Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of bearings, and more specifically, to a magnetic suspension bearing with a cooling structure. Background Art
[0002] Magnetic bearings are a new type of bearing that utilizes magnetic force to achieve contactless operation. They offer a range of excellent qualities, including non-contact operation, no need for lubrication or sealing, low vibration, long service life, and low maintenance costs. Magnetic bearings can be categorized into two types based on their principle: active magnetic bearings and passive magnetic bearings. Due to the superior performance of the active magnetic bearing, they are gaining increasing industrial application. Active magnetic bearings utilize electromagnetic force to maintain stable suspension, while the axis center position can be controlled by a control system. They consist of a displacement sensor, a controller, a power amplifier, and an electromagnetic actuator. Their operating principle is as follows: the displacement sensor monitors the axis position and transmits this information to the control system. The control system determines the necessary control signals and sends them to the power amplifier, which converts them into an increased current in the electromagnetic actuator, causing the rotating axis to be positioned at the center of the bearing actuator.
[0003] Patent document CN221723237U discloses a magnetic levitation bearing, comprising a cylindrical inner casing; a magnet is coaxially mounted in the center of the inner casing, with a primary radial bearing seat and a secondary radial bearing seat coaxially mounted in the inner casing at each end of the magnet. The outer ends of the primary radial bearing seat and the secondary radial bearing seat are respectively limited and pressed by the primary protective bearing seat and the secondary protective bearing seat at the end of the inner casing, and the inner ends of the primary radial bearing seat and the secondary radial bearing seat are both provided with coils. The utility model has a two-stage, front and rear two-stage, two-stage magnetic levitation structure that can maintain the stable suspension state of the shaft in an extremely efficient manner during operation, with high fault tolerance and lower control difficulty. The secondary magnetic levitation causes the control output to act on the two-stage coils simultaneously, amplifying the state control effect, thereby structurally ensuring that the control accuracy is improved.
[0004] The existing magnetic bearing has a heat dissipation structure on the bearing seat, which cannot directly dissipate the heat of the bearing, resulting in poor heat dissipation effect. Long-term use can easily lead to a reduction in the service life of the magnetic bearing.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a magnetic suspension bearing with a cooling structure to solve the problems existing in the prior art, that is, the heat dissipation effect is poor and long-term use easily leads to a reduction in the service life of the magnetic suspension bearing.

[0035] Two groups of radial magnetic levitation components 3 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the axial magnetic levitation component 4.
[0036] Furthermore, a ventilation duct 12 is provided inside the bearing outer ring 1 and is spaced apart from the cooling water channel 5 and arranged axially along the bearing outer ring 1 . A plurality of ventilation ducts 12 are arranged in a circular array along the axis of the bearing outer ring 1 , and the positions of the ventilation ducts 12 correspond to the gaps between adjacent teeth 11 .
[0037] Furthermore, a fan 13 is provided on a side of the radial magnetic levitation assembly 3 away from the center of the bearing outer ring 1 , and the fan 13 is fixedly provided on the outer circumference of the bearing inner ring 2 .
[0038] Furthermore, the fan 13 includes a fixing ring 22, which is fixedly connected to the bearing inner ring 2. The fixing ring 22 is fixedly connected to the fan body via webs 14 arranged in an array along the circumferential direction. The fan body includes an inner ring 15 and an outer ring 16. Blades 17 are fixedly arranged between the inner ring 15 and the outer ring 16. A plurality of blades 17 are evenly arranged along the circumference of the inner ring 15.
[0039] Two fans 13 are symmetrically arranged outside the two radial magnetic levitation assemblies 3 .
[0040] Furthermore, the two ends of the bearing outer ring 1 are detachably connected to the end cover 18, and an air guide groove 19 is provided on the inner side wall of the end cover 18 along the radial direction of the end cover 18.

[0041] Furthermore, the axial magnetic levitation assembly 4 includes a connecting plate 20 fixedly arranged at the middle portion of the inner wall of the bearing outer ring 1 , and a plurality of ventilation holes 21 are provided on the side wall of the connecting plate 20 .
[0042] Furthermore, the sealing ring 9 is made of rubber, silicone or polyurethane.
