[0030] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are presented to sufficiently convey the concept of the present invention to those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. The present invention is not limited to the embodiments presented herein and may be embodied in other forms. In order to clarify the present invention, the drawings may omit the illustration of parts unrelated to the description and may slightly exaggerate the size of components to aid understanding.

[0031] FIGS. 1 to 3 are a perspective view, a side view, and a bottom view, respectively, showing a motor according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing a guide member (100) and a neutral terminal (200) disassembled as a motor according to the present embodiment.

[0032] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, the motor according to the present embodiment may include a housing (not shown), a stator fixed inside the housing, and a rotor (not shown) arranged to rotate by electromagnetic interaction with the stator.

[0033] The housing may be composed of a container (not shown) with one end open to accommodate a stator and a rotor inside, and a cover (not shown) coupled to one end of the container to seal the inside.

[0034] The rotor may include a rotor core (not shown), a magnet (not shown) coupled to the circumference of the rotor core or an adjacent pocket (not shown) to impart polarity to the rotor, and a shaft (not shown) coupled to the rotor core and rotating together with it. The rotor may be provided on the radially inner side of the stator. The shaft extends outside the housing to transmit rotational force to the outside when the motor rotates, and bearings (not shown) to rotatably support the rotation axis may be installed in the container and cover through which the shaft passes.

[0035] The stator may include a stator core (10), a coil (20) wound on the stator core (10) to form a rotating magnetic field, an insulator (30) insulating between the coil (20) and the stator core (10), a guide member (100) provided on one side of the stator core (10) to guide the direction of extraction of one end (21) of the coil, a neutral terminal (200) provided on the guide member (100) and connected to the other end (22) of the coil, and an insulating tube (40) provided to surround at least a part of the coil (20) and insulating between coils (20) of different phases.

[0036] FIG. 5 is an exploded perspective view showing a segment (10S) of a stator core (10) and an insulator (30) in a motor according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 6 is a perspective view showing a combined state of a segment (10S) of a stator core (10), an insulator (30), a coil (20), and a part of an insulating tube (40) in a motor according to the present embodiment, from a direction different from FIG. 5.

[0037] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 6, the stator core (10) may be constructed by laminating a single piece or a plurality of steel plates, and may include a roughly annular back yoke (11) and a plurality of teeth (12) that extend radially inward along the circumference of the back yoke (11). Additionally, the back yoke (11) may form an annular structure by combining a plurality of arc-shaped segments (11S). That is, the stator core (10) may be constructed by combining a plurality of segments (10S) in a circumferential direction.

[0038] The stator can be fixed to a housing (not shown) as the stator core (10) is hot-pressed into a container (not shown). To this end, the stator core (10) is pressed into a container in a state where the inner diameter is expanded by heating, and when the container cools and contracts while the stator core (10) is pressed in, the outer surface of the stator core (10) can be fixed by adhering to the inner surface of the container.

[0039] The coil (20) is wound on the teeth (12) of the stator core (10) to form a rotating magnetic field, and the coil (20) and the stator core (10) can be insulated through an insulator (30) made of resin material.

[0040] The insulator may include a first insulator (30A) coupled to one end of the stator core (10) and a second insulator (30B) coupled to the other end of the stator core (10).

[0041] The first insulator (30A) and the second insulator (30B) are provided in multiple numbers arranged along the circumferential direction, and the multiple first insulators (30A) and second insulators (30B) can each be combined at both ends of the stator core (10).

[0042] The insulator may be configured to include a body (31) on which a coil (20) is wound, an inner supporter (32) that supports the coil (20) wound on the body (31) from a radially inner side of the body (31), and an outer supporter (33) that supports the coil (20) wound on the body (31) from a radially outer side of the body (31).

[0043] The body (31) is inserted from the outer end of the stator core (10) toward the inner end and is coupled to the tooth (12), and an uneven structure may be provided on the outer surface of the body (31) so that the coil (20) to be wound may be seated thereon.

[0044] The inner supporter (32) and the outer supporter (33) are each provided to extend circumferentially from the inner and outer ends of the body (31) and to the outer end of the stator core (10) to support the coil (20) wound on the body (31) at the radially inner and outer ends of the body (31).

