Motor

Abstract

One embodiment relates to a motor comprising: a housing; a stator disposed in the housing; a rotor disposed in the stator; a shaft coupled to the rotor; a cover disposed on the housing; and an upper bearing disposed on the cover. The cover comprises: a first body having the upper bearing disposed thereon; a second body disposed on the lower side of the first body; a third body disposed on the lower side of the second body; and a protrusion part protruding in the radial direction from the outer peripheral surface of the second body, wherein the third body comprises an inclined surface inclining inwardly with respect to the outer peripheral surface of the second body. Accordingly, when a system and the motor are combined, the motor prevents an increase in the amount of interference between the housing and the cover by means of a reaction force design between the cover and each of the housing and the bearing, and thus a coupling failure in the assembly, as a result of a reaction force, occurring when the system and the motor are coupled may be prevented.

(22) FIG. 2 is a perspective view illustrating a motor according to an embodiment, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the motor according to the embodiment. Here, FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along line A-A of FIG. 2. In addition, an x-direction of FIG. 3 denotes a shaft direction, and a y-direction denotes a radial direction. In addition, a reference numeral C denotes a center of the motor 1.

(23) Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, a motor 1 according to the embodiment may include a housing 100, a cover 200 disposed on the housing 100, an upper bearing 300 disposed above the cover 200, a stator 400 disposed in the housing 100, a rotor 500 disposed inside the stator 400, and a shaft 600 coupled to the rotor 500. In addition, the motor 1 may include a commutator 700 coupled to the shaft 600, a brush 800 of which one side comes into contact with the commutator 700, and a lower bearing 900. In this case, the term “inside” denotes a direction toward a center C of the motor 1 in the radial direction, and the term “outside” denotes a direction opposite to “inside.”

(24) The motor 1 may be a motor used in an electronic power steering (EPS) system. The EPS system may assist a steering force using a driving force of the motor to secure turning stability and quickly provide a restoring force of a vehicle. Accordingly, a driver of the vehicle can safely travel. Alternatively, the motor 1 may be a motor used in an anti-lock brake system (ABS). That is, the shaft 600 in the motor 1 may be connected to a brake system of a vehicle to transmit a force for controlling a braking force so as to solve an unstable steering problem generated when a brake pedal is pressed while the vehicle is running.

(25) The housing 100, the cover 200, and the upper bearing 300 may form an exterior of the motor 1. In this case, the cover 200 may be disposed to cover an open upper portion of the housing 100.

(26) An accommodation space may be formed by coupling of the housing 100 and the cover 200 therein. In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 3, the stator 400, the rotor 500, the shaft 600, the commutator 700, and the like may be disposed in the accommodation space.

(27) The housing 100 may accommodate the stator 400, the rotor 500, and the like therein. In this case, a shape or material of the housing 100 may be variously changed. For example, the housing 100 may be formed of a metal material which withstands even high temperatures well.

(28) Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, the housing 100 may include a housing body 110 and a plurality of protrusions 120 disposed inside the housing body 110. In this case, the housing body 110 and the protrusions 120 may be integrally formed.

(29) The housing body 110 may be formed in a cylindrical shape. In addition, the stator 400, the rotor 500, and the like may be disposed in the housing body 110.

(30) In addition, the lower bearing 900 may be disposed on a bottom surface of the housing body 110. In this case, the housing body 110 may include a housing protrusion 111 protruding from the bottom surface in the shaft direction to arrange the lower bearing 900. Accordingly, an outer circumferential surface of the lower bearing 900 disposed on an outer circumferential surface of a lower side of the shaft 600 may be supported by the housing protrusion 111.

(31) When the housing 100 and the cover 200 are coupled, the protrusions 120 may support the cover 200. Accordingly, a preset height of the cover 200 in the shaft direction is maintained due to the protrusions 120 so that the cover 200 may be disposed on the housing 100.

(32) The protrusion 120 may be formed to protrude from an inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing body 110 in the radial direction. In addition, the protrusion 120 may include an upper surface 121.

(33) In addition, at least three protrusions 120 may be disposed on the housing body 110 in a circumferential direction at the same intervals. That is, since the protrusions 120 of the housing 100 are coupled to the cover 200 at at least three points and support a lower portion side of the cover 200, shaking of the cover 200 in the shaft direction is prevented or minimized.

(34) In addition, since at least three protrusions 120 are disposed on the housing body 110 in the circumferential direction at the same intervals, a concentric state of the housing 100 and the cover 200 may be maintained.

(35) Meanwhile, the protrusion 120 may protrude due to an embo process. That is, a force may be applied to an outer side of the housing body 110 so that the protrusion 120 may protrude inward from the housing body 110.

