1Object-affected harmful factors

If traditional magnetic circuits are used, then the magnetic circuit structure is simple, but vibration is generated due to changes in magnetic force

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovevibrationVSAvoidmagnetic circuit structure
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

A dynamic damper is introduced as an intermediary component between the magnetic flux changes and the stator core. The damper includes a weight member and a connection member that transmits magnetic flux while providing vibration reduction. This intermediary structure absorbs and dissipates vibration energy generated by magnetic force changes, preventing direct transmission to the stator core while maintaining the magnetic circuit's functional simplicity.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

The connection member's elasticity is optimized to have a natural frequency that differs from the stator core's natural frequency. By changing the elastic parameters and mass distribution of the dynamic damper, the system transforms the vibration problem into a frequency-mismatch scenario where the damper vibrates at a different frequency than the core, thereby reducing resonant amplification and overall vibration levels.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

2Object-affected harmful factors

If reinforcing plates with beam members are used, then electromagnetic vibration is absorbed, but the support rigidity of the stator core is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectromagnetic vibrationVSAvoidsupport rigidity
Core Design Contradiction:
Object-affected harmful factorsVSStrength

Solution Approach 1:

The dynamic damper serves as an intermediary vibration absorption mechanism that does not compromise structural rigidity. Unlike reinforcing plates that directly support the stator core, the damper is positioned to absorb vibration through its weight member and elastic connection, allowing the core support structure to maintain its original rigidity while the damper handles vibration mitigation independently.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)