[0043] The working principle of the above technical solution is:
[0044] The magnetic levitation bearing in the prior art cools the bearing seat, which increases heat transfer and has poor heat dissipation effect. The magnetic levitation bearing with a cooling structure described in the utility model includes a bearing outer ring 1 and a bearing inner ring 2. A radial magnetic levitation component 3 and an axial magnetic levitation component 4 are arranged between the bearing outer ring 1 and the bearing inner ring 2. A spiral cooling water channel 5 is arranged inside the bearing outer ring 1. The cooling water channel 5 is connected to the water channel on the bearing seat. The cooling water in the cooling water channel 5 can promptly take away the heat generated by the magnetic levitation bearing during operation, and the heat dissipation efficiency is high.
[0045] A ventilation duct 12 is provided inside the bearing outer ring 1 and spaced apart from the cooling water channel 5, and is arranged along the axial direction of the bearing outer ring 1. A plurality of ventilation ducts 12 are arranged in a circular array along the axis of the bearing outer ring 1. The position of the ventilation duct 12 corresponds to the gap between adjacent teeth 11. The center of the plurality of blades 17 of the fan 13 forms a circular ring that coincides with the center of the plurality of ventilation ducts 12. The wind blown out by the blades of the fan 13 on the left can enter the ventilation duct 12. The fan 13 is symmetrically provided at the other end of the bearing outer ring 1 to suck the air in the ventilation duct 12 and then blow the air to the guide on the end cover 18. The air passes through the air guide groove 19 on the right end cover 18, enters the space between the teeth 11 and the inner space between the bearing outer ring 1 and the bearing inner ring 2, passes through the ventilation holes on the connecting plate 20, and passes through the air guide groove 19 on the left end cover 18 again. It enters the ventilation duct through the left fan 13, forming an air circulation, taking away the heat between the bearing outer ring 1 and the bearing inner ring 2 and on the radial magnetic levitation component 3 and the axial magnetic levitation component 4 on the bearing inner ring 2. After entering the ventilation duct 12, the heat is transferred to the bearing outer ring 1, and then the heat is taken away by the cooling water, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the magnetic suspension bearing.
[0046] The inner ring 15 and the outer ring 16 of the fan body can better enable the blades to blow air into the ventilation duct 12.
[0047] The radial magnetic levitation assembly 3 and the axial magnetic levitation assembly 4 both include a stator unit fixedly arranged on the bearing outer ring 1 and a rotor unit fixedly arranged on the bearing inner ring 2. The rotor unit and the stator unit are arranged correspondingly. The radial magnetic levitation assembly 3 and the axial magnetic levitation assembly 4 are prior art, such as the bearing stator and rotor of the magnetic levitation bearing disclosed in CN220687849U or CN202011555742, which will not be repeated here.
[0048] A positioning device can be installed on the outer circumference of the bearing outer ring 1 to ensure that when the magnetic bearing is installed on the bearing seat, the cooling water channel 5 is aligned with the water channel on the bearing seat, ensuring the normal flow of cooling water. Because the cooling water pressure is relatively low during the cooling process, sealing rings 9 are installed on the water inlet 6 and outlet 7 to ensure a seal between the magnetic bearing and the bearing seat, preventing cooling water leakage and preventing it from affecting the operation of the magnetic bearing.
[0049] The radial magnetic levitation component 3 can be detachably arranged inside the bearing outer ring 1, and can be connected using screws or retaining rings. The end cover 18 can be connected to the end face of the bearing outer ring 1 using screws. Multiple threaded holes can be evenly arranged on the end face of the bearing outer ring 1 along the circumferential direction, and a through hole is opened on the end cover 18 at a position opposite to the threaded hole for the screw to pass through.
[0050] End covers 18 are provided at both ends of the bearing outer ring 1 to keep the interior of the bearing relatively closed, preventing the entry of dust and other debris, and preventing debris from entering the air gap between the stator unit and the rotor unit of the high-speed rotating magnetic bearing, causing damage to the magnetic bearing.
[0051] Beneficial effects of the above technical solution:
[0052] The magnetic levitation bearing with a cooling structure described in the utility model has a spiral cooling water channel inside the outer ring of the bearing. The cooling water in the cooling water channel can directly take away the heat generated during the operation of the magnetic levitation bearing, which has a good cooling effect and prevents the service life of the magnetic levitation bearing from being reduced due to poor heat dissipation.
