[0032] As an important household appliance, the performance of the air conditioner's motor is a key focus for manufacturers. Air conditioner compressors typically use induction motors, and the placement of the stator windings in stator slots of different sizes is a crucial factor affecting motor performance. Properly positioning the windings in stator slots of varying cross-sectional areas can improve the harmonic content of the motor windings, thereby increasing motor efficiency, reducing heat generation, and enhancing reliability.

[0033] Therefore, this application designs a stator assembly and a motor using the stator assembly.

[0034] Referring to Figures 1, 2, and 3, an embodiment of this application provides a stator assembly 100, including a stator core 10 and a stator winding 20. The stator core 10 has Q stator slots 11, which are available in various sizes. The stator slots 11 are categorized into large slots 111 and small slots 112 based on their cross-sectional area. The stator winding 20 is wound in the stator slots 11 and includes a main winding 21 and a secondary winding 22 concentrically wound in the stator slots 11. The main winding has m coils, and the secondary winding 22 has n coils. The main windings 21 are numbered B1, B2, B3...B1 according to their span from largest to smallest. m The secondary windings 22 are numbered A1, A2, A3...A in descending order of span. n B2 to B in the main winding 21 m In the stator slots 11 corresponding to the coils between them, there is at least one single main winding slot 113, the single main winding slot 113 has only the main winding 21, and the single main winding slot 113 has at least one minor slot; and / or, the secondary windings 22 from A2 to A... nIn the stator slot 11 corresponding to the coil between them, there is at least one single auxiliary winding slot 114, the single auxiliary winding slot 114 has only auxiliary winding 22, and at least one of the single auxiliary winding slots 114 is a small slot; wherein, 16≦Q≦32, 3≦m≦14, 3≦n≦12.

[0035] Specifically, the stator core 10 is formed by stacking and pressing together a plurality of stator laminations. The stator core 10 includes a stator yoke 12, stator teeth 13, and stator shoes 14. A stator slot 11 is formed between two adjacent stator teeth 13, and the stator slot 11 is used to accommodate the stator winding 20. In this embodiment, the number of stator slots 11 is Q, and the stator slots 11 include at least two size types. The stator slots 11 are distinguished according to their cross-sectional area, and the cross-section is a plane perpendicular to the axis of the stator core 10. The stator slots 11 include large slots 111 and small slots 112. The large slot 111 is the slot with the largest cross-sectional area, and the small slot 112 has a smaller cross-sectional area than the large slot 111. In this embodiment, stator slots with a cross-sectional area difference of less than 5% are considered to be of the same type.

[0036] The stator winding 20 is wound in the stator slot 11, and in this application, a concentric winding method is used for winding. The stator winding 20 includes a main winding 21 and an auxiliary winding 22. The main winding 21 includes m coils, and the auxiliary winding 22 includes n coils. The coil with the largest span in the main winding 21 is denoted by B1, the coil with the second largest span is denoted by B2, and so on, with the coil with the m-th largest span (i.e., the coil with the smallest span among all the coils in the main winding 21) being denoted by B... m Similarly, in secondary winding 22, the coil with the largest span is represented by A1, the coil with the second largest span by A2, and so on, with the coil with the nth largest span (i.e., the coil with the smallest span) represented by A... n express.

[0037] In this embodiment, when the stator winding 20 is wound in the stator slot 11, the same stator slot 11 may contain both the main winding 21 and the auxiliary winding 22, or it may contain only one of the main winding 21 or the auxiliary winding 22. The stator slot 11 containing both the main winding 21 and the auxiliary winding 22 is a shared slot 115; the stator slot 11 containing only the main winding 21 is a single main winding slot 113; and the stator slot 11 containing only the auxiliary winding 22 is a single auxiliary winding slot 114. B1 is located in the single main winding slot 113, and the single main winding slot 113 where B1 is located is a large slot 111. In the main winding 21, from B2 to B... m The coils between (i.e., B2, B3...B) m The stator slot 11 in which the ) is located has at least one single main winding slot 113, and at least one of the single main winding slots 113 is a small slot; and / or, in the secondary winding 22, A2 to A n The coils between (i.e., A2, A3...A) nAt least one single-branch slot 114 exists in the stator slot 11 where Q is located, and at least one of the single-branch slots 114 is a small slot. Here, Q, m, and n are all integers. This design can reduce the harmonic content in the motor windings, thereby improving motor efficiency, reducing heat generation, and enhancing motor reliability.

