Description

  The present invention relates to a rotor of a squirrel-cage induction motor including an iron core and a rotor bar, and a manufacturing method thereof.

  A squirrel-cage induction motor has a simpler structure and is more robust than a wire-wound induction motor or a DC motor, but it has a rush current (3-8 times the rated current) at start-up that other types of motors do not have. Occur. This event gives thermal stress or electromagnetic force to the rotor bar, and in the worst case, it develops into an event of fatigue and crack initiation or breakage.

  In order to prevent this incompatibility event, it is necessary to fix the rotor bar firmly in the slot (groove) of the rotor core.

  Conventionally, as a method of firmly fixing the rotor bar to the slot of the rotor core, swaging is performed by striking the rotor bar from the outer circumferential direction, and the rotor bar is spread in the circumferential direction so that it is fixed to the slot so that it does not move in the longitudinal direction (axial direction). It is fixed to. In addition, regarding the length to which swaging is performed, it is necessary to reduce the resonance stress generated in the rotor bar of the rotor as much as possible in each iron core length and to set the swaging length to prevent breakage of the rotor bar (Patent Document) 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 11-18344

  In the conventional caulking method of the rotor bar, it is necessary to set the swaging length as described above. The longer the iron core length, the longer the swaging length, and the longer the swaging operation is.

  SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and it is an object of the present invention to shorten an operation time for firmly fixing a rotor bar of a rotor of a squirrel-cage induction motor to a slot of a rotor core.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a state immediately after a rotor bar is inserted into a slot of an iron core in a manufacturing process of a rotor of a squirrel-cage induction motor according to the present invention, and the foremost part when the rotor is viewed from the outer peripheral side. FIG. 3 is a partial front view showing the I direction in FIG. 2. 2 is a partial side view of the vicinity of the outer periphery of the rotor of the squirrel-cage induction motor of FIG. 1, and is a view taken in the direction of the arrow II in FIG. FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing a procedure of a method for manufacturing a rotor of a cage induction motor according to the present invention.

  The rotor 10 of this embodiment is fixed to a rotating shaft 11 and includes an iron core 12 and a rotor bar 20. The iron core 12 is obtained by laminating a plurality of disc-shaped steel plates in the axial direction. Each disk extends vertically in the axial direction, and a hole through which the rotating shaft 11 passes is formed in the center. The iron core 12 is fixed to the rotating shaft 11.

  A plurality of slots (grooves) 13 extending in the axial direction along the outer periphery of the iron core 12 are formed at intervals in the circumferential direction. Each slot 13 is formed with a narrow opening 14 having a width facing the outer periphery, and is narrower than the wide portion 15 at the back.

  A procedure for inserting and fixing the rotor bar 20 in the slot 13 will be described.

  Before inserting the rotor bar 20 into the iron core 12, slits 16 are formed at both ends of the rotor bar 20, and further, an advancement stop 17 is formed at the innermost part of the slit 16 (step S1). The progress stop 17 is, for example, a circular through-hole penetrating along the surface of the slit 16.

  Next, the rod-shaped rotor bar 20 extending in the axial direction is inserted into the wide portion 15 of the slot 13 in the axial direction (step S2). 1 and 2 show the situation at the end of this step. At this time, both ends of the rotor bar 20 protrude from both ends of the iron core 12 in the axial direction. At this time, the two stop stoppers 17 formed on the rotor bar 20 are both inside the axial end of the iron core 12.

  Next, the slits 16 at both ends of the rotor bar 20 are widened (step S3). For example, the slit 16 can be widened by driving a wedge (not shown) into the slit 16. At this time, the advancement stop 17 prevents the slit 16 from further extending to break the rotor bar 20. By opening the slit 16 in this way, the rotor bar 20 is pressed against the axial end of the slot 13 and fixed. At this time, since the narrow narrow opening 14 is formed facing the outer periphery of the slot 13, the rotor bar 20 does not move in the outer peripheral direction and is not detached from the slot 13.

  According to this embodiment, the rotor bar 20 can be fixed in the slot 13 by a simple operation in a short time compared with the case where the rotor bar 20 is swaged.

  As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this embodiment is shown as an example and is not intending limiting the range of invention. This embodiment can be implemented in various other forms, and various omissions, replacements, and changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. This embodiment and its modifications are included in the scope of the present invention and the gist thereof, and are also included in the invention described in the claims and the equivalent scope thereof.
