Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor technology, and in particular to a motor end cover. Background Technology

[0002] During the operation of a motor with brushes and a commutator, electrical sparks and radio frequency (RF) interference signals are generated when the commutator rotates relative to the carbon brushes. These RF interference signals can interfere with circuits connected to the power supply or other unshielded circuits near the motor. Chokes or capacitors are typically installed on the motor to filter out this RF interference signal. In existing technology, the capacitors in the motor end cover are prone to movement during motor operation or under external force, thus compromising the continuity of their filtering effect and necessitating an improvement in the motor's EMC rating. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application provides a motor end cover that limits the capacitor, thereby reducing electromagnetic interference caused by capacitor vibration. This allows the capacitor to better perform its filtering and energy storage functions, effectively suppressing high-frequency noise and electromagnetic radiation generated by the motor, and improving the electromagnetic compatibility level of the motor.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a motor end cover, comprising:

[0005] The end cap body has several mounting shells symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting side.

[0006] The conductive component includes a conductive sheet exposed at its upper end within a mounting housing, a connector disposed at the upper end of the mounting housing, and a capacitor disposed between the mounting housings. The conductive sheet is electrically connected to the capacitor via the connector. The connector includes a connecting portion for electrically connecting to the upper end of the conductive sheet, a clamping portion extending from the lower end of the connecting portion along the side wall of the mounting housing, and a support portion extending from the end of the clamping portion toward the centerline. The lower end of the capacitor abuts against the support portion, and both sides of the capacitor abut against the clamping portion. A baffle for limiting the front and rear ends of the capacitor is disposed between the mounting housings at one end.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0008] This design provides comprehensive, multi-point stability and limitation for the capacitor through the clamping and supporting parts of the connector, as well as the baffle. The clamping part extends from the lower end of the connector along the side wall of the mounting housing, tightly clamping both sides of the capacitor to prevent it from moving horizontally. The supporting part extends from the end of the clamping part toward the centerline, providing solid support for the lower end of the capacitor to prevent it from swaying vertically. The baffle is placed between the mounting housings to limit the front and rear ends of the capacitor, ensuring that the capacitor remains fixed in the mounting housing. This stable capacitor limiting design helps reduce the vibration and movement of the capacitor during motor operation, thereby reducing the electromagnetic interference caused by the capacitor's vibration. This design allows the capacitor to better perform its filtering and energy storage functions, effectively suppressing high-frequency noise and electromagnetic radiation generated by the motor, and improving the electromagnetic compatibility level of the motor.

[0009] Stable capacitor limiting not only helps maintain the stability of the capacitor's position, but also ensures a reliable electrical connection between the conductive plate and the capacitor. The connector design allows the conductive plate to make tight contact with the capacitor's electrode terminals, reducing the risk of electrical failures due to poor contact.

[0010] As an improvement, a limiting protrusion is provided on the end cap body corresponding to the rear end of the capacitor. The limiting protrusion is located between the mounting shells. The front end of the capacitor abuts against the baffle, and the rear end of the capacitor abuts against the limiting protrusion. The front end of the capacitor abuts against the baffle, and the rear end is blocked by the limiting protrusion. This double fixing method can ensure that the position of the capacitor is stable in the mounting shell and is not easy to shake or shift.

[0011] As an improvement, the clamping part includes two clamping plates at the front and rear ends, and a spring piece between the clamping plates. An adjustment groove is provided at the connection between the mounting shell and the baffle, corresponding to the spring piece. The spring piece tends to tilt towards the side wall of the adjustment groove. Located between the two clamping plates, the spring piece has a certain degree of elasticity. When the size or shape of the capacitor changes slightly, the spring piece can adapt to these changes through its elastic deformation, thereby ensuring that the capacitor is always firmly clamped. The tendency of the spring piece to tilt towards the side wall of the adjustment groove provides a smoother path for capacitor installation, allowing the capacitor to slide more easily into the clamping part and reach the correct position under the guidance of the spring piece.

[0012] As an improvement, a bent fixing part extends upward from one side of the connector, and a mounting groove is provided on the side wall of the end cap body. The shape of the fixing part matches the shape of the bottom surface of the mounting groove, and the lower end of the fixing part abuts against the bottom surface of the mounting groove, forming a stable support structure. This design ensures that the connection between the connector and the end cap body is firm and reliable, and is not prone to loosening or falling off.

[0013] As an improvement, the conductive sheet includes several conductive parts vertically arranged at the front and rear ends of the mounting side of the end cap body, and a transition part connecting the conductive parts. The upper end of the conductive parts is exposed inside the mounting shell, and the transition part is located at the lower end of the end cap body. The bottom surface of the end cap body has a through hole for the conductive parts, and the lower end of the conductive part passes through the through hole and connects to the transition part. The end of the transition part extends to the end away from the end cap body, and the upper end of the conductive part is exposed inside the loading space. This design ensures that the current can be smoothly transmitted from inside the mounting shell through the conductive parts. The exposed conductive parts provide a larger contact area, which helps to reduce contact resistance and improve conductivity.

[0014] As an improvement, the outer walls of the front and rear ends of the end cap body are arc-shaped, and the direction of the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the end cap body is parallel to the tangent of the arc. The direction of the mounting shell and conductive parts is consistent with the direction of the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the end cap body. Since the direction of the mounting shell and conductive parts is consistent with the direction of the inner walls of the front and rear ends of the end cap body, this design promotes tight assembly between components. It reduces the gaps between components during assembly, making the overall structure more compact and stable.

[0015] As an improvement, a bearing housing is located at the center of the end cap body, and a brush holder extending to the side of the conductive sheet near the bearing housing is provided. The brush holder is centrally symmetrical, and a brush is mounted on the brush holder. The extension of the brush holder to the side near the bearing housing ensures close contact between the brush and the conductive component. This design helps reduce resistance and energy loss during power transmission, improving power transmission efficiency. At the same time, the centrally symmetrical brush holder layout helps ensure uniform current distribution on the conductive sheet, further improving electrical performance.

[0016] As an improvement, the brush holder includes a fixing section disposed between the inner sidewalls of the mounting housing and the front and rear ends of the end cover body, and a mounting section extending from the fixing section to the side near the bearing seat. The upper end of the conductive part is electrically connected to the fixing section through a connecting piece. The brush is mounted at the end of the mounting section. The fixing section of the brush holder is aligned with the inner sidewalls of the front and rear ends of the end cover body, making the brush holder compact.

[0017] As an improvement, the connecting piece includes a mounting end electrically connected to the upper end of the conductive part, and a connecting end extending from the lower end of the mounting end along the fixed section and the first end of the mounting section. The connecting end is fixedly connected to the fixed section and the first end of the mounting section, and the mounting end is directly electrically connected to the upper end of the conductive part, ensuring that power can be stably transmitted from the conductive part to the connecting piece. The connecting end extends along the fixed section and the first end of the mounting section and is fixedly connected, forming a stable electrical connection path, reducing the number of electrical connection points, thereby reducing the risk of electrical faults caused by poor connections.

[0018] As an improvement, the connecting part is provided with a connecting through hole corresponding to the conductive part, and the mounting end is provided with a mounting through hole corresponding to the conductive part. The upper end of the conductive part passes through the connecting through hole and the mounting through hole in sequence and is electrically connected to the connecting part and the mounting end. The conductive part is directly connected to the connecting part and the mounting end through the connecting through hole and the mounting through hole, which reduces intermediate links and improves the reliability of electrical connection.
