MOTOR UNIT - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240178714 titled 'MOTOR UNIT
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a motor unit with a unique first busbar design that includes a reinforced section where the thickness varies along the width direction.
- Rotor supported rotatably
- Stator core facing the rotor in a radial direction
- Stator coil on the stator core
- First busbar with a plate shape, base end connected to the stator coil, and a distal end with a connection terminal
- Linear section extending along a straight line
- Reinforced section in the linear section where the thickness varies along the width direction
Potential Applications
The motor unit described in the patent application could be used in various applications such as electric vehicles, industrial machinery, and household appliances.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of efficiently conducting electricity within a motor unit while maintaining structural integrity and reducing the risk of overheating.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved performance, increased efficiency, and enhanced durability of the motor unit.
Potential Commercial Applications
Potential commercial applications for this technology include electric vehicle manufacturing, industrial automation, and consumer electronics production.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be similar motor units with busbars, but without the specific design of a reinforced section where the thickness varies along the width direction.
Unanswered Questions
How does the reinforced section impact the overall performance of the motor unit?
The reinforced section likely helps to distribute current more evenly and reduce the risk of overheating, but specific performance data would be needed to fully understand its impact.
Are there any limitations to the design of the first busbar with the reinforced section?
It would be important to know if there are any size constraints or manufacturing challenges associated with implementing this design in different motor units.
Original Abstract Submitted
a motor unit disclosed herein may comprise: a rotor supported rotatably; a stator core facing the rotor in a radial direction; a stator coil disposed on the stator core; and a first busbar having a plate shape and including a base end connected to the stator coil and a distal end including a connection terminal. the first busbar may include a linear section extending along a straight line. the linear section of the first busbar may include a reinforced section where a thickness direction of the first busbar varies along a width direction of the first busbar.
