Its primary function is to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy, driving the engine's flywheel and enabling the engine to enter self-running mode from a standstill. The starter motor typically draws power from a battery and generates rotational torque through a magnetic field. The starter motor's rotor is the rotating part of the electric motor. When power is applied, the rotor generates rotational motion through electromagnetic induction, driving the starter motor to generate mechanical energy.

[0003] In the prior art, the spacing between the winding lead wires of adjacent commutator segments on the connection flange on one side of the commutator is large, and there is a cavity inside the winding lead wire, resulting in a lack of support for the winding lead wire on one side of the commutator. During the operation of an engine or other equipment, the rotation of the motor rotor generates centrifugal force. Under the action of centrifugal force, coupled with resonance caused by the operation of the motor, under the influence of high-frequency vibration and other factors, the welding point between the winding lead wire and the commutator will experience desoldering and other phenomena due to the lead wire being suspended in the air and lacking support, resulting in intermittent short circuits and causing motor failure.

[0005] The technical solution of the present utility model is achieved as follows:

[0006] A rotor structure for a starter motor includes a rotor shaft, on which a rotor core and a commutator are interference fit, respectively. Each winding lead wire on the rotor core is welded to a radial extension portion for welding the lead wire provided at one end of the commutator. An insulating tray for supporting the winding lead wire is provided at the axial end of the commutator adjacent to the rotor core. The diameter of the insulating tray is smaller than the bottom diameter of the commutator, the thickness of the insulating tray is smaller than the spacing between the commutator and the rotor core, and the end surface of the insulating tray facing one end of the rotor core and the circumference form an arc transition. The connection between each winding lead wire of the rotor core and the commutator is supported by the insulating tray to prevent the winding lead wire from bending or breaking.

[0007] Preferably, the radially extending portion for welding the lead wire is a wire flange.

[0008] Preferably, a plurality of wire embedding grooves are provided on the circumference of the wiring flange, and the winding lead wires are welded in the wire embedding grooves.

[0009] Preferably, the radial extension portion for welding the lead wire is a hook, and the winding lead wire is welded inside the hook.

[0010] Preferably, the insulating tray is made of thermosetting insulating plastic.

[0011] Preferably, the insulating tray is integrally injection-molded on the insulating sleeve of the commutator.

[0012] Preferably, the insulating tray is fixed to the rotor shaft by interference fit.

[0013] Preferably, the distance between the circumference of the insulating tray and the circumference of the wiring flange is the radius of the winding lead wire.