(36) The cover 200 may be disposed on an open surface of the housing 100, that is, the upper portion of the housing 100, to cover the housing 100. In this case, the cover 200 may be coupled to the upper portion of the housing 100 in a press-fitting manner. In this case, the cover 200 may be formed of a synthetic resin material such as plastic.

(37) In addition, a lower portion of the cover 200 may be supported by the protrusion 120 of the housing 100. In addition, a hole may be formed in a central portion of the cover 200 to arrange the shaft 600. In this case, the shaft 600 may be disposed in the hole.

(38) FIG. 5 is a perspective view illustrating the cover of the motor according to the embodiment, FIG. 6 is a bottom perspective view illustrating the cover of the motor according to the embodiment, FIG. 7 is a plan view illustrating the cover of the motor according to the embodiment, FIG. 8 is a front view illustrating the cover of the motor according to the embodiment, FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view illustrating the cover of the motor according to the embodiment, and FIG. 10 is an enlarged view illustrating region A1 of FIG. 9. FIG. 9 is a cross-sectional view taken along line B-B of FIG. 7.

(39) Referring to FIGS. 5 to 9, the cover 200 may include a first body 210 in which the upper bearing 300 is disposed, a second body 220 disposed under the first body 210, a third body 230 disposed under the second body 220, and a protrusion 240 protruding from an outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220 in the radial direction. In addition, the cover 200 may further include a second groove 250. In this case, the first body 210, the second body 220, the third body 230, and the protrusion 240 may be integrally formed.

(40) The upper bearing 300 is disposed at a central portion of an upper portion of the first body 210. For example, a first groove 211 may be concavely formed at a central portion of the first body 210 in the shaft direction. In addition, the upper bearing 300 is disposed on the first groove 211. In this case, the upper bearing 300 may be coupled to the first groove 211 in a press-fitting manner.

(41) The first groove 211 may be disposed adjacent to an outer side of the hole.

(42) Referring to FIG. 3, an inner surface 211a of the first body 210 forming the first groove 211 may have a first angle θ1 with respect to an outer circumferential surface 310 of the upper bearing 300.

(43) Referring to FIG. 9, the inner surface 211a of the first body 210 may have the first angle θ1 with respect to a virtual line L1 disposed parallel to the center C of the shaft 600. For example, the inner surface 211a of the first body 210 may be provided as an inclined surface. In this case, the inner surface 211a of the first body 210 may be referred to as a first inclined surface.

(44) When the upper bearing 300 is disposed in the first groove 211, a lower side of the upper bearing 300 is in contact with the inner surface 211a, but an upper side thereof does not come into contact with the inner surface 211a. That is, an upper portion side of the outer circumferential surface 310 of the upper bearing 300 is disposed to be spaced apart from the inner surface 211a.

(45) In this case, the first angle θ1 may be in the range of 2.5° to 3.5°. However, when the system 40 presses the upper bearing 300, the first angle θ1 may be decreased by about 1° with respect to the outer circumferential surface 310 of the upper bearing 300.

(46) Accordingly, since the inner surface 211a of the first body 210 is formed to have a predetermined inclination with respect to the outer circumferential surface 310 of the upper bearing 300, even when the upper bearing 300 is pressed by the system 40 in the shaft direction, an increase in the amount of interference due to a reaction force between the upper bearing 300 and the inner surface 211a of the cover 200 may be avoided.

(47) Meanwhile, the upper bearing 300 may be disposed to be spaced apart from a bottom surface 211b of the first groove 211. In addition, an elastic member (not shown) such as a washer may be disposed between the bottom surface 211b of the first groove 211 and the upper bearing 300. Accordingly, even when the upper bearing 300 is pressed by the system 40 in the shaft direction, the elastic member may elastically support the upper bearing 300.

(48) In addition, as illustrated in FIGS. 3 and 9, rounding may be performed on a corner at which the inner surface 211a meets the bottom surface 211b.

(49) Referring to FIG. 6, the brush 800 and the like may be disposed under the first body 210.

(50) In addition, an outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 may be disposed further inward than the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. As illustrated in FIG. 7, the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 may be disposed to be spaced apart from the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220 by a predetermined distance D1 in the radial direction. That is, a radius of the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 is less than a radius of the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220.

(51) Accordingly, a sealing member 1000 may be disposed between the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 and the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. In this case, the sealing member 1000 may be disposed above the second body 220. Accordingly, the motor 1 may include the sealing member 1000 disposed between the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100 and the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 of the cover 200.

(52) In this case, the sealing member 1000 may be formed of a rubber material, and a cross section thereof may be formed to have an ‘X’ or ‘D’ shape. In the case in which the cross section has the ‘X’ shape, end points forming the ‘X’ shape are in contact with the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210 and the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. In addition, in the case in which the sealing member 1000 is formed in the ‘D’ shape, when one portion including a curvature is disposed to be in contact with the outer circumferential surface 212 of the first body 210, and the other portion is disposed to be in contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100, an effect in which a foreign material is prevented from being introduced may be further achieved. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, an O-ring may also be disposed as the sealing member 1000.

