AI Technical Summary
When existing stepper motors face a large axial force, the wave pad is easily flattened, resulting in axial displacement, which in turn causes coded signal failure and fatigue and breakage of the wave pad, affecting the motor life.
Axial displacement is limited by forming a step structure between the front bearing of the motor and the shaft of the motor and fixing the front bearing to the structure using a locking nut or sleeve.
It effectively improves the resistance of the motor to axial impact, prevents encoder failure caused by axial displacement, and extends the service life of the motor.

Abstract
Description
A stepping motor Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a motor, in particular to a stepping motor. Background Art
[0002] As shown in Figure 1, the existing stepper motor includes a motor front cover 2, a motor rear cover 3, a motor front frame 4, a motor rear frame 5, a motor stator core 6, a motor front rotor core 7, a motor rear rotor core 8, a motor magnet 9, a motor front bearing 10, a motor rear bearing 11, an O-ring 12, a wave washer 13, a magnetic braid magnet 15 and a motor shaft 16;
[0003] A magnetic steel seat 14 for fixing the magnetic steel 15 is installed at the rear end of the motor shaft 16, and a wave pad 13 is provided between the motor rear bearing 11 and the motor rear end cover 3.
[0004] The function of the wave pad 13 is to apply a certain preload to the bearing, eliminate the axial clearance of the bearing, and make the bearing work in a suitable state. At the same time, the wave pad also balances the axial force on the motor output shaft.
[0005] The motor shaft and end caps contain glue reservoirs 17 on the front bearing, 18 on the front bearing front end cap, and 19 on the rear bearing shaft. These reservoirs are used to limit the axial displacement of the bearings. However, when significant forces are applied to the motor's output shaft in either axial direction, particularly in the opposite direction, the motor's wave pads will be flattened, resulting in significant axial displacement. This can cause the motor's magnetic encode signal to fail, and the motor to stop operating.
[0006] On the other hand, axial displacement will cause the wave pad to be in a cyclic state of compression and loosening, which will cause fatigue fracture of the wave pad over time, thus affecting the life of the motor.
[0007] Therefore, how to improve the motor's ability to resist axial displacement caused by axial impact and prevent the motor from failing due to axial displacement caused by axial impact has become a technical problem that needs to be solved.
