Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to flat wire motors, and more particularly to a flat wire motor busbar and a flat wire motor. Background Technology

[0002] Busbars are a common form of connection for flat wire motors to the controller. Commonly used busbars include hard copper busbars, enameled wire busbars, soft copper busbars, braided strips, or combinations of various forms. However, due to different housing structures and motor wiring configurations, the design of busbars for some housings or winding schemes has certain limitations. For housings and motor structures with small wiring outlets and where flat wire stators must be blind-mounted, the most common connection method is a combination of hard copper busbars and soft copper busbars or braided strips.

[0003] Currently, the housings on the market, whether inner or outer casing or other integrated types, have limited space for the three-phase output ports. Most motor and electrical control copper busbars are connected via terminal blocks. When both inner and outer layers have leads, the position and diameter of the TIG welding torch must be considered. This necessitates that the three-phase terminals bendable so that the busbar's three-phase terminals can connect to the terminal blocks after the motor is heat-fitted into the housing. Due to the small interface, the currently used flexible connections are mostly in the form of flexible copper busbars or braided strips. Repeated bending of flexible copper busbars carries the risk of copper foil breakage, while braided strips are often thick and easily come into contact with the housing's three-phase ports. During stator heat fitting, the flexible connection busbar is prone to positional shift, causing interference between the flexible connection and the housing. Furthermore, the busbar can only be made of copper plate; the connection between enameled wire copper busbars and flexible copper busbars is not reliable enough.

[0004] In summary, designing a reliable bus is a technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0031] 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, not all, of the embodiments of the present utility model. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] This embodiment provides a flat wire motor bus. The bus 1 is provided with a bus welding end 10, and a terminal 2 is welded to the bus welding end 10.

[0034] Terminal 2 includes a terminal welding end 20, and the side of the terminal welding end 20 is provided with a folded edge 21. The bus welding end 10 is wrapped inside the terminal welding end 20 and the folded edge 21. The folded edge 21 can be provided on one side of the terminal welding end 20, such as... Figure 2 As shown; or folded edges 21 are provided on both sides of the terminal welding end 20, such as Figure 3 As shown, the busbar welding end 10 is wrapped on one or both sides to make the welding more reliable. The shape of the folded edge 21 can be adjusted according to actual needs; the one shown in the figure is rectangular.

[0035] Terminal 2 can be straight or bent, depending on the type of flat wire motor. Common bending angles for bent terminal 2 are 90° or 45°. The multiple terminals 2 soldered on busbar 1 can have the same or different shapes.

[0036] Busbar 1 can be made of enameled wire. Busbar 1 made of enameled wire and terminal 2 has a cost advantage over flexible connection busbar 1.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] This embodiment provides a flat wire motor, including a housing 3 and a flat wire stator 4, such as... Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the flat wire stator 4 is installed inside the housing 3, and the busbar 1 in Embodiment 1 is welded to the flat wire stator 4. The flat wire stator 4, with the busbar 1 and terminal 2 installed, is connected to the motor controller, as shown... Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown.

[0039] First, the busbar 1 of the 10 units without busbar welding (e.g.) Figure 1 (As shown) is welded to the flat wire stator 4 using assembly fixtures. After heating the housing 3 in an oven, the flat wire stator 4 (as shown) with the busbar 1 already welded on is then attached. Figure 6 As shown), it is assembled into the housing 3; after cooling, the three identical terminals 2 are resistively welded to the busbar 1 using equipment and tooling. Welding the busbar 1 first and then the busbar terminals 10 can reduce the space occupied by the terminals 2, leaving more space for the welding gun to weld the busbar 1, and preventing interference between the assembled busbar 1 and the housing 3.
