Solution Overview

Problem

The assembly of brushless direct current motors is complicated due to the need for multiple conductive wires, leading to high fabrication costs and loose connections, as existing methods require soldering and excessive wire cutting.

Innovation Solution

A stator part with a single conductive wire wound uninterruptedly around stator poles, eliminating the need for soldering and reducing the number of wire parts to be fixed, using a winding method that connects the wire ends to simplify the assembly and reduce costs.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If multiple conductive wires are used for stator windings, then the motor can function properly, but the assembly structure becomes complicated and fabrication cost increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemotor functionVSAvoidassembly structure
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent merges multiple separate conductive wires into a single continuous conductive wire that forms all stator windings. This single wire is wound around multiple stator poles in sequence, eliminating the need for multiple separate wires and their associated terminals, thereby simplifying the assembly structure while maintaining proper motor function.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

Solution Approach 2:

The single conductive wire performs multiple functions: it forms windings around multiple stator poles, provides electrical connections between all poles, and eliminates the need for separate terminal connections. This multi-functional design reduces the number of components and simplifies the overall assembly.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

2Ease of manufacture

If multiple conductive wires with many terminals are used, then the motor can be assembled, but loose connection of conductive wires容易发生 and additional glues are needed

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveassembly capabilityVSAvoidconductive wire connection
Core Design Contradiction:
Ease of manufactureVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

By combining multiple wired connections into a single continuous wire, the patent eliminates multiple potential connection points where loose connections could occur. The single wire design removes the need for soldering multiple separate terminals and eliminates the requirement for additional glues to secure wire connections.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #5Merging (Combining)

3Quantity of substance

If three conductive wires are used for stator windings, then the windings can be formed, but excessive wire parts need to be cut off leading to waste

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveconductive wire materialVSAvoidconductive wire waste
Core Design Contradiction:
Quantity of substanceVSLoss of substance

Solution Approach 1:

The single conductive wire is pre-formed with the complete winding path around all stator poles before installation. This preliminary formation of the entire winding path eliminates the need for cutting and trimming excessive wire parts after assembly, thereby reducing material waste.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action