(53) Accordingly, the sealing member 1000 may prevent liquid such as water from being introduced into the motor 1.

(54) The second body 220 may be disposed under the first body 210. In this case, the second body 220 may be formed in a disc shape in which a hole is formed in a central portion thereof but is not necessarily limited thereto.

(55) Referring to FIG. 10, the second body 220 may include a first region 222 extending from an edge of a lower side of the first body 210 in the radial direction and a second region 223 extending in the shaft direction. For example, the second body 220 may be formed to have a cross section in a “1” shape.

(56) Accordingly, the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220 may be an outer circumferential surface of the second region 223. In addition, the sealing member 1000 may be disposed on the first region 222.

(57) The third body 230 may be disposed under the second body 220.

(58) Referring to FIG. 9, the third body 230 may extend from an end portion of a lower portion side of the second body 220 in the shaft direction. Specifically, the third body 230 may extend downward from the second region 223 of the second body 220.

(59) As illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10, the third body 230 may include an inclined surface 231 inclined inward with respect to the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the inclined surface 231 may be disposed to be spaced apart from the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. In this case, the inclined surface 231 may be referred to as a second inclined surface.

(60) The inclined surface 231 may have a third angle θ3 with respect to the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. In this case, the third angle θ3 may be in the range of 4° to 5.5°. However, when the system 40 presses the upper bearing 300, the third angle θ3 may be decreased by about 1° with respect to the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. Accordingly, the third angle θ3 may be formed to have 3° to 4.5°.

(61) Accordingly, since the inclined surface 231 is formed to have a predetermined inclination with respect to the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220, even when the upper bearing 300 is pressed by the system 40 in the shaft direction, the inclined surface 231 does not come into contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. Accordingly, due to the inclined surface 231, an increase in the amount of interference due to a reaction force between the housing 100 and the inner surface 211a of the cover 200 may be avoided.

(62) In addition, since the inclined surface 231 extends from a lower side of a second surface 242 to form the third angle θ3, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force between the housing 100 and the inner surface 211a of the cover 200 may be further avoided.

(63) The protrusion 240 may protrude outward from the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. In addition, the protrusion 240 may be in contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100.

(64) Referring to FIG. 10, a width W1 of the protrusion 240 in the shaft direction is less than a width W2 of the second body 220 in the shaft direction. In this case, the width W1 of the protrusion 240 in the shaft direction may be 0.7 to 0.8 times the width W2 of the second body 220 in the shaft direction.

(65) The protrusion 240 may include a first surface 241 in contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100 and the second surface 242 inclined inward from a lower side of the first surface 241.

(66) The first surface 241 may be disposed on the second surface 242. In addition, the first surface 241 may be disposed to be spaced outward from the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. Accordingly, when the housing 100 and the cover 200 are coupled, the first surface 241 may be in contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100.

(67) Referring to FIG. 7, the first surface 241 may include a curved surface 241a formed to be disposed in a central portion thereof. In this case, a curvature of the curved surface 241a may be the same as a curvature of the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. Accordingly, when the housing 100 and the cover 200 are coupled, the curved surface 241a may be in contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. A contact amount between the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100 and the cover 200 may be decreased due to the curved surface 241a.

(68) As illustrated in FIG. 7, a width W3 of the curved surface 241a may be 0.67 to 1.00 times a width W4 of the protrusion 240 in the circumferential direction. In this case, the width W4 of the protrusion 240 may be a width of the first surface 241 in the circumferential direction.

(69) The second surface 242 may have a second angle θ2 with respect to the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220. In this case, the second angle θ2 may be in the range of 7° to 32°. In addition, the second surface 242 may be referred to as a fourth inclined surface.

(70) However, when the system 40 presses the upper bearing 300, the second angle θ2 may be decreased by about 1° with respect to the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100.

(71) Accordingly, since the second surface 242 is formed to have a predetermined inclination with respect to the outer circumferential surface 221 of the second body 220 and disposed further inward than the first surface 241, even when the upper bearing 300 is pressed by the system 40 in the shaft direction, the second surface 242 does not come into contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. Accordingly, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force between the housing 100 and the inner surface 211a of the cover 200 may be avoided due to the second surface 242.

(72) The second groove 250 may be formed in a lower side of the cover 200.

(73) The second groove 250 may be concavely formed in an outer circumferential surface of the third body 230 in the radial direction. Accordingly, the protrusion 120 of the housing 100 may be disposed in the second groove 250.

