AI Technical Summary
The assembly of existing radial flux motor rotors is complex and has low production efficiency. Furthermore, the balancing slots are located on the magnet retaining plate, requiring additional holes to be drilled when adjusting rotor balance, which increases the number of processes and material consumption.
It adopts an injection-molded rotor design, with the rotor core surface covered with an injection-molded layer, and features a circumferential array of fan-shaped sections and radial magnets. Positioning holes are set on the end face of the fan-shaped sections, and positioning holes on the injection-molded layer form balance holes. Built-in balance filler simplifies assembly and eliminates the need for additional end caps. The positioning holes also serve as balance holes.

[0002] Radial flux motors typically include permanent magnets positioned within a rotor core, often referred to as an internal permanent magnet rotor. The rotor is formed by multiple laminations and circumferentially spaced poles. Slots are formed between adjacent poles, and magnets are inserted into these slots. Additionally, in some motors, auxiliary magnets can be placed on both end faces of the rotor core to increase the average flux density around the rotor circumference, thereby improving motor efficiency.

This assembly method is complex and has low production efficiency. Furthermore, the balance slots of this type of rotor are located on the magnet retaining plate, requiring additional balance holes in the end caps besides the fixing holes for the fasteners to be made during rotor balancing.
