Description

  The present invention relates to a motor.

  For example, as described in Patent Document 1, a stator core constituting a stator provided in a motor has a rotor and a radial direction at an axial end portion of a main core portion formed by laminating a plurality of core sheets. There is a configuration in which a magnetic plate having a rotor-facing portion opposed to is disposed. The magnetic plate includes a plurality of laminated tooth portions that constitute teeth on which the armature windings are mounted in the stator core. The rotor facing portion is formed so as to extend in the axial direction by being bent with respect to the laminated tooth portion by press work at an end portion on the rotor side of each laminated tooth portion. By providing such a rotor facing portion in the stator core, it is possible to increase the amount of magnetic taken into the stator core without increasing the size of the rotor and the stator in the axial direction, and it is possible to increase the output torque of the motor.

JP 2014-147180 A

  However, the motor described in Patent Document 1 can increase the output torque by providing the rotor facing portion, but is generated in the rotor facing portion because the rotor facing portion is formed long in the axial direction. There is a risk that the eddy current will increase. Therefore, eddy current loss may increase due to eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion.

  By the way, the main core part is formed by laminating a plurality of core sheets in the axial direction. Therefore, the eddy current generated in the main core part is suppressed to be small, and the eddy current loss in the main core part is reduced. However, it is difficult to reduce eddy current loss in the same manner as the main core portion in the rotor facing portion formed by bending with respect to the laminated tooth portion by press working. Therefore, in order to reduce the eddy current loss generated in the rotor facing portion, it is conceivable to shorten the axial length of the rotor facing portion. However, when the axial length of the rotor facing portion is shortened, there is a problem that the effect of increasing the output torque is reduced.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a motor capable of reducing eddy current loss while maintaining the effect of increasing output torque.

  A motor for solving the above problems includes a stator core having a plurality of teeth arranged in the circumferential direction, a stator having armature windings mounted on the teeth, a rotor having a field magnet and facing the stator core in the radial direction. The stator core is disposed at a main core portion in which a plurality of core sheets each having a plurality of teeth constituent portions extending in the radial direction are laminated in an axial direction, and an axial end portion of the main core portion, A plurality of laminated tooth portions that are laminated on the tooth constituting portion and constitute the teeth together with the tooth constituting portion, and from the end of the laminated tooth portion on the rotor side along the axial direction on the opposite side to the main core portion. A motor including a rotor and a magnetic plate having a rotor facing portion radially facing the rotor, wherein the rotor facing portion Eddy current reducing unit for partially reducing the thickness is provided for.

  According to this configuration, the thickness of the rotor facing portion is partially reduced by the eddy current reducing portion. Therefore, the eddy current generated at the rotor facing portion can be reduced, and the eddy current loss generated at the rotor facing portion can be reduced. And since it is not necessary to shorten the axial length of a rotor facing part in order to reduce an eddy current loss, the effect which raises the output torque obtained by providing a rotor facing part is maintainable. Therefore, eddy current loss can be reduced while maintaining the effect of increasing the output torque.

In the motor, it is preferable that the eddy current reduction part is a concave part provided in a surface of the rotor facing part.
According to this structure, the eddy current reduction part is a recessed part provided in the surface of the rotor facing part, and does not penetrate the rotor facing part. Therefore, an eddy current reduction part can be provided in the rotor facing part while suppressing an increase in magnetic resistance in the rotor facing part.

In the motor, it is preferable that the eddy current reducing portion is recessed on a surface of the rotor facing portion facing the rotor in a radial direction.
According to this configuration, the eddy current reducing portion is formed at the end on the rotor side where eddy current is likely to be generated in the rotor facing portion. Therefore, eddy current loss can be effectively reduced.

In the motor, it is preferable that the eddy current reducing portion is a groove having a lattice shape in a radial direction.
According to this structure, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion can be more effectively reduced by the eddy current reducing portion having a lattice shape in the radial direction. Therefore, the eddy current loss can be further reduced.

  According to the motor of the present invention, eddy current loss can be reduced while maintaining the effect of increasing the output torque.

The end portion on the facing surface 46 b side is divided into two in the circumferential direction by the eddy current reducing portion 47. That is, at the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side, a cross section perpendicular to the radial direction (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the magnetic flux) is divided into two in the circumferential direction by the eddy current reducing portion 47. And in the edge part by the side of the opposing surface 46b in the rotor opposing part 46, an eddy current will arise in each part divided | segmented by the eddy current reduction part 47. FIG. Therefore, compared with the case where the eddy current reduction part 47 is not provided in the rotor facing part 46, the magnitude (eddy current diameter) of the eddy current generated in the rotor facing part 46 can be reduced. In FIG. 7B, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 is schematically illustrated by a two-dot chain line arrow.

  Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 10, it is considered that the magnetic flux flowing from the rotor 14 to the rotor facing portion 46 flows so as to be attracted to the main core portion 31 as illustrated by arrows in FIG. Therefore, even if the eddy current reduction part 47 is not provided at the end of the rotor facing part 46 opposite to the rotor 14, the end of the rotor facing part 46 on the rotor 14 side (that is, the end of the facing surface 46 b side). If provided, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 can be effectively reduced.

