Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor technology, specifically a kinetic motor. Background Technology

[0002] Electric motors are common power output components in mechanical equipment. In today's various equipment fields that require power output, such as electric vehicles, ships, airplanes, and drones, the performance requirements for motors are becoming increasingly stringent. When traditional motors are subjected to high power and high current conditions, when the current reaches hundreds or even thousands or tens of thousands of amperes, the copper and iron losses of the coil current increase dramatically. This not only leads to a significant reduction in motor efficiency but also causes serious overheating problems, affecting the stability and service life of the motor. Moreover, if it is necessary to manufacture motors with higher or even ultra-high power, the exacerbation of the above-mentioned loss problems makes the technology extremely difficult and the cost significantly increased, making it difficult to meet the ever-increasing power demand.

[0003] In addition, the structure of traditional motors is relatively fixed, making it impossible to couple multiple motors. This results in low space utilization efficiency and makes it difficult to flexibly combine them according to different power requirements. In scenarios requiring high power output, a single motor often cannot provide sufficient power, while the combination of multiple motors that cannot be coupled together faces problems such as difficulty in merging power and unstable collaborative work. This invisibly limits their application in some fields with demanding power requirements. Utility Model Content

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a kinetic motor, comprising multiple sub-motors arranged in a circular, triangular, square, or polygonal pattern, wherein the multiple sub-motors are further arranged in a longitudinal, multi-layered manner to form motor units, and the output shafts of the sub-motors of adjacent layers of motor units are connected by couplings for transmission.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, bearings are fitted at the points where the power output shaft intersects with the housing, gear mounting bracket, gearbox, housing cover, and water-cooled box.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1) The kinetic motor of this utility model adopts a multi-layer series or parallel architecture of circular or polygonal sub-motors. With the rigid fixing design of the outer shell and motor bracket, it can achieve distributed current carrying of at least several thousand amperes.

Detailed Implementation

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Example

[0024] Please see Figure 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a kinetic motor, including multiple sub-motors 10 arranged in a circle, triangle, square or polygon, the multiple sub-motors 10 are also arranged in a longitudinal multi-layer distribution to form motor small units 100, and the output shafts of the sub-motors 10 of adjacent motor small units 100 are connected by a coupling 110 for corresponding transmission. The multi-layer motor small units 100 are covered with an outer shell 200, and a motor bracket 210 for installing and fixing the sub-motors 10 is installed inside the outer shell 200. A power output mechanism 300 is installed on the top of the outer shell 200, and a cooling mechanism 400 is installed on the bottom of the outer shell 200.

[0025] The output shafts of multiple sub-motors 10 located in the top-level motor unit 100 are connected to the power output mechanism 300 for transmission, and the cooling mechanism 400 also has a control mechanism 500 installed inside.

[0026] The control mechanism 500 controls multiple sub-motors 10 to output power synchronously. The power is transmitted to the power output mechanism 300 for power adjustment and output, and finally forms a high-power-output kinetic motor.

[0027] Specifically, this type of kinetic motor utilizes multiple sub-motors 10 arranged in a circular, triangular, square, or polygonal pattern, longitudinally distributed in multiple layers to form motor units 100. These units, rigidly fixed to the housing 200 and motor bracket 210, enable distributed current carrying of at least several thousand amperes. Each sub-motor 10 only bears a branch current, fundamentally reducing copper and iron losses by at least several thousand amperes. This solves the problems of low efficiency and low space utilization in traditional multi-motor systems, which cannot achieve multi-power coupling. Furthermore, it allows for arbitrary combinations based on actual power requirements, achieving high kinetic energy output. The modular design allows for unlimited expansion of the power unit, meeting the power needs of various scenarios, from drones to ships. The final shape of the kinetic motor can be referenced... Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, they are either cylindrical or cuboid shapes, but are not limited to these two shapes.

[0028] Taking an electric vehicle as an example, when using this type of kinetic energy motor as the power output component, during vehicle acceleration, the control mechanism 500 receives the driver's acceleration command and controls multiple sub-motors 10 to start synchronously. The output shafts of the sub-motors 10 in adjacent motor units 100 are connected via couplings 110 to ensure smooth power transmission. The output shaft of the sub-motor 10 in the top-level motor unit 100 is connected to the power output mechanism 300 to transmit the power generated by the sub-motors 10. The power output mechanism 300 can adjust the power output to ensure the vehicle's speed and stability. The cooling mechanism 400 constantly monitors the motor temperature. When the motor temperature rises due to high-power operation, it is activated in time to cool it down, ensuring stable motor operation.

[0029] In this embodiment, the sub-motor 10 is a low-speed, high-speed, or ultra-high-speed brushed motor or brushless motor among AC or DC motors, and the power output power and speed of the multiple sub-motors 10 are consistent.

[0030] Specifically, by selecting motors with the same power output and speed as sub-motors 10 for combined use, it is ensured that multiple sub-motors 10 can work with the power output mechanism 300 to accurately control the operating status of each sub-motor 10 according to preset instructions, realize synchronous start, stop or speed change, etc., ensure the stability and reliability of power output, and enable the entire kinetic motor system to flexibly adapt to the power requirements of different working conditions.

[0031] In this embodiment, the surface of the motor bracket 210 is provided with a plurality of motor fixing holes 211 and hollow grooves 212. The motor fixing holes 211 are fixed to the sub-motor 10 by screws. The outer side of the motor bracket 210 is provided with a protruding mounting part 213. The mounting part 213 is fixed to the mounting seat 220 provided on the inner wall of the outer shell 200 by screws.