(74) In this case, the second groove 250 may include an inclined surface formed in order to prevent interference with the protrusion 120. In this case, the inclined surface forming the second groove 250 may be referred to as a third inclined surface. As illustrated in FIG. 3, the third inclined surface and an inner surface of the protrusion 120 may form a fourth angle. Accordingly, due to the third inclined surface, the inner surface of the protrusion 120 is disposed to be spaced apart from the third inclined surface.

(75) Due to the coupling of the protrusion 120 and the second groove 250, the movement of the cover 200 may be prevented in the circumferential direction.

(76) When the protrusion 120 and the second groove 250 are coupled, the upper surface 121 of the protrusion 120 may be in contact with a lower surface of the second body 220.

(77) Since the cover 200 is supported by the protrusion 120, the cover 200 may be disposed at a preset position with respect to the housing 100 in the shaft direction.

(78) However, since an edge of the lower portion side of the cover 200 is supported by the protrusion 120, when the system 40 presses the upper bearing 300, a bending phenomenon may occur in which a central portion of the cover 200 is bent inward in the shaft direction.

(79) However, in the motor 1, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force may be avoided due to the inner surface 211a, which is formed to have the first angle θ1, of the cover 200, the second surface 242, which is formed to have the second angle θ2, of the cover 200, and the inclined surface 231 formed to have the third angle θ3 even when the upper bearing 300 is pressed.

(80) FIG. 11 is a view illustrating a state in which the bearing of the motor according to the embodiment is pressed.

(81) Referring to FIG. 11, when the system 40 presses the upper bearing 300, the first angle θ1 may become a first-1 angle θ1-1 which is decreased from the first angle θ1 by about 1° with respect to the outer circumferential surface 310 of the upper bearing 300. However, since the upper side of the upper bearing 300 does not come into contact with the inner surface 211a, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force may be avoided.

(82) In addition, the second angle θ2 may become a second-1 angle θ2-1 which is decreased from the second angle θ2 by about 1° with respect to the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. However, since the second surface 242 does not come into contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force may be avoided.

(83) In addition, the third angle θ3 may become a third-1 angle θ3-1 which is decreased from the second angle θ2 by about 1° with respect to the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100. However, since the inclined surface 231 does not come into contact with the inner circumferential surface 112 of the housing 100, the increase in the amount of interference due to the reaction force may be avoided.

(84) As illustrated in FIG. 3, the upper bearing 300 may be disposed on an outer circumferential surface of an upper portion side of the shaft 600. In this case, the upper bearing 300 may be supported by the cover 200.

(85) The stator 400 electrically interacts with the rotor 500 to induce rotation of the rotor 500. The stator 400 is coupled to an inside of the housing 100. In addition, the stator 400 may include a plurality of magnets. The magnets generate a rotating magnetic field with a coil wound around the rotor 500. In each of the magnets, an N-pole and an S-pole may be alternately disposed around the center C in the circumferential direction.

(86) Meanwhile, the stator 400 may include a stator core in order to arrange the magnet but is not necessarily limited thereto. The stator core may be manufactured by coupling a plurality of divided cores or manufactured in a single core form formed as one barrel.

(87) The rotor 500 is disposed inside the stator 400. That is, the stator 400 may be disposed outside the rotor 500.

(88) The rotor 500 may include a rotor core and the coil. The rotor core may be formed in a form in which a plurality of thin steel plates are stacked but is not necessarily limited thereto. For example, the rotor core may also be formed as one single product.

(89) A plurality of teeth may be formed to protrude from an outer circumferential surface of the rotor core. The tooth may be disposed to protrude in the radial direction from a center of the rotor 500. In this case, the tooth may be disposed to face the magnet. In addition, the coil is wound around each of the teeth. In this case, an insulator may be installed on the tooth. The insulator insulates the stator core from the coil.

(90) When a current is supplied to the coil, an electrical interaction is induced between the coil and the magnet so that the rotor 500 may be rotated. In the case in which the rotor 500 is rotated, the shaft 600 is also rotated with the rotor 5000. In this case, the shaft 600 may be supported by the upper bearing 300 and the lower bearing 900.

(91) The commutator 700 is coupled to the shaft 600. In addition, the commutator 700 may be disposed above the rotor 500. In addition, the commutator 700 is electrically connected to the coil of the rotor 500.

(92) The brush 800 may be disposed under the cover 200. To this end, the motor 1 may include a brush holder. In this case, the brush 800 may be disposed in the brush holder.

(93) In addition, an elastic member (not shown) such as a spring is disposed in the brush holder to press one side of the brush 800. Accordingly, the other side of the brush 800 is in contact with the commutator 700.

(94) In addition, the motor 1 includes a terminal, a connector, a choke coil, a capacitor, and the like to allow power supplied from an external power device to be supplied to the brush 800.

(95) While the invention has been shown and described with reference to the exemplary embodiments thereof, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
