Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of asynchronous servo motor manufacturing technology, specifically relating to a rotor for a low-inertia asynchronous servo motor. Background Technology
[0002] The rotors of asynchronous servo motors are mostly squirrel-cage cast aluminum rotors (such as CN 209233593). U, entitled "A Structure for Preventing the Retraction of a Cast Aluminum Rotor in an Explosion-Proof Motor", includes a cast aluminum rotor and a shaft. The cast aluminum rotor is heat-fitted onto the shaft. The shaft is equipped with a core stop, a core stop platform, and a bearing stop. The core stop is located in the middle of the shaft as a positioning joint for the cast aluminum rotor. The outer diameter of the cast aluminum rotor is D, and its length is L. The distance from the root of the bearing stop to the root of the core stop platform is L2. L1-L2 represents the retraction amount of the cast aluminum rotor. When D < 200mm and L < 300mm, the retraction amount (L1-L2) is 0-2mm. When 200 ≤ D < 400mm and 300 ≤ L < 500mm, the retraction amount (L1-L2) is 2-4mm. When 400mm ≤ D and 500mm ≤ L, the retraction amount (L1-L2) is 4-5mm. To meet the fast response characteristics of the servo motor, it is necessary to reduce the moment of inertia. Since the moment of inertia is proportional to the square of the outer diameter and the length, the design of the rotor—the most important rotating component inside the motor—is crucial. To maintain the motor's torque, power, and other performance characteristics while keeping the rotor volume constant, the rotor needs to be made thin and long.
[0003] Currently, cast aluminum rotors are mainly manufactured using pressure casting or centrifugal casting. For cast aluminum rotors with a large length-to-diameter ratio (length ≥ 2 times diameter), it is difficult to guarantee the aluminum filling rate regardless of the method. This often results in incomplete filling, large air holes in the end rings, or thin or broken bars in the guide bars, which affects the motor performance. Furthermore, as the length of the cast aluminum rotor increases, heat will accumulate and be difficult to dissipate, eventually leading to excessively high temperatures.
[0004] To address the two issues mentioned above with asynchronous servo motors, our company has developed a rotor for low-inertia asynchronous servo motors. Utility Model Content
[0005] Design objective: To avoid the shortcomings of the prior art, this paper designs a rotor for a low-inertia asynchronous servo motor that not only has good heat dissipation but also improves the aluminum filler ratio of the rotor and facilitates encoder installation.
[0006] Design scheme: To achieve the above design objectives.
[0007] 1. A cast aluminum rotor is mounted on the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section of the rotating shaft. The length of the cast aluminum rotor is greater than or equal to twice the diameter of the cast aluminum rotor. Multiple ventilation grooves are provided on the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section, and the ventilation grooves are arranged parallel to the symmetrical center line of the rotating shaft. The length of the ventilation grooves is greater than the length of the cast aluminum rotor. An annular positioning shoulder composed of multiple protrusions is provided on the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section, and the annular positioning shoulder is located at the rear end of the rotating shaft. When the rear end face of the cast aluminum rotor mounted on the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section and the front end face of the annular positioning shoulder are in full contact, the groove heads on both sides of the ventilation groove are exposed at the corresponding ends of the cast aluminum rotor. This design is one of the technical features of this utility model. The purpose of this design is as follows: a cast aluminum rotor is mounted on the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section of the rotating shaft. The length of the cast aluminum rotor is greater than or equal to twice the diameter of the cast aluminum rotor. Multiple ventilation grooves are provided on the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section, and the ventilation grooves are arranged parallel to the symmetrical center line of the rotating shaft. The length of the ventilation grooves is greater than the length of the cast aluminum rotor. An annular positioning shoulder composed of multiple protrusions is provided on the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section, and the annular positioning shoulder is located at the rear end of the rotating shaft. When the rear end face of the cast aluminum rotor mounted on the cast aluminum rotor mounting shaft section and the front end face of the annular positioning shoulder are in full contact, the groove heads on both sides of the ventilation grooves are exposed at the corresponding ends of the cast aluminum rotor. The arrangement of multiple ventilation grooves (6) on the rotating shaft not only increases the heat dissipation area of the rotating shaft, but also forms multiple air paths between the inner circle of the cast aluminum rotor and the rotating shaft, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the rotor.