[0045] The outer supporter (33) may include a coupling groove (34) formed by being recessed at the axial end. A coupling projection (111) of the guide member (100), described later, is inserted into the coupling groove (34) to prevent rotation of the guide member (100).

[0046] Such inner supporter (32) and outer supporter (33) and body (31) can be formed as a single unit during the molding process of the insulator (30).

[0047] The first insulator (30A) is fitted and coupled from the outer side to the inner side of one end of the stator core (10), and the second insulator (30B) is fitted and coupled from the outer side to the inner side of the other end of the stator core (10). Accordingly, the coupling position and coupling direction of the first insulator (30A) and the second insulator (30B) are opposite to each other, and in this state, the teeth (12) of the stator core (10) can be wrapped by the body (31) of the first insulator (30A) and the second insulator (30B).

[0048] Meanwhile, the coil (20) may be composed of a first phase coil (20U), a second phase coil (20V), and a third phase coil (20W). Here, the first phase, the second phase, and the third phase may correspond to the U phase, the V phase, and the W phase, respectively. Also, one or more coils (20) may be provided for each phase.

[0049] Each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) can have one strand wound on at least two teeth (12). Here, at least some of the multiple teeth (12) wound by one strand of coil (20) are not adjacent to each other on the stator core (10).

[0050] For example, when a first phase coil (20U) is wound on a pair of teeth (12), a second phase coil (20V) wound on a tooth (12) and a third phase coil (20W) wound on a tooth (12) may each be placed between the pair of teeth (12) on which the first phase coil (20U) is wound. Accordingly, a connection portion (23) is formed between the plurality of wound teeth (12) for each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W).

[0051] At this time, interference may occur between the different phase coils (20) of the connection part (23).

[0052] To prevent interference between coils (20) of different phases, an insulating tube (40) can wrap the connecting portion (23) of each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) between a plurality of teeth (12) on which each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) is wound, and can insulate between coils (20) of different phases. The insulating tube (40) can be fitted and joined with the coil (20), or provided in the form of a tape and wound around the connecting portion (23). Through this, the operational reliability of the motor can be ensured.

[0053] One end (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) and the other end (22: 22U, 22V, 22W) of each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) can each be drawn out to one side (upper side in FIG. 2) of the stator core (10). At this time, one end of each coil (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) can be directly connected to a power source, such as an inverter of a control device (not shown), to receive currents of the U phase, V phase, and W phase, respectively. And the other end of each coil (22: 22U, 22V, 22W) can be connected to a neutral terminal (200).

[0054] A first phase coil (20U), a second phase coil (20V), and a third phase coil (20W) can be sequentially wound on each of the multiple teeth (12) on the stator core (10). At this time, one end of each phase coil (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) can be arranged adjacent to each other. Accordingly, the other end of each phase coil (22: 22U, 22V, 22W) can also be arranged adjacent to each other. Through this, the increase in volume of the neutral terminal (200) can be suppressed, and the motor can be made lighter and cost reduced.

[0055] Below, the structure and shape of the guide member (100) that guides the extraction direction of one end of the coil (21) will be described.

[0056] FIG. 7 is a perspective view showing a state in which a neutral terminal (200) is coupled to a guide member (100) in a motor according to the present embodiment, FIG. 8 is a plan view showing a guide member (100) in a motor according to the present embodiment, and FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken by cutting the guide member (100) along line I-I of FIG. 8, showing a state in which one end of a coil (21) is guided.

[0057] Referring to FIGS. 1, FIGS. 4 and FIGS. 7 through 9, a guide member (100) is provided on one side (upper side with reference to FIG. 2) of a stator core (10) to guide the direction of extraction of one end of a coil (21). To this end, the guide member (100) may include a body (110) whose outer circumference is supported by an insulator (30) and whose surface faces the coil (20), and a guide way (150) through which the one end of the coil (21) is inserted and passes.

[0058] The body (110) is made of a resin material and can be formed in a roughly annular shape. One side of the body (110) may be provided with a coupling projection (111) that protrudes toward the insulator (30). The coupling projection (111) is inserted and coupled into the coupling groove (34) of the insulator (30) to prevent rotation of the guide member (100) and to improve the coupling force between the insulator (30) and the guide member (100).

