Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Three-phase asynchronous motors with low harmonic and unequal turns winding face challenges in optimizing slot fullness and embedding quality, leading to increased stray losses, temperature rise, and noise, which affect efficiency and performance.
Innovation Solution
A stator lamination design with unequal slots, featuring a ring-shaped substrate with radially arranged stator slot groups, including large and small slots, optimized in shape and arrangement to achieve consistent slot fullness and improved embedding quality, reducing stray losses and temperature rise.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Manufacturing precision
If the same slot shape is used in the stator lamination, then the manufacturing process is simple, but the slot fullness becomes inconsistent when the number of turns of each coil is different, leading to poor embedding quality
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by designing different slot shapes for different coil types. Specifically, coils with fewer turns use slots with larger opening widths, while coils with more turns use slots with smaller opening widths. This localized adaptation of slot geometry to the specific winding requirements of each coil position ensures consistent slot fullness across all coils, directly resolving the contradiction between manufacturing precision and device complexity.
2Manufacturing precision
If unequal slots are designed to accommodate different number of turns, then the embedding quality improves, but the manufacturing complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies parameter changes by systematically varying the opening width parameter of the slot geometry based on the coil turn count. The opening width is adjusted within a specific range (0.5-2.0mm) to optimize slot fullness for different winding configurations. This controlled parameter variation allows the patent to improve embedding quality while keeping the manufacturing process manageable through standardized geometric modifications rather than completely different slot designs.
3Adaptability or versatility
If the slot opening width is increased, then coils with fewer turns can be accommodated, but the slot fullness decreases for coils with more turns
Solution Approach 1:
The patent resolves this contradiction by applying local quality through position-specific slot design. Each slot opening width is locally optimized according to the coil's turn count and position in the stator. Coils with fewer turns are placed in slots with larger opening widths to ensure proper accommodation, while coils with more turns are placed in slots with smaller opening widths to maintain high slot fullness. This localized adaptation allows the system to achieve both adaptability and manufacturing precision simultaneously.
