Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an electric motor, specifically a novel electric motor stator. Background Technology

[0002] An electric motor (including electric motors and generators) is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy (or mechanical energy into electrical energy) based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. It serves as a power source or generator for various electrical appliances such as household appliances, and various machines such as electric motorcycles and electric vehicles. Electric motors can be classified into DC motors and AC motors based on the type of electricity they operate on. AC motors can be further divided into single-phase motors and multi-phase motors (such as three-phase motors). An electric motor consists of a stator and a rotor, with windings arranged in the stator core slots. Existing motor winding forms include wave windings and lap windings. For segmented hairpin winding motors using pre-formed flat wire conductors, lap windings are used. The hairpins of this type of pre-formed flat wire conductor include an upper non-welded portion, straight portions on both sides, and a lower welded portion.

[0003] Different vehicle models and application scenarios have different performance requirements for motors, and therefore different motors are used. Currently, although each three-phase motor has three-phase windings, each phase winding outputs one connector, for a total of three connectors. These are connected using standard copper busbars, which can only achieve a single connection method. When motor manufacturers produce different motors according to orders, they need to frequently change tooling fixtures, resulting in high production line investment and low production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a motor stator that can meet the various performance requirements of motors for different vehicle models and application scenarios. At the same time, it solves the problem of frequently changing tooling fixtures when producing flat wire motors with different winding schemes, thereby reducing production line investment and improving production efficiency.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An electric motor stator includes a stator body and flat wire conductors. The stator body has vertically spaced through slots around its periphery. Each through slot contains four layers of the flat wire conductors. The stator also includes a copper busbar. Each flat wire conductor includes a plug-in hairpin and a plug-in terminal block. The plug-in hairpin is inserted into the through slot to form a three-phase winding. Each phase winding outputs four connectors. There are twelve plug-in terminal blocks, each plugged into a corresponding through slot. The copper busbar is connected to the plug-in terminal blocks to achieve the corresponding connection method.

[0007] The motor stator using the above technical solution retains the advantages of the original hairpin motor stator, such as high slot fill factor, good heat dissipation, small size, and low AC loss. Since this stator has three-phase windings with four output terminals per phase, for a total of twelve terminals, four winding schemes can be achieved by using standard copper busbars to connect the twelve terminals in different ways: single Y-shaped, single delta, double Y-shaped, and double delta. This can solve the various performance requirements of motors for different vehicle models and application scenarios. At the same time, it solves the problem of frequently changing tooling fixtures when producing flat wire motors with the above different winding schemes, reducing production line investment and improving production efficiency.

[0008] Further specified, the number of through slots is forty-eight, and the plug-in hair clips are six first hair clips, thirty-six second hair clips, twelve third hair clips, and thirty-six fourth hair clips, wherein each plug-in hair clip includes an upper connecting part, a left straight insertion part, a right straight insertion part, and a lower welding part, and each wire clip includes a lower insertion end and an upper wiring end.

[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the welding part of the first layer of the plug-in hairpin or the insertion end of the lower part of the wire card in the same through slot is fixedly connected to the welding part of the second layer of the plug-in hairpin; the bottom of the welding part of the fourth layer of the plug-in hairpin or the insertion end of the lower part of the wire card in the same through slot is fixedly connected to the welding part of the third layer of the plug-in hairpin.

[0010] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the fixed connection is defined as welding.

[0011] In addition, this utility model provides an electric motor, including the motor stator described in the above technical solution.

[0012] Furthermore, this utility model provides methods for using this motor stator, namely, different wiring methods; there are four different wiring methods in total.

The first busbar connects to connectors 9, 11, and 12; the second busbar connects to connectors 2 and 5; the third busbar connects to connectors 1 and 3; and the fourth busbar connects to connectors 4 and 6. Connectors 7, 8, and 10 provide three-phase outputs (U, V, W), forming a single Y-connection. This connection method offers higher torque and lower line current, and can be used with a low-cost controller. It is achieved by soldering standard copper busbars to different connectors.

[0014] The second wiring method uses six copper busbars. The first busbar connects to the eighth and twelfth connectors for the V phase output; the second busbar connects to the ninth and tenth connectors for the W phase output; the third busbar connects to the seventh and eleventh connectors for the U phase output; the fourth busbar connects to the first and third connectors; the fifth busbar connects to the second and fifth connectors; and the sixth busbar connects to the fourth and sixth connectors, forming a single delta connection. This connection method offers moderate phase current and higher speed than the Y-connection, making it suitable for high-speed tricycles. It is achieved by welding standard copper busbars to different connectors.

[0015] The third wiring method uses four copper busbars. The first busbar connects to the fifth and eighth connectors for the V phase output; the second busbar connects to the sixth and tenth connectors for the W phase output; the third busbar connects to the third and seventh connectors for the U phase output; and the fourth busbar connects to the first, second, fourth, ninth, eleventh, and twelfth connectors, forming a double Y-shaped connection.

The first busbar connects to the second, sixth, tenth, and eleventh connectors, outputting the V phase; the second busbar connects to the first, fifth, eighth, and ninth connectors, outputting the W phase; and the third busbar connects to the third, fourth, seventh, and twelfth connectors, outputting the U phase, forming a double-delta connection. This connection method is suitable for high-power, high-speed motors and is achieved by welding standard copper busbars to different connectors. Attached Figure Description

[0051] The motor stator using the above technical solution retains the advantages of the original hairpin motor stator, such as high slot fill factor, good heat dissipation, small size, and low AC loss. Since this stator has three-phase windings with four output terminals per phase, for a total of twelve terminals, four winding schemes can be achieved by using standard copper busbars to connect the twelve terminals in different ways: single Y-shaped, single delta, double Y-shaped, and double delta. This can solve the various performance requirements of motors for different vehicle models and application scenarios. At the same time, it solves the problem of frequently changing tooling fixtures when producing flat wire motors with the above different winding schemes, reducing production line investment and improving production efficiency.