[0008] 2. The cast aluminum rotor is constructed by welding a left half of the cast aluminum rotor and a right half of the cast aluminum rotor. The length of the cast aluminum rotor is 600mm and the diameter of the cast aluminum rotor is 168.5mm. The length of the left half of the cast aluminum rotor is 290mm, the length of the right half of the cast aluminum rotor is 290mm, and the weld spacing between the left half of the cast aluminum rotor and the right half of the cast aluminum rotor is 20mm. This is the second technical feature of this utility model. The purpose of this design is that the cast aluminum rotor is constructed by welding a left half and a right half of the cast aluminum rotor together. The length of the cast aluminum rotor is 600mm and the diameter is 168.5mm. The length of the left half of the cast aluminum rotor is 290mm, and the length of the right half of the cast aluminum rotor is 290mm. The weld spacing between the left and right half of the cast aluminum rotor is 20mm. The cast aluminum rotor is constructed by welding two equal-length left and right cast aluminum rotors together. The length of each shorter cast aluminum rotor does not exceed twice the outer diameter of the rotor. This allows for a significant improvement in the cast aluminum filling rate of the rotor using normal casting processes, thereby improving the performance of the motor.
[0009] 3. A welded section is formed between the left and right halves of the cast aluminum rotor by welding. An annular groove is formed between the inner circular surface of the welded section, the inner surface of the left and right halves of the cast aluminum rotor, and the outer circular surface of the welded section is flush with the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor. This is the third technical feature of this utility model. The purpose of this design is that the welded section between the left and right halves of the cast aluminum rotor, the annular groove formed between the inner circular surface of the welded section, the inner surface of the left and right halves of the cast aluminum rotor, and the outer circular surface of the welded section being flush with the outer circular surface of the cast aluminum rotor, allows multiple ventilation slots to be identical, thus further improving the heat dissipation effect of the rotor.
[0010] 4. The fourth technical feature of this utility model is that the ventilation slot has a width of 16mm and a depth of 6mm, with the exposed end portion of the cast aluminum rotor in the ventilation slot having a length of not less than 9.5mm. This design aims to balance the strength of the rotating shaft with the ventilation effect of the ventilation slot.
[0011] 5. The fifth technical feature of this utility model is that the tail end of the rotating shaft is provided with an encoder mounting post, and the center line of symmetry of the encoder mounting post coincides with the center line of symmetry of the rotating shaft. One side of the outer circular surface of the encoder mounting post is milled into a flat surface. The purpose of this design is that the encoder is easily fixed to the encoder mounting post by set screws.
[0012] Technical solution: A rotor for a low-inertia asynchronous servo motor includes a shaft and a cast aluminum rotor. A cast aluminum rotor is mounted on a shaft section of the shaft. The length of the cast aluminum rotor is greater than or equal to twice its diameter. Multiple ventilation slots are provided on the outer circumference of the shaft section, and these slots are parallel to the symmetrical center line of the shaft. The length of each ventilation slot is greater than the length of the cast aluminum rotor. An annular positioning shoulder, composed of multiple protrusions, is located on the outer circumference of the shaft section at the rear end of the shaft. When the rear end face of the cast aluminum rotor mounted on the shaft section is in surface contact with the front end face of the annular positioning shoulder, the two sides of the ventilation slots expose the corresponding ends of the cast aluminum rotor.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the rotor for a low-inertia asynchronous servo motor not only has good heat dissipation, but also improves the aluminum filling rate of the rotor, and facilitates encoder installation. Attached Figure Description
