Definitions
- the present invention relates to a permanent magnet, particularly a permanent magnet having a low coercive force and a high squareness ratio suitable for motors, and a method for manufacturing the same. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a permanent magnet motor using these magnets.
- alnico magnets ferrite magnets, Sm—Co magnets, Nd—Fe—B magnets and the like are known as permanent magnets.
- permanent magnets appropriate magnets according to the specifications are used for key parts of various electric devices in addition to various motors such as VCM, spindle motor, measuring instrument, speaker, medical MRI and the like.
- magnets contain a large amount of Fe or Co and rare earth elements.
- Fe and Co contribute to an increase in saturation magnetic flux density.
- rare earth elements bring about a very large magnetic anisotropy derived from the behavior of 4f electrons in the crystal field, thereby contributing to an increase in coercive force and realizing good magnet characteristics.
- motors are especially attracting attention from the viewpoint of energy saving.
- the loss can be greatly reduced compared to the conventional induction type, and therefore, it is spreading as an energy saving technology for various uses such as in-vehicle and home appliance applications.
- a surface magnet type permanent magnet motor in which a permanent magnet is attached to the outer periphery of a rotor core
- an embedded type permanent magnet motor in which a permanent magnet is embedded in the rotor core.
- An embedded permanent magnet motor is suitable for the variable speed drive motor.
- FIG. 1 11 is a rotor, 12 is a rotor core, and 14 is a high coercivity permanent magnet.
- a rectangular cavity is provided in the outer peripheral portion of the rotor core 12 by the same number as the number of poles.
- the rotor 11 shown in FIG. 1 is a four-pole rotor 11.
- the rotor core 12 is provided with four cavities, and permanent magnets 14 are inserted into the cavities.
- the permanent magnet 14 is magnetized in the direction perpendicular to the radial direction of the rotor or the side (long side in FIG. 1) facing the air gap surface in the rectangle of the cross section of the permanent magnet 14.
- the permanent magnet 14 is mainly an NdFeB permanent magnet having a high coercive force so as not to be demagnetized by a load current.
- the rotor core 12 is formed by laminating electromagnetic steel plates punched out of cavities.
- An example of such a motor is a permanent magnet type reluctance type rotating electrical machine described in JP-A-11-136912 (Patent Document 1).
- the flux linkage of permanent magnets is always generated at a constant rate. For this reason, the induced voltage by a permanent magnet becomes high in proportion to a rotational speed. When driving while changing the magnetization from low speed to high speed, the induced voltage by the permanent magnet becomes extremely high at high speed rotation. As a result, the induced voltage by the permanent magnet is applied to the electronic component of the inverter, and when the voltage exceeds the withstand voltage of the electronic component, the component breaks down. For this reason, it is conceivable to perform a design in which the amount of magnetic flux of the permanent magnet is reduced so as to be equal to or lower than the withstand voltage, but the output and efficiency in the low speed region of the permanent magnet type rotating electrical machine are reduced.
- the interlinkage magnetic flux of the permanent magnet decreases due to the demagnetizing field of the d-axis current, the decrease of the interlinkage magnetic flux creates a margin of voltage with respect to the upper limit voltage. Since the current can be increased, the output in the high speed region increases. Further, the rotational speed can be increased by the voltage margin, and the range in which the operation can be performed while changing the magnetization is expanded.
- the demagnetizing field due to the d-axis current generates a harmonic magnetic flux, and the increase in voltage generated by the harmonic magnetic flux or the like is weakened, creating a limit of voltage reduction by the magnetic flux control. Therefore, even if the flux-weakening control is applied to the embedded permanent magnet type rotating electric machine, it is difficult to operate at a variable speed that is three times or more the base speed. Furthermore, the iron loss is increased by the harmonic magnetic flux, and vibration is generated by the electromagnetic force generated by the harmonic magnetic flux.
- an embedded permanent magnet motor when applied to a hybrid vehicle drive motor, the motor is rotated when driven by the engine alone. At medium / high speed rotation, the induced voltage of the motor's permanent magnet exceeds the power supply voltage, and the d-axis current continues to flow under the flux-weakening control. In this state, since the motor generates only a loss, the overall operation efficiency is deteriorated. The d-axis current continues to flow, leading to a decrease in efficiency.

- a low coercive force magnet is an alnico magnet or an FeCrCo magnet.
- Patent Document 2 shows an Alnico magnet (AlNiCo) or FeCrCo magnet as a low coercivity permanent magnet and an NdFeB magnet as a high coercivity permanent magnet.
- the coercive force (magnetic field at which the magnetic flux density becomes 0) of the Alnico magnet is 60 to 120 kA / m. It becomes 1/15 to 1/8 with respect to the coercive force of 950 kA / m of the NdFeB magnet.
- the coercive force of the FeCrCo magnet is about 60 kA / m, which is 1/15 of the coercive force of the NdFeB magnet of 950 kA / m.
- Alnico magnets and FeCrCo magnets have considerably lower coercivity than NdFeB high coercivity magnets. Using this low coercive force, a motor capable of changing the magnetization state of all or part of permanent magnets is produced.
