[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a stator assembly for an external rotor motor, which includes a stator core 100 and a fixing frame 200.
[0032] The stator core 100 includes a yoke 110 and a plurality of teeth 120. The yoke 110 has a ring-shaped structure, and the plurality of teeth 120 are arranged around the outside of the yoke 110. The teeth 120 are arranged radially along the yoke 110. A groove 130 is provided between two adjacent teeth 120 along the circumference of the yoke 110. A fixing bracket 200 passes through the inner hole of the yoke 110 and clamps both ends of the yoke 110. The fixing bracket 200 is used for mounting shafts to pass through.
[0033] Understandably, the stator core 100 is made of multiple stator laminations made of silicon steel.
[0034] Through the above structure, on the one hand, the yoke 110 of the stator core 100 is optimized from a traditional disc shape to a hollow annular structure, which can reduce the redundant silicon steel material in the central area of the yoke 110, thereby reducing the amount of silicon steel used and lowering the production cost of the stator assembly; on the other hand, the annular yoke 110 can achieve a lightweight design of the stator core 100 while ensuring mechanical strength, thereby achieving a lightweight design of the stator assembly and even the motor, which can help improve the energy efficiency of the motor and reduce transportation costs; furthermore, the fixing bracket 200 passes through the inner hole of the yoke 110 and clamps its two ends to form a double-end-face constraint structure, ensuring the deformation resistance of the annular yoke 110 and providing stable support for the mounting shaft.
[0035] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 2 to 4It also includes two fixing plates 300, which are located at both ends of the stator core 100. Each fixing plate 300 includes a connected yoke 310 and teeth 320. The yoke 310 abuts against the yoke portion 110 and has a first clearance hole 311 corresponding to the inner hole of the yoke portion 110. Multiple teeth 320 are arranged around the outside of the yoke 310, and the multiple teeth 320 abut against multiple teeth 120 in a one-to-one correspondence, circumferentially opposite each other along the yoke 310. A second clearance hole 330 is provided between two adjacent toothed plates 320. Multiple second clearance holes 330 and multiple wire grooves 130 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence. The edge of the second clearance hole 330 is provided with an extension 331 extending to the corresponding wire groove 130. The extension 331 abuts against the groove wall of the corresponding wire groove 130. The fixing bracket 200 passes through the first clearance hole 311 and the inner hole of the yoke 110, and abuts against the two yokes 310 to clamp the two ends of the yoke 110.
[0036] It is understandable that the yoke 310 has a ring-shaped structure, and the inner hole of the yoke 310 is the aforementioned first clearance hole 311.
[0037] With the above structure, on the one hand, the two fixing plates 300 respectively clamp the two ends of the stator core 100. The fixing plates 300 abut against the end face of the yoke 110 via the yoke 310 and against the end face of the toothed portion 120 via the tooth 320, thus forming a covering clamping structure to enhance the structural stability of the stator core 100. On the other hand, the extension 331 is embedded in the wire groove 130 and abuts against its groove wall (e.g., ...). Figure 4 The U-shaped extension 331 shown in the diagram can mechanically lock the side wall of the wire groove 130, reducing the working condition of deformation of the tooth 120; on the other hand, the second clearance hole 330 and the extension 331 form a clearance channel to ensure that the winding tool can enter and exit the wire groove 130 to complete the winding work.
[0038] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing frame 200 includes two connecting cylinders 210. One end of the connecting cylinder 210 is provided with a first folded edge 211, and the other end is provided with a connecting plate 212. The connecting cylinder 210 passes through the first clearance hole 311 and the inner hole of the yoke 110. The two connecting plates 212 abut and connect. The two first folded edges 211 abut against the two yokes 310 respectively to clamp the two ends of the yoke 110. The connecting plate 212 is used for the installation shaft to pass through.
[0039] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 An insulating element 400 is provided at one end of the connecting cylinder 210, and the insulating element 400 is covered with a corresponding first folded edge 211.
[0040] Connecting plate 212 is used for mounting shafts to pass through; for details, refer to [reference needed]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting plate 212 has a hollow first cylindrical part 212A in the middle, which is used for the installation shaft to pass through.
[0041] The two connecting plates 212 are connected. For details, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 One of the connecting plates 212 has a connecting hole 212B, and the other connecting plate 212 has a second cylindrical portion 212C. One end of the second cylindrical portion 212C has a second flange 212C1. The second cylindrical portion 212C passes through the connecting hole 212B, and the second flange 212C1 and the other connecting plate 212 together clamp one of the connecting plates 212. The second cylindrical portion 212C has a hollow structure.
