Electric motor protection in industry - Device for protecting electric motors from oily air and dust

Abstract

Frame with a bar in the middle in which a neodymium magnet is attached

Description

[0001] There are no patented products on the market that we are aware of. There are products that have a frame with tabs that are then attached to the electric motor via a rubber band. This has the disadvantage of requiring more time for the user and requiring more parts, which can be lost or broken. The additional parts also increase the cost, both in terms of purchase and installation.

[0002] Typically, filter mats are cut to size and placed on the electric motor covers. This causes the mats to slip or slide off completely, thus losing their protective properties.

[0003] The invention is based on the object of having a simple and quickly replaceable filter which protects electric motors in industry.

[0004] This task is solved by a frame in which a filter mat is inserted and is firmly attached to the motor by the integrated neodymium magnet.

[0005] The frame features a round bar in the center, which houses the neodymium magnet. This bar is less than the height of the frame's edge, allowing the frame to press the inserted filter mat onto the electric motor cover.

[0006] These protective frames can be supplied in various dimensions starting from 100mm diameter. Advantages

[0007] The following advantages arise: - Protection of electric motors from influences such as dust or oily air -Easy and time-efficient replacement of filter mats, no additional parts or tools required that can break, wear out or be lost - The frame can also be installed on diagonal, horizontal or floor-mounted electric motor covers and is reusable - No slipping or sliding of the filter mats used Fig. 1: Filter frame Fig. 2: 1.
