Description

[0001] The present invention relates to an outer rotor type motor, a cold air circulation fan using the same, and a refrigerator using the same,

The present invention relates to a motor, and more particularly, to an outer rotor type motor, a cool air circulation fan using the same, and a refrigerator using the same.

In general, a motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy such as rotational force. The motor is used in various devices requiring a rotational force such as a cold air circulating fan of a refrigerator, a blowing fan of an air conditioner, a compressor and an automobile.

The motor can be classified into an outer rotor type motor and an inner rotor type motor depending on whether or not the rotor is disposed outside the stator. The outer rotor type motor is advantageous in that it can be made compact in the radial direction and the axial direction as compared with the inner rotor type motor. For this reason, the outer rotor type motor has a tendency to be used in the circulation fan of the refrigerator because it can reduce the installation space of the motor and increase the internal space of the refrigerator.

Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2010-0029619 discloses an example of a conventional outer rotor type motor used for a cool air circulating fan of a refrigerator.

Hereinafter, a conventional outer rotor type motor used for a circulation fan of a refrigerator will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 is a cross-sectional view showing a conventional outer rotor type motor.

1, a conventional outer rotor type motor 1 includes a lower bearing 4, a stator 3 coupled to the lower bearing 4, an upper bearing 2 coupled to the stator 3, A rotor 6 coupled to a rotary shaft 5 rotatably supported by the upper bearing 2 and the lower bearing 4 and a blade assembly 7 installed on the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 6. [ The rotor 6 includes a rotor case 8 formed with a galvanized steel plate disposed to be spaced apart from the outer circumferential surface of the stator 3 and a magnet 9 attached to the inner circumferential surface of the rotor case 8, One end of the rotary shaft 5 is coupled to the center portion.

On the other hand, the rotor case 8 and the rotary shaft 5 are coupled by a press-fitting method.

Incidentally, when the rotary shaft 5 is press-fitted to the rotor case 8, inconsistency occurs between the axial center of the rotary shaft 5 and the center of gravity of the rotor 6 due to the pressure input. Therefore, when the rotor 6 rotates, there arises a problem that the rotor 6 vibrates. Furthermore, vibration and noise of the outer rotor type motor occur.

FIG. 4 is an enlarged view of FIG. 2, and FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 are views showing a coupling relationship between a rotary shaft and a rotor of an outer rotor type motor according to another embodiment of the present invention.

2 to 6, a cool air circulation fan 100 (hereinafter, referred to as a cool air circulation fan) using an outer rotor type motor according to an embodiment of the present invention is installed in a cool air duct of a refrigerator, And an outer rotor type motor 300 (hereinafter, referred to as a motor) for rotating the blade assembly 200 and the blade assembly 200.

The blade assembly 200 includes a hub 210 coupled to the rotation axis 360 of the motor 300, a blade support plate 220 extending in the centrifugal direction from the outer circumferential surface of the hub 210, The blades 230 of the first embodiment shown in FIG. The blade assembly 200 is rotated by the motor 300 to forcibly circulate the cold air of the refrigerator. That is, the blade assembly 200 sucks in the cold air of the refrigerator and exhausts it to the cold air duct of the refrigerator, or sucks the cold air of the cold air duct of the refrigerator, and exhausts it into the interior of the refrigerator.

The motor 300 includes a base plate 320 to which a circuit board 310 on which a drive circuit is formed is coupled, a bearing holder 330 coupled to the base plate 320 and receiving the bearings 340, a bearing holder 330, A rotor 360 rotatably coupled to the bearing 340 and a rotor 360 disposed on the outer side of the stator 350 and integrally coupled to the rotation shaft 360 370).

The base plate 320 may be formed in a variety of shapes depending on the shape of the place where the circulation fan 100 is installed. In the center of the base plate 320, a bearing holder coupling hole 321 is formed in which the bearing holder 330 is press-fitted. A circuit board 310 having a circuit for controlling a power source applied to a coil (not shown) of the stator 350 is coupled to the upper surface of the base plate 320.

The bearing holder 330 is formed in a cylindrical shape whose lower end is closed. A bearing receiving portion 331 is formed at an intermediate portion of the bearing holder 330, and a low-temperature portion 332 is formed at a lower portion thereof. When the rotary shaft 360 is rotated in the low oil part 332, the oil that reduces the frictional force between the bearing 340 and the rotary shaft 360 is stored.

The bearing receiving portion 331 may be formed as a cylindrical hole corresponding to the outer shape of the bearing 340 so that the bearing 340 can be received.

A slit washer 381 having a hole through which the rotating shaft 360 passes is seated at the bottom of the bearing receiving portion 331. The slit washer 381 is fixed to the bottom of the bearing accommodating portion 331 when the bearing 340 is received in the bearing accommodating portion 331. When the rotary shaft 360 moves in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 360, the rotary shaft detachment preventing portion 361 formed on the rotary shaft 360 is caught by the slit washer 381 so that the rotary shaft 360 is engaged with the bearing receiving portion 331 .

The low oil portion 332 is formed into a cylindrical shape having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the bearing accommodating portion 331 and the lower end closed. A thrust washer 380 may be seated on the bottom of the oil reservoir 332. The thrust washer 380 axially supports the rotary shaft 360 and disperses the force transmitted from the rotary shaft 360 to prevent the force from being concentrated at one point on the bottom surface of the low- Therefore, the thickness of the bottom surface of the low oil part 332 can be reduced.

The bearing 340 has a cylindrical rotary shaft hole 341 formed at the center thereof. The rotary shaft 360 is rotatably fitted in the rotary shaft hole 341. The bearing 340 may be embodied as an oilless bearing formed of oil-containing sintered metal. That is, it can be realized as a metal bearing in which oil is permeated into a porous copper alloy (brass system).