[0038] By rationally arranging the stator windings 20 in stator slots 11 of different sizes, the waveforms of the magnetomotive force and electromotive force can be made closer to sine waves, thereby reducing harmonic components. Reduced harmonic content reduces energy loss during motor operation, thus improving motor efficiency. Furthermore, reduced harmonic content lowers the heat generation of the motor windings, reducing heat loss and helping to extend the motor's service life and improve its reliability. Stator slots 11 are typically filled with a certain number of coil turns to ensure no wasted space. Therefore, the magnetic field generated by the coil is proportional to the cross-sectional area of ​​the stator slot 11. The larger the area of ​​the stator slot 11, the more coil turns it contains, and the greater the magnetomotive force generated. In this application, the main winding 21 with the largest span, B1, is placed in the largest slot 111 to maximize the magnetomotive force generated by B1. The magnetic field from B2 to B... m At least one small slot is provided in the single main winding slot between the slots, so the magnetomotive force generated by the corresponding coil in the small slot is less than the magnetomotive force generated by B1, and B2 and B in the main winding 21 are... m In some cases, the primary winding 21 and the secondary winding 22 share a stator slot 11. When both the primary winding 21 and the secondary winding 22 are located in the same stator slot 11, they can coordinate with each other to generate a suitable magnetomotive force. The magnetomotive force formed by the superposition of all coils in the stator assembly 100 of this application is closer to a sine wave, thereby reducing harmonic components. Verification has shown that the motor efficiency using the stator assembly 100 of this application is increased by 1%, and the total winding heat generation is reduced by 10%.

[0039] In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, Q is 24, m is 5, and n is 4. In this case, B1 and B2 of the main winding 21 are located in a single main winding slot 113, and B2 of the main winding 21 is located in a small slot. In the embodiment shown in Figure 2, Q is 24, m is 5, and n is 3. In this case, B1, B2, and B3 of the main winding 21 are located in a single main winding slot 113, and B3 of the main winding 21 is located in a small slot. In the embodiment shown in Figure 3, Q is 24, m is 4, and n is 4. B1 and B2 of the main winding 21 are located in a single main winding slot 113, and A1 and A2 of the auxiliary winding 22 are located in a single auxiliary winding slot 114, where A2 and B2 are both located in small slots.

[0040] In some exemplary embodiments, Q can be 16, 20, 24, 28, or 32; m can be 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, or 14; and n can be 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, or 12. When Q, m, and n are limited to the above values, the coil B1 with the largest span in the main winding 21 is placed in the large slot 111, and B2 and B... m When at least one single-winding main group slot and at least one single-winding slot is a small slot in the stator slot 11 where the coils are located; and / or, when at least one single-secondary winding slot 114 and at least one single-winding slot is a small slot in the secondary winding 22, the harmonic content of the stator assembly 100 is reduced, the efficiency of the motor using the stator assembly 100 of this application is increased by 1%, and the total winding heat generation is reduced by 10%.

[0041] As shown in Figure 2, in an exemplary embodiment, the main winding 21 includes a first main winding 211 and a second main winding 212 arranged opposite to each other, and the auxiliary winding 22 includes a first auxiliary winding 221 and a second auxiliary winding 222 arranged opposite to each other. In this embodiment, the main windings and auxiliary windings are staggered in the stator slots. The first main winding and the second main winding are symmetrically arranged about the horizontal axis, and the first auxiliary winding and the second auxiliary winding are symmetrically arranged about the vertical axis. The first main winding is interleaved with the first auxiliary winding and the second auxiliary winding, and the second main winding is interleaved with the first auxiliary winding and the second auxiliary winding. This interleaved arrangement can reduce the proximity efficiency between coils, weaken the circulating current between conductors, and reduce circulating current loss. Furthermore, the interleaved arrangement provides more layout options for the main windings and auxiliary windings, which helps to meet the needs of different application scenarios. The stator assembly 100 of this embodiment is applied in a single-phase motor. There are two main windings 21, which form a pair of N and S pole magnetic fields. The two auxiliary windings 22 form a pair of N and S pole magnetic fields, and the two main windings and the two auxiliary windings are arranged alternately.

[0042] In an exemplary embodiment, in the main windings B2 to B m The stator slots containing the coils have at least two adjacent shared slots, and these shared slots are arranged adjacent to each other. In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, there are three shared slots, which are arranged adjacently in sequence. The shared slots simultaneously accommodate the main winding and the auxiliary winding. The two windings can coordinate with each other, which helps to achieve a smooth magnetic field transition, making the magnetic field generated by the stator assembly more sinusoidal.

[0043] In one exemplary embodiment, there are at least two types of slots. In the embodiments of Figures 1, 2, and 3, there is only one type of slot. In these embodiments, the stator slot 11 includes a large slot 111 and a type of slot 112. In the embodiment of Figure 4, there are two types of slots 112. The stator slot 11 includes a large slot 111 and two types of slots 112, namely a first slot 1121 and a second slot 1122. The cross-sectional area of ​​the second slot 1122 is smaller than that of the first slot 1121. In this embodiment, Q is 24, m is 5, n is 3, and both the B2 coil and the B3 coil of the main winding 21 are located in the slots 112, with the B2 coil located in the first slot 1121 and the B3 coil located in the second slot 1122. The magnetomotive force generated by coil B1 is the largest, while that generated by coil B2 is smaller than that generated by coil B1, and that generated by coil B3 is smaller than that generated by coil B2. The magnetomotive force generated by each coil shows a decreasing trend, making the leap height of each step closer to a sine curve. This can reduce harmonic content, thereby improving motor efficiency, reducing motor heat generation, and improving motor reliability.

