[0001] The utility model relates to a shell for a ring-shaped motor, a ring-shaped motor and a grinder. Background Art
[0002] When in use, a mill requires an electric motor to drive the mill barrel. A traditional mill drive system consists of a drive motor, a reduction gear, a pinion shaft, and a large gear. During operation, the drive motor drives the reduction gear, which in turn drives the pinion shaft, which in turn drives the large gear, which in turn drives the mill barrel to rotate and achieve grinding. This drive system involves numerous transmission links, each of which consumes energy, machinery, lubrication, and space. This results in low energy utilization and transmission efficiency for the entire drive system, significantly increasing energy, machinery, and lubrication consumption.
[0003] As an improvement plan, there is a ring motor that can directly drive the mill cylinder to rotate. However, the installation structure between the casing, stator assembly, rotor assembly and the mill cylinder driven by the rotor assembly of the existing ring motor is not ideal. Especially for large-volume and heavy-load equipment such as the mill, the frame or ring plate used to install the stator assembly of the existing ring motor faces problems such as insufficient strength and poor stability.
[0004] Therefore, an improved technical solution is desired in this field to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] The present invention will be described in detail below by describing exemplary embodiments.
[0030] The utility model provides a shell for a ring-shaped motor, a ring-shaped motor and a grinder.
[0031] See attached Figure 1-3 , Figure 1 2 is a diagram of a ring motor according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a view of one of the sub-housings in a preferred embodiment in which the housing is configured to be composed of four sub-housings. Figure 3 for Figure 2 A partial enlarged view of the sub-housing shown.
[0032] Typically, the ring motor comprises: a housing 1, a stator assembly 2 mounted on the radial inner side of the housing 1, and a rotor assembly 3 mounted on the radial inner side of the stator assembly 2, wherein the rotor assembly 3 has a mounting portion 30 (e.g., Figure 7 As shown), the driven member is fixedly mounted on the radial inner side of the rotor assembly 3.
[0033] As shown in the figure, according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a shell 1 for a ring motor is constructed in an annular shape and has a radial outer wall 13 extending in the circumferential direction, a radial inner wall 10, and a first side wall 11 and a second side wall 12 connected to the two, and the radial outer wall 13, the radial inner wall 10, the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12 define an inner cavity 14; wherein, a reinforcement plate is arranged in the inner cavity 14 to provide support for the shell 1.
[0034] Unlike existing techniques that use a simple frame or a single ring-shaped plate to mount the stator assembly, the present invention utilizes an annular housing with an inner cavity to mount the stator assembly. A reinforcing plate is provided within the inner cavity, providing a stronger and more stable structural support for the stator assembly and, ultimately, the entire ring-shaped motor. Therefore, the present ring-shaped motor is particularly suitable for machinery such as grinding mills that operate under heavy loads and harsh conditions.
[0035] Preferably, the housing 1 may include at least two sub-housings spliced together along the circumferential direction. In the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings, the housing 1 is formed by four sub-housings, and each sub-housing has substantially the same structure.
[0036] It should be understood that the reinforcement plate can have any suitable structure and form, as long as it provides structural support for the shell in a suitable orientation, and as needed, the reinforcement plate can be fixedly connected to each wall of the shell (for example, welded).
[0037] Preferably, see in particular Figure 4 and 6 The reinforcement plate may include a first circumferential reinforcement plate 51 and a second circumferential reinforcement plate 52 located between the radial outer wall 13 and the radial inner wall 10 and extending circumferentially, both of which can provide strong radial support for the shell 1.
[0038] Further preferably, the reinforcement plates may include at least one first axial reinforcement plate 61 located between the first sidewall 11 and the first circumferential reinforcement plate 51 and extending axially, and at least one second axial reinforcement plate 62 located between the second sidewall 12 and the second circumferential reinforcement plate 52 and extending axially. Since the sidewalls 11, 12 and the circumferential reinforcement plates 51, 52 are all components having a relatively long circumferential length, the provision of at least one axial reinforcement plate 61, 62 can provide favorable axial support for the sidewalls and circumferential reinforcement plates, thereby improving the strength and stability of the entire housing.
