Definitions
- the present invention relates to an electric motor and to an electric device including the electric motor.
- the present invention relates more particularly to an electric motor improved to suppress the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion in the bearing and to an electric device including the electric motor.
- an electric motor has been driven, using an inverter of a pulse width modulation system (hereinafter, referred to as a PWM system), in many cases.
- a PWM system pulse width modulation system
- the neutral point potential of the winding is not zero, which causes a potential difference between the outer ring and the inner ring of the bearing (hereinafter, referred to as a shaft voltage).
- the shaft voltage includes a high-frequency component caused by switching.
- the power supply circuit of the driving circuit (including a control circuit) for driving the electric motor, using an inverter of the PWM system, is electrically insulated from the primary circuit of the power supply circuit and the ground earth on the primary circuit side.
- the conventional measures considered to suppress electrolytic corrosion are as follows: (1) Providing electrical continuity between the bearing inner ring and the bearing outer ring; (2) Providing electrical insulation between the bearing inner ring and the bearing outer ring; and (3) Reducing the shaft voltage. Examples of the specific methods for (1) include using a conductive lubricant in the bearing.
- the conductive lubricant has conductivity deteriorated with a lapse of time, and lacks sliding reliability.
- a method for disposing brushes on the rotary shaft to provide electrical continuity is considered.
- this method produces brush abrasion powder and requires a space.
- Examples of the specific methods for (2) include changing the iron balls in the bearing to non-conductive ceramic balls. This method is highly effective in suppressing electrolytic corrosion, but takes high cost. Thus, this method cannot be used for general-purpose electric motors.
- the following method is conventionally known. A stator iron core and a conductive bracket are short-circuited to change the capacitance and to reduce the shaft voltage (see Patent Literature 1, for example).
- Z is an impedance
- j is an imaginary number
- w is an angular frequency
- C is a capacitance
- R is a resistance.
- an electric motor that is used in a washing machine or a dish washer/dryer, for example, installed in a wet place, and thus can cause electric shock requires independent insulation (hereinafter, referred to as additional insulation), besides the insulation in the charge part (basic insulation).
- additional insulation independent insulation
- an electric motor that is used in those except the above electric appliances e.g. an air-conditioner indoor unit, air-conditioner outdoor unit, hot water supplier, and air cleaner, does not cause electric shock and thus requires no additional insulation. For this reason, in an electric motor used in an air-conditioner indoor unit, air-conditioner outdoor unit, hot water supplier, and air cleaner, its rotor does not have an insulated structure.
- the impedance of the rotor side (bearing inner-ring side) is in a low state.
- the stator side (bearing outer-ring side) has an insulated structure, and thus the impedance is in a high state.
- the potential on the bearing inner-ring side is high
- the potential on the bearing outer-ring side is low.
- This unbalanced state can generate a high shaft voltage.
- Such a high shaft voltage can cause electrolytic corrosion in the bearing.
- the stator iron core and the bracket are short-circuited so that the capacitance component between them is eliminated.
- the following case can be considered: when the impedance is unbalanced by the use environment of the electric motor, or variations in the assembling accuracy of the stator and the rotor, the shaft voltage increases on the contrary, which facilitates the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion.
- the power supply circuit of the driving circuit including a control circuit for driving the electric motor, using an inverter of the PWM system, is electrically insulated from the primary circuit of the power supply circuit and the ground earth on the primary circuit side.
- the present invention is directed to provide an electric motor capable of suppressing the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion in the bearing, and an electric device including the electric motor.
- the electric motor of the present invention has the following elements: a stator having a stator iron core, the stator iron core having a winding wound thereon; a rotor having the following elements: a rotating body holding a permanent magnet in the circumferential direction so that the permanent magnet faces the stator; and a shaft having the rotating body fastened thereto so as to penetrate through the center of the rotating body; a bearing for journaling the shaft rotatably; and a bracket for fixing the bearing.
- the rotating body has the following elements: an outer iron core forming an outer peripheral part of the rotating body; an inner iron core forming an inner peripheral part fastened to the shaft; and a dielectric layer disposed between the outer iron core and the inner iron core.
- Each of the outer iron core and the inner iron core is formed by laminating steel sheets.
- the high-frequency potentials on the bearing inner-ring side and the bearing outer-ring side can be equalized and balanced. Since the potential difference between the inner ring and the outer ring of the bearing can be reduced, the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion in the bearing caused by high-frequency waves resulting from PWM, for example, can be suppressed. Further, the capacitance can be varied by changing the width or material of the dielectric layer. Thus, the impedance of the rotor side can be set optimally.
- the dielectric layer indicates a layer for intentionally changing the dielectric constant and thickness of a dielectric, or the surface area of a conductor (electrode) in contact with the dielectric.
- the dielectric layer is intended to serve as if it is a dielectric element interposed between the shaft and the rotating body.
- the electric device of the present invention includes the above electric motor. As described above, in the electric motor of the present invention, the impedance of the rotor side (bearing inner-ring side) is increased so as to approximate to the impedance of the stator side (bearing outer-ring side). Thus, the high-frequency potentials on the bearing inner-ring side and the bearing outer-ring side can be balanced. Therefore, the present invention can provide an electric motor capable of suppressing the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion in the bearing and having high productivity and reliability, and an electric device including the electric motor.

