TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to new energy automobile drive motor technical field especially, it is a kind of new energy automobile drive motor conducting ring subassembly structure. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, the reliability of new energy vehicle drive motor is also increasingly high, with the continuous improvement of voltage platform, the probability of motor bearing electric corrosion that follows will greatly increase, and bearing electric corrosion is caused by the shaft voltage of motor. The shaft voltage is the potential difference between the two ends of the motor shaft or between the shaft and the bearing, and the shaft current is the loop formed by the shaft neck, oil film, bearing, base and base bottom. When the oil film is damaged, an electric current is generated in the loop. Since the bearing ball and raceway are point contact, the discharge current density is large, and instantaneous discharge occurs between the bearing ball and raceway, forming an electric spark, which produces high temperature and causes the surface of the raceway and the ball to be burned, resulting in pitting and grooves on the raceway / ball ring. Long-term such will form a washboard pattern in the raceway, and the oil in the bearing will also be damaged, which will cause the bearing to be damaged and the motor to malfunction, resulting in great economic loss. Therefore, the motor shaft voltage problem must be paid enough attention to.
[0003] Current motor shaft voltage improvement measures are mainly:
[0004] 1. Take insulation measures to block the path between the shaft, bearing and end cover.
[0005] 2. Use a conductive measure to conduct the shaft current on the shaft to the end cover through other paths, thereby protecting the bearing.
[0006] 3. Use a block and a through measure, that is, take a scheme of one end insulation and one end conduction at both ends of the motor. This scheme can reduce the cost while ensuring the improvement of shaft current.
[0007] The main schemes of measure 1 are: 1) ceramic ball bearings are used at the front and rear ends of the motor, which can effectively block the passage between the shaft and the end cover, and avoid bearing damage caused by shaft current. The cost of this measure is relatively high. 2) Insulation measures are taken at the bearing position on the shaft to block the passage between the shaft and the inner ring of the bearing. The manufacturing and installation process of this scheme is relatively complex.
[0008] The main schemes of measure 2 are: taking a conductive measure at the front or rear end of the motor, mainly including conductive brush, conductive oil seal, graphite carbon brush and conductive grease. Through the conductive way, the current on the shaft can be conducted to the end cover. The durability of this measure needs to be verified.
[0009] The main scheme of measure 3 is: insulation measures are adopted at the output end of the motor, and conduction measures are adopted at the non-output end, which can reduce the cost compared with the measures of adopting insulation at both ends, and can also ensure good shaft current improvement purposes.
