ROTATING ELECTRIC MACHINE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING ROTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18330464 titled 'ROTATING ELECTRIC MACHINE AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING ROTOR
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes a rotor for a rotating electric machine that includes a rotating shaft and a permanent magnet. The permanent magnet is covered by a sleeve attached to the rotating shaft, and a resin coating layer is formed on the outer surface of the sleeve. The resin coating layer has a base portion and multiple ridges, with a recessed riblet formed between the ridges.
- The rotor includes a rotating shaft and a permanent magnet.
- A sleeve is attached to the rotating shaft and covers the permanent magnet.
- A resin coating layer is formed on the outer surface of the sleeve.
- The resin coating layer has a base portion and multiple ridges.
- A riblet is formed between the ridges, recessed relative to them.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Electric motors in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing.
- Generators for renewable energy systems like wind turbines and hydroelectric plants.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides protection to the permanent magnet and enhances its durability.
- Reduces friction and drag on the rotor, improving overall efficiency.
- Prevents debris or foreign objects from getting stuck between the ridges.
Benefits of this technology:
- Increased lifespan and reliability of the rotor.
- Improved energy efficiency and reduced power consumption.
- Enhanced performance and reduced maintenance requirements.
Original Abstract Submitted
A rotor constituting a rotating electric machine includes a rotating shaft and a permanent magnet. A sleeve covering the outer surface of the permanent magnet is attached to the rotating shaft. A resin coating layer is formed on an outer circumferential wall of the sleeve. The resin coating layer includes a base portion and a plurality of ridges formed on the outer circumferential wall of the base portion. A riblet recessed relative to the plurality of ridges is formed between the plurality of ridges.
