[0024] 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.
[0025] Please see Figures 1-4 A combined commutator includes a base 1 and copper plates 2. Several sets of copper plates 2 are arranged around the periphery of the base 1. A bent leg 3 is provided at the center of one end of each copper plate 2. The commutator also includes:
[0026] The connector includes a support ring 4, a guide frame 5, and a connecting seat 6. The base 1 has a support ring 4 on its outer wall away from the bent foot 3. Several sets of guide frames 5 are arranged above the support ring 4. The guide frames 5 are T-shaped and have through holes on both the upper and lower sides. The support ring 4 has through holes that fit the guide frames 5. The copper sheet 2 has a connecting seat 6 on its back side that connects to the guide frames 5. The connecting seat 6 has a T-shaped groove that fits the guide frames 5.
[0027] When installing copper sheet 2, the T-shaped groove on the connecting seat 6 on the back of copper sheet 2 is aligned with the guide frame 5 on the support ring 4 using the guiding action of the connector. Since the guide frame 5 is T-shaped and runs vertically through it, the T-shaped groove fits perfectly. Following the shape of the guide frame 5, copper sheet 2 can be quickly and accurately installed into the corresponding position on the base 1, improving assembly efficiency.
[0028] The base 1 is also provided with a fixing component for fixing several sets of copper sheets 2.
[0029] In this embodiment, the fixing component includes an inner ring 7, positioning blocks 8, locking blocks 9, and a pressure plate 10. The base 1 is also provided with an inner ring 7 near the bent leg 3. The outer diameter of the inner ring 7 is smaller than that of the base 1. Several sets of positioning blocks 8 are provided on the outer side of the inner ring 7. Locking blocks 9 are provided on the side of the positioning blocks 8 away from the inner ring 7. The pressure plate 10 has a positioning groove on its inner side that matches the positioning blocks 8, and a locking groove in the positioning groove that matches the locking blocks 9. The pressure plate 10 has a flange 11 near the bent leg 3 that abuts against the guide frame 5. The inner ring 7 of the fixing component is installed on the base 1 near the bent leg 3, and its outer diameter is smaller than that of the base 1, so it does not affect the installation and use of other components. The positioning blocks 8 and locking blocks 9 on the outer side of the inner ring 7 cooperate with the positioning groove and locking groove on the inner side of the pressure plate 10. When installing the pressure plate 10, the positioning block 8 is embedded in the positioning groove, and the locking block 9 is embedded in the locking groove, achieving initial positioning and fixation of the pressure plate 10. The flange 11 of the pressure plate 10 near the bent leg 3 abuts against the guide frame 5, further pressing and fixing the copper sheet 2 to prevent it from shaking or shifting on the base 1. The flange 11 is U-shaped, with its two free ends located on the left and right sides of the bent leg 3. The flange 11 is provided with vent holes that match the through holes, which can surround and limit the bent leg 3 of the copper sheet 2. When the motor vibrates or is subjected to external force, the U-shaped flange 11 can effectively limit the range of motion of the bent leg 3, ensuring the stability of the pin. The vent holes on the flange 11 can balance the internal and external air pressure and reduce the weight of the pressure plate 10 to a certain extent without affecting its fixing effect on the copper sheet 2.
[0030] When a copper plate 2 is partially damaged and needs to be replaced, the pressure plate 10 can be easily disassembled by applying force through the evenly distributed unlocking slots on the pressure plate 10. Both the unlocking slots and the locking blocks 9 are located around the guide frame 5 for easy operation. After removing the pressure plate 10, the connecting parts can be further disassembled to separate the damaged copper plate 2 from the base 1. Then, a new copper plate 2 can be installed, and the connecting parts and pressure plate 10 can be reinstalled to complete the replacement of the copper plate 2. This avoids replacing the entire commutator, reducing resource waste and maintenance costs.
[0031] The reinforcing rib 12, located near the bend 3 on the support ring 4, is connected to the base 1, increasing the structural strength of the support ring 4. During motor operation, the support ring 4 bears the weight of the copper sheet 2 as well as the vibration and impact forces generated by the motor. The reinforcing rib 12 effectively disperses these forces, preventing the support ring 4 from deforming or being damaged, and ensuring the stable support of the support ring 4 for the copper sheet 2 and other components.
[0032] Through holes and vents can also serve to ventilate and dissipate heat, ensuring the stability of equipment operation.