[0044] In one exemplary embodiment, the number of slots is at least four.

[0045] As shown in Figure 2, in an exemplary embodiment, the outer contour of the stator core 10 has cutouts 15, which correspond to slots. Specifically, the outer contour of the stator yoke of the stator core 10 has multiple cutouts 15. The stator yoke of the stator core 10 is used for magnetic flux transmission. Since this application has multiple slots, while maintaining the original magnetic flux density, the width of the stator yoke 12 at the corresponding position of the slot can be appropriately reduced to form a gap in the outer contour of the stator core 10. This gap can be used to allow refrigerant in the compressor to flow, thereby improving heat dissipation efficiency. It is understood that the cutouts 15 can correspond to a portion of the slots, and it is not necessary for each slot to correspond to a cutout 15. As long as there is enough space for refrigerant to flow, it is not necessary to set too many cutouts 15, which would make the area of ​​the stator yoke of the stator core 10 too small, increase the magnetic density of the stator yoke, and thus reduce the efficiency of the motor. In this embodiment, the number of cutouts 15 is four. It should be noted that the cut in Figure 2 is only a schematic diagram. The cut is a regular straight shape. The cut can be an arc-shaped structure, or it can be an irregular structure formed by multiple consecutive straight line segments or arc-shaped line segments. The specific shape of the cut can be set according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0046] In one exemplary embodiment, the stator winding 20 is an aluminum wire winding. Aluminum wire windings have lower coil costs, which can reduce equipment costs, and aluminum has a lower density, which can reduce the weight of the stator assembly 100, thereby reducing the weight of the motor. Aluminum is a renewable resource, and aluminum wire windings are more environmentally friendly, which helps to reduce the consumption of natural resources.

[0047] In one exemplary embodiment, the outer diameter of the stator core 10 is between 60mm and 200mm, and the inner diameter of the stator core 10 is between 30mm and 100mm. In this embodiment, the power range of the motor is 300W-6000W, the outer diameter of the stator core 10 is set within the range of 60mm-200mm, and the inner diameter of the stator core 10 is set within the range of 30mm-100mm.

[0048] This application also relates to an electric motor, specifically a single-phase induction motor. It includes the aforementioned stator assembly 100 and a rotor assembly 200 disposed within the stator assembly 100. The motor of this application, employing the aforementioned stator assembly 100, can reduce harmonic content, thereby improving motor efficiency, reducing motor heat generation, and ultimately enhancing motor reliability.

[0049] The rotor assembly 200 includes a rotor core and rotor windings. The motor rotor is a squirrel-cage structure made of aluminum. The rotor core includes multiple laminated rotor laminations with multiple through holes. The rotor windings include aluminum conductor bars inserted into the through holes and end rings at both ends of the aluminum conductor bars, forming a squirrel-cage structure. The squirrel-cage rotor winding structure is simple, low-cost, and has good short-circuit withstand capability.

[0050] This application also relates to a compressor that includes the aforementioned motor, wherein B2 and B in the main winding 21 of the stator assembly 100 of the compressor... m In the stator slots 11 corresponding to the coils between them, there is at least one single main winding slot 113, the single main winding slot 113 contains only the main winding 21, and the single main winding slot 113 has at least one minor slot; and / or, the secondary windings 22 A2 and A n In the stator slots 11 corresponding to the coils between them, there is at least one single auxiliary winding slot 114, and each single auxiliary winding slot 114 contains only an auxiliary winding 22. At least one of the single auxiliary winding slots 114 is a small slot; wherein 16≦Q≦32, 3≦m≦14, and 3≦n≦12. By setting the position of the stator winding 20 in different stator slots 11, the harmonic content in the motor windings can be improved, the motor efficiency can be increased, and the motor heat generation can be reduced.

[0051] This application also relates to a refrigeration device that employs the aforementioned compressor. The refrigeration device can be a refrigerator, air conditioner, etc. The compressor's stator assembly 100 has windings B2 and B2 in its main winding 21. m In the stator slots 11 corresponding to the coils between them, there is at least one single main winding slot 113, the single main winding slot 113 contains only the main winding 21, and the single main winding slot 113 has at least one minor slot; and / or, the secondary windings 22 A2 and A nIn the stator slots 11 corresponding to the coils between them, there is at least one single auxiliary winding slot 114, and each single auxiliary winding slot 114 contains only an auxiliary winding 22.