[0039] Further preferably, continue to see Figure 3-4The housing 1 may include a sealing plate 40 disposed between a first circumferential reinforcement plate 51 and a second circumferential reinforcement plate 52 and spaced apart from the radial inner wall 10. The sealing plate 40 has a circumferentially extending arcuate shape. Thus, the first circumferential reinforcement plate 51, the second circumferential reinforcement plate 52, the radial inner wall 10, and the sealing plate 40 form a cooling channel 4 extending circumferentially and configured to radially oppose the stator assembly 2 of the annular motor. Any suitable coolant, such as water or oil, may flow through the cooling channel 4. Because the cooling channel 4 is adjacent to and directly opposite the stator assembly 2, heat from the stator assembly 2 is directly transferred to the coolant within the cooling channel 4 via the radial inner wall 10, thereby achieving optimized cooling of the stator assembly 2.
[0040] Further preferably, the reinforcing plate may include at least one intermediate reinforcing plate 63, which extends axially, is arranged between the first circumferential reinforcing plate 51 and the second circumferential reinforcing plate 52 and is located radially outside the sealing plate 40, and the at least one intermediate reinforcing plate 63 is welded to the sealing plate 40.
[0041] Further preferably, the housing 1 may include at least one rib 45 disposed in the cooling channel 4 for guiding the flow of coolant. The at least one rib 45 divides the cooling channel 4 into multiple sub-channels. Preferably, the coolant flow directions in adjacent sub-channels can be opposite, that is, the fluid in the sub-channels flows along a winding path, which can greatly improve cooling efficiency and enhance the cooling effect. The rib 45 can be fixed in the cooling channel 4, for example, by welding. Because the stator assembly 2 mounted to the radial inner wall 10 is relatively heavy, the provision of the rib 45 can further increase the strength of the radial inner wall 10.
[0042] Preferably, see Figure 4 and 7 The sealing plate 40 includes a plurality of sub-sealing plates, with gaps extending circumferentially between adjacent sub-sealing plates, and the top of each of the at least one rib 45 has a boss 47 extending into the corresponding gap, so that the at least one rib 45 is connected to the plurality of sub-sealing plates by welding on both sides of the boss 47. According to another embodiment not shown, the sealing plate can be a single sealing plate, that is, a whole annular plate with multiple gaps, and the ribs can have similar bosses and be installed in a manner similar to the above. Through this structure, the connection between the sealing plate and the ribs can be more conveniently achieved, and the sealing and strength of the welding connection between the sealing plate and the ribs are higher.
[0043] It is further preferred that the first circumferential reinforcement plate 51, the second circumferential reinforcement plate 52, the at least one first axial reinforcement plate 61 and the at least one second axial reinforcement plate 62 and / or the at least one intermediate reinforcement plate 63 have weight-reducing holes, thereby further reducing the overall weight of the housing 1 and thereby reducing the weight of the ring motor.
[0044] Preferably, the radial outer wall 13 has an access opening 130 for accessing the inner cavity 14 so as to be able to approach the at least one rib 45, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 Through the access opening 130 , operations such as installation and welding inside the housing can be easily performed.
[0045] According to a preferred embodiment not shown, in the absence of the circumferential reinforcement plates 51 and 52 as described above, the reinforcement plate may be at least one axial reinforcement plate extending in the axial direction, that is, such an axial reinforcement plate is directly supported between the first side wall 11 and the second side wall 12. Moreover, the at least one axial reinforcement plate may also have a weight-reducing hole.
[0046] It should be understood that the aforementioned axial reinforcement plates 61, 62 and the intermediate reinforcement plate 63 can all be regarded as axial reinforcement plates. Figure 7 The edge of the at least one axial reinforcement plate (including the axially extending plates 61, 62, and 63 as described above) facing the radial inner wall 10 has a notch 16. Since stator assemblies typically require a paint dip operation, adding a notch to the axial reinforcement plate allows paint to flow through the notch, thereby reducing paint residue in the housing after paint dip. This not only reduces paint usage, but also lowers production costs and avoids undesirable weight increases.
[0047] The present invention also provides a ring-shaped motor, which includes the housing 1, the stator assembly 2 and the rotor assembly 3 as described above.
[0048] The utility model also provides a grinding machine, see Figure 8 The cylinder 8 is fixedly mounted on the radial inner side of the rotor assembly 3. For example, the cylinder 8 can be mounted on the mounting portion 30 by bolts. Although not shown, it should be understood that the cylinder 8 of the mill can be supported at its axial ends by structures consisting of necessary bearings, brackets, etc., so that the cylinder 8 and the rotor assembly 3 can rotate stably together.
[0049] The exemplary implementation of the ring motor proposed in the present invention is described in detail above with reference to the preferred embodiments. However, those skilled in the art will understand that, without departing from the concept of the present invention, various modifications and variations can be made to the above-mentioned specific embodiments, and various technical features and structures proposed in the present invention can be combined in various ways without exceeding the scope of protection of the present invention.
