Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of generators and in particular relates to a rotor of a permanent magnet generator and to a generator. State of the art
[0002] A permanent magnet generator is a synchronous generator that uses a permanent magnet material to generate an excitation field and can perform highly efficient power generation without an external excitation power supply; its essential feature is that rare-earth permanent magnet materials (e.g., NdFeB) are used as rotor poles, resulting in advantages such as a simple structure, high efficiency (typically 90% to 95%), high power density, and low maintenance costs.
[0003] The propulsion system for high-speed trains is primarily electric, where electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy by an electric traction transmission system to drive the train. The energy source of the high-speed train is electrical energy, which is converted into mechanical energy by the electric traction transmission system, thus generating tractive force. This type of electric propulsion is used in most high-speed trains worldwide, including those in China. The electrical power supply for high-speed trains is primarily provided via an overhead line, with the pantograph on the train roof making contact with the contact wire of the overhead line to draw electrical energy. This type of power supply ensures the stable operation of high-speed trains and efficient energy use.
[0004] Research indicates that a publication with the publication number CN117823347A concerns a ring-shaped combined wind generator comprising a support, a stator, a rotor, and a ring-shaped track. The stator contains induction windings, and the rotor contains permanent magnets; the stator and the track are attached to the support; the rotor is slidably mounted on the track; both the stator and the rotor are mounted on the support; both the stator and the rotor are composed of several arc-shaped modules, and blades are provided on the arc-shaped modules of the rotor, as are wind-attack modules.
[0005] Although the aforementioned patent literature dispenses with a large tower, thus making installation more convenient, reducing costs by more than 60%, and lowering installation costs by about 80%, and although this ring-shaped combined wind turbine can be designed in different sizes as needed due to the lack of restrictions on tower and blade dimensions and can achieve a generating capacity of more than 100 MW, in practical application the number of tracks is low; if several groups of tracks are provided, the friction during rotation of the tracks is high, which impairs the rotational efficiency of the rotor, thus adversely affecting power generation operation, and the system cannot be well used for the electric propulsion of high-speed trains.
[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a rotor for a permanent magnet generator as well as a generator. Content of the present invention

[0009] Preferably, each ring-shaped device unit comprises ring tracks, wherein the radii of the multiple ring tracks increase successively, and wherein the multiple ring tracks are each arranged concentrically to the support.

[0015] A generator comprising the aforementioned rotor of a permanent magnet generator.
[0016] The advantageous effects of the present invention are as follows: Through the interaction of the support, the stator winding, the ring-shaped device units, the coupling unit, and the wind-input components, the function for improving power generation efficiency can be achieved by providing several groups of ring-shaped device units; even with the provision of several groups of ring-shaped device units and an increase in the number of ring tracks, the frictional resistance during the rotation of several groups of ring tracks can be significantly reduced, thereby improving the rotational efficiency of the rotor and thus promoting power generation operation; the present invention can be well used in the electrical drive system of high-speed trains.