- stator iron core 11 is molded with insulating resin 13, as a mold material, together with other members to be fixed. In this exemplary embodiment, these members are integrally molded in this manner, to form stator 10 having a substantially cylindrical contour.
- rotor 14 On the inner side of stator 10, rotor 14 is disposed with a clearance provided between them.
- Rotor 14 has a disc-shaped rotating body 30 including rotor iron core 31, and has shaft 16 having rotating body 30 fastened thereto so as to penetrate through the center of rotating body 30.
- Rotating body 30 holds magnet 32, i.e. a permanent magnet, such as a ferrite resin magnet, in the circumferential direction so that the magnet faces the inner peripheral side of stator 10.
- Rotor iron core 31 is formed by laminating steel sheets.
- rotating body 30 is structured to have outer iron core 31a, dielectric layer 50, and inner iron core 31b in this order from magnet 32 in the outermost peripheral part toward shaft 16 on the inner peripheral side.
- Outer iron core 31a forms the outer peripheral part of rotor iron core 31;
- inner iron core 31b forms the inner peripheral part of rotor iron core 31.
- Fig. 1 shows a structural example of rotating body 30 integrally formed of these rotor iron core 31, dielectric layer 50, and magnet 32. In this manner, the inner peripheral side of stator 10 faces the outer peripheral side of rotating body 30.
- Two bearings 15 for journaling shaft 16 are attached to shaft 16 of rotor 14.
- Each of bearings 15 is a bearing including a plurality of iron balls.
- connection line 20 including lead wires for applying the power supply voltage of the winding, the power supply voltage of the control circuit, and the control voltage for controlling the number of rotations, and the ground wire of the control circuit, is connected to printed circuit board 18.

That is, these power supply circuits, for example, are electrically insulated from any of the primary (power supply) circuit with respect to the power supply circuit for supplying the power supply voltage of the winding, the primary (power supply) circuit with respect to the power supply circuit for supplying the power supply voltage of the control circuit, the ground earth connected to these primary (power supply) circuits, and independently grounded earth.
- Fig. 2 is a diagram schematically showing an essential part of the brushless motor of Fig. 1. As shown in Fig. 2, in rotating body 30, magnet 32 is formed in the outermost peripheral part.
- dielectric layer 50 is a layer formed of an insulating resin. In this exemplary embodiment, such dielectric layer 50 is formed to suppress electrolytic corrosion.
- rotating body 30 is integrally formed of magnet 32, outer iron core 31a, an insulating resin forming dielectric layer 50, and inner iron core 31b.
- rotating body 30 is fastened to shaft 16.
- dielectric layer 50 is a layer formed of an insulating resin, i.e.
- dielectric layer 50 is formed of an insulating resin having a predetermined dielectric constant, and high-frequency current can flow between outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b. If such dielectric layer 50 is not formed, the impedance between the bracket and the stator iron core is high and, in contrast, the impedance between the shaft electrically connected to the rotating body and the stator iron core is low, as described above. For example, PWM high-frequency current generated from the stator iron core, flows into the equivalent circuit having such impedance components. The high-frequency current can cause a potential difference between the outer ring electrically connected to the bracket and the shaft on the bearing inner-ring side.
- dielectric layer 50 shown in Fig. 2 is formed in the rotating body that has low impedance and is formed of the iron core only.
- the impedance of rotor 14 is increased so as to approximate to the impedance of the side of bracket 17. That is, forming dielectric layer 50 between outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b makes rotor 14 have a structure where the capacitance caused by dielectric layer 50 is equivalently series-connected.
- the impedance of rotor 14 can be increased.
- the increased impedance of rotor 14 increases the voltage drop in the high-frequency waves flowing from rotor 14 to shaft 16, thereby reducing the potential generated in shaft 16 by the high-frequency current.
- the potential difference caused by the high-frequency current between the outer ring of bearing 15 electrically connected to bracket 17 and shaft 16 on the inner-ring side of bearing 15 is reduced.
- the bearing inner ring and the bearing outer ring are balanced always at a low potential with a small potential difference.
- This state suppresses the occurrence of electrolytic corrosion in the bearing.
- the capacitance can be varied by changing the width or material of dielectric layer 50.
- the impedance of the side of rotor 14 can be set optimally.
- the capacitance caused by dielectric layer 50 can be reduced by the following method: reducing the dielectric constant of the insulating resin forming dielectric layer 50, increasing the thickness of the insulating resin (interelectrode distance), or reducing the electrode area, for example.
- the impedance of rotor 14 can be increased.
- dielectric layer 50 separates rotating body 30 into outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b.
- rotating body 30 can be formed without a shaft attached, and thus the productivity can be enhanced in comparison to the structure where the dielectric layer is formed between the shaft and the rotor iron core. Further, in the structure of Fig. 2, even shaft 16 of a different type can be fastened by caulking or press-fitting. Thus, this structure can facilitate the changeover of the types, and improve the productivity. Further, each of outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b is formed by laminating steel sheets. In this exemplary embodiment, such a structure enhances the joining strength in the joining surface between outer iron core 31a and dielectric layer 50 and the joining surface between inter iron core 31a and dielectric layer 50.

- dielectric layer 50 is formed of a resin, and thus has a certain degree of elasticity in comparison to steel sheets 311a and 311b.
- dielectric layer 50 wedges into the depressions formed between the steel sheets in joining surfaces 41 between the iron cores and dielectric layer 50, as shown in Fig. 3.
- This improves the adherence between outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b and dielectric layer 50, and enhances the joining strength.
- the detachment strength and the strength against axially-applied force can be enhanced.

- air hole parts 40 are formed in the thick portion of dielectric layer 50.
- the sink mark is a phenomenon such that the resin cooled and taken out is shrunken in comparison to its molten state during formation.
- the dielectric constant of air is approximately 1, and thus is extremely smaller than that of insulating resin. That is, forming an air layer or air hole in part of the insulating resin can reduce the capacitance.
- outer contact area Sa is an area of the contact part between dielectric layer 50 and outer iron core 31a in the portions where the distance between outer iron core 31a and inner iron core 31b in the radial direction is at the minimum.