[0032] Specifically, the hollowed-out groove 212 reduces the overall weight of the bracket while allowing the cooling medium inside the cooling mechanism 400 to flow freely, enhancing the heat dissipation effect and ensuring the heat dissipation of the sub-motor 10 during operation. The protruding mounting part 213 on the outside of the motor bracket 210 is fixed to the mounting seat 220 on the inner wall of the outer shell 200 by screws, so that multiple motor brackets 210 and the outer shell 200 can be tightly combined into a stable overall structure.

[0033] In this embodiment, the power output mechanism 300 includes a gearbox 310 fixedly installed on the top of the housing 200. A gear mounting bracket 320 is installed inside the gearbox 310 by screws. A power output shaft 330 passing through the gearbox 310 and the housing 200 is installed inside the gear mounting bracket 320. A power output gear 340 placed inside the gear mounting bracket 320 is fixedly installed outside the power output shaft 330. The power output gear 340 is meshed with multiple drive gears 350. The multiple drive gears 350 are fixedly installed with the output shafts of multiple sub-motors 10 located in the top-level motor unit 100.

[0034] Specifically, when the multiple sub-motors 10 of the multiple motor units 100 are working, the output shafts of the multiple sub-motors 10 in the top motor unit 100 drive the drive gear 350 to rotate. The drive gear 350 meshes with the power output gear 340, thereby transmitting the power generated by the sub-motors 10 to the power output shaft 330. By adjusting the gear ratio in the gearbox 310, the power output can be controlled. When it is necessary to increase the torque, a suitable gear ratio is selected so that the power output shaft 330 outputs a larger torque to meet the requirements of high-load conditions. When it is necessary to increase the speed, the gear ratio is adjusted to the appropriate speed so that the power output shaft 330 outputs power at a suitable speed to adapt to different operating scenarios.

[0035] It should be noted that the power output gear 340 can be a multi-stage reduction gear or a speed-increasing gear. Then, through the interaction between the power output gear 340 and the drive gear 350, the power coupling of multiple sub-motors 10 is realized and the power output is stable.

[0036] In this embodiment, the top of the gearbox 310 is sealed and fixed with a cover 360 by screws, and the inside of the gearbox 310 is filled with lubricating oil.

[0037] Specifically, the cover 360 allows personnel to easily perform routine maintenance on the gears inside the gearbox 310, while the filled lubricating oil effectively lubricates the gears inside the gearbox 310, ensuring the stability of the power output from the power output shaft 330.

[0038] In this embodiment, the cooling mechanism 400 includes a water-cooled box 410 fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer shell 200. The water-cooled box 410 is in communication with the interior of the outer shell 200, and the bottom of the water-cooled box 410 is respectively connected to an inlet pipe 420 and an outlet pipe 430.

[0039] Specifically, the inlet pipe 420 and outlet pipe 430 are connected to equipment for supplying and circulating insulating coolant. When the kinetic motor is running at high power, the heat generated by the motor is transferred to the outer casing 200. The coolant in the water-cooled box 410 flows in through the inlet pipe 420, absorbs heat, and then flows out through the outlet pipe 430, forming a circulation. This continuously reduces the temperature of the motor and gearbox 310, enabling industrial equipment equipped with this type of kinetic motor to maintain a stable working state under long-term and high-load operation, extending the service life of the equipment and improving production efficiency.

[0040] It should be noted that the cooling mechanism 400 in this utility model can also adopt an air-cooled heat dissipation structure, and the water-cooled box 410 can directly adopt an air-cooled box that is connected to the outside space. The air-cooled box is equipped with a heat dissipation exhaust fan, which is installed at the tail end of the power output gear 340. The power output gear 340 drives the heat dissipation exhaust fan to rotate, which can also dissipate the heat accumulated inside the outer shell 200.

[0041] In this embodiment, the control mechanism 500 includes a mounting slot 510 at the bottom of the water-cooled box 410. A circuit control board 520 is installed inside the mounting slot 510, and multiple sub-motors 10 are electrically connected to an external power supply through the circuit control board 520.

[0042] Specifically, the circuit control board 520 can adopt a mature motor operation control board in the existing technology. The circuit control board 520 can be used to power and stably control multiple sub-motors 10. The circuit control board 520 is also equipped with a power control unit, which can be used to connect an external power supply and power multiple sub-motors 10.

[0043] In this embodiment, bearings 600 are fitted at the interlocking connections between the power output shaft 330 and the housing 200, gear mounting bracket 320, gearbox 310, housing cover 360 and water cooling box 410.

[0044] Specifically, the bearing 600 reduces the frictional resistance between the power output shaft 330 and the connecting parts, making power transmission more efficient. At the same time, it can withstand the radial and axial forces generated by the power output shaft 330 during rotation, ensuring the stable operation of the power output shaft 330.

[0045] Finally, it should be added that this type of kinetic motor can also be used as a sub-motor 10. Then, multiple kinetic motors can be assembled according to the installation method or special arrangement method recorded in the instruction manual to form a kinetic motor with greater power output, which is also the subject of protection of this utility model.

[0046] One special arrangement is that multiple sub-motors 10 are arranged in a multi-layered circular pattern around the wheels to form a power motor suitable for new energy vehicles. The multiple sub-motors 10 of this power motor are coupled with the power output mechanism 300 to achieve multi-power coupling, thereby realizing stable power output to new energy vehicles. Moreover, this power motor can also convert kinetic energy into electrical energy during power recovery, thus realizing energy recovery. Furthermore, the power output mechanism 300 can also play an auxiliary braking role, making this type of power motor have a promising application prospect in the field of new energy vehicles.

[0047] The contents not described in detail in this description are existing technologies known to those skilled in the art. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