[0059] The guideway (150) is formed to extend in the axial direction, and one side may be connected to the other side (upper surface based on FIG. 2) of the body (110). The coil (20) is inserted into one side of the guideway (150), passes through, and is then pulled out to the other side. To this end, the guideway (150) is provided with a hollow shape with an empty interior.

[0060] The guideway (150) can be configured such that the diameter of the inlet (1501a, 1502a, 1503a) into which the coil end (21) enters is larger than the diameter of the outlet (1501b, 1502b, 1503b) into which the coil end (21) exits. Accordingly, the coil end (21) can smoothly enter the guideway (150) and at the same time be precisely exited toward the control device, thereby improving assembly.

[0061] A plurality of guideways (150) are provided so that any one of the first to third phase coils (20W) can be inserted and passed through each. For example, the plurality of guideways (150) may include a first guideway (1501) into which the first phase coil (20U) is inserted, a second guideway (1502) into which the second phase coil (20V) is inserted, and a third guideway (1503) into which the third phase coil (20W) is inserted.

[0062] Each coil (20) of each phase can be drawn out at adjacent ends while passing through the first guideway (1501), the second guideway (1502), and the third guideway (1503). To this end, the first guideway (1501) may include an inclined portion (151) that is inclined toward the second guideway (1502) between the inlet (1501a) and the outlet (1501b). And the third guideway (1503) may include an inclined portion (151) that is inclined toward the second guideway (1502) between the inlet (1503a) and the outlet (1501b). In this way, the first guideway (1501) to the third guideway (1503) cooperate with each other to bring out one end of each phase coil (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) adjacent to each other, thereby minimizing the volume of the power supply to which the coil (20) is connected on the control device, and achieving lightweighting and cost reduction.

[0063] However, it is not limited thereto, and the second guideway (1502) and the third guideway (1503) may include an inclined portion (151) inclined toward the first guideway (1501), or the first guideway (1501) and the second guideway (1502) may include an inclined portion (151) inclined toward the third guideway (1503).

[0064] Additionally, the guide member (100) may include a first reinforcing rib (152) that extends in the axial direction and is connected to an adjacent guideway (150) on both sides in the circumferential direction. The rigidity of the guideway (150) may be improved through the first reinforcing rib (152). Alternatively, the guideway (150) may be provided as a single unit, and a guide hole through which each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) is inserted may be formed.

[0065] And the body (110) may include a recess (112) formed by penetrating or cutting through the outer side so that the coil ends (22: 22U, 22V, 22W) pass through. As shown in the drawing, a plurality of recesses (112) are provided so that the coil ends (22: 22U, 22V, 22W) of different phases can each pass through.

[0066] The recess (112) may include a first recess (1121) through which the first phase coil end (22U) passes, a second recess (1122) through which the second phase coil end (22V) passes, and a third recess (1123) through which the third phase coil end (22W) passes. At this time, the connecting projection (111) may be provided between the adjacent guideway (150) and the recess (112) along the circumference of the body (110) or between adjacent recesses (112).

[0067] Meanwhile, although not shown in the drawing, the guideway (150) may be provided without an inclined portion (151). In this case, the connecting projection (111) may be provided along the circumference of the body (110) between adjacent guideways (150) and recesses (112) or between adjacent guideways (150). Additionally, the first to third recesses (1121, 1122, 1123) may be provided integrally so that all three phase coil ends (22; 22U, 22V, 22W) can pass through. Through this, the volume of the body (110) can be reduced to achieve weight reduction.

[0068] Below, the shape of the guide member (100) and the coupling structure with the neutral terminal (200) will be described.

[0069] FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view showing a plane in which the guide member (100) is cut along the line II-II of FIG. 8.

[0070] Referring to FIGS. 1, 4, 7, 8 and 10, the guide member (100) may include an inner guide (120) formed to protrude axially from the body (110), an outer guide (130) formed to protrude axially from the radially outer side of the inner guide (120) on the body (110), a locking part (140) that restricts the axial movement of the neutral terminal (200), and a fixing rib formed to extend radially.

[0071] The inner guide (120) may be positioned adjacent to the inner circumference on the opposite side of the one side of the body (110) facing the coil (20), and may be formed in a roughly annular shape, but is not limited thereto, and may be provided in a linear, arc-shaped, or other various shapes as long as it can support the neutral terminal (200) in cooperation with the outer guide (130).

