[0029] As shown in Figure 1 、 2 According to the first aspect embodiment of the utility model, a capacitor switching speed regulation motor, including stator module 100 and rotor module, the stator module 100 is electrified to drive the rotor module rotates, wherein, the stator module 100 includes main winding assembly 200, auxiliary winding assembly 300 and running capacitor assembly 400, the first end of the main winding assembly 200 is connected with the first end of the auxiliary winding assembly 300 and is used to access the first phase of alternating current power, the capacitance of the running capacitor assembly 400 is adjustable, the tail end of the auxiliary winding assembly 300 is connected with the first end of the running capacitor assembly 400, the first end of the main winding assembly 200 is connected with the tail end of the running capacitor assembly 400 and is used to access the second phase of alternating current power.
[0030] This design employs an AC motor. In an AC motor, the stator module 100 within the housing typically includes a main winding assembly 200 and an auxiliary winding assembly 300. During the operation of the AC motor, the main winding assembly 200 generates a main magnetic field to drive the rotor to rotate, while the auxiliary winding assembly generates a secondary magnetic field to reduce the harmonic components of the motor current, thereby reducing operating losses and heat, and improving the magnetic flux and reluctance distribution to enhance motor efficiency. A running capacitor assembly 400 is also connected between the main winding assembly 200 and the auxiliary winding assembly 300. Traditionally, the running capacitor assembly 400 has a fixed capacitance value and only performs power factor compensation and current filtering to smooth the waveform and stabilize motor operation. A starting capacitor assembly can also be connected between the main winding assembly 200 and the auxiliary winding assembly 300. The starting capacitor assembly is connected in series with a speed switch. In the initial stage of startup, the speed switch is closed, and the starting capacitor assembly and the running capacitor assembly 400 are connected in parallel, increasing the capacitance and providing starting torque to help the motor start smoothly. Once the motor speed reaches a certain level, the speed switch is opened.
[0031] The capacitance of the running capacitor component 400 in this design is adjustable. When the value of the running capacitor component 400 is changed, the current flowing through the main winding component 200 and the auxiliary winding component 300 changes, thereby modulating the speed of the motor. Specifically, when the capacitance of the running capacitor component 400 is small, the motor current increases and the speed increases; when the capacitance of the running capacitor component 400 is large, the current decreases and the speed decreases. This design can achieve speed regulation and save on the application cost of the motor.

[0033] When the switch is open, the capacitance of the running capacitor assembly 400 is the same as that of the first capacitor. When the switch is closed, the first capacitor and the second capacitor are connected in parallel, and the capacitance of the running capacitor assembly 400 increases.
[0034] In some embodiments of this invention, the capacitance values of the first capacitor and the second capacitor are equal; for example, both the first capacitor and the second capacitor can be 6uF.
[0035] In some embodiments of the utility model, the first capacitor and the second capacitor are not equal in capacitance, for example, the first capacitor can be 3uF, the second capacitor can be 5uF, or the first capacitor can be 5uF, and the second capacitor can be 7uF.
