Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of motors, and in particular relates to a motor with an end locking mechanism. Background Art
[0002] Motors typically have an inner rotor structure, with bearings at both the front and rear ends of the rotor. A small gap exists between the bearings and the bearing housing. Due to the high-speed rotation of the rotor, over long periods of operation, the inner ring of the bearing will drive the outer ring of the bearing, causing friction between the outer ring and the bearing housing. Simultaneously, the bearing may experience axial reciprocating movement. This can damage the bearings, disrupting their fit, leading to abnormal vibration and even damage to the motor.
[0003] Chinese patent application number 2011205357784 discloses a motor bearing locking structure, including a rotating shaft and a bearing; a locking cover is provided at the end of the rotating shaft; the end face of the locking cover abuts against the outer end face of the inner ring of the bearing; the rotating shaft is fixedly connected with a locking bolt along the axial direction; the rod of the locking bolt passes through the locking cover and cooperates with the rotating shaft; a locking plate is provided between the head of the locking bolt and the locking cover; the edge of the locking plate is turned outward and clamps the head of the locking bolt.
[0004] The above solution is also a method for locking bearings, similar to existing technologies, in that bolts are used to lock the inner or outer ring of the corresponding bearing. However, this structure requires additional machining of the bearings, which is difficult due to their small size. Furthermore, since the locking is performed in the bearing chamber inside the motor, the limited operating space makes it difficult to operate. Utility Model Content

[0011] The advantages of the utility model are:
[0012] 1. This solution's primary locking mechanism utilizes an integrated rotating and holding element.

When an element is referred to as being "fixedly connected to" another element, it can be a common fixed connection method such as welding, bolt connection, or gluing connection. In short, for ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0027] Example 1, as Figure 1-2 As shown, a motor with an end locking mechanism includes a motor housing 1, a front cover 2, a rear cover 3, a stator 4, a rotor core 5, and a rotating shaft 6. The front cover 2 and the rear cover are respectively mounted at the front and rear ends of the motor housing 1. The rotating shaft 6 is rotatably arranged inside the motor housing 1. The rotor core 5 is arranged on the middle outer side of the rotating shaft 6, and the stator 4 is arranged on the outer side of the rotor core 5. The rotating shaft 6 supports the rotor core 5 and the stator 4 and allows them to rotate freely. The front cover 2 and the rear cover 3 are each provided with a bearing chamber in the middle, each housing a bearing 7. The two sides of the rotating shaft 6 pass through the bearings 7 on both sides and are fixedly connected to the inner rings of the bearings 7.
[0028] Combine Figure 2-3 In this embodiment, a circular opening portion 8 is opened in the middle of the front end cover 2, and a first-level locking portion is threadedly connected to the opening portion 8. The first-level locking portion includes an integrally formed rotating member 9 and a pressing member 10. The rotating member 9 is a hexagonal structure. The hexagonal structure provides multiple flat sides, so that the operator can easily hold and rotate the rotating member 9 with a wrench, a screwdriver or other special tools. The pressing member 10 is a cylindrical structure. The outside of the pressing member 10 is provided with a thread. The pressing member 10 extends to the inside of the opening portion 8 and abuts against the outer ring of the bearing 7. After rotating the rotating member 9, the pressing member 10 can be moved axially in the direction of the bearing 7 and further squeezed with the outer ring of the bearing 7, squeezing and locking the outer ring of the bearing 7 to prevent the bearing 7 from axial movement and rotation.
[0029] By rotating the member 9, the pressing member 10 is brought into close contact with the outer ring of the bearing 7, achieving a squeeze-locked connection. This design not only offers a compact structure but also evenly distributes the locking force, effectively preventing the outer ring of the bearing 7 from rotating and axially reciprocating, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the locking. Furthermore, this solution eliminates the need for machining the bearing 7, and the locking operation is performed externally to the motor, reducing both machining and locking complexity. In addition to the primary locking portion provided on the front end cover 2, a primary locking portion of the same structure can also be provided on the rear end cover 3 to lock the bearing 7.
[0030] Combine Figure 4-5 In this embodiment, the secondary locking mechanism includes a first fixing plate 12 secured around the rotating member 9. A locking bolt 13 is provided on the first fixing plate 12, and a locking plate 14 is provided on the end of the locking bolt 13 facing the rotating member 9. The first fixing plate 12 is fixed to the front end cover 2. By rotating the locking bolt 13, the locking plate 14 can be moved closer to or further away from the rotating member 9, conveniently adjusting the degree of locking of the locking plate 14 on the rotating member 9 to meet the required locking force under different operating conditions and prevent the rotating member 9 from rotating after being locked. In this embodiment, four secondary locking mechanisms are provided around the rotating member 9. The tightening effect of the multiple locking bolts 13 is evenly distributed around the rotating member 9, making the locking force more stable and reducing the risk of locking failure due to vibration or impact. The secondary locking mechanism further secures the rotating member 9 through the locking bolts 13 and the locking plate 14, providing a double guarantee for the locking effect. This dual locking mechanism effectively prevents the bearing 7 from loosening when the motor is running at high speed or under heavy load. In this embodiment, the number of the secondary locking parts is at least one and can be six at most.
[0031] Example 2, as Figure 6-8As shown, a motor with an end locking mechanism is shown. The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that: the rotating member 9 is a disc-shaped structure, the outer periphery of the rotating member 9 is provided with gear teeth 15, the outside of the pressing member 10 is provided with a thread, and an axial hole 11 is formed in the middle of the rotating member 9 and the pressing member 10. The secondary locking part includes a second fixed plate 16 fixed around the rotating member 9, the second fixed plate 16 is provided with a sliding cavity 17, the sliding cavity 17 is provided with a sliding rod 18, and the sliding rod 18 is connected to a rack plate 19 at one end close to the rotating member 9. A reset spring 20 is provided on the outer side of the sliding rod 18, one end of the reset spring 20 is connected to the rack plate 19, and the other end of the reset spring 20 is fixed to the second fixed plate 16. Before rotating the rotating member 9, the rack plate 19 is pressed to move it away from the rotating member 9, causing the return spring 20 to contract. After the rotating member 9 is locked, the return spring 20 is reset, and the rack plate 19 is moved closer to the rotating member 9 until the side of the rack plate 19 with the rack engages with the gear teeth 15 on the outside of the rotating member 9, thereby preventing the rotating member 9 from rotating. The number of sliding cavities 17 and sliding rods 18 in this solution can be adjusted as needed. In this embodiment, three sliding cavities 17 and sliding rods 18 are provided to ensure structural stability.
[0032] In this solution, the operator can control the movement of the rack plate 19 through simple push-pull operations, thereby locking or unlocking the rotating member 9. This intuitive operation method reduces operational difficulty and improves operational efficiency. The number of secondary locking parts in this embodiment can also be adjusted according to needs.
[0033] A first magnetic member 21 is located at the bottom of the sliding rod 18, and a second magnetic member 23 is located at the bottom of the sliding cavity 17. The elasticity of the return spring 20 may weaken over time, usage, or environmental conditions. The first magnetic member 21 and the second magnetic member 23 are magnetically repelling, for example, if the first magnetic member 21 has a north pole and the second magnetic member has a north pole. The introduction of magnetic members can reduce the reliance on the elasticity of the return spring 20 to a certain extent, improving the long-term stability and reliability of the secondary locking mechanism.
[0034] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