Next, characteristic effects of the present embodiment will be described.
(1) The thickness of the rotor facing portion 46 is partially reduced by the eddy current reducing portion 47. Therefore, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 can be reduced, and the eddy current loss generated in the rotor facing portion 46 can be reduced. And since it is not necessary to shorten the axial direction length of the rotor opposing part 46 in order to reduce eddy current loss, the effect which raises the output torque obtained by providing the rotor opposing part 46 can be maintained. Therefore, eddy current loss can be reduced while maintaining the effect of increasing the output torque.

  (2) The eddy current reducing portion 47 is a recess provided in the surface of the rotor facing portion 46 and does not penetrate the rotor facing portion 46 in the radial direction. Therefore, the eddy current reduction part 47 can be provided in the rotor facing part 46 while suppressing an increase in magnetic resistance in the rotor facing part 46.

  (3) The eddy current reduction part 47 is recessed in the opposing surface 46b which faces the rotor 14 in the rotor opposing part 46 in the radial direction. The end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46b side is a portion serving as a path for magnetic flux, and is a portion where eddy current is likely to occur. Thus, by forming the eddy current reducing portion 47 at the end portion on the rotor 14 side where eddy current is likely to be generated in the rotor facing portion 46, eddy current loss can be effectively reduced.

  (4) Since the rotor facing portion 46 is longer in the axial direction than the circumferential width, the rotor facing portion 46 is provided with an eddy current reducing portion 47 having a groove shape extending in the axial direction. The magnitude of the eddy current generated at 46 (the diameter of the eddy current) can be further reduced. Therefore, the eddy current loss can be further reduced.

In addition, you may change the said embodiment as follows.
-The shape of the eddy current reduction part 47 is not restricted to the shape of the said embodiment. The eddy current reduction part 47 should just be a shape which reduces the thickness of the rotor opposing part 46 partially.

  For example, the eddy current reduction unit 71 shown in FIG. 11 is a groove that is recessed in the facing surface 46b of the rotor facing portion 46 and has a lattice shape when viewed in the radial direction. The eddy current reducing unit 71 includes an axial groove 71a (that is, a groove having the same shape as that of the eddy current reducing unit 47 in the above embodiment) extending in the axial direction at the center in the circumferential direction of the rotor facing portion 46, and the rotor facing. The portion 46 is composed of two circumferential groove portions 71b extending along the circumferential direction so as to be divided into three in the axial direction. The axial groove 71a and each circumferential groove 71b are orthogonal to each other. In this way, the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side is divided into six by the eddy current reducing portion 71. That is, at the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side, a cross section perpendicular to the radial direction (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the magnetic flux) is divided into six by the eddy current reducing portion 71. Then, at the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46b side, eddy currents are generated in the individual portions divided more finely by the eddy current reducing portion 71. Therefore, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 can be reduced more effectively by the eddy current reducing portion 71 having a lattice shape in the radial direction. Therefore, the eddy current loss can be further reduced. In FIG. 11, the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 is schematically illustrated by a two-dot chain line arrow.

  In addition, the number of the axial direction groove part 71a and the circumferential direction groove part 71b which comprises the eddy current reduction part 71 is not restricted to the number of the example shown in FIG. 11, You may change suitably. Further, the lattice-like eddy current reducing unit 71 may be formed by forming a plurality of grooves inclined in the radial direction and with respect to the axial direction and the circumferential direction so as to form a lattice shape. Even if it does in this way, the effect similar to the above can be acquired.

  Further, for example, the eddy current reducing unit 72 shown in FIG. 12 is composed of a plurality of (three in the example shown in FIG. 12) grooves that are recessed in the facing surface 46b and extend in the axial direction. The three grooves constituting the eddy current reducing portion 72 are recessed radially outward to open to the rotor 14 side, and are formed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction on the facing surface 46b. If it does in this way, the edge part by the side of the opposing surface 46b in the rotor opposing part 46 will be divided into four by the eddy current reduction part 72 in the circumferential direction. That is, at the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side, a cross section perpendicular to the radial direction (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the magnetic flux) is divided into four by the eddy current reducing portion 72. Since the rotor facing portion 46 is longer in the axial direction than the circumferential width, the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46b side of the rotor facing portion 46 is formed by the eddy current reducing portion 72 composed of a plurality of grooves extending in the axial direction. When the end portion is divided into four parts, the width of the divided individual parts tends to be narrower. At the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side, eddy currents are generated in the individual portions divided by the eddy current reducing portion 72. Therefore, the magnitude of eddy current (eddy current diameter) generated at the rotor facing portion 46 can be further reduced. In FIG. 12, eddy currents generated in the rotor facing portion 46 are schematically shown by two-dot chain arrows. Therefore, the eddy current loss can be further reduced. In addition, the eddy current reduction part 72 may be comprised from the groove | channel of 2 or 4 or more formed in the opposing surface 46b and extended in an axial direction.

