Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of permanent magnet synchronous motors, and in particular to a permanent magnet synchronous motor in which the inner and outer rotors share the same stator structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of power electronics technology and the improved cost-effectiveness of permanent magnet materials, permanent magnet synchronous motors have been widely used in recent years due to their advantages such as simple structure, good control performance, and high efficiency. Classified by rotor structure, permanent magnet synchronous motors can be divided into internal rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors and external rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors; classified by the number of rotors, they are generally divided into single-rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors and dual-rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors.

[0003] Currently, most applications utilize internal rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors. These motors have low rotor inertia and fast dynamic response, making them suitable as servo motors for applications requiring frequent starts and stops. Furthermore, internal rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors have a wide speed range, making them suitable for high-speed motors exceeding 10,000 revolutions per minute. External rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors, on the other hand, have high torque density, allowing for higher output torque for the same motor size, and also possess a large starting torque. However, their disadvantages include high rotor inertia, slow dynamic response, making them unsuitable for servo control and high-speed operation.

[0004] In some applications, a motor needs to have a large starting torque and be able to reach a high speed. Currently, it is difficult for a simple internal rotor motor or external rotor motor to meet the requirements of large starting torque and high speed at the same time. Dual rotor motors and permanent magnet synchronous motors are more suitable for this application.

[0005] In 2003, Academician TAL i Po and his team in the United States proposed a dual-rotor permanent magnet motor. In recent years, scholars have conducted extensive theoretical research on dual-rotor permanent magnet motors. Professor Lin Mingyao of Southeast University conducted electromagnetic analysis on dual-rotor motors, studying the influence of rotor pole width and stator slot chamfer on back electromotive force and cogging torque. Zhu Xiaoyong, Mo Lihong, and others from Jiangsu University conducted in-depth research on a stator permanent magnet dual-rotor motor. Bai Jingang and his team at Harbin Institute of Technology solved the contradiction between the electromagnetic performance and mechanical strength of the flux-modulated rotor in traditional flux-modulated dual-rotor motors. Professor Li Xianglin and his team proposed a dual-rotor flux-switching motor using high-temperature superconducting windings for direct-drive wind energy conversion. In addition, scholars have conducted extensive research on dual-rotor counter-rotating permanent magnet synchronous motors and dual parallel rotor permanent magnet synchronous motors. The above research has laid a theoretical foundation for the application of dual-rotor permanent magnet motors, but further verification and optimization are needed, combined with motor manufacturing processes and motor structures.

[0006] The radial flux dual-rotor permanent magnet motor with ring winding proposed by Academician TAL IPO and his team in the United States has significantly improved the power density and efficiency of the motor. Professor Qu Ronghai of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China has also conducted further research on this motor. However, the inner and outer rotors of this motor adopt different rotor structures, making the motor structure complex and difficult to apply in engineering.

[0007] Among them, Chinese patent CN112838728B proposes a dual-rotor permanent magnet synchronous motor in which the inner and outer rotors share the same motor shaft to output torque. It has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture in an engineering manner, and has high operational stability. However, this type of motor has two sets of stator windings, requiring two drivers to control the stator windings corresponding to the inner and outer rotors respectively, which increases the difficulty and cost of the motor control system.

[0008] Chinese patent CN213782999U also proposes another type of dual-rotor permanent magnet synchronous motor, in which the inner and outer rotors share a single motor stator and only one set of stator windings, requiring only one motor drive. However, the stator core of this motor is formed by splicing together multiple circumferentially distributed core units, and the stator core may become loose during motor operation. In addition, in order to achieve the sharing of the same motor shaft for output torque between the inner and outer rotors, the motor uses four bearings. Ensuring the coaxiality of the four bearings during manufacturing will increase the complexity of the process. Summary of the Invention

[0009] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a permanent magnet synchronous motor in which the inner and outer rotors share the same stator structure. It adopts an integrally formed stator core, which solves the problem that the stator core may loosen during motor operation. In addition, the motor only needs to use two bearings to realize that the inner and outer rotors share the same motor shaft to output torque, which makes it easier to reduce the difficulty of manufacturing process.

[0010] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0027] The stator core is connected to the front and rear covers via a stator connecting rod that passes through the stator through-hole.

[0028] Furthermore, the number of permanent magnet strips in the inner rotor and the number of permanent magnet strips in the outer rotor are equal.

[0029] Furthermore, it also includes an outer rotor end cover;

[0030] The outer rotor is fixedly connected to the shaft via an outer rotor end cap.

[0031] Furthermore, the stator winding is wound around the connection portion of the internal stator teeth and the connection portion of the external stator teeth.

[0032] Furthermore, the stator winding is wound around the stator body and located between two stator teeth.

[0033] Furthermore, the stator windings include stator U1 winding, stator V1 winding, stator W1 winding, stator U2 winding, stator V2 winding, and stator W2 winding;

[0034] in,

[0035] The head end of the stator U1 winding serves as the lead-out terminal of the U-phase winding, and the tail end of the stator U1 winding is connected to the head end of the stator U2 winding.

[0037] The head end of the stator W1 winding serves as the lead-out terminal of the W phase winding, and the tail end of the stator W1 winding is connected to the head end of the stator W2 winding.

[0038] The tail ends of the stator U2 winding, the stator V2 winding, and the stator W2 winding are connected.

[0039] Compared with existing technologies, the principles and advantages of this technical solution are as follows:

[0040] 1.

[0053] The stator core 1 is installed between the front end cover 3 and the rear end cover 4; the stator winding 2 is wound on the stator core 1; the rotating shaft 7 passes through the front end cover 3 and the rear end cover 4, and is rotatably connected to the front end cover 3 and the rear end cover 4 through the first bearing 8 and the second bearing 9 respectively.

[0054] The inner rotor 5 and the outer rotor 6 are respectively located on the inner and outer sides of the stator core 1, and are both fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 7 (the outer rotor 6 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 7 through the outer rotor end cover 18). The inner rotor 5 is provided with an inner rotor permanent magnet strip 10 on the outer circumference, and the outer rotor 6 is provided with an outer rotor permanent magnet strip 11 on the inner circumference.
