For making the purpose of this utility model, technical scheme and advantage clearer, specific embodiment of the utility model is elaborated below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.At this, illustrative examples of the present utility model and explanation thereof are used to explain the utility model, but not as to qualification of the present utility model.
Fig. 7 is the wireless drilling generator Structure schematic diagram of the utility model one embodiment.Fig. 8 is the A-A cutaway view of Fig. 7.As shown in Figures 7 and 8, the generator in the present embodiment comprises: upper bearing (metal) house component 110, stator case (resistance to compression tube) 120, stator module (comprising stator winding 130 and stator winding frame 140), rotor assembly (comprising rotor magnetic steel 150 and rotor core 160) and lower bearing house component (the lower bearing house component comprises lower bearing room 170, lower bearing 180 and lower bearing baffle plate 190).
Described rotor assembly is in the same place by described upper bearing (metal) house component and the support and connection of lower bearing house component with stator module, and described upper bearing (metal) house component and lower bearing house component are arranged in the described resistance to compression tube together.
Stator winding is around on the stator winding frame (or claiming stator skeleton), and the stator winding frame is made of the non-magnetic material, is sheathed on the described rotor assembly.
Described resistance to compression tube is made of magnetic conductive material, not only plays the protective effect of anti-ambient pressure and anti-slurry erosion, also as the external magnetic circuit of generator, promptly also is used as stator simultaneously simultaneously.Therefore, the resistance to compression tube is called stator case again in the utility model.In the present embodiment, the material of stator winding frame is preferably the high nonmetallic materials of mechanical strength, as PEEK (polyether-ether-ketone) or PPS (polyphenylene sulfide) etc., but the utility model is not limited to this, as long as this material is suitable for use in the generator as the skeleton that is used for the winding stator winding, just all be applicable to the utility model.The shape of this stator winding frame also can be arranged to various ways, for example can be identical with the shape of silicon steel stator in the downhole generator with existing wireless drilling, also can take other shape, as long as be fit to twine stator winding.Compare with the silicon steel stator among Fig. 6, the stator winding frame in the present embodiment need not adopt and laminate technology, therefore is easier to processing.When the stator winding frame in the utility model is processed into the slot form identical with silicon steel temper among Fig. 6, equally also there is the problem of the difficulty that rolls off the production line in stator winding, so present embodiment preferably selects to make the open bobbin bracket structure of stator winding around stator winding frame outside.Fig. 9 is the structural representation of the stator winding frame of the utility model embodiment.As shown in Figure 9,140 one-tenth tubular structures of stator winding frame, the two ends of tube are annular brace part 1401, (be generally and cast out) evenly is set on the circle wall of tube to be had and a plurality ofly (among the figure is 6, also can be 3,4 etc.) elongated projections 1402 of axial distribution, stator winding is symmetrically around the space between each projection of drum stand.Also can be provided with equally distributed little groove on the strip projection, with the stator winding of fixing with the line binding by this groove.According to stator skeleton structure shown in Figure 9,140 adopt the high nonmetallic materials of mechanical strength, can reduce eddy current loss.Compared with the teeth groove stator structure of traditional silicon steel plate stacking, skeleton-type stator structure processing technology is simple, and stator winding rolls off the production line and belongs to open, therefore rolls off the production line than being easier to.
In the present embodiment, resistance to compression tube (stator case) is preferably processed by erosion resistance, permeability magnetic material (as 10# steel or 0Cr17Ni4Cu4Ni, but being not limited to this) that mechanical strength is high, with as the generator external magnetic circuit.The high permeability magnetic material of mechanical strength (as 10# steel or 0Cr17Ni4Cu4Ni) is also adopted in rotor core, and the axle head that rotor core is stretched out directly as the common axis with peripheral equipment (as the down-hole Other Instruments) is.

(4) be pressed into lower bearing 180 then, the lower bearing baffle plate 190 of packing into, effect such as Figure 13 after this step assembling.Attention owing to adopted nonmetallic materials stator skeleton 140, can not produce rotor assembly and inhale the problem that stator skeleton 140 damages rotor magnetic steel of bumping in this process.
(5) at last the assembly after the assembling shown in Figure 13 is made the as a whole stator case (resistance to compression tube) 120 of filling in.Form the general assembly structure of generator as shown in Figure 7.
Unloading process then in contrast.From disassembly process as can be seen, the generator easy disassembly of the utility model embodiment adapts to the characteristics that oil drilling cleans with the frequent dismounting of downhole instrument needs very much.
Figure 14 and Figure 15 are respectively stator module and rotor assembly figure.
Adopted the generator calculations air gap of stator skeleton structure bigger in the utility model (about 4.8mm), air gap flux density B δ less (about 0.3T).And the utility model directly utilizes stator case (resistance to compression tube) 120 (monolateral thick about 5mm) as external magnetic circuit, even stator case material magnetic permeability is lower, its saturation flux density also can reach about 0.5T, and because the calculating air gap is bigger, magnetic potential mainly drops to be calculated on the air gap, and so the shortcoming that stator case material magnetic permeability is lower is little to the generator performance influence.Opposite, the erosion resistance of stator case material, the characteristics that mechanical strength is high make that the practicality of stator case (resistance to compression tube) is better.
As can be seen from Figure 15, rotor magnetic steel 150 is embedded in the rotor core 160, and the high permeability magnetic material of mechanical strength is adopted in rotor core 160.The axle head that rotor core 160 is stretched out directly as the common axis of down-hole Other Instruments is.For example, when being applied in the slurry generator, can be converted into electric energy to the mechanical energy of wheel rotation, as the part of wireless drilling inclinometers downhole instrument string; When being applied in the continuous wave rotary valve pulser, the moment of scalable rotary valve rotating shaft; Can also measure the rotating speed of slurry generator rotating shaft in addition, be used for passing under the wireless drilling reception of order.
Generator unit stator winding of the present utility model adopts three-phase Y shape or Δ shape connection, also can be two-phase or multiphase stator winding, and same structure can also be worked as brushless DC motor conversely and use.Figure 16 is the structural representation that the utility model embodiment uses as motor.As shown in figure 16, the motor of present embodiment comprises: upper bearing (metal) house component 210, stator case (resistance to compression tube) 220, stator module (comprising stator winding 230 and stator winding frame 240), rotor assembly (comprising rotor magnetic steel 250 and rotor core 260), lower bearing house component (the lower bearing house component comprises lower bearing room 270, lower bearing 280 and lower bearing baffle plate 290), and angular position pick up 300.