[0072] The outer guide (130) can be positioned radially outward from the inner guide (120) on the other side of the body (110). Accordingly, the neutral terminal (200) is seated on the other side of the body (110) between the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130), thereby restricting radial movement through mutual cooperation between the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130).

[0073] In order for the neutral terminal (200) to be connected to the other end of the coil (22) from the outside in the radial direction of the outer guide (130), the outer guide (130) may be provided in an arc shape, but is not limited thereto and may be provided in a shape corresponding to that of the inner guide (120) so as to support the neutral terminal (200) in cooperation with the inner guide (120).

[0074] The size of the gap between the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130) is preferably made equal to the radial thickness of the neutral terminal (200), particularly the fixing part (201) described later, but it may be made slightly larger or smaller.

[0075] The catch portion (140) may include a support member (141) formed by cutting from either the inner guide (120) or the outer guide (130), and a protruding member (142) formed to protrude from the support member (141) toward the other of the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130).

[0076] The support member (141) may be formed by cutting both sides from the inner guide (120) or the outer guide (130). Since the neutral terminal (200) must be positioned between the protruding member (142) and the other side of the body (110) to restrict axial movement, the support member (141) may be extended further axially than the inner guide (120) as needed. As the support member (141) is formed by cutting both sides in this manner, the neutral terminal (200) can be easily deformed when coupled to the guide member (100), thereby improving assembly ease.

[0077] The protruding member (142) may protrude from the end of the support member (141) toward the opposing outer guide (130) or inner guide (120). At this time, the protruding member (142) does not necessarily have to protrude from the end of the support member (141), but this has the advantage of minimizing the volume of the support member (141).

[0078] With the neutral terminal (200) coupled to the guide member (100), one side of the protruding member (142) (the lower side in reference to FIG. 10) may face or contact the neutral terminal (200). Accordingly, the other side of the body (110) and the one side of the protruding member (142) may cooperate with each other to restrict the axial movement of the neutral terminal (200).

[0079] Meanwhile, among the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130), the other one in which the locking part (140) is not formed may include a chamfer (not given a reference numeral) that is tapered at the end of the surface facing the one in which the locking part (140) is formed (upper end in FIG. 10). Through this, when the neutral terminal (200) is coupled to the guide member (100), assembly is improved, and at the same time, the deformation of the locking part (140) is mitigated, thereby improving durability.

[0080] The fixed rib may include at least one of a first fixed rib (121) extending radially outward from the inner guide (120) and a second fixed rib (131) extending radially outward from the outer guide (130).

[0081] FIG. 7 illustrates that a pair of first fixed ribs (121) and second fixed ribs (131) are provided, and that circumferential movement is restricted by contacting one side and the other side of the neutral terminal (200), respectively, but this is not limited thereto, and the neutral terminal (200) may be coupled between a pair of first fixed ribs (121), and the pair of first fixed ribs (121) may restrict circumferential movement of the neutral terminal (200) by having sides facing each other along the near circumference contact the neutral terminal (200).

[0082] As another example, a neutral terminal (200) can be coupled to the outside of a pair of second fixed ribs (131), and the opposite sides of the pair of second fixed ribs (131) facing each other along the near circumference can be in contact with the neutral terminal (200) to restrict the movement of the neutral terminal (200) in the circumferential direction.

[0083] Alternatively, the first fixed rib (121) and the second fixed rib (131) may cooperate with each other on one side or the other side of the neutral terminal to restrict the circumferential movement of the neutral terminal (200).

[0084] Alternatively, the fixed rib may not extend radially from the inner guide (120) or the outer guide (130), but may be formed to protrude axially from the body (110). However, if the fixed rib extends from the inner guide (120) or the outer guide (130), there is an advantage that the rigidity of the guide member (100) is improved.

[0085] In this way, the guide member (100) can prevent rotation by inserting the coupling projection (111) into the coupling groove (34) of the insulator (30), and can also restrict movement by supporting the neutral terminal (200) in the radial, axial, and circumferential directions. As the movement of the neutral terminal (200) is restricted, it can be stably connected to the other end of the coil (22), thereby ensuring the operational reliability of the motor.