At the upper end of the bearing 340, an oil scattering-preventing washer 382 having a hole through which the rotary shaft 360 passes is seated. The oil splash proof washer 382 lowers the oil that has risen along the bearing 340 and the rotating shaft 360 downward to the bearing receiving portion 331 and prevents the oil from splashing to the outside of the bearing receiving portion 331 do.

The stator 350 includes a stator core 351 coupled to the outer circumferential surface of the bearing holder 330, a tooth 352 extending in a circumferential direction from the outer circumferential surface of the stator core 351, And may include a coil (not shown) wound around the insulator 353 and the insulator 353.

The stator core 351 and the teeth 352 may be formed by a plurality of divided cores and integrally combined with each other. The coil may be implemented as a three-phase connection that is divided into three. Here, the three-phase connection may be Y connection or? Connection (delta connection).

The stator 350 forms a rotor system when power is applied to the coil, and the rotor 370 is rotated by the rotor system thus formed.

The lower portion of the rotary shaft 360 is accommodated in the bearing receiving portion 331 and the rotor case engaging portion 362 is coupled to the rotor case 371 at an intermediate portion thereof. The blade assembly engaging portion 363 is formed.

In order to prevent the rotor case 371 from moving in the axial direction of the rotary shaft 360 and the rotor case 371 from sliding with respect to the rotary shaft 360, Likewise, it can include diamond knurling.

5 and 6, the rotor case engaging portion 362 includes a rotor case separation preventing groove 362-1 for preventing the rotor case 371 from moving in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 360, And a rotor case slip prevention groove 362-2 for preventing the rotor case 371 from sliding relative to the rotation shaft 360. [ That is, the rotor case separation preventing groove 362-1 is formed so as to be recessed at a predetermined depth toward the center of the rotation shaft 360 around the cross section of the rotation shaft 360. [ The rotor case separation preventing protrusion 371-1 formed in the rotor case 371 is fitted in the rotor case separation preventing groove 362-1. Therefore, when the rotor case 371 is moved in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 360, the rotor case separation preventing protrusion 371-1 is caught by the rotor case separation preventing groove 362-1 to rotate from the rotor case 371 to the rotating shaft 360 are prevented from being released. The rotor case slip prevention groove 362-2 is formed around the rotation axis 360 by a predetermined depth along the axis of the rotation axis 360. [ The rotor case slip prevention protrusion 371-2 formed in the rotor case 371 is fitted in the rotor case slip prevention groove 362-2. Therefore, when the rotor case 371 rotates, the rotor case slip prevention protrusion 371-2 is caught by the rotor case slip prevention groove 362-2 so that the rotor case 371 is prevented from sliding on the rotation axis 360 .

The blade assembly coupling portion 363 may also include a knurling for preventing the blade assembly 200 from slipping off.

The rotor 370 includes a rotor case 371 formed in a cylindrical shape with one end closed so that the stator 350 can be disposed therein and a magnet 372 formed into a cylindrical shape and coupled to the inner circumferential surface of the rotor case 371 .

The rotor case 371 is made of a plastic material. The plastic material is not limited to a specific plastic material but may be any material that can couple the rotation shaft 360 and the magnet 372 to the rotor case 371 by insert injection.

On the other hand, when the rotor case 371 is injection-molded, the rotation shaft 360 is inserted and formed integrally with the rotation shaft 360. Therefore, the center of gravity of the rotor case 371 and the shaft center of the rotation shaft 360 are easily aligned with each other, and the vibration of the rotor 370 is prevented when the rotor 370 rotates.

A magnet engagement portion 373 is formed on the lower inner circumferential surface of the rotor case 371 and a magnet departure prevention groove 374 is formed in the magnet engagement portion 373. [ A magnet separation preventing protrusion 372-1 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the magnet 372. [ The magnet departure prevention protrusion 372-1 is fitted in the magnet departure prevention groove 374. [ Therefore, the magnet 372 is prevented from being detached from the magnet coupling portion 373.

The magnet 372 is implemented as a polar anisotropic plastic magnet having a ring shape. The polar anisotropic plastic magnet is injected into a ring-shaped magnet injection mold for mixing a ferrite magnet powder and a plastic mixture to melt and magnetize the magnetization magnetic field, and cooling the molten magnet powder so that the magnetization easy axis of the molten magnet powder is magnetized with a polar anisotropy . Therefore, a magnetic path is formed in the magnet 372 itself having a ring shape, so that the back yoke for forming the magnetic path can be eliminated.

Meanwhile, the magnet 372 may be integrally formed with the rotor case 371 when the rotor case 371 is injection-molded by the insert injection method. Therefore, unlike the conventional outer rotor type motor, the process of bonding or press-fitting the magnet to the rotor case is omitted, and manufacturing cost is reduced.

Hereinafter, a refrigerator using a cool air circulation fan using an outer rotor type motor according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

7 is a view illustrating a refrigerator using a cool air circulation fan using an outer rotor type motor according to an embodiment of the present invention.

A cool air circulation fan (100) is installed in the cool air duct (420). The cool air circulation fan 100 sucks the cool air of the inside of the room S and exhausts it to the cool air duct 420.

 Meanwhile, the cool air circulation fan 100 generates less vibration and noise as compared with the conventional cool air circulation fan 100. Accordingly, vibration and noise generated in the refrigerator 400 are also reduced. That is, the cool air circulation fan 100 using the outer rotor type motor 300 according to an embodiment of the present invention in which vibration and noise are reduced as compared with the conventional outer rotor type motor is used in the refrigerator 400, The vibration and the noise generated in the vehicle are reduced.
