Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a motor rotor structure, which includes a rotor body 100 and a plurality of first magnets 200. The rotor body 100 is provided with a plurality of first fixed grooves 101 along the radial direction, and the first fixed grooves 101 are evenly spaced along the circumference of the rotor body 100. The first magnets 200 are respectively clamped in the fixed grooves, and a first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is provided between two adjacent first fixed grooves 101. The first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is located at one end of the first fixed groove 101 close to the central axis of the rotor body 100.
[0029] In this embodiment, the rotor body 100 can be manufactured using an integral molding process or by lamination. The rotor body 100 is an overall cylindrical structure and radially defines a plurality of first fixing slots 101. Each first fixing slot 101 is provided with a first magnet 200. Multiple first magnets 200 are evenly spaced circumferentially on the rotor body 100, forming a spoke-like structure. The spoke-like arrangement of the first magnets 200 allows the ends of the first magnets 200 to face the coils on the stator. This increases the magnetic flux at the interface between the first magnets 200 and the stator, boosting the torque of the rotor body 100. Even with a reduced size, the rotor can still function properly. Compared to existing rectangular "V"-shaped magnet arrangements, the spoke-like arrangement employed in this embodiment significantly improves the motor's reluctance torque, thereby reducing magnet usage and improving magnet utilization, thereby reducing motor cost. At the same time, in order to prevent the leakage magnetic coefficient of the permanent magnet from being too large, which would lead to an excessively low utilization rate of the permanent magnet, a first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is provided between two adjacent first fixed slots 101. The first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is located at one end of the first fixed slot 101 close to the central axis of the rotor body 100. It can be understood that the first magnets 200 are distributed in a spoke-like manner, and the closer to the central axis of the rotor body 100, the smaller the distance between the first magnets 200. In order to improve the utilization rate of the permanent magnets, a magnetic isolation bridge is provided between the first magnets 200 to increase the utilization rate of the magnets and ensure the use effect of the first magnets 200.
[0030] In some possible embodiments, a spacing groove 103 is provided at one end of the first fixing groove 101 close to the radial inner side of the rotor body 100 , and the first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is located between two adjacent spacing grooves 103 .
[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, a spacing slot 103 is provided at one end of the first fixing slot 101 near the center of the rotor body 100. The spacing slots 103 are provided on both sides of the first fixing slot 101. Because the first fixing slots 101 are arranged in a spoke-like pattern, the distance between adjacent first fixing slots 101 decreases as they approach the center of the rotor body 100. In this case, spacing slots 103 are provided on both sides of the first fixing slot 101, forming a narrow magnetic isolation bridge structure between the two first fixing slots 101. This structure saturates the magnetic flux in this area, thereby limiting magnetic leakage. The spacing slots 103 cooperate with the spoke-like arrangement of the first fixing slots 101 to fully optimize space. By utilizing the characteristic that the distance between adjacent first fixing slots 101 decreases as they approach the center of the rotor body 100, the first magnetic isolation bridge 102 is formed. This ensures the utilization rate of the first magnet 200 while not significantly affecting the support strength of the rotor body 100, thereby ensuring the performance and service life of the rotor body 100.
[0032] In some possible implementations, there are two spacing grooves 103 , and the two spacing grooves 103 are symmetrically disposed on both sides of the first fixing groove 101 .
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, there are two spacing grooves 103 , and the two spacing grooves 103 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the first fixing groove 101 , so that a first magnetic isolation bridge 102 structure can be formed between any first fixing groove 101 and the first fixing grooves 101 on both sides.
[0034] In some possible embodiments, the extending direction of the spacing groove 103 is inclined relative to the radial direction of the first fixing groove 101 . Assuming that the included angle between the spacing groove 103 and the first fixing groove 101 is α, then 35°<α<45°.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, inclined spacing slots 103 are provided on either side of the first fixing slot 101, near the center of the rotor body 100. These spacing slots 103 form a dovetail-shaped magnetic isolation bridge structure, ensuring magnetic isolation while preventing the spacing slots 103 from affecting the support strength of the rotor body 100. The spacing slots 103 are interconnected with the first fixing slot 101, forming an angle between them. The angle between the spacing slots 103 and the first fixing slot 101 ranges from 35° to 45°. It is understood that if the angle between the spacing slots 103 and the first fixing slots 101 is too small, a narrow magnetic isolation bridge cannot be formed between the two first fixing slots 101, thereby failing to achieve magnetic isolation and improve magnet utilization. Conversely, if the angle between the spacing slots 103 and the first fixing slots 101 is too large, the connecting material between adjacent first fixing slots 101 is reduced, affecting the support strength and service life of the entire rotor body 100. Therefore, the angle between the spacing slot 103 and the first fixing slot 101 is preferably set to 40°, which can form a magnetic isolation bridge structure to ensure the utilization rate of the magnets while avoiding affecting the supporting strength of the rotor body 100.
