The invention relates to a
traction motor and specifically relates to a
traction motor capable of online replacement of a bearing, for solving the problem of incapability of online replacement of a bearing by use of a conventional locomotive
traction motor. The traction motor comprises a support, a non-driving end cover, a rotor, the bearing, a bearing back-up ring and a bearing angular ring, and further comprises a sealing cover, a bearing pedestal and a spindle
nose cover plate, wherein the bearing is in
interference fit with a bearing hole of a bearing pedestal, the bearing pedestal is in transition fit with the non-driving end cover, and the bearing angular ring is in
interference fit with a rotor shaft; the bearing back-up ring is in contact with an outer ring of the bearing and is fixed to the bearing pedestal by use of a bolt, and the spindle
nose cover plate is fixed to the end surface of the rotor shaft; the sealing cover and the end cover are in
interference fit and are fixed by use of a bolt; and the sealing cover, the spindle
nose cover plate, the bearing back-up ring and the bearing pedestal are provided with screw holes. According to the invention, the function of online replacement of the bearing without unloading can be realized, the maintenance time and the maintenance cost of a fault locomotive traction motor are greatly reduced, and the
punctuality rate and the
utilization rate of locomotive operation are improved.
