[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0034] Firstly, see Figures 1-4 This utility model discloses a lightweight rotor mechanism 1, including an output shaft 13, a rotor core 11 and a magnet 12. The magnet 12 is installed on the outer surface of the rotor core 11, and the output shaft 13 passes through the rotor core 11.
[0035] The rotor core 11 includes an inner ring 111, a rotor yoke 112, spokes 113, and a magnetic bridge 114. The inner ring 111, the rotor yoke 112, and the spokes 113 are integrally formed. The inner ring 111 and the rotor yoke 112 are concentrically arranged, and there is a hollow space between the inner ring 111 and the rotor yoke 112. The two ends of the spokes 113 are respectively connected to the inner ring 111 and the rotor yoke 112. The magnetic bridge 114 is disposed on the surface of the rotor yoke 112 near the inner ring 111.
[0036] The inner ring 111 has a through hole at its center, through which the output shaft 13 passes, and the inner diameter of the through hole matches the outer diameter of the output shaft 13.
[0037] Specifically, the rotor core 11 is hollowly arranged, the inner ring 111 and the rotor yoke 112 are connected through the spokes 113, and the rotational torque transmission is performed between the two through the spokes 113. Due to the hollow arrangement, the moment of inertia of the rotor is reduced. The inner surface of the rotor core 11 is additionally provided with a magnetic bridge 114, so as to avoid that the thickness of the rotor yoke 112 is too thin, prevent the magnetic density saturation between the two adjacent magnets 12, and improve the magnetic field performance of the rotor. That is, the spokes 113 are hollowly arranged, and the rotor yoke 112 between the spokes 113 is provided with the magnetic bridge 114. The arrangement of the rotor core 11 not only reduces the overall weight of the rotor mechanism, but also avoids the magnetic density saturation of the two adjacent magnets 12.
[0038] The magnet 12 is adhered to the outer surface of the rotor core 11 by glue, that is, the magnet 12 is attached to the rotor core 11, so as to avoid that the magnet 12 falls off from the rotor core 11.
[0039] The spokes 113 arranged on the rotor core 11 are uniformly arranged, and the space between the inner ring 111 and the rotor yoke 112 is divided according to the number of the spokes 113.
[0040] It can be understood that there is a hollow space between the rotor core 11 and the inner ring 111. The spokes 113 connect the rotor core 11 and the inner ring 111, so that the two can transmit torque, and the output shaft 13 outputs corresponding torque. The rotor core 11 realizes large-area hollowing, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the rotor mechanism.
[0041] The number of the spokes 113 is less than or equal to half of the number of the magnets 12. That is, the number of the spokes 113 is 1 / 2, 1 / 3, 1 / 4, etc. of the number of the magnets 12, which can be set according to actual conditions. In the embodiment, the number of the spokes 113 is half of the number of the magnets 12.
[0042] Optionally, the pole number of the rotor core 11 can be set to 6 poles, 8 poles, 10 poles, 12 poles, 14 poles, etc. The pole number of the rotor core 11 can be adjusted according to specific requirements.
[0043] The magnetic bridge 114 or the spoke 113 is arranged between two adjacent magnets 12, and the magnetic bridge 114 is arranged between any two adjacent spokes 113.
[0044] It can be understood that the magnets 12 are equidistantly distributed on the outer surface of the rotor core 11, the spokes 113 and the magnetic bridges 114 are arranged on the inner surface of the rotor core 11, the magnetic bridges 114 correspond to the rotor yokes 112 between adjacent spokes 113, and the arrangement of the magnetic bridges 114 can reduce the number of the spokes 113, reduce the weight of the rotor core 11, and in addition, the magnetic bridges 114 can compensate for the removal of the spokes 113 and increase the magnetic conductive capacity at the positions.
[0045] Since the magnetic field adjacent to the rotor yoke 112 is the highest magnetic field strength position of the rotor, by arranging the magnetic bridges 114 and the spokes 113, the rotor yoke 112 can be widened, the magnetic field density at the position can be reduced, and the weight of the rotor core 11 can be reduced to balance the performance and lightweight requirements.
[0046] As an embodiment, the number of the magnetic bridges 114 and the number of the spokes 113 are equal to the number of the magnets 12. The arrangement of the spokes 113 can reduce the magnetic field density at the position, and in addition, the magnetic bridges 114 can compensate for the removal of the spokes 113 and increase the magnetic conductive capacity at the positions.
[0047] Optionally, the shape of one of the magnetic bridges 114 is rectangular, triangular, petal-shaped, or any other smooth transition form.
[0048] The outer surface of the rotor core 11 is provided with at least two magnet clamping jaws 115, and the adjacent magnet clamping jaws 115 clamp the magnets 12.
[0049] Specifically, the magnet clamping jaws 115 are arranged in a dovetail groove shape, and two adjacent magnet clamping jaws 115 clamp the magnets 12 as a whole to prevent the magnets 12 from being thrown out due to high rotation speed.
[0050] In a second aspect, the utility model discloses a motor which comprises the lightweight rotor mechanism 1 and the balance mud, and the balance mud is arranged on the surface of the lightweight rotor mechanism 1.
[0051] Specifically, the motor adopts the lightweight rotor mechanism 1 in the form of a hollow spoke 113, which reduces the weight of the rotor, so that the overall weight of the motor is also reduced. Since the weight of the rotor mechanism is reduced, the moment of inertia of the rotor is also reduced. At the same time, the magnetic field performance is also improved. The lightweight rotor mechanism 1 is designed in the shape of a bread, which reduces the motor tooth slot torque.