[0086] Meanwhile, the guide member (100) may be provided with a stepped portion (170) that protrudes from the body (110) between the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130). As the stepped portion (170) has a different height from the other side of the body (110), the neutral terminal (200) and the body (110) may be spaced apart from each other while the neutral terminal (200) is coupled to the guide member (100). Additionally, the stepped portion (170) may also be provided between the first fixed rib (121) and the second fixed rib (131), thereby supporting the first connection portion (210) and the third connection portion (230) described later.

[0087] Additionally, the guide member (100) may include a second reinforcing rib (160) that is formed to extend radially, with one end connected to an inner guide (120) and the other end connected to a guideway (150). Multiple second reinforcing ribs (160) may be provided, and each of the multiple reinforcing ribs may have its other end connected to a first guideway (1501), a second guideway (1502), and a third guideway (1503). The rigidity of the guide member (100) can be improved through these second reinforcing ribs (160).

[0088] The body (110), the connecting projection (111), the recess (112), the inner guide (120), the outer guide (130), the locking part (140), the guide way (150), the second reinforcing rib (160), and the stepped part (170) can be formed integrally with each other during the molding process of the guide member (100).

[0089] The shape and structure of the neutral terminal (200) will be described below.

[0090] FIG. 11 is a perspective view showing a neutral terminal (200) in a motor according to the present embodiment.

[0091] Referring to FIGS. 1, FIGS. 4, FIGS. 7 and FIGS. 11, the neutral terminal (200) may include a fixed part (201) positioned between an inner guide (120) and an outer guide, a first connecting part (210) bent from one side of the fixed part (201) and connected to a first phase coil (20U), a second connecting part (220) extended between one side and the other side of the fixed part (201) and connected to a second phase coil (20V), and a third connecting part (230) bent from the other side of the fixed part (201) and connected to a third phase coil (20W).

[0092] The fixed part (201) forms the body of the neutral terminal (200) and may be provided in an arc shape, but is not limited thereto; it may be provided in various shapes as needed, such as a curved shape or a linear shape. The fixed part (201) may be coupled between the inner guide (120) and the outer guide (130) and supported in the radial and axial directions.

[0093] The first connecting part (210) and the third connecting part (230) are each formed by bending outward in the radial direction from one side (right side in FIG. 11) and the other side (left side in FIG. 11) of the fixed part (201). The ends of the first connecting part (210) and the third connecting part (230) can each be formed in a curved shape, and can wrap around the other end of the first phase coil (20U) and the other end of the third phase coil (20W) when the motor is assembled thereon. In addition, the first connecting part (210) and the third connecting part (230) can each be positioned between the first fixed rib (121) and the second fixed rib (131) and supported in the circumferential direction.

[0094] The second connecting part (220) may include a first section (221) formed by bending outward between one side and the other side of the fixed part (201), a second section (222) bent from the first section (221) and facing the fixed part (201), and a third section (223) bent radially outward from the second section (222) and connected to the second phase coil (20V).

[0095] The first section (221) is formed by extending axially from the fixed part (201) and bending outward in the radial direction. When the neutral terminal (200) and the guide member (100) are combined, the first section (221) can be supported axially by the outer guide (130).

[0096] The second section (222) may be provided in a roughly 'L' shape, and an outer guide (130) may be positioned between the second section (222) and the fixed part (201) while the neutral terminal (200) and the guide member (100) are combined. Accordingly, it may be supported radially by the outer guide (130). However, the shape of the second section (222) is not limited thereto, and the third section (223) may be formed by bending the second section (222) without extending in the circumferential direction, and the third section (223) may include various other shapes that can be connected to the other end of the second phase coil (20V).

[0097] The third section (223) has a curved end formed to wrap around the other end of the second phase coil (20V). Through this, the neutral terminal (200) can be stably connected to the coil (20), thereby ensuring operational reliability.

[0098] As such, the motor according to the present embodiment can have each coil (20: 20U, 20V, 20W) wound on at least two teeth (12) through the shape and coupling structure of the guide member (100) and the neutral terminal (200), thereby allowing three phase coil ends (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) to be arranged adjacent to each other. Accordingly, the three phase coil ends (21: 21U, 21V, 21W) can be easily connected to a control device (not shown), so the phase terminal can be omitted, and assembly can be improved and cost reduced.
