stable.
[0007] The above-mentioned motor commutator can be further set as: a plurality of insulating grooves are evenly distributed on the periphery of the base body, the installation grooves are arranged parallel to the insulating grooves, and the insulating grooves promote the electrical isolation of the commutator segments arranged on the commutator seat.
[0008] Adopting the above technical solutions, the insulating grooves physically isolate each commutator segment, effectively preventing the occurrence of short circuits between different commutator segments, ensuring that the current only flows within the predetermined circuit. The existence of the insulating grooves not only achieves electrical isolation, but also helps the commutator maintain an appropriate temperature during long-term operation through reasonable layout and material selection, avoiding performance degradation or failures caused by overheating. The integrated insulating groove design can simplify the manufacturing process of the commutator and make it easier to mass-produce.
[0009] The above-mentioned motor commutator can be further set as: the commutator segment includes a connection end fixedly connected to the commutator seat, and the other end of the connection end is provided with a bent portion bent downward, and a groove for external fixed connection is formed between the bent portion and the commutator seat.
[0010] With the above technical solution, the design of the fixed end and the bent portion of the commutator segment can stably fix the contact between the commutator segment and the carbon brush in the groove to maintain smooth current transmission, improve the efficiency and lifespan of the motor. The connection end is the part where the commutator segment is fixedly connected to the commutator base, which ensures that the commutator segment can be firmly installed on the commutator base. Through the downward bending design of the bent portion, a groove is formed between the bent portion and the commutator base, enhancing the mechanical strength of the commutator segment. When the commutator segment is subject to large centrifugal force and mechanical stress under the condition of high-speed rotation of the motor, the bent portion can effectively disperse these forces and prevent the commutator segment from deforming or breaking.
[0011] The above-mentioned motor commutator can be further configured as follows: installation bumps are provided on the outer side of the commutator base, a stepped abutting groove is formed between the installation bumps and the outer side of the commutator base, and a through hole for the motor to pass through is provided in the middle of the base body.
[0012] With the above technical solution, the design of the installation bumps and the stepped abutting groove can ensure the precise positioning of the commutator inside the motor, avoid deviations during the assembly process. High-precision assembly helps reduce vibration and noise during the operation of the motor and improves the running stability of the overall equipment. The through hole not only provides an installation channel for the motor shaft but also increases the contact area between the commutator and the air inside the motor, contributing to heat dissipation.
[0013] The above-mentioned motor commutator can be further configured as follows: the upper fixing groove and the upper fixing block are both inclined downward, the lower fixing groove and the upper fixing groove are both inclined upward, and the commutator base is fixedly connected to the base body through embedded pressure glue.

A number of insulation grooves 10 are evenly distributed on the periphery of the substrate 1. The installation grooves 9 and the insulation grooves 10 are arranged in parallel. The insulation grooves 10 promote the electrical isolation of the commutator segments 2 arranged on the commutator base 3. The insulation grooves 10 physically isolate each commutator segment 2, effectively preventing the occurrence of short circuits between different commutator segments 2, ensuring that the current only flows within the predetermined circuit.

Through the downward bending design of the bent portion 12, a groove 13 is formed between the bent portion 12 and the commutator base 3, enhancing the mechanical strength of the commutator segment 2. Under the condition of high-speed rotation of the motor, when the commutator segment 2 is subjected to large centrifugal force and mechanical stress, the bent portion 12 can effectively disperse these forces to prevent the commutator segment 2 from deforming or breaking.