[0036] In some possible embodiments, the first fixed slot 101 includes a plurality of slot sections sequentially arranged along the radial direction of the rotor body 100 , two adjacent slot sections are spaced apart from each other, and a first magnet 200 is disposed in each slot section.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first fixing slot 101 is formed by multiple slots arranged in sequence, and a first magnet 200 is set in each slot. The first magnet 200 is formed by combining multiple magnets. The multiple first magnets 200 can be produced and installed separately, reducing the difficulty of production and installation. It should be noted that Figure 3 The figure only shows a structure of two sections of the fixing groove. In some possible embodiments, the first fixing groove 101 can also be set to a multi-section structure such as three sections or four sections.
[0038] In some possible embodiments, a plurality of second fixing slots 104 are spaced apart on the peripheral wall of the rotor body 100 . The second fixing slots 104 are respectively opened between two adjacent first fixing slots 101 . The second magnets 300 are disposed in the second fixing slots 104 .
[0039] Please refer to Figure 4 As shown, the rotor body 100 is provided with a second fixing slot 104 on its circumferential wall. The second fixing slot 104 is located between two adjacent first fixing slots 101, thereby increasing the magnetic flux at the point where the rotor body 100 and the stator meet, thereby improving rotor efficiency. It is understood that the first fixing slots 101 and the first magnets 200 are arranged in a spoke-like structure. The further away from the center of the rotor body 100, the greater the distance between the first fixing slots 101. In this case, the distance between two adjacent first magnets 200 may be too large due to the influence of the rotor radius and the width of the first magnets 200, affecting the performance of the rotor. In this case, a second magnet 300 can be added between two adjacent first magnets 200 to increase the magnetic flux at the point where the rotor meets the stator, thereby ensuring rotor efficiency. It should be noted that the second magnet 300 can be secured to the second fixing slot 104 by gluing or snapping, and the specific connection method is not limited.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some possible embodiments, a second magnetic isolation bridge 105 is provided at one end of the first fixed groove 101 close to the second fixed groove 104, and a narrow magnetic isolation bridge structure is formed by reducing the material between the first fixed groove 101 and the second fixed groove 104, thereby further improving the utilization rate of the first magnet 200 and the second magnet 300.
[0041] In some possible embodiments, a limiting protrusion 106 is provided at one end of the first fixing slot 101 close to the first magnetic isolation bridge 102 , and the limiting protrusion 106 abuts against the first magnet 200 for limiting position.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, a limiting protrusion 106 is provided at one end of the first fixing groove 101 near the center of the rotor body 100, and the width of the limiting protrusion 106 is smaller than the width of the first fixing groove 101. The limiting protrusion 106 abuts against one end of the first magnet 200, while the other end of the first magnet 200 abuts against the inner wall of the fixing groove, thereby fixing the first magnet 200. No other device is required to assist in fixing during installation, and assembly and disassembly are convenient. The first magnet 200 is installed in the first fixing groove 101 through the limiting protrusion 106. The limiting protrusion 106 reduces the contact area with the first magnet 200. The limiting protrusion 106 also acts as a magnetic isolation bridge to ensure the utilization rate of the first magnet 200.
[0043] In some possible embodiments, the first magnet 200 and the second magnet 300 include one or more of rectangular magnetic steel and arc-shaped magnetic steel.
[0044] The first and second magnets 200, 300 can be configured in a square or tile-shaped arc shape, depending on actual production needs. To ensure stability during installation, retaining grooves can be provided on the first and second magnets 200, 300, which cooperate with the positioning protrusions on the rotor body 100 to provide position limits, ensuring the stability and performance of the first and second magnets 200, 300. Both the first and second magnets 200, 300 are made of permanent magnet steel, a common type of permanent magnet on the market, offering excellent corrosion resistance and a long service life.
[0045] The utility model also provides a driving motor, which comprises a housing, a stator and any one of the above motor rotor structures, wherein the stator and the motor rotor structure are both arranged inside the housing.
[0046] The drive motor provided in this embodiment adopts the motor rotor structure provided in the above embodiment, which has low cost and high utilization rate of the permanent magnets of the rotor, thereby improving the efficiency and use effect of the drive motor.
[0047] It should be noted that, unless there is any conflict, the features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other.
[0048] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