  Further, for example, the eddy current reducing unit 73 shown in FIG. 13 is composed of a plurality of (two in the example shown in FIG. 13) grooves recessed in the facing surface 46b and extending in the circumferential direction. The two grooves constituting the eddy current reducing portion 73 are recessed toward the outer side in the radial direction and open to the rotor 14 side, and at the opposing surface 46b, the opposing surface 46b is divided into three equal parts in the axial direction. Is formed. If it does in this way, the edge part by the side of the opposing surface 46b in the rotor opposing part 46 will be divided into three by the eddy current reduction part 73 to an axial direction. That is, at the end of the rotor facing portion 46 on the facing surface 46 b side, a cross section perpendicular to the radial direction (that is, a cross section perpendicular to the magnetic flux) is divided into three in the axial direction by the eddy current reducing portion 47. And in the edge part by the side of the opposing surface 46b in the rotor opposing part 46, an eddy current will arise in each part divided | segmented by the eddy current reduction part 73. FIG. Therefore, the magnitude of the eddy current generated in the rotor facing portion 46 (the diameter of the eddy current) can be reduced as compared with the case where the eddy current reducing portion 73 is not provided in the rotor facing portion 46. Therefore, eddy current loss can be reduced. In FIG. 13, eddy currents generated in the rotor facing portion 46 are schematically shown by two-dot chain arrows. In addition, the eddy current reduction part 73 may be comprised from the groove | channel of 1 or 3 or more formed in the opposing surface 46b and extended in the circumferential direction.

Further, for example, the eddy current reducing unit 47 may be configured by one or a plurality of grooves that are recessed in the facing surface 46b and are inclined with respect to the axial direction and the circumferential direction as viewed in the radial direction.
In the above embodiment, the eddy current reduction unit 47 is formed from one end to the other end of the rotor facing portion 46 in the axial direction. However, the eddy current reduction part 47 may be partially formed in the rotor facing part 46 in the axial direction. For example, the eddy current reduction unit 74 shown in FIG. 14 is provided only in the portion on the distal end side in the axial direction of the rotor facing portion 46. The eddy current reducing portion 74 is recessed in the facing surface 46b and has a groove shape extending in the axial direction. The eddy current reducing portion 74 extends along the axial direction from the tip of the rotor facing portion 46 to a position closer to the tip of the rotor facing portion 46 than the substantially central portion in the axial direction of the rotor facing portion 46.

  In the above embodiment, the eddy current reduction unit 47 has a groove shape extending in the axial direction. However, the eddy current reducing unit 47 does not necessarily have a groove shape. For example, the eddy current reduction part 75 shown in FIG. 15 is a concave part formed in the opposing surface 46b and having a circular shape when viewed in the radial direction. Note that the eddy current reduction unit 75 illustrated in FIG. 15 is a concave portion having a circular shape when viewed in the radial direction, but may be a concave portion having a polygonal shape, an elliptical shape, or the like when viewed in the radial direction. Moreover, the eddy current reduction part 75 may be comprised from several recessed part which makes circular shape, polygonal shape, elliptical shape etc. by radial direction view.

  In the above embodiment, the eddy current reduction part 47 is formed on the facing surface 46b. However, the place where the eddy current reducing portion 47 is formed in the rotor facing portion 46 is not limited to the facing surface 46b. The eddy current reduction part 47 may be formed on the radially outer side surface of the rotor facing part 46, the side edge part 46 a, the axial front end face of the rotor facing part 46, and the like.

In the above embodiment, the rotor facing portion 46 has a trapezoidal shape when viewed in the radial direction, but the shape of the rotor facing portion 46 when viewed in the radial direction is not limited to this, and may be any shape that can capture magnetism. Good. For example, the rotor facing portion 46 may be formed to have a quadrangular shape or the like when viewed in the radial direction.

  In the above embodiment, the magnetic plate 40 is caulked and fixed to the axial end of the main core portion 31. However, the magnetic plate 40 may be fixed to the axial end portion of the main core portion 31 by adhesion, welding, or the like.

  The manner of holding the stator core 21 by the frames 11 and 12 is not limited to that of the above embodiment. For example, a protruding portion that protrudes radially outward from the outer peripheral surface of the main core portion 31 (core sheet 30) may be formed, and the protruding portion may be sandwiched between the stator holding portions 11b and 12b. Further, for example, the outer diameter of the magnetic plate 40 and the outer diameter of the core sheet 30 may be formed to be equal so that the stator holding portions 11 b and 12 b of the frames 11 and 12 come into contact with the outer peripheral edge of the magnetic plate 40.

  In the above embodiment, the field magnet 62 of the rotor 14 is fixed to the outer peripheral surface of the rotor core 61. However, the field magnet 62 may be embedded in the rotor core 61.

  The axial lengths of the rotor core 61 and the field magnet 62 are the axial lengths at the inner peripheral edge of the stator core 21 (that is, from the tip of the rotor facing portion 46 of one magnetic plate 40 to the other magnetic plate 40). It may be set to a length different from (the length to the tip of the rotor facing portion 46). However, the rotor facing portion 46 faces the rotor 14 in the radial direction.
